How many moles of O, will occupy 1.00 L at a temper- ature of -118°C and a pressure of 49.77 atm?

Moles of O₂ = 3.92

Given

V=1 L

T=-118 °C + 273 = 155 K

P = 49.77 atm

Required

moles of O₂

Solution

the gas equation can be written  

where  

P = pressure, atm  

V = volume, liter  

n = number of moles  

R = gas constant = 0.08206 L.atm / mol K  

T = temperature, Kelvin  

Input the value :

n= PV/RT
