The combination of all three

Answer to Problem 84E
The molar mass of unknown gas with mass 2.85 g, volume 750 mL at 760 mm Hg and 100 °C is 116.4 g/mol.
Explanation of Solution
The equation for the combined gas law is given below.
PV=nRT …(1)
Where,
• P is the pressure of unknown gas.
• V is the volume of unknown gas.
• n is the number of moles of unknown gas.
• T is the temperature of unknown gas.
• R is the gas constant.
• V is the volume of unknown gas.
The given value of pressure is 760 mm Hg.
The given value of volume is 750 mL.
The given value of temperature is 100 °C.
The given value of mass is 2.85 g.
The given value of R is 0.0821 L⋅atm/mol⋅K.
The formula of number of moles is shown below.
n(mol)=Mass of unknown gas(g)Molar mass of unknown gas …(2)
Substitute the value of (2) in equation (1) as shown below.
PV=nRTPV=(Mass of unknown gas(g)Molar mass of unknown gas)RT …(3)
Conversion of temperature into Kelvin is shown below.
T=(T(°C)+273.15)K=(100+273.15) K=373.15 K
Conversion of volume into liters is shown below.
1000 mL=1 L1 mL=1 L1000 mL
Value of 750 mL in L is stated below.
750 mL=1 L1000 mL×750 mL=0.75 L
Conversion of 760 mm Hg pressure into atm is shown below.
760 mm Hg=1 atm
The value of P,V,R,T and mass of unknown gas is 1 atm,0.75 L,0.0821 L⋅atm/mol⋅K,373.15 K and 2.85 g respectively.
Substitute the values of P,V,R,T and mass of unknown gas in the equation (3) as shown below.
PV=(Mass of unknown gas(g)Molar mass of unknown gas)RT1 atm×0.75 L=(2.85 gMolar mass of unknown gas)×0.0821 L⋅atm/mol⋅K×373.15 KMolar mass of unknown gas=(2.85 g1 atm×0.75 L)×0.0821 L⋅atm/mol⋅K×373.15 KMolar mass of unknown gas=116.4 g/mol
The molar mass of unknown gas with mass 2.85 g, volume 750 mL at 760 mm Hg and 100 °C is calculated as 116.4 g/mol.
