the volume of a gas at 0 degree C and 700mm Pressure is 760 cc. the no. of molecules present in this volume is___?
Use the formula PV= nRT
P = 700 mm Hg = 0.921 atm
V = 760 cc = 0.76 L
R = 0.0821 L atm K-1 mol-1
T = 0º C = 273 K
Now putting the values we get :
n = PV/RT
= 0.921 atm x 0.76 L / 0.0821 L atm K-1 mol-1 x 273 K
= 0.0312 moles
Number of molecules = 0.0312 moles x 6.023 x 1023
= 1.9 x 1022 molecules
P = 700 mm Hg = 0.921 atm
V = 760 cc = 0.76 L
R = 0.0821 L atm K-1 mol-1
T = 0º C = 273 K
Now putting the values we get :
n = PV/RT
= 0.921 atm x 0.76 L / 0.0821 L atm K-1 mol-1 x 273 K
= 0.0312 moles
Number of molecules = 0.0312 moles x 6.023 x 1023
= 1.9 x 1022 molecules
