The number density of air in a child's balloon is roughly the same as sea level air, 1019 particles/cm3. If the balloon is now 26 cm in diameter, to what diameter (in km) would it need to expand to make the gas inside have the same number density as the ISM, about 1 particle/cm3?
Answer in Km
You have a container of fixed volume (10 liters) and gas molecules (1 mole) at a pressure of 50 lb/in2.
The original temperature of the gas is the container is 20 oC. If the temperature is increased to 51 oC, what is the pressure of the gas in the container?
Give your answers in lb/in2 to one decimal place.
Pl:6: this was all information that was given to me. If need i would need to look it up online.
