Answer:

The temperature of the balloon is 194.5 K (-78.65 °C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of N2 = 25.0 grams

Pressure = 9.5 atm

Volume = 1500 mL = 1.5 L

Molar mass N2 = 28 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles N2

Moles N2 = mass N2 / molar mass N2

Moles N2 = 25.0 grams / 28.0 g/mol

Moles N2 = 0.893 moles

Step 3: Calculate temperature of the balloon

p*V = n*R*T

T = (p*V)/(n*R)

⇒ with T = the temperature in the balloon = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with p = the pressure in the balloon = 9.5 atm

⇒ with V = the volume = 1.5 L

⇒ with n = the moles of N2 = 0.893 moles

⇒ with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

T = (9.5 * 1.5)/(0.893*0.08206)

T = 194.5 K = -78.65 °C

The temperature of the balloon is 194.5 K (-78.65 °C)
