Question

If you collect 1.75 L of hydrogen gas during a lab experiment, when the room temperature is 23ºC and the barometric pressure is 105 kPa, how many moles of hydrogen will you have?

Answer 1

Answer:

$n=0.0747mol$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since we can consider hydrogen gas as an ideal gas, we check the volume-pressure-temperature-mole relationship by using the ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

Whereas we are asked to compute the moles given the temperature in Kelvins, thr pressure in atm and volume in L as shown below:

$n=\frac{105kPa*\frac{0.009869atm}{1kPa}*1.75L}{0.082\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*(23+273.15)K} \\\\n=0.0747mol$

Best regards.
