Answer: 86.5 grams

According to the ideal gas equation:'

[tex]PV=nRT[/tex]

P = Pressure of the gas = 4.58 atm

V= Volume of the gas = 13.0 L

T= Temperature of the gas = 385 K      

R= Gas constant = 0.0821 atmL/K mol

n=  moles of gas= ?

[tex]n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{4.58\times 13.0}{0.0821\times 385}=1.88moles[/tex]

Mass of [tex]NO_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mas}}=1.88moles\times 46g/mol=86.5g[/tex]

Thus mass of [tex]NO_2[/tex] is 86.5 grams.

The mass of NO2 contained in a 13.0 L tank at 4.58 atm and 385 K is 86.5g.

HOW TO CALCULATE MASS:

  • The mass of a substance can be calculated by multiplying the number of moles by its molar mass.

  • However, the number of moles will be calculated by using the formula as follows:

PV = nRT

Where;

  1. P = pressure (atm)
  2. V = volume (L)
  3. R = gas law constant (0.0821 atm•L/mol•K)
  4. n = no. of moles (mol)
  5. T = temperature (K)

  • According to this question, V = 13L, T = 385K, n = ?, P = 4.58 ATM

  • n = PV ÷ RT

  • n = (4.58 × 13) ÷ (0.0821 × 385)

  • n = 59.54 ÷ 31.61

  • n = 1.88mol

  • Molar mass of NO2 = 14 + 16(2

= 46g/mol

  • Mass of NO2 = 1.88 × 46

  • Mass of NO2 = 86.5g

  • Therefore, the mass of NO2 contained in a 13.0 L tank at 4.58 atm and 385 K is 86.5g.
