The number of balloons that can be completely filled by emptying the helium cylinder is 406.

Number of balloons to be filled by the cylinder

The number of balloons to be filled by the cylinder is calculated by using general gas equation as shown below;

[tex]\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1} =n( \frac{P_2V_2}{T_2})[/tex]

where;

  • n is number of balloons
  • P1 = 850 psi  
  • P2 = 102.6 kPa = 14.88 psi
  • T1 = 28.5⁰C = 301.5 K
  • T2 = 14⁰C = 287 K

[tex]\frac{850 \times 28}{301.5} =n( \frac{14.88 \times 3.75}{287})\\\\78.94 = 0.194n\\\\n = 406[/tex]

Thus, the number of balloons that can be completely filled by emptying the helium cylinder is 406.
