The gaseous product of a reaction is collected in a 25.0L container at 27.0 C. The pressure in the container is 3.0atm and the gas has a mass of 96.0g. What is the molar mass of the gas?

Respuesta :

Answer: The molar mass of the gas is 31.6 g/mol

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

[tex]PV=nRT[/tex]

P = pressure of gas = 3.0 atm

V = Volume of gas = 25.0 L

n = number of moles  = ?

R = gas constant =[tex]0.0821Latm/Kmol[/tex]

T =temperature =[tex]27.0^0C=(27.0+273)K=300K[/tex]

[tex]n=\frac{PV}{RT}[/tex]

[tex]n=\frac{3.0atm\times 25.0L}{0.0821 L atm/K mol\times 300K}=3.04moles[/tex]

Moles =[tex]\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}[/tex]

[tex]3.04=\frac{96.0g}{\text {Molar mass}}[/tex]

[tex]{\text {Molar mass}}=31.6g/mol[/tex]

The molar mass of the gas is 31.6 g/mol
