Question
Section 16.5 Ideal Gases3.0 mol of gas at a temperature of $-120^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ fills a $2.0 \mathrm{L}$ container. What is the gas pressure?
Step 1
We need to find the pressure (P). We can use the ideal gas law, which is given by: \[PV = nRT\] where R is the ideal gas constant. In this case, we will use R = 0.0821 L·atm/(K·mol) because we want the pressure in atmospheres. Show more…
