Answer:

A. 9280.78 moles.

B. 37123.12 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the volume of the spherical balloon. This can be obtained as follow:

Diameter (d) = 6 m

Radius (r) = d/2 = 6/2 = 3 m

Pi (π) =3.14

Volume (V) =?

V = 4/3πr³

V = 4/3 × 3.14 × 3³

V = 4/3 × 3.14 × 27

V = 113.04 m³

Next, we shall convert 20°C to Kelvin temperature. This can be obtained as follow:

T(K) = T(°C) + 273

T(°C) = 20°C

T(K) = 20°C + 273

T(K) = 293 K

Next, we shall convert 200 KPa to Pa. This can be obtained as follow:

1 KPa = 1000 Pa

Therefore,

200 KPa = 200 KPa × 1000 Pa / 1 KPa

200 KPa = 2×10⁵ Pa

A. Determination of the number of mole of He in the spherical balloon.

Volume (V) = 113.04 m³

Temperature (T) = 293 K

Pressure (P) = 2×10⁵ Pa

Gas constant (R) = 8.314 m³Pa/Kmol

Number of mole (n) =?

PV = nRT

2×10⁵ × 113.04 = n × 8.314 × 293

22608000 = n × 2436.002

Divide both side by 2436.002

n = 22608000 / 2436.002

n = 9280.78 moles

B. Determination of the mass of He.

Mole of He (n) = 9280.78 moles

Molar mass of He = 4 g/mol

Mass of He =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of He = 9280.78 × 4

Mass of He = 37123.12 g
