60 L tank containing 2.5 mol of CH4 . Initially, when Poutside was 1 atm, there was no leakage. But the next day, when the atmospheric pressure dropped to 0.98 atm, the CH4 started to leak out. Assuming the temperature was the same on both days, how much (ideal) methane was left in the tank once the pressures equalized?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given: Volume of tank = 60 L

Initial moles of CH4 = 2.5 mol.

Initial pressure of CH4 = 1.0 atm.

And final pressure of CH4 = 0.98 atm.
