Question

A large flask is evacuated and weighed, filled with argon gas, and then reweighed. When reweighed, the flask is found to have gained 3.223 g. It is again evacuated and then filled with a gas of unknown molar mass. When reweighed, the flask is found to have gained 8.105 g.

Answer 1

Answer:

100.52

Explanation:

from the ideal gas equation PV=nRT

for a given container filled with any ideal gas P and V remains constant.So T is also constant.R is as such a constant.

So n i.e no of moles will also be constant.

no of moles of Ar=3.224/40=0.0806

no of moles of unknown gas=0.0806

molecular wt of unknown gas=8.102/0.0806=100.52
