Stoichiometry and the Gas Laws — Test

Question 8 • Chemistry

If the pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas are known, which can most likely be found by using the ideal gas law?

Answer
A
the standard temperature and pressure
B
the molar mass
C
the molar amount of the gas
D
the partial pressure of the gas

Explanation

The ideal gas law is PV = nRT, where P is pressure, V is volume, T is temperature, and n is the number of moles. With pressure, volume, and temperature known, you can rearrange the equation to find n: n = PV/(RT). Therefore, the quantity found is the molar amount of the gas.
