An empty flask has a mass of 0.424 g at 100.° C and 745 mm Hg. If the volume of the flask is 247.3 mL, what is the molar mass of the acetone?

Respuesta :

The molar mass is 53.56 g/mol.

What is molar mass?

The molar mass of a substance is the mass of the substance which contains one mole of a substance.

Given data:

Given volume of flask = V = 247.3 mL = 0.2473 L

Temperature = T = 100 = 373 K

Pressure of the gas = P = 745 mmHg  = 0.9802 atm

Mass of acetone = 0.424 g

R= 0.0821 L.atm [tex]mol^-^1[/tex][tex]K^-^1[/tex]

Assuming the molar mass of acetone to be M g/mol

The ideal gas equation is shown below:

PV=nRT

[tex]PV=\frac{mass}{M} RT[/tex]

Putting all the above data.

M= 53.56 g/mol

Hence, the molar mass is 53.56 g/mol.
