on a ship sailing on pacific ocean where temperature is 23.4 centigrade , a balloon is filled with 2L air . what will be the volume of balloon when the ship reaches indian ocean where temperature is 26.1 centigrade ?
Let, V1 = 2 L
Given,
T1 = 23.4 °C or 296.4 K
T2 = 26.1 °C or 299.1 K
V2 be the volume at temperature T2
If the pressure remains constant, then apply Charle’s law:
V1/T1 = V2/T2
V2 = V1T2/T1 = 2 x 299.1 / 296.4
= 2.0182 L
