A weather balloon is filled with helium that occupies a volume of 5.37 104 L at 0.995 atm and 32.0°C. After it is released, it rises to a location where the pressure is 0.720 atm and the temperature is -11.7°C. What is the volume of the balloon at that new location?

The new volume is 63583 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The initial volume of the balloon = 5.37 * 10^4 L

The initial pressure = 0.995 atm

The initial temperature = 32.0 °C = 305.15 K

The pressure decreased to 0.720 atm

The temperature decreased to -11.7 °C = 261.45 K

Step 2: Calculate the new volume

P1*V1 / T1 = P2*V2/T2

⇒with P1 = the initial pressure = 0.995 atm

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 5.37 *10^4 L

⇒with T1 = the initial temperature = 305.15 K

⇒with P2 = the decreased pressure = 0.720 atm

⇒with V2 = the new volume = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with T2 = the decreased temperature : 261.45 K

(0.995 * 5.37*10^4)/305.15 = (0.720 * V2) / 261.45

V2 = 63583 L

The new volume is 63583 L

more info ? ? i don't understand what the question is

explanation:

samuel de champlain. in 1608, king henry iv sponsored pierre dugua, sieur de mons and samuel de champlain as founders of the city of quebec with 28 men. this was the second permanent french settlement in the colony of canada.
