270

Explanation:

V_1->"volume of hydrogen in cylinder"=2.82L

T_1->"Temperature of hydrogen in cylinder"
=27^@C=27+273=300K

P_1->"Pressure of hydrogen in cylinder"=20atm

At NTP

P_2->"Pressure"=1atm

T_2->"Temperarture"=273K

V_2->"Volume"=?

By gas law

(P_2V_2)/T_2=(P_1V_1)/T_1

=>V_2=(P_1V_1T_2)/(P_2T_1)

=(20xx2.82xx273)/(1xx300)=51.324L

Excluding the minlmum remaining 2.82L gas in the cylinder at NTP maximum (51.324-2.82)L=48.504L gas can be used for filling baloons.

Volume of each spherical baloon of diameter 7cm is

=4/3pi(7/2)^3cm^3=4/3*22/7*7^3/8cm^3

=0.1796L

Hence the maximum number of baloons that can be filled with hydrogen from the cylinder is

="Total volume of gas"/"volume of a baloon"

=48.504/0.1796~~270" "(rounding to nearest whole number)
