we have this experiment thing we have to do in school and it has something to do with avogadro's law. Does avogadro's law apply on blimps?If it doesn't give me another thing that does apply avogadro's law.THNX SO MUCH!!!

It applies to everything - it's the number of atoms in a gram-atom of an element, so, if Blimp was an element it would also be subject to this particular law - Dalton; however:

specifically to gases: equal volumes of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules.

Blimps would be subject to the law relatively speaking as they're not being considered alongside anything else.

".yEAh." is correct.

Presumably it could "apply on blimps," because blimps are full of gas, and Avogadro's Law applies to gases in general. Whether or not it's relevant to your experiment depends on exactly what the experiment is.

Avogadro's law (Avogadro's Hypothesis, or Avogadro's Principle) is a gas law named after Amedeo Avogadro, who in 1811 hypothesized that:

Equal volumes of gases, at the same temperature and pressure, contain the same number of particles, or molecules.

Thus, the number of molecules in a specific volume of gas is independent of the size or mass of the gas molecules. As an example, equal volumes of molecular hydrogen and nitrogen would contain the same number of molecules, as long as they are at the same temperature and pressure.
