Question

Part A:

Calculate the change in air pressure you will experience if you climb a 1000 m mountain, assuming that the temperature and air density do not change over this distance and that they were 22.0 ?C and 1.20 kg/m3 respectively, at the bottom of the mountain.

Part B:

If you took a 0.500 L breath at the foot of the mountain and managed to hold it until you reached the top, what would be the volume of this breath when you exhaled it there?

Answer 1

As we go pressure decreases and volume increases.
