The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of calculating the volume of the vessel containing gas molecules, we will use the Ideal Gas Law, which is given by the equation: \[ PV = nRT \] Where: - \( P \) = Pressure (in atm) - \( V \) = Volume (in m³) - \( n \) = Number of moles of gas - \( R \) = Ideal gas constant (in appropriate units) - \( T \) = Temperature (in Kelvin) ### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of gas.** The number of moles \( n \) can be calculated using the formula: \[ n = \frac{N}{N_A} \] Where: - \( N \) = Number of molecules = \( 4 \times 10^{24} \) - \( N_A \) = Avogadro's number = \( 6.022 \times 10^{23} \, \text{molecules/mol} \) Calculating \( n \): \[ n = \frac{4 \times 10^{24}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}} \approx 6.64 \, \text{moles} \] **Step 2: Convert pressure from atm to pascals (N/m²).** The pressure given is \( 0.03 \, \text{atm} \). To convert this to pascals, we use the conversion factor \( 1 \, \text{atm} = 1.013 \times 10^5 \, \text{N/m}^2 \): \[ P = 0.03 \, \text{atm} \times 1.013 \times 10^5 \, \text{N/m}^2/\text{atm} \approx 3040 \, \text{N/m}^2 \] **Step 3: Use the Ideal Gas Law to find the volume.** Rearranging the Ideal Gas Law to solve for volume \( V \): \[ V = \frac{nRT}{P} \] Where: - \( R = 8.31 \, \text{J/(mol K)} \) - \( T = 50 \, \text{K} \) Substituting the values into the equation: \[ V = \frac{(6.64 \, \text{mol}) \times (8.31 \, \text{J/(mol K)}) \times (50 \, \text{K})}{3040 \, \text{N/m}^2} \] Calculating \( V \): \[ V = \frac{(6.64 \times 8.31 \times 50)}{3040} \approx \frac{2764.2}{3040} \approx 0.91 \, \text{m}^3 \] ### Final Answer: The volume of the vessel is approximately \( 0.919 \, \text{m}^3 \). ---
