a balloon filled with an ideal gas is taken from the surface of the sea deep to a depth of 100m what will be its volume in terms of its original volume?

Solution
Pressure at the sea level or surface=760mm Hg
It translates into 1033.3 cm H20
Thereafter, furthermore conversion results in 10.3m H20
Pressure at a depth of 100m= 100+ 10/3=110.3m of H20
Applying formula at constant temperature
P1V1=P2V2
P2 and V2 are the respective pressure and volume at 100 m depth
