The specific volume of a gas is 1.5 m3/kg. What volume (in m3 and answer should be in 2 decimal places) does 7.5 kg occupy? What is the density (in kg/m3 and answer should be in 3 decimal places) of the gas?
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 2090 m3
a. 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?
b. 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?
c. If the air temperature in the balloon is 54 °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.
At standard temperature and pressure, a gas has a density of 0.085 kg/m3. What volume (in m3) does 1.03 kg of hydrogen occupy at standard temperature and pressure
