Assuming the balloon can freely expand, calculate the volume of the balloon at this altitude.arrow_forward6. The ideal gas law is a very simple mathematical relationship that relates several physical properties of a gas. This law is only valid when the behavior of a gas is idealized according to three principal assumptions. (i) State the three assumptions made about an ideal gas, and for each assumption (ii) explain which physical property of a gas would be affected if that assumption was not made.arrow_forward
