Answer:
T =76.13 K
Explanation:
Given data:
Temperature of gas = ?
Volume of gas = 250 mL(250/1000 = 0.25 L)
Mass of helium = 0.40 g
Pressure of gas = 253.25 kpa (253.25/101 = 2.5 atm)
Solution:
Formula:
PV = nRT
First of all we will determine the number of moles of helium.
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 0.40 g/ 4 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.1 mol
Now we will put the values.
R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K
T = PV/nR
T =2.5 atm× 0.25 L /0.1 mol ×0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K
T = 0.625 /0.00821/K
T =76.13 K
