at a certain temperature and pressure, 1 l of co2 gas weighs 2.05 g. what is the mass of 1 l of ch4 gas at the same temperature and pressure?

Respuesta :

The mass of 1 L of CH₄ gas at the same temperature and pressure as 1 L of CO₂ gas that weighs 2.05 g is 0.744 g

The mass of 1 L of CH₄ gas can be calculate as follows:

Based on Avogadro's Law, the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to the number of moles (or number of molecules) of that gas at constant temperature.

Gas volume does not depend on gas type

Using this law, we can change the state like this:

CO₂ moles = CH₄ moles (because they occupy the same volume).

first we must find the CO₂ moles

n = g / Molar mass

nCO₂ = 2.05 / 44 g = 0. 0465 moles

so we can find mass of CH₄

g CH₄ = n X mass molar

gCH₄ = 0. 0465 moles X 16 g/mol

g CH₄ = 0.744 g

Therefore,  the mass of 1 L of CH₄ gas at the same temperature and pressure as 1 L of CO₂ gas that weighs 2.05 g is 0.744 g
