Question

A balloon of diameter 20 metre weighs 100 kg. If its pay-load is $$424.67\times 10^x g$$, if it is filled with He at 1.0 atm and $$27^oC$$. Density of air is $$1.2\ \text{kg m}^{-3} (R=0.082\ \text{dm}^3 \text{atm K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1}$$).Then, the value of x is...........

Solution

Mass of balloon $$=100 kg=10\times 10^4 g$$Volume of balloon$$=\cfrac {4}{3}\pi r^3$$$$=\frac {4}{3}\times \cfrac {22}{7}\times \left (\cfrac {20}{2}\times 100\right )^3$$$$=4190\times 10^6 cm^3=4190\times 10^3 litre$$Mass of gas (He) in balloon $$=\cfrac {PVm}{RT} \left (\because Pv=\frac {w}{m}RT\right )$$$$=\cfrac {1\times 4190\times 10^3\times 4}{0.082\times 300}$$$$=68.13\times 10^4 g$$$$\therefore$$ Total mass of gas and balloon$$=68.13\times 10^4+10\times 10^4=78.13\times 10^4g$$Mass of air displaced $$=1.2\times 4190=5028 kg$$$$=502.8\times 10^4 g$$Payload $$=$$ mass of air displaced - the mass of (balloon + gas)pay load $$=502.8\times 10^4-78.13\times 10^4=424.67\times 10^4 g$$so the value of $$\text{x}$$ is 4.Chemistry
