Aballoon was partially filled with helium gas at room temperature. it occupied 4.0 liters of volume at 700.0 mmhg atmospheric pressure. when the balloon was released, it traveled upward until it burst at 99 mmhg atmospheric pressure. (neglect any force exerted to stretch the rubber balloon.) what was the volume of the balloon when it burst? l

28.28 L.

Explanation:

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = 700.0 mm Hg, V₁ = 4.0 L.

at burst: P₂ = 99.0 mm Hg, V₂ = ??? L.

∴ V₂ = P₁V₁/P₂ = (700.0 mm Hg)(4.0 L)/(99.0 mm Hg) = 28.28 L.

c is having 4 valence electrons and is bonded to three hydrogens and one sulphur atom, therefore, the number of bond pair is equal to four. as all the valence electrons are used in forming the bonds so, there is no lone pair left on carbon.

s is having 6 valence electrons and is bonded to one other sulfur atom and one carbon atom, therefore, the number of bond pair is equal to 2. as only two valence electrons are used in forming the bonds so, four electrons are left. therefore, two lone pairs are present on s.
