Explanation / Answer

Q10

corrected pressure can be given by:

Pgas corrected = Patmospheric - Pvapor

Pgas = 764 - 17.5 mm Hg

Pgas = 746.5 mm Hg

Q11

now change to atm via

760 mm Hg = 1 atm

746.5 mm Hg = x atm

x = 746.5/760

x = 0.9822 atm

Q13,

get R

PV = nRT

R = PV/(nT)

R = (0.9822 )(0.46)/(0.015*(293))

R = 0.102801 Latm/molK

Q14

% error is given by

% error = (Theoretical- Experimental) /Theoretical* 100%

% error = (0.0821- 0.102801) /0.0821* 100% = 25% error
