When the temperature of a rigid hollow sphere containing 685 l of helium gas is held at 621 k, the pressure of the gas is 1.89 x 10^3 kpa. how many moles of the helium does the sphere contain? explain how you got the answer.

You have to use the equation PV=nRT.
P=pressure (in this case 1.89x10^3 kPa which equals 18.35677 atm)
1V=volume (in this case 685L)
n=moles (in this case the unknown)
R=gas constant (0.08206 (L atm)/(mol K))
T=temperature (in this case 621 K)
with the given information you can rewrite the ideal gas law equation as n=PV/RT.
n=(18.35677atm x 685L)/(0.08206atmL/molK x 621K)
n=246.8 moles
