A ballon used for sampling stratospheric ozone is filled with 150.0 kg of He. What is the volume of the balloon when, a. The balloon starts from a research station in Antartica at sea level where the barrometric pressure is 755 mmHg and the temperature is -25.0 °C. b. The balloon rises to 29,028 ft (8,848 m, the height of Mt Everest and about typical crusing altitude for a jet aircraft) the temperature is -70 °C and the pressure is 2.30x104 Pa. c. The balloon enters the stratosphere, at 65000 ft (20,000 m, crusing altutude for a U2 spy plane) the temperature is -70 °C and the pressure is 3.68x103 Pa.
