Question
Chapter 11, Problem 53E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Whether an astronaut uses a straw to drink a beverage on the moon, and the reason behind the answer is to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Pressure is the direct result of a constant collision between gas molecules and the surface around them. The pressure difference outside and inside the body causes many events, one of them is using a drinking straw.

What is natural gas and what are its constituents?
A small balloon made of a practically leakproof material is inflated with 4.31 L of helium in an indoor environment where the temperature is 24.5 °C. It is then taken outside for a winter carnival and when that is done, it contracts to a volume of 3.84 L. What is the outside temperature (in °C) based upon these data?
