Which gas would occupy more volume at a constant temperature and pressure, 1.5 g of n2 gas or 1.5 g of o2 gas?

Respuesta :

The 1.5 g of [tex]N_{2}[/tex] would occupy more volume at a constant temperature and pressure .

Calculation ,

So, to find volume occupy by the  1.5 g of nitrogen gas or 1.5 g of oxygen gas we have to calculate number of moles of each first .

Number of moles of nitrogen gas = given mass/molar mass = 1.5 g/14 g/mol

Number of moles of nitrogen = 0.107 mole

Number of moles of oxygen gas =  given mass/molar mass = 1.5 g/16 g/mol

Number of moles of oxygen gas =  0.093 mole

According to ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

Where , P is pressure of the gas

V  is volume of the gas

n  is number of moles of the gas

R  is gas constant of the gas

T  is temperature of the gas

According to ideal gas equation, at constant temperature and pressure the volume is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas .

So , number of moles of nitrogen is greater than oxygen .

Therefore , nitrogen gas would occupy more volume at a constant temperature and pressure.
