The ideal gas law allows us to predict that: As the temperature of a gas increases, the volume of the gas will increase by a proportional amount. If the amount of gas stored inside of a rigid container were increased while the temperature was held constant, the pressure would increase proportionately with the quantity of gas inside the container. As the pressure of a gas increases, the volume of the gas will increase by a proportional amount. If there is a decrease in the quantity of gas stored inside a rigid container that is maintained at constant pressure, the temperature will also decrease proportionately.

A student obtained a mass of 0.266 g CO2 during his experiment. The atmospheric pressure was 751.6 mmHg and the laboratory temperature was 24.1 °C. The flask used in the experiment had a volume of 146.5 mL. Calculate the molar mass of CO2 from the data. Hint: You cannot use the molar mass of CO2 in your calculation since this is what you are looking for... You need to used the ideal gas law to determine the number of moles of CO2, then do the ratio of grams of CO2 over moles of CO2 to determine the experimental molar mass of CO2.
