The molar mass of the gas is (4) 70.
Given: The density of a gas at 25°C and 12 bar is the same as that of carbon monoxide gas at 30 bar.
To Find: The molar mass of the gas.
Solution:
- We know that using the relationship of density of the substance at temperature T, we have;
Density = Mp / RT ...(1)
Where, M = molar mass, p = pressure, R = gas constant, T = temperature.
Coming to numerical, we see that temperature is constant and density is the same in both cases.
So, let the molar mass of gas be 'M'.
We are given, a molar mass of Carbon monoxide gas ( Mco ) = 28 g
The pressure of Carbon monoxide gas (Pco) = 30 bar
The pressure of gas ( Pg ) to be found = 12 bar
So, we can say that;
M × Pg = Mco × Pco
⇒ M × 12 = 28 × 30
⇒ M = 70
Hence, the molar mass of the gas is (4) 70.
