Suppose a helium balloon is filled with 1,000 cm^3 of helium. identify the amount of helium that will be in the balloon on the second and third days.

On second day: 500 cm^3

On third day: 250 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the initial amount of helium gas in the balloon.

As it is mentioned in the question that the balloon loses half of it's gas in one day. So after one day the gas will be half of the current volume. And to calculate the volume of gas the next day, the reduced volume will be divided by two.

So,

x = 1000 cm^3

Volume on second day,

x1 = 1000/2

=> 500 cm^3

Volume of gas on third day

x2 = x1/2

=> 500/2

=> 250 cm^3
