Question

A large balloon used to sample the upper atmosphere is filled with 320 m3 of hydrogen. What is the mass of the hydrogen (in kg)?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming STP

EACH 22.4 liters is a mole of H2

320 m^3 = 320 000 liters

320 000 liters / ( 22.4 liters/mole) = 14285.7 moles

From periodic table , each mole of H2 is 2.016 gm

18285. 7 moles * 2.016 gm/ mole = 28799.97 gm = ~ 28.8 kg
