- Given that a sample of air is made up of nitrogen, oxygen, and argon in the mole fractions 0.78 N2, 0.21 O2, and 0.010 Ar, what is the density of air at standard temperature and pressure?arrow_forwardA sample of 3.73 mol of argon is confined at low pressure in a volume at a temperature of 61 C. Describe quantitatively the effects of each of the following changes on the pressure, the average kinetic energy per molecule in the gas, and the root-mean-square speed. (a) The temperature is increased to 177 °C. (b) The volume is tripled. (c) The amount of argon is decreased to 1.96 mol.
