The ideal gas law relates the pressure P, volume V, absolute temperature T, and amount of gas n. The law is nRT P = V where R is the gas constant. An engineer must design a large natural gas storage tank to be expandable to maintain the pressure constant at 2.2 atm. In December when the temperature is 4°F (-15°C), the volume of gas in the tank is 28 500 ft'. What will the volume of the same quantity of gas be in July when the temperature is 88°F (31°C)? (Hint: Use the fact that n, R, and P are constant in this problem. Note also that K =°C +273.2.)

(¦ Indicates a review question, which means it requires only a basic understanding of the material to answer. Questions without this designation typically require integrating or extending the concepts presented thus far.) . After sitting outside on a cold night, the pressure in the tires of your car is 26 psi. If you drive your vehicle to work, a distance of 2h miles, at highway speeds, would you expect the tire pressure to increase, decrease, or remain the same? Explain the rationale for your choice. Assume that me outside air temperature remains constant during your trip.
Please solve both subparts of the question below: Large helium-filled balloons are used to lift scientific equipment to high altitudes. a) What is the pressure, in atmospheres, inside such a balloon if it starts out at sea level with a pressure of one atmosphere and a temperature of 10.0°C and rises to an altitude where its volume is twenty times the original volume and its temperature is - 49.5°C ? b) What is the gauge pressure, in atmospheres, in the balloon then? (Assume the atmospheric pressure is constant.)

Using the combined gas law, calculate the following. Also, what other law could you have used to solve this problem? Use details to support your answer.Some teenagers think that their parents are “full of hot air.” Your mom inhales 4 liters of air with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius. Since you think she is full of hot air, this temperature must increase while the air is in her lungs. If this air heats up to 37 degrees Celsius, what is the new volume of the gas? (Note that 37 degrees Celsius is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, which is normal body temperature.) Remember to pay close attention to the units of temperature before beginning your calculations.
