Determine the volume of one mole of an ideal gas at 25°C and 0.915 kPa. @primeralph is it the same formula here?

OpenStudy (primeralph):

Guess what formula.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

v=ntr

OpenStudy (primeralph):

pv = nrt. You missed the p.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o

OpenStudy (primeralph):

o? No it's p.

OpenStudy (primeralph):

For pressure.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so v=ntr/p

OpenStudy (primeralph):

Yes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok my answer is V=2.24 moles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or v=2.24ml

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@primeralph which sign should it be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ml or moles?

OpenStudy (primeralph):

Volume. mL.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and it 2.24 correct? @primeralph

OpenStudy (primeralph):

I didn't try it, but I trust your judgement by now. I don't even think you need my help. Just get a sheet of the formula, remember units, and you'll be fine.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okey dokey thanks :)

OpenStudy (primeralph):

Hold on.

OpenStudy (primeralph):

What value did you use for R?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.08206

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it correct?@primeralph

OpenStudy (primeralph):

No. That one works when your pressure is given in ATM. Here it's in kPa, so R = 8314.4621

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uh oh I messed up alot of problems then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's ok I will just go fix them later, I am gonna go grab some icecream now :) thanks for all your help!

OpenStudy (primeralph):

You have to look at your units. R varies with units. Look at the table to the right. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_constant

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:) it's ok I will fix it :) thanks for catching that mistake though :)

OpenStudy (primeralph):

You're welcome.
