moles and volume proportion
V/n=V/n
What is the volume occupied by 14.6 g of argon gas at a pressure of 1.50 atm and a temperature of 444 K ?
this is an ideal gas law questtion
A weather balloon is inflated to a volume of 29.8 L at a pressure of 733 mmHg and a temperature of 26.4 ∘C. The balloon rises in the atmosphere to an altitude where the pressure is 385 mmHg and the temperature is -13.9 ∘C.
Assuming the balloon can freely expand, calculate the volume of the balloon at this altitude.
(steps)
- find the number of moles with pvnrt
2. use that to find the volume at the new temp
Which of the following gas samples, all at the same temperature, will have the greatest pressure?
a. 5 medium particles moving around
b. 10 small particles moving around
c. 8 large particles
Box b has the largest number of molecules floating around in it. Consequently it also has the largest velocity for each molecule. Force is mass times acceleration, thus the pressure is the total force due to the collisions of the particles in the wall. Thus b has the largest pressure.

Use the molar volume of a gas at STP to calculate the density (in g/L) of carbon monoxide gas at STP.
The standard molar volume of a gas is 22.414 L/mol , and the molar mass of CO is 28.01 g/mol. The density is found by dividing the mass of a gas by its volume: d=m/V. Therefore, you can divide the molar mass of a gas (in grams per mole) by its molar volume (in liters per mole) to determine its density (in grams per liter).
An experiment shows that a 110 mL gas sample has a mass of 0.173 g at a pressure of 751 mmHg and a temperature of 31 ∘C.
What is the molar mass of the gas?
The molar mass can be determined from the mass of the sample and the number of moles of the sample. The number of moles is determined by using the ideal gas law.
Total pressure
is equal to the sum of the partial pressures
A gas mixture contains each of the following gases at the indicated partial pressures: N2, 200 torr ; O2, 100 torr ; and He, 100 torr .
P =
400
torr
given the partial pressures,find the total mass of each of the elements
- use partial pressure and the ideal gas law to find the number of moles of each gas
- use the molar mass to calculate the mass of each individual element in grams
mole fraction
the amount of element X / the total amount of the elements
What volume of air contains 11.4 g of oxygen gas at 273 K and 1.00 atm?
find the oxygen in terms of moles
find the volume with that many moles
use the mole fraction to adjust a bit
given the EQ and the amount of the reactants
want the final volume of the gas produced
find the amount of product using limiting reaction chemistry
use that to calculate the final volume of the product with the ideal gas law
