A scuba diver releases a balloon containing 181 L of helium attached to a tray of artifacts at an underwater archaeological state. when the balloon reaches the surface, it has expanded to a volume of 351 L. The pressure at the surface is 1.00 atm. What is the pressure at underwater site? What is the depth of the underwater site Pressure increases by exactly 1.0 atm for every 10 m depth. At what depth was the diver working?

Can you help with the "at what depth was the diver working"? I already got the first part @kropot72

Are you familiar with the barometric equation, I think you can use this also to solve for the depth, which I think is the variable, $Z$.

Since you're working with helium here, you can assume ideal conditions. Here is the formula: http://chemistry.umeche.maine.edu/~amar/spring2012/barometric.html and how to use it.
