Question
Chapter 9, Problem 121QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for a change in the volume of weather balloon when the external pressure changes is to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Boyle’s law gives a relation between the volume and the pressure of the gas. When the temperature of a fixed amount of gas is constant, the volume of the gas is inversely proportional to the pressure of the gas.

What is the relationship between Weather Balloons and Boyle's law?
Weather balloons are only partially inflated before they are released into the air. Describe the changes that would occur as the balloon elevates, and explain why the balloon is not inflated fully
A weather balloon is inflated to a volume of 26.4 L at a pressure of 740. mmHg and a temperature of
27.1°C. The balloon rises in the atmosphere to an altitude where the pressure is 400. mmHg and the
temperature is -13.1 °C.
Assuming the balloon can freely expand, calculate the volume of the balloon at this altitude.
