For many purposes we can treat propane (C₂Hg) as an ideal gas at temperatures above its boiling point of -42. C. Suppose the temperature of a sample of propane gas is raised from -21.0 °C to 19.0 °C, and at the same time the pressure is changed. If the initial pressure was 0.37 kPa and the volume increased by 50.0%, what is the final pressure? Round your answer to the correct number of significant digits. kPa X S

A typical barometric pressure in Redding. California, is about 750 mm Hg. Calculate this pressure in atm and kPa.
A cylinder of compressed gas is labeled Composition (mole %): 4.5% H2S, 3.0% CO2, balance N2. The pressure gauge attached to the cylinder reads 46 atm. Calculate the partial pressure of each gas, in atmospheres, in the cylinder.
You have a gas, one of the three known phosphorus-fluorine compounds (PF3, PF3, and P2F4). To find out which, you have decided to measure its molar mass. (a) First, yon determine that the density of the gas is 5.60 g/L at a pressure of 0.971 atm and a temperature of 18.2 C. Calculate the molar mass and identify the compound. (b) To check the results from part (a), you decide to measure the molar mass based on the relative rales of effusion of the unknown gas and CO2. You find that CO2 effuses at a rate of 0.050 mol/min, whereas the unknown phosphorus fluoride effuses at a rate of 0.028 mol/min. Calculate the molar mass of the unknown gas based on these results.
