  • Calculating Hydrogen Gas Volume: A Step-by-Step Guide
    We can use the ideal gas law to calculate the number of moles of hydrogen gas that occupy 1.55 L at 607 K and 2.99 ATM. The ideal gas law is:

    $$PV = nRT$$

    where:

    * P is the pressure in atmospheres (atm)

    * V is the volume in liters (L)

    * n is the number of moles of gas

    * R is the ideal gas constant (0.08206 L⋅atm/mol⋅K)

    * T is the temperature in Kelvin (K)

    Rearranging the ideal gas law to solve for n, we get:

    $$n = \frac{PV}{RT}$$

    Substituting the given values into the equation, we get:

    $$n = \frac{(2.99 \ atm)(1.55 \ L)}{(0.08206 \ L⋅atm/mol⋅K)(607 \ K)} = 0.0798 \ mol$$

    To convert moles to grams, we need to multiply the number of moles by the molar mass of hydrogen gas. The molar mass of hydrogen gas is 2.016 g/mol. Therefore, the mass of hydrogen gas that occupies 1.55 L at 607 K and 2.99 ATM is:

    $$mass = n × molar \ mass = (0.0798 \ mol)(2.016 \ g/mol) = 0.161 \ g$$

    Therefore, 0.161 grams of hydrogen gas would occupy 1.55 L at 607 K and 2.99 ATM.
