In problem , the balloon reached an altitude of , where the pressure was and the temperature was . What was the volume, in liters, of the balloon at these conditions?
Indicate whether the final volume of gas in each of the following is the same, larger, or smaller than the initial volume, if pressure and amount of gas do not change:
a. A volume of of air on a cold winter day at is breathed into the lungs, where body temperature is
b. The heater used to heat the air in a hot-air balloon is turned off.
c. A balloon filled with helium at the amusement park is left in a car on a hot day.
Two flasks of equal volume and at the same temperature contain different gases. One flask contains . Is each of the following statements true or false? Explain.
a. Both flasks contain the same number of molecules.
b. The pressure in the the flasks are the same.
