The pressure gage on a 2.5-m^3 oxygen tank reads 500 kpa. determine the amount of oxygen in the tank if the temperature is 28°c and the atmospheric pressure is 97 kpa.

19063.6051 g

Explanation:

Pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Gauge Pressure

Atmospheric pressure = 97 kPa

Gauge pressure = 500 kPa

Total pressure = 500 + 97 kPa = 597 kPa

Also, P (kPa) = 1/101.325  P(atm)

Pressure = 5.89193 atm

Volume = 2.5 m³ = 2500 L ( As m³ = 1000 L)

Temperature = 28 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T₁ = (28.2 + 273.15) K = 301.15 K  

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

5.89193 atm × 2500 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 301.15 K  

⇒n = 595.76 moles

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 31.9988 g/mol

Mass = Moles * Molar mass = 595.76 * 31.9988 g = 19063.6051 g

x+2 because it just doubles hon so the pattern can actually tell you the expression.

so for example,

if x=2 then 2+2 is 4

if x=4 then 4+4 is 8

and so on and so forth.

i really hope that this makes sense and you out in a way hon: )
