Answer: The number of moles of gas added to the container are 5.82
Explanation:
Avogadro's law states that volume is directly proportional to number of moles at constant temperature and pressure.
The equation used to calculate number of moles is given by:
[tex]\frac{V_1}{n_1}=\frac{V_2}{n_2}[/tex]
where,
[tex]V_1[/tex] and [tex]n_1[/tex] are the initial volume and number of moles
[tex]V_2[/tex] and [tex]n_2[/tex] are the final volume and number of moles
Putting values in above equation, we get:
[tex]\frac{6.13}{3.51}=\frac{16.3}{n_2}\\\\n_2=9.33[/tex]
number of moles of gas added to the container = (9.33-3.51) = 5.82
Thus the number of moles of gas added to the container are 5.82
