6. 7. A hyperbaric chamber has a volume of 200. L. (a) How many moles of oxygen are needed to fill the chamber at room temperature (23°C) and 3.00 atm pressure? b) How many grams of oxygen are needed? (Hint: Since moles have been asked, which equation has the moles listed in the equation. Use that to solve this problem. Also don’t forget to use the equation 1 mole = Formula weight or Molecular weight to calculate the grams of O2).

Answer:

a) 24.7 mol

b) 790 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Volume of the chamber (V): 200. L
  • Room temperature (T): 23 °C
  • Pressure of the gas (P): 3.00 atm

Step 2: Convert "T" to Kelvin

We will use the following expression.

K = °C + 273.15

K = 23°C + 273.15 = 296 K

Step 3: Calculate the moles (n) of oxygen

We will use the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

n = P × V/R × T

n = 3.00 atm × 200. L/(0.0821 atm.L/mol.K) × 296 K = 24.7 mol

Step 4: Calculate the mass (m) corresponding to 24.7 moles of oxygen

The molar mass (M) of oxygen ga sis 32.00 g/mol. We will calculate the mass of oxygen using the following expression.

m = n × M

m = 24.7 mol × 32.00 g/mol = 790 g
