QUESTION 2

  1. An Oxygen gas container has a volume of  20.0 L. How many grams of oxygen are there in the container ,if  the gas has a pressure of 845 mm Hg at 22.0oC ?

     

Expert Solution
Step 1

By help of Ideal gas equation (PV = nRT) we can calculate the value of Number of moles of gas as well as mass of gas in grams , therefore Ideal gas equation can be converted as -

PV = nRT

PV = wRT/ M

Here , P is pressure of gas atmosphere

V is volume of the gas in Liter

w is mass / weight of the gas in grams

R is universal gas constant (0.082 L atm mol-1 K-1)

T is temperature of gas in Kelvin

M = molar mass of the gas in g/mol
