Question

A sample of gas is kept at a temperature of 300 k, a volume of 1.45L, and a pressure of 3.00 kPa. How many moles of has are in the sample

Answer 1

Answer:

the number of moles of the gas is 0.00174 mol.

Explanation:

Given;

temperature of the, T = 300 K

volume of the gas, V = 1.45 L

Pressure of the gas, P = 3.0 kPa

The number of moles of the gas is calculated using Ideal gas equation, as follows;

PV = nRT

Where;

n is number of moles of the gas

R is the ideal gas constant, = 8.315 L.kPa/mol.K

n = PV / RT

n = (3 x 1.45) / (8.315 x 300)

n = 0.00174 mol.

Therefore, the number of moles of the gas is 0.00174 mol.
