A company advertises that it delivers helium at a gauge pressure of 1.72 × 10 7 Pa in a cylinder of volume 43.8 L. How many balloons can be inflated to a volume of 4.00 L with that amount of helium? Assume the pressure inside the balloons is 1.01 × 105 Pa and the temperature in the cylinder and the balloons is 25.0 °C .
An aluminum can is filled to the brim with a liquid. The can and the liquid are heated so their temperatures change by the same amount.
