Amit found that 30g of a gas occupied 1000 c.c at STP.

(a) What will the gram molecular weight and the vapour density of this gas be?

(b) How many molecules of this gas will be present in 44.8 l of it?

Answer

Given,
Mass of gas = 30g
Volume = 1000 c.c = 1dm3 = 1 liter

We know one mole of gas at STP occupies 22.4 l

1 litres of gas at S.T.P. has mass = 30 g

∴ 22.4 litre (molar volume) has mass

= 301\dfrac{30}{1} x 22.4

= 672 g/mol

Vapour density = Molecular mass2\dfrac{\text{Molecular mass}}{2}

= 6722\dfrac{672}{2}

= 336

(b) 22.4 litres of the gas contains 6.023 x 1023 molecules

So, 44.8 litres of the gas contain 2 x 6.023 x 1023

= 12.046 x 10 23 molecules
