pressure exerted by 220g of co2 gas in 8.21dm3 vessel at 27°c ?
Answers
Answer:
P= nRT/V
= 5×0.0821×300/8.21
=15atm
Explanation:
Given; V= 8.21dm^3 = 8.21L
T=27°C = 300K
given mass = 220g
n= 220g/44g = 5mole
PV = nRT
P= nRT/V
= 5×0.0821×300/8.2
=15atm
Given - Mass, volume, temperature
Find - Pressure exerted
Solution - The pressure exerted by carbon dioxide gas as per the given information is - 15 atm.
The solution will be calculated using the formula -
PV = nRT. In the formula, P is pressure (atm), V is the volume (litre), n is the number of moles, R is gas constant (L-atm/mol-K) and T is the temperature (Kelvin). Units are given in brackets.
So, Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 220/44
Number of moles = 5
Volume = 8.21 dm³
Volume = 8.21 litre
Temperature = 27 + 273
Temperature = 300 K
Gas constant R = 0.082 L atm/mol K
Keep the values in the formula to find the value of pressure exerted.
Thus, the pressure exerted by carbon dioxide gas as per the given information is 15 atm.
