Given info : 0.5 gm of nitrogen gas is contained in sealed vessel of 435 ml capacity at 25°C.

To find : the pressure exerted by the gas.

Solution : no of moles of nitrogen gas, n = given weight/molecular weight of N2

= 0.5/28 = 0.017 mol

volume of gas ( i.e., volume of vessel) , V = 435 ml = 0.435 Litre [ you know, 1l = 1000 ml]

temperature , T = 25°C = 273 + 25 = 298K

Now using formula, PV = nRT

⇒P = nRT/V

= (0.017 × 0.0821 × 298)/(0.435)

= 0.956

Now we know, 1 atm = 760 mmHg

So, 0.8267 atm = 0.956 × 760 mmHg = 726.56 mmHg (nearest to given answer this has happened because we take average value of molecular mass and others.)

Therefore the pressure exerted by the has is 725.04 mm Hg
