Chapter 14, Problem 2PE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The value of gas constant in terms of $\text{L}\cdot \text{in}\text{. Hg}/\text{mol}\cdot \text{K}$ for gas sample containing $0.659$ mole of gas when a $\text{21}\text{.0-L}$ container is at $\text{33}°\text{C}$ and $\text{23}\text{.6}$ inches of mercury pressure is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

The ideal gas law is the compilation of Charles’s Law $\left(\text{V}\propto \text{T}\right)$, Boyle’s Law $\left(\text{V}\propto \frac{\text{1}}{\text{P}}\right)$ and Avogadro’s Law $\left(\text{V}\propto \text{n}\right)$.

The ideal gas equation resultant of all the ideal gas law’s is shown below.

$\text{PV}=\text{nRT}$
