Question Number 16081 by Tinkutara last updated on 17/Jun/17

A spherical balloon of 21 cm diameter  is to be filled with hydrogen at NTP  from a cylinder containing the gas at  20 atmosphere at 27°C. If the cylinder  can hold 2.82 litres of water, calculate  the number of balloons that can be  filled up.

volume of ballon  V_b =((πd^3 )/6)=((π×21^3 )/6)=4849 cm^3     volume of gas at 1 atomospere and NTP  V_g =((20+273)/(27+273))×((20)/1)×2.82×1000 =55084 cm^3     number of ballons   n=⌊(V_g /V_b )⌋=⌊((55084)/(4849))⌋=⌊11.3⌋=11

$$\mathrm{volume}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{ballon} \\ $$$$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{b}} =\frac{\pi\mathrm{d}^{\mathrm{3}} }{\mathrm{6}}=\frac{\pi×\mathrm{21}^{\mathrm{3}} }{\mathrm{6}}=\mathrm{4849}\:\mathrm{cm}^{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\mathrm{volume}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{gas}\:\mathrm{at}\:\mathrm{1}\:\mathrm{atomospere}\:\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{NTP} \\ $$$$\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{g}} =\frac{\mathrm{20}+\mathrm{273}}{\mathrm{27}+\mathrm{273}}×\frac{\mathrm{20}}{\mathrm{1}}×\mathrm{2}.\mathrm{82}×\mathrm{1000}\:=\mathrm{55084}\:\mathrm{cm}^{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\mathrm{number}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{ballons}\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{n}=\lfloor\frac{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{g}} }{\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{b}} }\rfloor=\lfloor\frac{\mathrm{55084}}{\mathrm{4849}}\rfloor=\lfloor\mathrm{11}.\mathrm{3}\rfloor=\mathrm{11} \\ $$

I corrected my answer, but the result  is still 11.
