The spirit of america goodyear blimp has a volume of 2.027×105 ft3.when the blimp is in operation, it is filled with helium gas. if the density of helium at room temperature is 0.179 g/l, calculate the mass of helium in the blimp.

1.027 x 10^6 g= 1027kg
In this question, you are given the volume of the blimp (2.027×10^5 ft^3) and the density of the gas(0.179g/L). To answer this question, you need to convert the volume unit into liter. The calculation would be: 2.027×10^5 ft^3 x 28.3168L/ft3= 57.398 x 10^5L= 5.74x10^6L

Then to find the mass, multiply the volume with the density. The calculation would be: 5.74x10^6L x 0.179g/L= 1.027 x 10^6 g= 1027kg

What are the choices?

A.
