While sitting on a hot 98 °C runway, some of the fuel in a plane's fuel tank evaporates and produces a pressure of 2.207 atm. Once the plane takes off and is flying at 36,000 ft, the fuel tank cools to -71 °C. What is the new pressure within the air tank if we assume to volume remains constant?

At 25.0 m below the surface of the sea, where the temperature is 5.00C, a diver exhales an air bubble having a volume of 1.00 cm3. If the surface temperature of the sea is 20.0C, what is the volume of the bubble just before it breaks the surface?
Most automobiles have a coolant reservoir to catch radiator fluid than may overflow when 1he engine is hot. A radiator is made of copper and is filled to its 16.0L capacity when at 10.0C. What volume of radiator fluid will overflow when the radiator and fluid reach their 95.0C operating temperature, given that the fluid’s volume coefficient of expansion is =400106/C ? Note that this coefficient is approximate, because most car radiators have operating temperatures of greater than 95.0C.

You buy an "airtight" bag of potato chips packaged at sea level, and take the chips on an airplane flight. When you take the potato chips out of your "carry-on" bag, you notice it has noticeably "puffed up." Airplane cabins are typically pressurized at 0.90 atm, and assuming the temperature inside an airplane is about the same as inside a potato chip processing plant, by what percentage has the bag "puffed up" in comparison to when it was packaged? Express your answer using two significant figures. (V2−V1)/V1= ?
