Concept explainers
Interpretation: The number of moles of helium needs to be determined which is required to fill in the 10000 L balloon at 1 atm and 10 oC.
Concept Introduction: The ideal gas equation is represented as follows:
Here, P is pressure, V is volume, n is number of moles and T is temperature of the gas.
R is Universal gas constant with value
Answer to Problem 6E
Explanation of Solution
The ideal gas equation is represented as follows:
On rearranging,
First convert temperature from oC to K as follows:
Thus,
Putting the values to calculate the number of moles of gas as follows:
Thus, number of moles of helium gas is
