Hey there!

From ideal gas equation we know, PV = nRT

All the terms have their usual significance.

PV =w/M * RT

( where , n is number of moles = w/M, we = weight of gas, M = molecular weight of the gas)

Therefore, PV = wRT/M

At standard conditions , value of pressure, P = 1atm and standard temperature, T = 273K

And value of universal gas constant, R = 0.082 lit. atm. K⁻¹.mol⁻¹

Given that, weight of gas,

w = 5.60g and volume of gas,

V = 500mL = 0.5 Liters

Therefore, substituting all the value, we get :

Molar mass = 5.60 * 0.082 * 273 / 1 * 0.5

Molar mass = 250.7232 g/mole

Tia has a sample of pure gold (Au). She weighed the sample and the result was 35.9 grams. Tia wants to determine the number of a

Gemiola [76]

First, find moles of gold given the mass of the sample:
(35.9g Au)/(197.0g/mol Au) = 0.182mol Au

Second, multiply moles of Au by Avogrado's number:
(0.182mol)(6.02 x10^23)= 1.10x10^23 atoms Au

In experiment 1, how many moles of benzoic acid are present? how many moles of sodium bicarbonate are contained in 1 ml of a 10%

nexus9112 [7]

First, let us calculate the moles of solute or sodium bicarbonate is in the 1 ml solution.

moles = 1 mL * (1 g / 9 mL) = 0.11 moles

The molar mass of sodium bicarbonate is 84 g/mol, therefore the mass is:

mass = 0.11 moles * 84 g/mol

mass = 9.33 g
