Example. A
hot-air balloon heated by a propane burner has a volume of 500,000
liters when the air inside is heated to 75.
What will the volume be after the air has cooled to 25,
if the pressure remains constant?
Solution. The first step is to convert temperature from centigrade
to absolute:
.
What will the volume be after the air has cooled to 25
T
= 75
= 25
