If i contain 3 moles of gas in a container with a volume of 60 liters and at a temperature of 400 k, what is the pressure inside the container?
Accepted Answer
Using the ideal gas law (PV = nRT), we can calculate the pressure (P) inside the container.
P = (n * R * T) / V
where:
n = number of moles of gas (3 moles)
R = ideal gas constant (0.0821 Latm/(molK))
T = temperature in Kelvin (400 K)
V = volume of the container (60 L)
Plugging in the values:
P = (3 moles * 0.0821 Latm/(molK) * 400 K) / 60 L
P = 1.642 atm
Therefore, the pressure inside the container is 1.642 atm.
