A balloon inflated with nitrogen gas, oxygen gas and hydrogen gas if left outside

on a 32°C day. The nitrogen gas has a pressure of 0.5atm, oxygen gas has a
pressure of 0.25atm, and the hydrogen gas has a pressure of 0.35atm. What is
the overall pressure when the balloon is brought inside to a 15°C house?

To solve the problem, we can use the combined gas law, which relates pressure, volume, and temperature of gases. We can plug in the given pressures and temperatures and solve for the overall pressure inside the balloon.
