A toy balloon blown up at 5^(@)C has a volume of 480 mL. At this stage, the balloon is distended to 7/8th of its maximum stretching capacity. (i) Will the balloon burst if it is brought to a room having temperature 30^(@)C? (ii) Calculate the temperature at which the balloon will burst.

Answer»

Solution :Since the pressure remains constant, Charles LAW is applicable,
`(V_(1))/(T_(1))=(V_(2))/(T_(2))`
`"or"V_(2)=(V_(1)T_(2))/(T_(1))`
`""V_(2)=(480xx303)/(278)`
`"or"V_(2)=(480xx303)/(278)`
`"or"V_(2)=523mL`
Maximum volume upto which the balloon balloon can be blows without bursting
`=(480xx8)/(7)=548.6mL`
`therefore"Balloon will not burst in a room at "30^(@)C.`
(ii) Let us calculate the temperature at which volume becomes `"548.6 ml "(V_(2))`
`(V_(1))/(T_(1))=(V_(2))/(T_(2))`
`"or"T_(2)=(V_(2)T_(1))/(V_(1))`
`T_(2)=(548.6xx278)/(480)=317.7K`
`therefore"Balloon will butst at 317.7 K or "44.7^(@)C`.
