Solution

The correct option is C 4247
Volume of balloon =43πr3=43×227×103=4190.47m3
Mass of the air displaced = 4190.47 × 1.2=5028.56Kg
No of moles of helium in the balloon= PVRT
=1×4190.47×1030.082×300
= 170344
Mass of helium =4×170.344×103=681.376Kg
Mass of filled balloon = 681.376+100 =781.376Kg
Pay load = Mass of air displaced – Mass of filled balloon
=5028.56-781.376
=4247.184Kg
