Chapter 8, Problem 45QRT

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Molar mass of metal carbonate has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Ideal gas Equation:

Any gas is described by using four terms namely pressure, volume, temperature and the amount of gas. Thus combining three laws namely Boyle’s, Charles’s Law and Avogadro’s Hypothesis the following equation could be obtained. It is referred as ideal gas equation.

  $\text{PV = nRT}$

Here,

  n is the moles of gas

    P is the Pressure

  V is the Volume

    T is the Temperature

    R is the gas constant

Molar mass can be determined using the given equation,

  $\text{n}\text{= }\frac{\text{m}}{\text{M}}$

Here, n is the number of moles.

  M is the Molar mass.

    m is the Mass.
