Let's assume that the gas has ideal gas behavior.

Ideal gas law,
<span>
PV = nRT               (1)

Where, P is the pressure of the gas (Pa), V is the volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the universal gas constant ( 8.314 J mol</span>⁻¹ K⁻<span>¹) and T is temperature in Kelvin.

</span>n = m/M          (2)

Where, n is number of moles, m is mass and M is molar mass.

From (1) and (2),
PV = (m/M) RT

By rearranging,
M = (mRT)/PV              (3)

P =  standard pressure = 1 atm = 101325 pa
V = 0.896 L = 0.896 x 10⁻³ m³
R = 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹<span>
T = Standard temperature = 273 K
m = </span>3.87 g = 3.87 x 10⁻³ kg<span> 
M = ?
</span><span>
By appying the formula,
M =(</span>3.87 x 10⁻³ kg x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 273 K) /101325 pa x  0.896 x 10⁻³m³
<span>M = 0.0967 kg
M = 96.7 g.

Hence, the molar mass of the gas is 96.7 g.

Wear _______________________ when handling batteries, because they can explode or leak.
Basile [38]

The answer is: b. Safety glasses and acid-resistant gloves.

Battery acid (sulfuric acid) has pH = 0.

Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) is a strong acid, it means that the solution of sufuric acid is more acidic (pH<7) than water (pH = 7).

Chemical dissociation of sulfuric acid in water:  

H₂SO₄(aq) → 2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq).  

Sulfuric acid can come in contact with eyes and hands, so it is important to wear safety glasses and acid-resistant gloves.

Genrish500 [490]
Those substances which has pH less than 5 are more acidic than Honeybee Venom. Some of them are listed below along with their pH scale,

                  1) <span>Acid rain and Tomato Juice has a pH of 4.

                  2) Soda and Orange Juice has a pH of 3.

                  3) Vinegar and Lemon Juice has pH of 2.

                  4) Gastric acid has a pH of 1.

                  5) Battery Acids have pH of zero.</span>
