Data Given:
Pressure = P = 0.5 atm
Volume = V = 2.0 L
Temperature = T = 50 °C + 273 = 323 K
Moles = n = ?
Solution:
Let suppose the gas is acting Ideally, Then According to Ideal Gas Equation.
P V = n R T
Solving for n,
n = P V / R T
Putting Values,
n = (0.5 atm × 2.0 L) ÷ (0.0821 atm.L.mol⁻¹.K⁻¹ × 323 K)
n = 0.0377 mol
