In doing the numerical calculations for the exercises and problems for this chapter, the values of the
ideal-gas constant have been used with the precision given on page 501 of the text,
R = .$1%5 # mol K = 0.0 !0" L atm mol K.
&se of values of these constants with either greater or less precision ma' introduce differences in the third figures of some answers. 18.1: a( n = mtot M = *0.!!5 )g( *%00 10$ )g mol( = 5".$ mol. b( +f the man' wa's to find the pressure, ,-. *1 .$( gives
