omposition and total pressure at a height of 7 km, if the atmosphere has a temperature of 25◦ C independent of altitude? 3. A mole of air (80% N2 and 20% O2 by volume) at 298.15K is brought into

ompress the sun in order to
reate a bla

ompressed to its S
hwarzs
hild radius of 3.0 km, giving a volume of 1.13097 × 1011 m3 . Find the amount of pressure the gaseous sun would exert at the S
hwarzs
hild radius to approximate how mu

ome. Assume the following: a) The
omposition of the sun is 75% H2 and 25% He by mass b) The mass of the sun is 1.98855 × 1030 kg
