Let’s assume that you put a balloon into the freezer. Initially,the balloon had 3.0liters of gas at a pressure of 400kPa and was at a temperature f 294K. If the balloon is cooled to 277K and it’s volume decreased to 1L, what will the new pressure in the balloon be?

Respuesta :

Here, we should use combined gas law which can be derived from combined gas law, “PV=nRT”. Rearranging, we can get PV/T=nR. Then we can set the two states in the problem together to get

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Then just plug in and solve algebraically.

Hope this helps
