Answer:

P = 34.1 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles = 10 mol

Volume occupy = 15 L

Temperature = 350°C

Pressure of gas = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will convert the temperature.

350+273 = 623 K

by putting values,

P×15 L = 10 mol ×0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K ×623 K

P = 511.48atm.L/15L

P = 34.1 L
