Question
How many helium atoms are there in a helium blimp containing 536 $\mathrm{kg}$of helium?
Step 1
We know that the molar mass of helium is 4 g/mol. To find the number of moles, we can use the formula: Number of moles = mass / molar mass First, we need to convert the mass of helium from kg to grams: 536 kg * 1000 g/kg = 536,000 g Now, we can find the number Show more…

A helium balloon contains $0.46 \mathrm{g}$ of helium. How many moles of helium does it contain?
Estimate the number of helium molecules in a blimp filled with helium gas. Hint: Assume the pressure is a factor of two larger than atmospheric pressure (so that it will not collapse).
