Answer:
The pressure exerted by 66.0 g of CO₂ gas at -14.5°C that occupies a volume of 50.0 L is 0.636 atm.
How do we calculate pressure?
Pressure of any gas will be calculated by using the ideal gas equation as:
PV = nRT, where
P = pressure of gas = ?
V = volume of gas = 50L
R = universal gas constant = 0.082 L.atm/K.mol
T = temperature of gas = -14.5°C = 258.65 K
n is moles of gas and it will be calculated as:
n = W/M, where
W = given mass of CO₂ = 66g
M = molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol
n = 66/44 = 1.5 moles
On putting values we get
P = (1.5)(0.082)(258.65) / (50)
P = 0.636 atm
Hence required pressure is 0.636 atm.
