A cylinder with a moveable piston contains 0.552 mol of gas and has a volume of 259 mL . Part A What will its volume be if an additional 0.232 mol of gas is added to the cylinder? (Assume constant temperature and pressure.) View Available Hint(s)

The new volume will be 367mL

Explanation:

Using PV = nRT

V1 = 259mL = 0.000259L

n1 = 0.552moles

At constant temperature and pressure, the value is

P * 0.000259 = 0.552 * RT equation 1

= 0.552 / 0.000259

= 2131.274

V2 = ?

n2 = 0.552 + 0.232

n2 = 0.784mole

Using ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

P * V2 = 0.784 * RT equation 2

Combining equations 1 and 2 we have;

V2 = 0.784 / 2131.274

V2 = 0.000367L

V2 = 367mL
