Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line
To print: Ctrl+PPrint as a list

4 notecards = 1 page (4 cards per page)

Postlab for Gas Law Constant SD

front 1

Using the formula for the ideal gas law and the value for the gas law constant of 0.08206 L.atm/K/mol, what is the volume (in L) of 7.22 grams of dry hydrogen at 25.6 degrees C and 753 torr?

back 1

  • PV = nRT -> V = (nRT) / P

P = 753 torr x (1 atm / 760 torr) = 0.991 atm

n = mass x (1 mol / molar mass) = 7.22 g H2 x (1 mol / 2.02 g H2) = 3.57 mol H2

R = 0.08206 L.atm/K/mol

T = 25.6 degrees C + 273 K = 298.6 K

  • V = (nRT) / P

V = (3.57 mol H2 x 0.08206 L.atm/K/mol x 298.6 K) / 0.991 atm = 88.3 L

WRONG

Answer: 88.6 L

front 2

A student obtains the following data by following an experimental procedure to this one. Based on this data, what is the value of R (in L.atm/mol/K) that would be calculated? Report the result to four significant figures. Use 273.15 K for the temperature conversion.

Pressure of dry H2 = 741.4 mm Hg

Temperature = 21.00 degrees C

Mass of Mg used = 0.04100 g

Volume of H2 = 44.60 ET units

Conversion factor = 0.8850 mL/ET Unit

back 2

  • PV = nRT -> R = (PV) / nT

P = 741.4 mm Hg x (1 atm / 760 mm Hg) = 0.9755 atm

V = 0.8850 mL/ET Unit (fudge factor) x 44.60 ET units x (1 L / 1000 mL) = 0.03947 L

n = mass x (1 mol / molar mass) = 0.04100 g Mg x (1 mol / 24.31 g Mg) = 0.001687 mol Mg

T = 21.00 degrees C + 273.15 K = 294.15 K

  • R = (PV) / nT

R = (0.9755 atm x 0.03947 L) / (0.001687 mol Mg x 294.15 K) = 0.07759 L.atm/mol/K

front 3

Using the formula for the ideal gas law and the value for the gas law constant of 0.08206 L.atm/K/mol, what is the volume (in L) of 6.23 grams of dry hydrogen at 22.6 degrees C and 764 torr?

back 3

  • PV = nRT -> V = (nRT) / P

P = 764 torr x (1 atm / 760 torr) = 1.00526 atm

n = mass x (1 mol / molar mass) = 6.23 g H2 x (1 mol / 2.02 g H2) = 3.08415 mol H2

R = 0.08206 L.atm/K/mol

T = 22.6 degrees C + 273 K = 295.6 K

  • V = (nRT) / P

V = (3.08415 mol H2 x 0.08206 L.atm/K/mol x 295.6 K) / 1.00526 atm = 74.4 L

front 4

A student obtains the following data by following an experimental procedure to this one. Based on this data, what is the value of R (in L.atm/mol/K) that would be calculated? Report the result to four significant figures. Use 273.15 K for the temperature conversion.

Pressure of dry H2 = 738.3 mm Hg

Temperature = 23.00 degrees C

Mass of Mg used = 0.03830 g

Volume of H2 = 44.20 ET units

Conversion factor = 0.8886 mL/ET Unit

back 4

  • PV = nRT -> R = (PV) / nT

P = 738.3 mm Hg x (1 atm / 760 mm Hg) = 0.9714 atm

V = 0.8886 mL/ET Unit (fudge factor) x 44.20 ET units x (1 L / 1000 mL) = 0.03928 L

n = mass x (1 mol / molar mass) = 0.03830 g Mg x (1 mol / 24.31 g Mg) = 0.001575 mol Mg

T = 23.00 degrees C + 273.15 K = 296.15 K

  • R = (PV) / nT

R = (0.9714 atm x 0.03928 L) / (0.001575 mol Mg x 296.15 K) = 0.08180 L.atm/mol/K
