The answer for the following problem is mentioned below.
<u><em>Therefore volume occupied by methane gas is 184.78 × 10^-3 liters </em></u>
Explanation:
Given:
mass of methane(
) = 272 grams
pressure (P) = 250 k Pa =250×10^3 Pa
temperature(t) = 54°C =54 + 273 = 327 K
Also given:
R = 8.31JK-1 mol-1 ,
Molar mass of methane(
) = 16.0 grams
We know;
According to the ideal gas equation,
<u><em>P × V = n × R × T</em></u>
here,
n = m÷M
n =272 ÷ 16
<u><em>n = 17 moles</em></u>
Therefore,
250×10^3 × V = 17 × 8.31 × 327
V = ( 17 × 8.31 × 327 ) ÷ ( 250×10^3 )
V = 184.78 × 10^-3 liters
<u><em>Therefore volume occupied by methane gas is 184.78 × 10^-3 liters </em></u>

The percent by mass sugar of a solution : 11.07%
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
mass of sugar = 12.45 g
mass of water = 100 g
Required
The percent by mass
Solution
Mass of solution :

Percent mass of sugar :

Grams of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams
Grams of white compound = 27.8 grams
Grams of Chlorine would be = 27.8 - 4.14 = 23.66 grams
Calculating moles which would be grams / molar mass
Molar mass of P = 30.97 grams / moles; Molar mass of Cl = 35.45 grams / moles
Moles of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams / 30.97 grams / moles = 0.1337 moles
Moles of Chlorine = 23.66 grams / 35.45 grams / moles = 0.6674 moles
Calculating the ratios by dividing with the small entity
P = 0.1337 moles / 0.1337 moles = 1
Cl = 0.6674 moles / 0.1337 moles = 5
So the empirical formula would be PCl5
