Answer:
the volume of the gas will be 1/8 of the original value
Explanation:
Answer:
4g/mol
Explanation:
Firstly, we can get the number of moles of the gas present using the ideal gas equation.
PV = nRT
Here:
P = 886 torr
V = 224ml = 224/1000 = 0.224L
T = 55 degrees celcius= 55+ 273.15 = 328.15K
R = molar gas constant = 62.36 L⋅Torr⋅K−1⋅mol−1
n = PV/RT
n = (886 * 0.224)/(62.36 * 328.15)
n = 0.009698469964 mole
Now to get the molar mass, this is mathematically equal to the mass divided by the number of moles. We have the mass and the number of moles, remaining only the molar mass.
First, we convert the mass to g and that is 38.8/1000 = 0.0388
The molar mass is thus 0.0388/0.009698469964 = 4g/mol
