Question

The correct value of the gas constant ‘R’ is close to :
(a) 0.082 litre-atmosphere K
(b) 0.082 litre-atmosphere K⁻¹ mol⁻¹
(c) 0.082 litre – atmosphere⁻¹ K mol⁻¹
(d) 0.082 litre⁻¹ atmosphere ⁻¹ K mol

Answer 1

Answer:

b) 0.082 litre-atmosphere K-1 mol-1

Answer 2

(b) 0.082 litre-atmosphere K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

Explanation:

The gas constant is denoted by the symbol R. It is equivalent to the Boltzmann constant, but expressed in units of energy per temperature increment per mole.

The value of gas constant R is 8.314 J / mol·K.

or 0.08205 Litre - atmosphere mol-1 K-1.

Option B is the answer.
