(a) Calculate the mass of nitrogen present in a volume of 3000 cm3if the gas is at 22.0°C and the absolute pressure of 2.0010-13atm is a partial vacuum easily obtained in laboratories. (b) What is the density (in kg/m3) of theN2?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Mass of nitrogen is6.95×10-16kg
  2. Density of N2is 2.32×10-13kg/m3

Step by step solution

01

Ideal Gas Equation

Given data:

V=3000×10-6m3T=295KP=2×10-13atm

Calculating (n) by using the Ideal gas equation

PV=nRTn=PVRTn=2×10-13×1.013×105×3×10-38.315×295n=2.48×10-14

02

Mass of Nitrogen

The mass ofN2is m=n×M

HereM=28×10-3kg/mol

So, the mass is

m=n×M=2.48×10-14×28×10-3=6.95×10-16kg

Mass of nitrogen is6.95×10-16kg.

03

Density of nitrogen

For density ofN2

ρ=mV=6.95×10-163×10-3=2.32×10-13kg/m3

Therefore, Density ofN2 is2.32×10-13kg/m3.
