  • Calculate Moles of Gas: Ideal Gas Law & Step-by-Step Solution
    Here's how to calculate the number of moles of gas in the given sample:

    1. Convert Units:

    * Temperature (T): Convert Celsius to Kelvin: 33°C + 273.15 = 306.15 K

    * Pressure (P): Convert kPa to atmospheres (atm): 199 kPa * (1 atm / 101.325 kPa) = 1.96 atm

    2. Use the Ideal Gas Law:

    The Ideal Gas Law is: PV = nRT

    Where:

    * P = Pressure (in atm)

    * V = Volume (in liters)

    * n = Number of moles

    * R = Ideal gas constant (0.0821 L⋅atm/mol⋅K)

    * T = Temperature (in Kelvin)

    3. Solve for 'n' (number of moles):

    Rearrange the Ideal Gas Law to solve for 'n':

    n = PV / RT

    4. Plug in the values and calculate:

    n = (1.96 atm * 4.67 L) / (0.0821 L⋅atm/mol⋅K * 306.15 K)

    n ≈ 0.364 moles

    Therefore, the 4.67 L sample of gas contains approximately 0.364 moles.
