Type the correct answer in the box. Express your answer to two significant figures.
A scientist collects 0.24 mole of hydrogen gas in a balloon. The temperature of the hydrogen is 35°C, and the pressure in the
balloon is 1.05 atmospheres. What is the volume of the balloon?

Answer:

5.8 L

Explanation:

Assuming that the hydrogen gas in the balloon acts as an ideal gas, we can solve the problem by using the equation of state for an ideal gas:

[tex]pV=nRT[/tex]

where:

p is the pressure of the gas

V is its volume

n is the number of moles

R is the gas constant

T is the absolute temperature  of the gas

For the gas in this problem, we have:

p = 1.05 atm is the pressure

n = 0.24 mol is the number of moles

[tex]T=35^{\circ}C+273=308 K[/tex] is the temperature of the gas

[tex]R=0.082 L \cdot atm\cdot mol^{-1} K^{-1}[/tex] is the gas constant

And solving for V, we find the volume of the gas in liters:

[tex]V=\frac{nRT}{p}=\frac{(0.24)(0.082)(308)}{1.05}=5.8 L[/tex]

Answer:

Its 5.8 Litters.
