Question
Chapter 1, Problem 1.1NP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:Thenumber of oxygen molecule reached to the mitochondrion of a person with mass 84 kg needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: The ideal gas equation gives the relation between pressure, volume, number of moles and temperature of gases. It can be written as:
Here, R is Universal gas constant.
Usually, gases do not follow ideal behavior under all conditions of pressure, temperature and volume. The relation of P, V, n and T of real gases can be given by Vander Waals equation:
Hence,
Here, a and b are constants.

A manometer was connected to a bulb containing nitrogen under slight pressure. The gas was allowed to escape through a small pinhole, and the time for the manometer reading to drop from 65.1 cm to 42.1 cm was 18.5 s. When the experiment was repeated using a fluorocarbon gas, the same fall took place in 82.3 s. Calculate the molar mass of the fluorocarbon.
