Answer:

pressure of the oxygen gas is 7.88atm

Explanation:

Moles of oxygen in cylinder  =  2.80 mol

volume=8.58L

temperature=294K

molar gas constant(R)= 0.0821 L atm / (mol K)

The pressure is calculated using ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

making Pressure subject of the formula

P = nRT /V

  = 2.80× 0.0821 ×294  /8.58 L

P = 7.88 atm

Answer:

7.88 atm

Explanation:

This question is a very straight forward Question, we have given almost all the parameters needed to solve the question. The parameters given in the question are: Number of moles of oxygen gas = 2.80 mol, the volume of the cylinder= 8.58 L, pressure of the 02 = ???( not given) and the gas temperature = 294 K.

We are going to use the formula for the ideal gas law below to solve this question:

PV = nRT.

Where P = pressure, V = volume , n= number of moles, R= gas constant and T= temperature.

nRT/ V= P.

P= 2.80 × 0.0821 × 294/ 8.58.

P= 67.58472÷ 8.58.

P= 7.87700699300699300.

P= 7.88 atm.
