Answer:

0.008 moles of gas are present

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of gas = 1.75 L

Number of moles =  ?

Temperature of gas = 58°C

Pressure of gas = 12.5 KPa

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will convert the temperature.

58+273 = 331 K

Pressure = 12.5/101 = 0.12 atm

by putting values in formula:

0.12 atm× 1.75 L = n× 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K   ×331 K

0.21 atm.L = n× 27.17atm.L/ mol

n = 0.21 atm.L /27.17atm.L/ mol

n = 0.008 mol
