Question

What is the mass of bromine gas if it has a pressure of 720 mmHg, volume of 25mL and a temperature of 18.3 degrees Celsius

Answer 1

Mass = 0.158 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula used,

P V = n R T

Or,

n = P V / R T

Putting values,

n = 0.948 atm . 0.025 L / 0.0821 L.atm.K⁻¹.mol⁻¹ . 291.45

n = 0.00099 mol

Note: we have changed pressure from mmHg to atm, volume from mL to L and temperature from C to K)

Also,

Mass = n . Molecular Mass

Mass = 0.00099 mol × 159.808 g/mol

Mass = 0.158 g
