Question 7 of 15
A sample of gas at 25°C has a volume of 11 L and exerts a pressure of 0.868 atm. How many
moles of gas are there? (R=.0821L atm/mol K)

0.4 moles

Explanation:

Given that:

Volume of gas V = 11L

(since 1 liter = 1dm3

11L = 11dm3)

Temperature T = 25°C

Convert Celsius to Kelvin

(25°C + 273 = 298K)

Pressure P = 0.868 atm

Number of moles N = ?

Note that Molar gas constant R is a constant with a value of 0.00821 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1

Then, apply ideal gas equation

pV = nRT

0.868atm x 11dm3 = n x (0.00821 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1 x 298K)

9.548 atm dm3 = n x 24.47atm dm3mol-1

n = (9.548 atm dm3 / 24.47atm dm3 mol-1)

n = 0.4 moles

Thus, there are 0.4 moles of the gas.

one negative thing it that it can kill water animals. another negative thing is it can cause the destruction of ecosystem. one way water pollution can be reduced is to conserve energy.
