The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the number of molecules present in a volume of gas at 0°C and 760 mm pressure, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Given Data:** - Volume (V) = 22.4 cm³ - Pressure (P) = 760 mm Hg = 1 atm - Temperature (T) = 0°C = 273 K 2. **Convert Volume to Liters:** - Since the volume is given in cm³, we need to convert it to liters. - 1 liter = 1000 cm³ - Therefore, \( V = \frac{22.4 \, \text{cm}^3}{1000} = 0.0224 \, \text{L} \) 3. **Use the Ideal Gas Equation:** - The ideal gas equation is given by: \[ PV = nRT \] - Where: - P = pressure in atm - V = volume in liters - n = number of moles - R = ideal gas constant = 0.0821 L·atm/(K·mol) - T = temperature in Kelvin 4. **Rearranging the Ideal Gas Equation to Find Moles (n):** - Rearranging gives: \[ n = \frac{PV}{RT} \] 5. **Substituting the Values:** - Substitute P = 1 atm, V = 0.0224 L, R = 0.0821 L·atm/(K·mol), and T = 273 K into the equation: \[ n = \frac{(1 \, \text{atm}) \times (0.0224 \, \text{L})}{(0.0821 \, \text{L·atm/(K·mol)}) \times (273 \, \text{K})} \] 6. **Calculating the Number of Moles:** - Calculate the denominator: \[ 0.0821 \times 273 \approx 22.4143 \] - Now, calculate n: \[ n \approx \frac{0.0224}{22.4143} \approx 0.001 \, \text{moles} \] 7. **Calculating the Number of Molecules:** - To find the number of molecules, use Avogadro's number (\( N_A \approx 6.022 \times 10^{23} \, \text{molecules/mole} \)): \[ \text{Number of molecules} = n \times N_A = (0.001) \times (6.022 \times 10^{23}) \approx 6.022 \times 10^{20} \, \text{molecules} \] ### Final Answer: The number of molecules present in the volume of gas is approximately \( 6.022 \times 10^{20} \) molecules.
