A balloon contains 1500 m3 of He at 27°C and 4 atmospheric pressure. the volume of He at -3°C temperature and 2 atmospheric pressure will be
  1. 1500 m3
  2. 1700 m3
  3. 1900 m3
  4. 2700 m3

Solution

The quantity of gas is same in both situations, therefore using the ideal gas equation, PV=nRT here, n is the number of moles of gas and R is the universal gas constant.

when pressure is P1=4 atm and temperature is T1=27°C=300 K then volume is V1=1500  m3 

P1V1T1=P2V2T21500×4300=V2×2270V2=2700 m3
