8. There is a mixture of three gases in a closed container. Gas A exerts a pressure of 15 psi, Gas B a
pressure of 6.5 psi, and the total pressure is 25.7 psi. What is the partial pressure of Gas C?

9. A large gas balloon sits at the surface of the sea. After being lowered 40 ft under the surface, the gas
balloon has its temperature drop to one-third of its original surface temperature and its pressure has
quadrupled. What effect will this have on its volume?
