Answer:
P = 27.9 atm
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of CO₂ = 25 g
Temperature = 25°C (25+273.15 K = 298.15 K)
Volume of gas = 0.50 L
Pressure of gas = ?
Solution:
Firs of all we will calculate the number of moles of gas,
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 25 g/ 44 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.57 mol
Pressure of gas :
PV = nRT
P= Pressure
V = volume
n = number of moles
R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K
T = temperature in kelvin
P × 0.50 L = 0.57 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K × 298.15 K
P = 13.95 atm.L/ 0.50 L
P = 27.9 atm
