A metal cylinder with a capacity of 6.0 L is filled with compressed propane (C3H8). The pressure and temperature of the cylinder when it was initially filled were 120 atm and 75 ◦C, respectively. The molar mass of carbon is 12 g·mol−1 and the molar mass of hydrogen is 1 g·mol−1.
a) How many moles of propane are in the cylinder?
b) What is the mass of the propane inside the cylinder?
c) After some time, the cylinder and its contents cool to 25 ◦C. What is the pressure in the
cylinder after it has cooled?
A 5.50-mole sample of NH3 gas is kept in a 1.85-L container at 309 K. If the van der Waals equation is assumed to give the correct answer for the pressure of the gas, calculate the percent error made in using the ideal-gas equation to calculate the pressure. (Use a = 4.17 atm·L2·mol−2 and b = 0.0371 L·mol−1 for the van der Waals equation.)
A student experimentally determines the gas law constant, R, by reacting a small piece of
magnesium with excess hydrochloric acid and then collecting the hydrogen gas over water
in a eudiometer. Based on experimentally collected data, the student calculates R to equal

The student uses the barometric pressure for the lab to calculate R.
The student does not equilibrate the water levels within the eudiometer and the
beaker at the end of the reaction. The water level in the eudiometer is 1-inch
above the water level in the beaker.
The student does not clean the zinc metal with sand paper.
The student notices a large air bubble in the eudiometer after collecting the
hydrogen gas, but does not dislodge it.
