At 1 atm pressure and 25' temperature, a ballon weighing 25 Kg is packed with 342.6 28 kg of helium. What will be its pay load if it displaced 2554 kg of air?

Correct answer: A. 2186.4 kg

  • A. 2186.4 kg
  • B. 2896.6 kg
  • C. 2129.6 kg
  • D. 2211.4 kg

Explanation

Total mass of the balloon= 25kg + 342.6 kg =367.6 kg Payload is the carrying capacity, Thus, Pay load = Mass of displaced air - Total mass of balloon= 2554 kg - 367.6 kg = 2186.4 kg

About Ideal Gas Equation

The ideal gas equation, PV = nRT, relates pressure, volume, amount and absolute temperature when gas particles are assumed to have negligible volume and no intermolecular forces. Applications include finding molar mass, density or an unknown gas variable, with careful use of Kelvin temperature and consistent units, and comparison with real-gas behaviour.
