An inflatable toy starts with 1.05 moles of air and a volume of 5.17 liters. When fully inflated, the volume is 8.00 liters. If
padilas [110]

Answer:-  1.62 moles

Solution:- At constant temperature and pressure, volume is directly proportional to the moles of the gas.

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}

from given data, V_1 = 5.17 L, n_1 = 1.05 moles

V_2 = 8.00 L, n_2 = ?

Let's plug in the values in the formula:

\frac{5.17L}{8.00L}=\frac{1.05moles}{n_2}

On cross multiply:

n_2=\frac{8.00L(1.05moles)}{5.17L}

n_2 = 1.62 moles

So, now the toy contains 1.62 moles of the air.
