Question

A balloon contains 0.158 mol of gas and has a volume of 2.46 L.
If an additional 0.113 mol of gas is added to the balloon (at the
same temperature and pressure), what is its final volume?

Hello everyone today. We are being given a problem and asked to solve for it. A basketball initially has a volume of 4.18 l And contains .268 moles of gas. What would the volume of the basketball when .178 moles of gas is added to it at constant temperature and pressure with our given variables. We know that we are dealing with avocados law, which directly relates volume and the number of moles that we have. It states that our initial volume is proportional to our initial amount of moles equal to our final volume. Over our final number of moles. to solve for V two, we can rearrange this equation to look like V two is equal to the one times are into over in one. When it comes time to solve for our final number of moles, We simply have to take into and equal that 2.268 moles. And we add that to our other Number of mold, which is .178 And we get .446 moles for our volume. We simply take our initial volume which is 4.18 L. And we multiply that by each of these number of moles. So we do this by Our .446 moles that we calculated for into. And then we simply divide By our initial moles which was .268. This gives us the final volume of final volume of 6. L. I hope this helped. And until next time
