Hey dear,
● Answer -
M = 31.2 g/mol
● Explaination -
# Given -
V = 280 ml = 280×10^-6 m^3
P = 750 mm Hg = 10^5 Pa
T = 305 K
W = 0.344 g
# Solution -
Using ideal gas equation,
PV = nRT
10^5 × 280×10^-6 = n × 8.314 × 305
n = 28 / (8.314×305)
n = 0.011 moles
Molecular weight can be calculated by -
M = W / n
M = 0.344 / 0.011
M = 31.2 g/mol.
Therefore, molecular weight of the gas is 31.2 g/mol.
