A balloon containing methane gas has a volume of 1.03 L at 99.0 °C . What volume will the balloon occupy at 198 °C ?

The balloon will occupy a volume of 1.32L.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Original Volume, V1 = 1.03L

Original Temperature, T1 = 99°C

New Temperature, T2 = 198°C

To find new volume V2, we would use Charles' law.

Charles states that when the pressure of an ideal gas is kept constant, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Charles is given by;

Converting T1, from Celsius to Kelvin = 273 + 99 = 372K

Converting, T2, from Celsius to Kelvin = 273 + 198 = 471K

Making V2 as the subject formula, we have;

V2 = 1.32L

Therefore, the balloon will occupy a volume of 1.32L at 198°C

while cooking a piece of 1/2 pound beef steak, a cast iron pan (2.4kg in weight) was heated 260 celsius.

answer : one can design an experiment using a liquid and an additive that can be added to the liquid and observe the chemical changes in the reaction species.

one would need a beaker which is filled with a known amount of the liquid in which thermometer is placed to measure the temperature changes; after addition of the additive to the liquid solution one can note down the temperature change and find whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic in nature. by subtracting the initial temperature value with the final temperature one can find the temperature changes.

various combinations of liquid and additive can be used. liquid in this case can be a known quantity of water and additives can be epsom salt or without epsom salt the experiment can be conducted to notice the changes. water and ice, hydrogen peroxide and dry yeast, vinegar and baking soda,etc.
