Question

A toy balloon can occupy $500$ml at ${27}^o$C. The maximum stretching capacity of the balloon is three times of the volume at ${27}^o$C. The temperature above which the balloon will burst, if pressure of the balloon does not change.

• A. $300$K
• B. $900$K
• C. ${625}^o$C
• D. ${225}^o$C

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$900$K

Using $\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}$

$V_1=500$,

$V_2=3\times 500$

$T_1=300$,

$T_2=?$

$\frac{500}{300}=\frac{3\times 500}{T_2}$

$T_2=900$K

$T_2={627}^o$C

Option B.
