A balloon is floating around outside your window. The temperature outside is -3 °C , and theair pressure is 0.800 atm. Your neighbor, who released the balloon, tells you that he filled itwith 4.40 moles of gas. What is the volume of gas inside this balloon?

Given: Temperature, T = -3oC = -3 + 273.15 = 270.15 K Pressure, P = 0.800 atm Moles, n = 4.40 mol

A 275-mL sample of CO gas is collected over water at 31C and 755 mmHg. If the temperature of the gas collection apparatus rises to 39C, what is the new volume of the sample? Assume that the barometric pressure does not change.
A gas effuses through an opening one-fifth as fast as helium gas effuses through the same opening. (a) Is the gas heavier than helium? (b) What is the molar mass of the gas?
A certain flexible weather balloon contains helium gas at a volume of 855 L. Initially, the balloon is at sea level where the temperature is 25C and the barometric pressure is 730 torr. The balloon then rises to an altitude of 6000 ft, where the pressure is 605 torr and the temperature is 15C. What is the change in volume of the balloon as it ascends from sea level to 6000 ft?
A large balloon contains 65.0 L of helium gas at 25 C and a pressure of 745 mm Hg. The balloon ascends to 3000 m, at which the external pressure has decreased by 30.%. What would be the volume of the balloon, assuming it expands so that the internal and external pressures are equal? (Assume the temperature is still 25 C.)
You have a helium balloon at 1.00 atm and 25C. You want to make a hot-air balloon with the same volume and same lift as the helium balloon. Assume air is 79.0% nitrogen and 21.0% oxygen by volume. The lift of a balloon is given by the difference between the mass of air displaced by the balloon and the mass of gas inside the balloon. a. Will the temperature in the hot-air balloon have to be higher or lower than 25C? Explain. b. Calculate the temperature of the air required for the hot- air balloon to provide the same lift as the helium balloon at 1.00 atm and 25C. Assume atmospheric conditions are 1.00 atm and 25C.
