Expert Solution

Using ideal gas law, pV = nRT

            Where, p = pressure in atm = 1 atm

            V =volume in L

            n = number of moles = 1           [standard condition]

            R = universal gas constant= 0.08205746 atm L mol-1K-1

Volume, V = nRT/ P = [1 mol x (0.08205746 atm L mol-1K-1) x 288 K ] = 23.63255 L

Mass of 1 mole N2 gas = moles x molecular mss

                                    = 1 mole x 28.014 g mol-1

                                    = 28.014 g

Density = mass / volume

            = 28.014 g / 23.63255 L = 1.185 g/ L

In class we showed that hot air at atmospheric pressure is less dense than cooler air at the same pressure. Because of this difference hot-air balloons can stay aloft. Assume that you have an air-balloon that has the volume of 500 m3 and the surrounding air is at 100C. You want to lift 250 kg object (in addition to the mass of the hot air that is inside the balloon). What must be the temperature of the air in the...

A hot-air balloon stays aloft because hot air at atmospheric pressure is less dense than cool air at the same pressure. The volume of a balloon is V = 1000.0 m3, and the surrounding air has a temperature T0 which is 10.0 degrees C. The density of air at 10.0 degrees C and atmospheric pressure is p0=1.23 kg m-3. a. What must the temperature T of the air in the balloon be for it to lift a total load of...

For a system corresponding mainly to a uniform electric field, the flashover voltage is slightly lower than the breakdown voltage of air alone, for the same electrode gaps.
For a system corresponding mainly to a uniform electric field, the flashover voltage is slightly lower than the breakdown voltage of air alone, for the same electrode gaps. The decrease in the flashover voltage is due to the presence of small air pockets between the electrodes and solid dielectric, the influence of moisture and the non-uniformity of the electric field resulting of the difference between the permittivity of both the solid and that of air. The non-uniformity of electric field...

What are TWO reasons that fats are generally more energy-dense than carbohydrates? Fats are less hydrated than carbohydrates. Fats are more hydrated than carbohydrates. Carbon in fats is generally more reduced than carbon in carbohydrates. Carbon in fats is generally more oxidized than carbon in carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are stored in special membrane-bound compartments that take up more space.
