II. PROBLEM SOLVING (5 points each item)
a. A ballon is filled with 2.0 liters of helium at 20ºC. The balloon is then heated to 80ºC while the
pressure remains constant. What is the new volume of the balloons?
b. A scuba diver’s tank contains 12 liters of air at a pressure of 200 atm. As the diver ascends, the
pressure decreases to 1 atm. Assuming the temperature remains constant, what is the new volume
of air in the tank?
c. A sample of oxygen gas (O₂) occupies a volume of 6.00 L at a certain temperature and pressure. If
the number of moles is increased from 0.250 moles to 0.750 moles while maintaining the same
temperature and pressure, what will be the new volume of the oxygen gas?
d. A balloon contains 0.50 moles of helium gas at a pressure of 1.0 atm and a temperature of 25°C.
What is the volume of the balloon? Assume ideal gas behavior.
Answer Key
5. (b.) Gas molecules have significant volume compared to the space between them.
6. (b.) increases
7. (b.) increases
8. (b.) increases
9. (b.) P₁ V₁ = P₂ V₂
PROBLEM SOLVING
Equation: PV = nRT
P = 1.0 atm
n = 0.50 moles
R = 0.0821 L·atm/mol·K
T = 25°C + 273.15 = 298.15 K
V=?
