calculate no of moles and molecules of NH3 in volume 67.2 dm3 of it measured of STP
Answers
NH3=67.2dm^3
No. Of moles = 67.2 ÷ molar volume
of gas
=67.2÷22.4
=3.0 mol
No. of = 3.0 × avocadro's constant
molecule. = 3.0 × 6.022 × 10^23
= 18.066 × 10^23 molecules
Answer : The number of moles of ammonia gas will be, 3.0 mole and the number of molecules of ammonia gas will be,
Explanation :
First we have to calculate the moles of ammonia gas.
According to the Avogadro's law, the volume of gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas at same pressure and temperature. That means,
or,
where,
= initial volume of gas =
= final volume of gas at STP = 22.4 L
= initial moles of gas = ?
= final moles of gas at STP = 1 mole
Now we put all the given values in this formula, we get:
The number of moles of ammonia gas will be, 3.0 mole.
Now we have to calculate the number of molecules of ammonia gas.
As, 1 mole of ammonia gas contains molecules of ammonia gas
So, 3.0 mole of ammonia gas contains molecules of ammonia gas
The number of molecules of ammonia gas will be,
