Use the ideal gas law to solve for the moles of a gas that occupies 25.61 L at 5.13 am and 27 00. (R =
0.0826 L*atmlmol*K Select one: v O \323 moles O 2.46 moles O 5.32 moles O 1.23 moles
the ideal gas equation is
Pressure * Volume = moles * R * Temperature
where:
Pressure is in atmospheres
Volume is in liters
R is the gas constant = 0.0826 L*atm/K mol
Temperature in Kelvin
In this case we want to find the number of moles so rearrange the equation to get moles:
moles = Pressure * volume / [R * Temperature]
given information:
Pressure = 5.13 atm
Volume = 25.61 L
Temperature = 27 C
Change Celsius to Kelvin
Kelvin = Celsius + 273.15
Kelvin = 27 + 273.15
Kelvin = 300.15 K
plug in the values in the equation
moles = (5.13 atm*25.61 L) / (0.0826 * 300.15)
moles = 5.299178
The most suitable answer is
"5.32 moles"
