Compute the density in units of of an ideal gas under the following conditions:
a) At and Torr pressure (1 Torr = 1mm Hg) this is called loschmidt number.
b) In a vacuum of Torr at room temperature . This number is useful one for the experimentalist to know by heart. (10^-3 Torr = 1 micron)
a 25cm diameter cylinder that is 36cm long contains 60g of oxygen gas at 20 degree c
what is the number density of the oxygen?
(express in molecules per meter cubed)
what is the reading of a pressure gauge attached to the tank?
(express with appropriate units)
