A pressure of 850 torr is exerted by 28.6 grams of sulfur dioxide at a temperature of 40 degrees. Calculate the volume of the vessel holding the gas

Question

Please solve this question

Answer 1

PV = nRT

n = moles sulfur dioxide = 28.6 g/ molar mass SO₂

plug this into above formula and sole for V

Remember to change T to degrees K (273+40)

Convert 850 torr to atm (850/760)

Use correct R value (0.0821 Latm/Kmole)
