Chapter 16, Problem 6Q

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Thevolume of carbon dioxide gas formed in mL from 20 g of sucrose at 25 °C and 1 atm pressure needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

The number of moles can be calculated from mass and molar mass as follows:

  $n=\frac{m}{M}$

Here, m is mass and M is molar mass.

The ideal gas equation is represented as follows:

  $PV=nRT$

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