A 3.42 gram sample of an unknown gas is found to occupy a volume of 1.90 L at a pressure of 547 mm Hg and a temperature of 33 °C. The molecular weight of the unknown gas is ___ g/mol.

Use the Ideal Gas Law to find the moles of gas first.

Be sure to convert T from Celsius to Kelvin by adding 273.

Also I prefer to deal with pressure in atm rather than mmHg, so divide the pressure by 760 to get it in atm.

PV = nRT —> n = PV/RT
P = 547 mmHg = 547/760 atm = 0.720 atm
V = 1.90 L
T = 33°C = 33 + 273 K = 306 K
R = 0.08206 L atm / mol K

n = (0.720 atm)(1.90 L) / (0.08206 L atm / mol K)(306 K) = 0.0545 mol of gas

Now divide grams by mol to get the molecular weight.

3.42 g / 0.0545 mol = 62.8 g/mol

Ithink the answer is 56.
