How would I calculate the mass of air in an empty flask?

From the volume of the flask, and the density of air under the conditions in the room, you can calculate the mass of air. The density of air varies with pressure, temperature, humidity, etc. At sea level and at 15 °C air has a density of approximately 0.001225 g/ml, so under these conditions, a liter flask would contain (1000 ml)(0.001225 g/ml) = 1.225 g of air.


What happens to the mass of a balloon when you put it in a warm room?

Nothing happens to the mass of the balloon. Mass is conserved, so the temperature of the balloon will not affect it's mass. Mass can be thought of the amount of "stuff" that makes up a balloon. It can be obtained by adding up the mass of all the molecules of rubber in the balloon. Obviously, putting the balloon in a warm room will not change the number of molecules in the balloon, therefore the mass stays constant. The volume of the balloon will probably increase. Because volume increases but mass remains constant, the density of the balloon would decrease. D = m/v


Why does a blown up balloon weigh more than a flat one?

Since air is matter, it does have mass. So adding its mass to the mass of the balloon would cause the balloon to have more mass. Weight is a measure of the pull of gravity on an object and an object with more mass is "pulled" more, so the balloon with air in it would indeed be heavier than a balloon without air.


A balloon has a volume of 6.3 liters Calculate the mass of helium that it would take to fill the balloon?

The mass of helium contained will be 1 gram.


Which property of a filled balloon would be unchanged on the moon where there's no air and less gravity?

The mass of the balloon and its contents would be unchanged.


What happens to the mass in a balloon when heated?

the mass of the balloon increases because the size of the balloon has increased. :)


What mass can a hot hot-air balloon carry?

That depends on the ratio of the mass in the basket to the mass of the balloon. The bigger the carrying mass the greater the size of the balloon.


What is the melting point of a balloon?

The mass of the balloon depends on its size. For small sized balloon, weighing scale can be used to calculate the mass. Anything that has mass will have gravitational force acting on it.


You filled a balloon with 560 ml of water the balloon and water have a mass of?

The water has a mass of roughly 560 grams, depending on its purity and temperature. We have no idea what the mass of the balloon is.


Explain how you know that air is matter?

Determine the mass of an empty balloon. Then blow as much air as you can into the balloon and determine the mass again. The blown up balloon should be heavier and occupy more volume (is bigger). This shows that the air used to blow it up has mass and volume, and therefore is matter.


Can an Erlenmeyer flask measure in grams?

No. An erlenmyer flask measures volume, usually in mililiters, but sometimes in liters. Grams is a measurement of mass, and to measure mass you need a ballance.


How can you weigh air in a balloon?

Identify the weight of balloon with air. And identify the mass of the balloon. Now subtract the second from the first. You get the mass of the air present in it.
