Chapter 13, Problem 105A

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The value of ideal gas constant is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

To calculate the value, standard value of gas constant is used.

Answer to Problem 105A

The value is $8.314\times {10}^6\frac{c{m}^3-Pa}{K-mol}$

Explanation of Solution

The value for gas constant is:

$\begin{array}{l}R=8.314\frac{L-kPa}{K-mol}\\ 1L=1000c{m}^3\\ 1kPa=1000Pa\\ \therefore R=8.314\times {10}^6\frac{c{m}^3-Pa}{K-mol}\end{array}$

Conclusion

The value is gas constant is $8.314\times {10}^6\frac{c{m}^3-Pa}{K-mol}$
