Incorrect Try Again; 7 attempts remaining

Explanation / Answer

Given

air , of volume v = 0.090 m^3, temperature T = 30 0C = 30+273.15 = 303.15 k

   pressure P = Pa

the no of mole s n = ?

from ideal gas equation PV= nRT

           n = PV/RT
wher R is universal gas constant R = 8.314472 m^3 Pa/ (mol .K)

substituting the values n = (4*10^-11*0.090)/(8.314472*303.15)

           = 1.42827*10^-15

we know that one mole of a gas contains Avagadro no of molecules that N= 6.023*10^23 molecules

   so the no of molecules 1.42827*10^-15 moles contains is

   N = n*6.023*10^23= 1.42827*10^-15*6.023*10^23 = 860247021 molecules
