An old gas cylinder you found lost its label. Lab supervisor is pretty sure that it is either He, Ne, Ar or Kr and you were tasked to figure out which one. What you did was that you transferred some of the gas from the old cylinder into an evacuated 10-L flask until the gauge pressure inside reached 1.00 atm. After sealing it, you carefully weighed the gas-filled flask and figured out that the mass of the gas (excluding that of the flask) was 15 g. If the temperature and barometric pressure in the lab was 27°C and 1 atm, what was the gas?
