- Two identical He-filled balloons, each with a volume of 20 L, are allowed to rise into the atmosphere. One rises to an altitude of 3000 m while the other rises to 6000 m. a Assuming that the balloons are at the same temperature, which balloon has the greater volume? b What information would you need in order to calculate the volume of each of the balloons at their respective heights?arrow_forward109 An ore sample with a mass of 670 kg contains 27.7% magnesium carbonate, MgCO3. If all of the magnesium carbonate in this ore sample is decomposed to form carbon dioxide, describe how to determine what volume of CO2 is evolved during the process. What would have to be measured to predict the needed volume in advance?arrow_forwardMake the indicated pressure conversions. msp;a.1.54105Patoatmospheresb.1.21atmtopascalsc.97,345PatommHgd.1.32kPatopascalsarrow_forward
- A certain flexible weather balloon contains helium gas at a volume of 855 L. Initially, the balloon is at sea level where the temperature is 25C and the barometric pressure is 730 torr. The balloon then rises to an altitude of 6000 ft, where the pressure is 605 torr and the temperature is 15C. What is the change in volume of the balloon as it ascends from sea level to 6000 ft?arrow_forwardConsider these four gas samples, all at the same temperature. The larger boxes have twice the volume of the smaller boxes. Rank the gas samples with respect to: (a) pressure, (b) density, (c) average kinetic energy, and (d) average molecular speed. (Green spheres are He; violet spheres are Ne.)arrow_forwardCan the speed of a given molecule in a gas double at constant temperature? Explain your answer.arrow_forward
- Nitrogen monoxide gas reacts with oxygen gas to produce nitrogen dioxide gas. What volume of nitrogen dioxide is produced from the reaction of 1 L nitrogen monoxide gas with 3 L oxygen gas? What volume, if any, of the reactants will remain after the reaction ends? Assume all volumes are measured at the same pressure and temperature.arrow_forwardA balloon filled with helium gas is found to take 6 hours to deflate to 50% of its original volume. How long will it take for an identical balloon filled with the same volume of hydrogen gas (instead of helium) to decrease its volume by 50%?arrow_forwardA balloon inflated with three breaths of air has a volume of 1.7 L. At the same temperature and pressure, what is the volume of the balloon if five more same-sized breaths are added to the balloon?arrow_forward
