A 3.8 L volume of neon gas (Ne) is at a pressure of 6.8 atm and a temperature of 470 K. The atomic mass of neon is 20.2 g/mol, and the ideal gas constant is R=8.314 J/mol*K. The mass of neon is closest to what?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The mass of neon is 13.534 g.

Explanation:

Given that,

Volume = 3.8 L

Pressure = 6.8 atm

Temperature = 470 K

Atomic mass of neon =20.2 g/mol

Gas constant R = 8.314 = 0.082057 L atm/mol K

We need to calculate the mass of neon

Using equation of gas

[tex]PV=nRT[/tex]

[tex]6.8\times3.8=n\times0.082057\times470[/tex]

[tex]n=\dfrac{6.8\times3.8}{0.082057\times470}[/tex]

[tex]n= 0.670[/tex]

We know that,

[tex]n = \dfrac{m}{molar\ mass}[/tex]

[tex]m = n\times molar\ mass[/tex]

[tex]m=0.670\times20.2[/tex]

[tex]m=13.534\ g[/tex]

Hence, The mass of neon is 13.534 g.
