1. The inflated balloon that slipped from the hand of Jenny has a volume of 0.50 L
at sea level (1.0 atm) and it reached a height of approximately 8 km where the
atmospheric pressure is approximately 0.33 atm. Assuming that the
temperature is constant, compute for final volume of the balloon.
2. A fixed amount of a gas occupies a volume of 1L and exerts a pressure of 400
kPa on the walls of its container. What would be the pressure exerted by the gas
if it is completely transferred into a new container having a volume of 3 liters
(assuming the temperature and quantity of gas remains constant)?
3. A gas exerts a pressure of 3 kPa on the walls of container 1. When container 1 is
emptied into a 10-liter container, the pressure exerted by the gas increases to 6
kPa. Find the volume of container 1. Assume that the temperature and quantity
of the gas remain constant.
4. A gas occupies 12.3 liters at a pressure of 40.0 mmHg. What is the volume when
the pressure is increased to 60.0 mmHg?
5. A balloon contains 7.20 L of He. The pressure is reduced to 2.00 atm and the
balloon expands to occupy a volume of 25.2 L. What was the initial pressure
exerted on the balloon?

of the tank after heating it and its content to 40 °C temperature at constant
pressure? SHOW YOUR COMPLETE SOLUTION.
5. At 20 °C, the volume of chlorine gas is 15. Compute for the resulting volume if
the temperature is adjusted to 318K provided that the pressure remains the
same. SHOW YOUR COMPLETE SOLUTION.

solutions and highlight your final answer, using any color of highlighter.
1. The pressure of a nitrogen gas inside a rigid tank is 1.5 atm at 30C. What will be
the resulting pressure if the tank is cooled to 0C?
2. A certain light bulb containing argon has a pressure of 1.20 atm at 18C. If it will
be heated to 85C at constant volume, what will be the resulting pressure? Is it
enough to cause sudden breakage of the bulb?
3. The helium tank has a pressure of 650 torr at 25C. What will be the pressure if
the temperature is tripled?
4. If a gas is cooled from 323.0 K to 273.15 K and the volume is kept constant what
final pressure would result if the original pressure was 750.0 mmHg?
5. A 30.0 L sample of nitrogen inside a metal container at 20.0 °C is placed inside
an oven whose temperature is 50.0 °C. The pressure inside the container at
20.0 °C was 3.00 atm. What is the pressure of the nitrogen after its temperature
is increased?

1. A scuba diver fills an air tank to a pressure of 300 kPa at a temperature of
27°C. Before the dive, the tank is left under the sun and the temperature
increases to 47°C. The volume of the tank remains constant. What is the new
pressure inside the tank?
2. A weather balloon has a volume of 2.5 L at a pressure of 1.0 atm and a
temperature of 20°C. As it rises higher in the atmosphere, the temperature
drops to –10°C, and the pressure decreases to 0.75 atm. What will be the new
volume of the balloon?
