SUMMARY
The discussion centers on calculating the number of hydrogen molecules in 1 cm³ of a balloon containing 1 gram of hydrogen gas, with a molar mass of 2 g/mol. Using the ideal gas law equation, pV=nRT, the final calculated result is 7.5 x 1019 molecules per cm³. This conclusion is derived from the relationship between the volume of gas, the number of moles, and the molar mass of hydrogen.
