A room is 6.4 m by 5.5 m by 3 m.
1) If the air pressure in the room is 1 atm and the temperature is 301 K, find the number of moles of air in the room.
2) If the temperature rises by 7 K and the pressure remains constant, how many moles of air leave the room ?
Solution
Volume of room, V =6.4 x 5.5 x 3 m^3 = 105.6 m^3
1) P = 1 atm = 101325 Pa
T = 301 K
Applying, P V = n R T
(101325) (105.6) = n (8.314)(301)
n = 4275.67 moles
2) now T = 301 +7 = 308 K
nf = P V / R T = (101325) (105.6) / (8.314 x 308) = 4178.5 moles
hence n - nf = 97.2 moles left the room.
