Chapter 1, Problem 1.36NP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:The molar mass of gas in a glass bulb needs to be determined if the volume of glass bulb is 0.198 L that contains 0.457 g of gas at $\text{759}\text{.0 torr}$ and $\text{134}\text{.0}°\text{C}$ .

Concept Introduction: The ideal gas equation is the equation which gives the relations between P,V, n and T of gases. It can be written as:

  $PV=nRT$

Here, P is pressure, V is volume, n is number of moles, R is Universal gas constant and T is temperature.

Also, number of moles is related to mass and molar mass as follows:

  $n=\frac{m}{M}$

Here, n is number of moles, m is mass and M is molar mass.
