Chapter 11 Problem 60P

Question

What is the pressure in a 20.0-L cylinder filled with 0.683 mol of nitrogen gas at 325 K?

Solution

Step 1 of 2

Given:

Volume = 20.0 liters

Temperature = 325 K

Amount of Nitrogen = 0.683 mol

Want to know: Pressure

Explanation:

According to the ideal gas law, it is known that

\(P \cdot V=n \cdot R \cdot T\)

Since we are looking for Pressure, we will rearrange the equation (by dividing by Volume on both sides:

\(\mathrm{P}=\frac{n R T}{V}\)

R is the gas constant and for equations where we are working in liters and atmospheres is \(0.08205746\mathrm{\ I}\cdot\mathrm{atm}\mathrm{\ mo}\mathrm{l}^{-1}\cdot\mathrm{K}^{-1}\)
