Use the ideal gas law, PV=nRT to solve. R=0.0821

If I have 15 moles of gas at a temperature of 299K and a volume of 92L, what is the pressure of the gas?

Answer:

According to the ideal gas law equation,

PV = nRT (here, P = 5.5 atm, V = 10L, T = 298K, R = 0.0821 atmL/mol K)

or, n = RT/PV = (0.0821 X 298)/(5.5 X 10) = 0.44 moles of He gas

Answer:

The pressure of the gas=4.002 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

R=0.0821

Number of moles, n=15

Temperature, T=299 K

Volume of gas, V=92 L

We have to find the pressure of the gas.


PV=nRT

Substitute the values


P* 92=15* 0.0821* 299


P=(15* 0.0821* 299)/(92)


P=4.002 atm

Hence, the pressure of the gas=4.002 atm
