Amouse is placed in a sealed chamber with air at 769.0 torr. this chamber is equipped with enough solid koh to absorb any co2 and h2o produced by the mouse. the gas volume in this chamber is measured to be exactly 2.20 l, the temperature is held constant at 292 k. after two hours the pressure inside the bottle falls to 717.1 torr. what mass of oxygen has the mouse consumed?

The amount of oxygen gas consumed by mouse is 0.202 grams.

Explanation:

We are given:

Initial pressure of air = 769.0 torr

Final pressure of air = 717.1 torr

Pressure of oxygen = Pressure decreased = Initial pressure - Final pressure = (769.0 - 717.1) torr = 51.9 torr

To calculate the amount of oxygen gas consumed, we use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 51.9 torr

V = Volume of the gas = 2.20 L

T = Temperature of the gas = 292 K

R = Gas constant =

n = number of moles of oxygen gas = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

To calculate the mass from given number of moles, we use the equation:

Moles of oxygen gas = 0.0063 moles

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the amount of oxygen gas consumed by mouse is 0.202 grams.

that's what i got you can count the number of atoms

they are all solids.
