A hot air balloon can have a volume of 2950 cubic meters (2.95 ✕ 106 liters) and operate at temperatures up to 250°F (121°C). Assuming a balloon is operating at this maximum temperature with an external pressure of 1.00 atm, what mass of air would the balloon hold? While air is a mixture of many gases, we can assume a molar mass of 28.97 g/mol for air.
