Homework Statement
A bubble of air, 0.010m^3 in volume , is formed at the bottom of a lake which is 30m deep and where the temoperature is 8 degrees c. The bubble risees to the surface, where the water temp is 26 deg c and where the pressure is atmospheric pressure. What is the volume of the bubble just as it reaches the surface?
Homework Equations
Im not sure how to attempt this problem but i used pv=nrt
r=8.31
The Attempt at a Solution
i know that the n and the R have to stay constant, so i attempted by saying 100000(atmospheric pressure)*(.01)=(n)*(8.31)*(26-8)
but when i do that, i don't understand what i am solving for
will you please tell me if i am headed in the correct direction to solve this problem? thanks in advance.
