Question

One mole of hydrogen gas occupies 24.45 L and is at standard temperature and pressure (STP, 25 C and 1 atm), what is the value of the Ideal Gas Constant for this situation?Immersive Reader

Answer 1

`R=0.082(atm*L)/(mol*K)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

In this case, by knowing that hydrogen gas could be considered as an ideal gas, the formula we use is:

`PV=nRT`

In which we are asked to compute the ideal gas constant R by knowing that the temperature must be used in absolute units (Kelvins), thus we obtain:

`R=(PV)/(nT)=(1atm*24.45L)/(1mol*(25+273.15)K) \\\\R=0.082(atm*L)/(mol*K)`

Best regards.
