What is the gas pressure (in atm) inside a 1.69-L bulb that contains 0.9-g of Ne at a temperature of 34.1 C? Be sure to report the units as atm.
PV=nRT
Is this not the correct setup?
P=[(0.9/20.18)*0.0821*(273+34.1)]/1.69
Solution
YES IT IS A CORRECT STEP
BECAUSE
We can use the ideal gas equation, PV = nRT to find the pressure P if we know all
the other quantities: V is the volume (here given as 3.5 liters), n the number of moles
of gas (here given as 2.6), T the absolute temperature, which is 273 - 120, or 153
