Just use the formula
and plug in the values
For example, If
Find Volume in liters.
P = 17 atm
T = 200 K
n = 2 moles
17V=2(.0821)
PV = nRT
Just use the formula
and plug in the values
For example, If
Find Volume in liters.
P = 17 atm
T = 200 K
n = 2 moles
17V=2(.0821)(200)
PV = nRT
Just use the formula
and plug in the values
For example, If
Find Volume in liters.
P = 17 atm
T = 200 K
n = 2 moles
17V=2(.0821)(200)
PV = nRT
Just use the formula
Now solve the equation
and plug in the values
For example, If
Find Volume in liters.
P = 17 atm
T = 200 K
n = 2 moles
17V=2(.0821)(200)
17V = 32.84
PV = nRT
Just use the formula
Now solve the equation
and plug in the values
For example, If
Find Volume in liters.
P = 17 atm
T = 200 K
n = 2 moles
17V=2(.0821)(200)
17V = 32.84
PV = nRT
Just use the formula
Now solve the equation
