Chapter 6, Problem 6.167AP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The mass and volume of gas is given to be $2.889\text{g}$ and $940\text{mL}$ at $735\text{torr}$ and $31°\text{C}$. The molar mass of the gas is to be calculated.

Concept introduction: The ideal gas law states that “the volume $\left(V\right)$ occupied by numbers of moles $\left(n\right)$ of any gas has a pressure $\left(P\right)$ at temperature $\left(T\right)$ in Kelvin”.

To determine: The molar mass of the gas.
