high-pressure gas cylinder contains 50.0 L of toxic gas at a pressure of 1.35 × 107 Pa and a temperature of 25.0°C. Its valve leaks after the cylinder is dropped. The cylinder is cooled to dry ice temperature (-78.5°C) to reduce the leak rate and pressure so that it can be safely repaired. A) what is the final pressure, in pascals, in the tank assuming negligible amount of gas leaks while being cooled and that there is no phase change ? B) What is the final pressure in pascals if one tenth of the gas escapes during the process? C) to what tempature in kelvins must tank be cooled from inital state to reduce the pressure to 1.00 atm (assuming the gas does not change phase and there is no leakage during cooling)?

A basketball is pressurized to a gauge pressure of PG = 75 kPa when at the surface of a swimming pool. (Patm = 101 kPa). The ball is then submerged in the pool of water which has a density ρ = 1000 kg/m3. Assume the ball does not change in mass, temperature, or volume as it is submerged. a) Calculate the absolute pressure inside the basketball in kPa when it is at the surface. b) Solve the pressure equation for the depth (in meters) at which the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the ball will become zero. At this depth the pressure inside the basketball is the same as the pressure outside the ball. c) At what depth, in meters, would the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the ball be zero if the ball were submerged in mercury (ρ = 13,500 kg/m3) instead of in water?

A hot air balloon uses the principle of buoyancy to create lift. By making the air inside the balloon less dense then the surrounding air, the balloon is able to lift objects many times its own weight. A large hot air balloon has a maximum balloon volume of 2660 m3. What is the density of air inside the balloon, in terms of the pressure P, temperature T, molar mass M, and the gas constant R? How much mass can this balloon lift (in addition to the mass of the gas inside) in terms the balloon volume Vb, the atmosphere air density ρa, the density of the air in the balloon ρg, and the gravitational acceleration g? If the air temperature in the balloon is 62 °C, how much additional mass, in kilograms, can the balloon lift? Assume the molar mass of air is 28.97 g/mol, the air density is 1.20 kg/m3, and the air pressure is 1 atm.

I've posted the below question earlier, and I received the answer. This is the question: A J-shaped tube is filled with air at 760 Torr and 22 °C. The long arm is closed off at the top and is 100.0 cm long; the short arm is 40.00 cm high. Mercury is poured through a funnel into the open end. When the mercury spills over the top of the short arm, what is the pressure on the trapped air? Let h be the length of mercury in the long arm. I need further explanation of one step: - when P2 is obtained in the short arm, the equation is 40-h+P1 1. How did we get this equation? 2. the short arm does not contain any air, why do we create an equation of P2 in the short arm? Please clarify these concerns. I have received the answer shown in the attached picture but it is not correct.
