On a ship sailing in pacific ocean where temperatures is 23.4^(@)C, a balloon is filled with 2 L air. What will be the volume of the balloon when the ship reaches Indian ocean where temperature is 26.1^(@)C?

Answer»

Solution :When `T_(1)=23.4^(@)C=(23.4+273) K=296.4 K, V_(1)=2L`
When `T_(2)=26.1^(@)C=(26.1+273) K=299.1 K, V_(2)`= To be calculated
As pressure above the sea LEVEL is supposed to remain constant, applying CHARLES' law,
`(V_(1))/(T_(1))=(V_(2))/(T_(2)), i.e., (2L)/(296 K)=(V_(2))/(299.1 K)" or "V_(2)=2.018 L`
