A balloon is filled with hydrogen at room temperature. It will burst if pressure exceeds 0.2bar. If at 1bar pressure the gas occupies 2.27 L volume, upto what volume can the ballon be expanded?

1.	A balloon is filled with hydrogen at room temperature. It will burst if pressure exceeds 0.2bar. If at 1bar pressure the gas occupies 2.27 L volume, upto what volume can the ballon be expanded?
Answer» SOLUTION :According to Boyle.s LAW `p_1V_1 = p_2 V_2` If `p_1` is 1 BAR, `V_1` is 2.27L If `p_2` = 0.2 bar, then `V_2 = p_1V_1/p_2 = V_2 = 1BAR xx 2.27L/0.2bar = 11.35 L` SINCE balloon bursts at 0.2 bar pressure, the volume of balloon should be lass than 11.35L
