Question

What is the density of an ideal gas at 4 KPa pressure having a molecular wt. of 28 gms ? If the PV value for 1 mole of gas is 8000 (Pa)(cm^3).

(a) 14 g/cm^3

(b) 28 g/cm^3

(c) 44 g/cm^3

(d) 88 g/cm^3

This question was addressed to me in my homework.

This is a very interesting question from Ideal gas in division Material Balances for Multi-Unit Systems and Ideal and Real Gases of Chemical Process Calculation

Answer 1

Right choice is (a) 14 g/cm^3

To explain: ρ = PM/RT and PV = nRT.
