Warm-ups: On a bright summer day under standard
atmospheric pressure, Tommy is buying a helium
balloon for Timmy's birthday party. When the clerk
is filling the balloon, she stops part way through to
make sure it is not going to explode and checks the
pressure. The pressure is 77 KPa and the temperature
at the store is 24oC. She finishes inflating the balloon
to 0.75L full. When she stops, the ballon pressure is
155 KPa. When Tommy takes the balloon outside, it
explodes. What was the temperature outdoors?
This
type of helium balloon is fully inflated at 1.2 L.
