  • Calculate Moles of Gas: Ideal Gas Law Application
    The number of moles in a gas sample can be calculated using the ideal gas law:

    PV = nRT

    Where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, R is the ideal gas constant, and T is the temperature.

    Given the following values:

    P = 0.914 atm

    V = 0.325 L

    T = 19 deg Celsius = 292 K

    R = 0.08206 L atm / mol K

    We can rearrange the ideal gas law to solve for n:

    n = PV / RT

    Substituting the given values:

    n = (0.914 atm)(0.325 L) / (0.08206 L atm / mol K)(292 K)

    n = 0.0129 moles

    Therefore, there are 0.0129 moles of gas in the 0.325 liter container at the given conditions.
