, where, R= Universal gas constant, T= Absolute temperature, P= Pressure, V= Volume of gas, d= Density of gas.
Given, T=273 K, P=1.00 x 10⁻² atm, d=1.24 x 10⁻⁵ g/cm³.
(a) Using the formula =√
=√(3X1.00X10⁻²)/(1.24X10⁻⁵)=49.18
(b) Molar mass can be determined by using the formula =√{3RT}{M}
49.18=√
49.18²=√(3X8.314X273)/M
M=
M=1.67 ≅ 2
Molecular mass is 2.
(c) The gas is Helium (He) whose molecular mass is 2.
