Ideal Gas Law Activity

1. What is the pressure in atm of a 0.108 mol sample of the gas at a temperature of
20.0°C if its volume is 0.505L?

Answer:

=(20°C + 273/1°C)K = 293 K (kelvin)

PV= nRT

P=nRT/V

P=(0.108 mol)(0.08205 L•atm/ Mole•K)(293K)/0.505L

=2.5963902 L•atm/0.505L

P=5.141366733 atm

P=5.141 atm

2.) 2.34 moles of helium gas are at pressure of 1.70 atm, and the temperature is 41°C.
What is the volume of Gas?

Answer:

V=
P
2.34 x 0.082 x 314
V
1.70

v = 35.44 L.
3). At a certain temperatur, 3.24 moles of CO2 gas at 2.15 atmtake up a volume of
35.28L. What is this temperature ( in celcius)?

Answer:

0.0821 L . atm
R= ––––––––––––––

2.15atm x 35.28 L K . mol

T = –––––––––––––––––– = –––––––––––––––
3.24 mol 0.0821 L . atm
= 285.1436 K  285 K

= 285 – 273

= 12°C

4.) A cylinder of argon gas contains 50.0 L of Ar at 18.4 atm and 127 °C. How many
moles of argon are in the cylinder?
Answer:

PV=nRT

n=PVRT

n=18.4atm⋅50.0L0.082057338L⋅atm⋅K−1⋅mol−1⋅400K

=28.0 mol Ar

The cylinder contains 28.0 mol Ar
