What is the density of CHCL3 vapor at 1.00atm and 298K?
Advocard [28]

Answer:

4.8 g/mL is the density of chloroform vapor at 1.00 atm and 298 K.

Explanation:

By ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

Number of moles (n)

can be written as: n=\frac{m}{M}

where, m = given mass

M = molar mass

PV=\frac{m}{M}RT\\\\PM=\frac{m}{V}RT

where,

\frac{m}{V}=d which is known as density of the gas

The relation becomes:

PM=dRT    .....(1)

We are given:

M = molar mass of chloroform= 119.5 g/mol

R = Gas constant = 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = temperature of the gas = 298K

P = pressure of the gas = 1.00 atm

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

1.00atm\times 119.5g/mol=d\times 0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\d=4.88g/L

4.8 g/mL is the density of chloroform vapor at 1.00 atm and 298 K.
