Question:

(a) What volume of air at 1.0 atm and 22°C is needed to fi ll a 0.98-L bicycle tire to a pressure of 5.0 atm at the same temperature? (The 5.0 atm is the gauge pressure, which is the difference between the pressure in the tire and atmospheric pressure. Before filling, the pressure in the tire was 1.0 atm.)
(b) What is the total pressure in the tire when the gauge pressure reads 5.0 atm?
(c) The tire is pumped by filling the cylinder of a hand pump with air at 1.0 atm and then, by compressing the gas in the cylinder, adding all the air in the pump to the air in the tire. If the volume of the pump is 33 percent of the tire's volume, what is the gauge pressure in the tire after three full strokes of the pump? Assume constant temperature.
