A mixture of argon and neon has a measured gas density of 1.66 g / L at STP. Assuming ideal‑gas behavior, what is the average molar mass of the mixture?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The average molar mass of the mixture is 37.184 g/mole

Explanation:

Density of mixture = 1.66 g/L

1 mole of mixture contains 22.4 L by volume

Molar Mass of mixture = 1.66g/L × 22.4 L/1 mole = 37.184 g/mole

The average molar mass of the mixture is equal to 37.184 g/moles.

To calculate molar mass of a gas mixture present in a given amount of volume, it is necessary to have knowledge of the molar volume:

                                              [tex]1 mol = 22.4 L[/tex]

Thus, in 22.4L there is 1 mol of an element. In this way, it is enough to relate the value of the molar volume given with the value of the density requested by the question:

                                  [tex]\frac{1.66g}{1L}\times \frac{22.4L}{1mol}[/tex] = [tex]37.184 g/mol[/tex]

So, the average molar mass of the mixture is equal to 37.184 g/moles.
