Question

A cylinder contains 12.8 L of air at a total pressure of 45.0 psi and a temperature of 30 ∘C.

How many moles of gas does the cylinder contain? (Hint: You must convert each quantity into the correct units (L, atm, mol, and K) before substituting into the ideal gas law.)

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Definition Definition Law that is the combined form of Boyle's Law, Charles's Law, and Avogadro's Law. This law is obeyed by all ideal gas. Boyle's Law states that pressure is inversely proportional to volume. Charles's Law states that volume is in direct relation to temperature. Avogadro's Law shows that volume is in direct relation to the number of moles in the gas. The mathematical equation for the ideal gas law equation has been formulated by taking all the equations into account: PV=nRT Where P = pressure of the ideal gas V = volume of the ideal gas n = amount of ideal gas measured in moles R = universal gas constant and its value is 8.314 J.K-1mol-1 T = temperature
