Chapter 1, Problem 1.99ASP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The given volume of blimp has to be converted into liter.

Concept introduction:

• The conversional formula for volume in cubic foot into liter is,

$\text{1}{\text{ft}}^{\text{3}}\text{=}\text{28}\text{.3}\text{L}$

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mass of helium filled in the given blimp has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

• The relationship between density, mass and volume of a gas is,

$density(g/L)=\frac{mass(g)}{volume(L)}$

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mass of air filled in the given blimp has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

• The relationship between density, mass and volume of a gas is,

$density(g/L)=\frac{mass(g)}{volume(L)}$
