What number of moles of oxygen would exert a pressure of 10 atm at 320 K in an 8.2 dm3 cylinder? [R=0.082 atm dm-3 mol-1 K-1]

  • A. 0.32
  • B. 1.52
  • C. 3.13
  • D. 31.25

Correct Answer: C. 3.13

Explanation

P = 10atm, T= 320K, V= 8.2dm3 PV =nRT n = P * V/R * T 10 * 8.2/0.082 * 320 = 82/26.24 n = 3.13
