The mass of carbon monoxide, CO that must be placed in the 40 L tank is 58.52 g
How to determine the mole of CO
- Volume (V) = 16.8 L
- Pressure (P) = STP = 965 mmHg = 965 / 760 = 1.27 atm
- Temperature (T) = 23 °C = 23 + 273 = 296 K
- Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 atm.L/Kmol
- Number of mole (n) =?
n = PV / RT
n = (1.27 × 40) / (0.0821 × 296)
n = 2.09 moles
How to determine the mass of CO
- Molar mass of CO = 28 g/mole
- Mole of CO = 2.09 moles
- Mass of CO = ?
Mass = mole × molar mass
Mass of CO = 2.09 × 28
Mass of CO = 58.52 g
