ANSWER SCHEME

QUIZ 5 (STATES OF MATTER)

1. a) Name two gas laws and write down their mathemathical expression.

Boyle’s law

…….(1)

Charles’ law

…….(2)

[2 marks]

b) Use these gas laws to derive the ideal gas equation

or

Where R is the gas constant.

For n moles of gas, we have

Hence, PV = nRT ……..(3)

Equation (3) is called the ideal gas equation.

e) Calculate the relative molecular mass of ethanol from its molecular formula, C2H5OH.

Mr = 2(12.01) + 6(1.01) + 16.00

= 46.08

f) Explain the difference in the values of the relative molecular mass of ethanol in (a)
and (b).

- Ethanol is not an ideal gas
