The density of the SF₆ gas at the given pressure and temperature is 2.96 g/l.
The given parameters:
The molecular mass of the SF₆ gas is calculated as follows;
M of SF₆ = 32 + (6 x 19) = 146 g/mol
The density of the SF₆ gas is calculated by applying ideal gas law as follows;
[tex]PV = nRT\\\\PV = \frac{m}{M} RT\\\\PM = \frac{m}{V} RT\\\\PM = \rho RT\\\\\rho = \frac{PM}{RT}[/tex]
where;
[tex]\rho = \frac{0.5 \times 146}{0.0821 \times 300} \\\\\rho = 2.96 \ g/l[/tex]
Thus, the density of the SF₆ gas at the given pressure and temperature is 2.96 g/l.
