Hello, to answer your question. It is because all machines require a fuel or source to power it making it imperfect for using some source that may not be renewable.

How many moles of gas X are present if the gas has a volume of 2dm³ at room temperature and pressure? Give your answer to 2 deci

Answer:

Approximately $0.08\; \rm mol$ , assuming that this gas is an ideal gas.

Explanation:

Look up the standard room temperature and pressure: $25\; \rm ^{\circ}C$ and $P = 101.325 \; \rm kPa$ .

The question states that the volume of this gas is $V = 2\; \rm dm^{3}$ .

Convert the unit of all three measures to standard units:

$\begin{aligned} T &= 25\; \rm ^{\circ}C \\ &= (25 + 273.15)\; \rm K \\ &= 293.15\; \rm K\end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned}P &= 101.325\; \rm kPa \\ &= 101.325 \; \rm kPa \times \frac{10^{3}\; \rm Pa}{1\; \rm kPa} \\ &= 1.01325 \times 10^{5}\; \rm Pa\end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned}V &= 2\; \rm dm^{3} \\ &= 2 \; \rm dm^{3} \times \frac{1\; \rm m^{3}}{10^{3}\; \rm dm^{3}} \\ &= 2 \times 10^{-3}\; \rm m^{3}\end{aligned}$ .

Look up the ideal gas constant in the corresponding units: $R \approx 8.31\; \rm m^{3}\cdot Pa \cdot mol^{-1} \cdot K^{-1}$ .

Let $n$ denote the number of moles of this gas in that $V = 2\; \rm dm^{3}$ . By the ideal gas law, if this gas is an ideal gas, then the following equation would hold:

$P \cdot V = n \cdot R \cdot T$ .

Rearrange this equation and solve for $n$ :

$\begin{aligned}n &= \frac{P \cdot V}{R \cdot T} \\ &\approx \frac{1.01325 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm Pa} \times 2 \times 10^{-3}\; {\rm m^{3}}}{8.31 \; {\rm m^{3} \cdot Pa \cdot mol^{-1} \cdot K^{-1}} \times 293.15\; {\rm K}} \\ &\approx 0.08\; \rm mol\end{aligned}$ .
