В. A bubble of air is rising from the sea floor, from a depth of about 500 m. At this depth the pressure is 5.1*10° Pa (about 50.3 atm) and is at a temperature of about 7.0° C. It rises to the surface with the atmosphere, at a temperature of 20° C. If the bubble is observed to have a volume of 4 cm³ at the surface, what was its volume at the sea floor? Assume the number of moles of gas in the bubble is constant.

A worker pressurized a rigid pipe (with an inside diameter of 30 mm and length of 20 m)with dry air to check for leaks. The temperature and absolute pressure of the air in thepipe were 35°C and 205 kPa, respectively. After 24 hrs, the worker returns and finds outthat the absolute pressure drops to 183 kPa, while the air temperature inside the pipedecreases to 21°C. Has air leaked out of the pipe? If yes, calculate the mass of air thathas leaked out through the fittings. (Rair = 287.08 J / kgm K)
