Answer:
10.656 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of oxygen = ?
Volume of container = 3.33 L
Pressure of gas = 2.46 atm
Temperature = 27°C
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.
27+273 = 300 K
Now we will put the values in formula.
n = PV/RT
n = 2.46 atm × 3.33 L / 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K × 300 K
n = 8.192 atm. L /24.63 atm.L/ mol
n = 0.333 mol
Mass in grams:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.333 mol × 32 g/mol
Mass = 10.656 g
