For this item, we need to assume that air behaves like that of an ideal gas. Ideal gases follow the ideal gas law which can be written as follow,
PV = nRT
where P is the pressure,
V is the volume,
n is the number of mols,
R is the universal gas constant, and
T is temperature
In this item, we are to determine first the number of moles, n. We derive the equation,
n = PV /RT
Substitute the given values,
n = (1 atm)(5 x 10³ L) / (0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(0 + 273.15)
n = 223.08 mols
From the given molar mass, we calculate for the mass of air.
m = (223.08 mols)(28.98 g/mol) = 6464.9 g
<em>ANSWER: 6464.9 g</em>
2.5LX2 M=5 moles
As Molarity X Volume= Total Number of Moles
