How many moles of N20 gas would have a volume of 3.8 L at 460 mmHg and 77°C?

We are given:

Volume of gas = 3.8 L

Pressure = 460 mmHg

Temperature = 77°c = (77+273)K = 350K

Converting the pressure to atm:

Pressure(in atm)  = Pressure(in mmHg) / 760

Pressure = 460/760 = 0.6 atm

Finding the number of moles:

using the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT                                         [where R is the universal gas constant]

replacing the given values in this equation

(0.6)(3.8) = n(0.082)(350)

n = (0.6*3.8)/(0.082*350)

n = 0.08 moles

your answer is c) plasma
