Answer:

Density = 2.137 gram per liter (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Gaseous fuel Butane C4H10

Pressure = 0.897 atm

Temperature = 24°C = 24 + 273 = 297 k

Find:

Density of butane gas

Computation:

We know that molar mass of butane = 58.12 g/mol

Density = [molar mass x pressure] / Rt

Density = [58.12 x 0.897] / [0.0821 x 297]

Density = [52.13] / [24.3837]

Density = 2.137 gram per liter (Approx.)
