Combined Gas Law Problems

1) A sample of sulfur dioxide at 40°C and 720 mm Hg occupies 652 mL. At STP (0°C and 760 mm Hg) it would occupy 540 mL. 2) A sample of argon initially at 0.92 atm and 5.0 dm3 was measured at 30°C, 5.7 L, and 800 mm Hg. Its initial temperature was -41°C. 3) Hydrogen at STP occupying 322 L had an initial volume of 197 L at 37°C and 0.69 atm.

Combined Gas Law Problems

1) A sample of sulfur dioxide occupies a volume of 652 mL at 40. C and


720 mm Hg. What volume will the sulfur dioxide occupy at STP?

2) A sample of argon has a volume of 5.0 dm3 and the pressure is 0.92 atm.
If the final temperature is 30. C, the final volume is 5.7 L, and the final
pressure is 800. mm Hg, what was the initial temperature of the argon?

3) 322 L of hydrogen occupies a volume of 197 L at STP. If the initial


temperature of the hydrogen was 37 C, what was its initial pressure?

4) The initial temperature of a 1.00 liter sample of argon is 20. C. The pressure
is decreased from 720 mm Hg to 360 mm Hg and the volume increases to
2.14 liters. What was the change in temperature of the argon?

5) A sample of nitrogen gas occupies a volume of 2.00 L at 756 mm Hg and 0.00 C.


The volume increases by 2.00 L and the temperature decreases to 137 K. What
is the final pressure exerted on the gas?

6) A 20. L container is filled with helium and the pressure is 150 atm and the
temperature is 30. C. How many 5.0 L balloons can be filled when the
temperature is 22 C and the atmospheric pressure is 755 mm?
Solutions

1) P1 = 720 mm P2 = 760 mm

V1 = 652 mL V2 = ?

T1 = 40. C + 273 = 313 K T2 = 0 C + 273 = 273 K

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

V2 = P1V1/T1 x T2/P2

V2 = 720 mm x 652 mL x 273 K/(313 K x 760 mm) = 540 mL SO2

2) P1 = 0.92 atm P2 = 800. mm

V1 = 5.0 dm3 V2 = 5.7 L

T1 = ? T2 = 30. C + 273 = 303 K

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

T1 = P1V1/P2 x T2/V2

T1 = 0.92 atm x 760 mm/1 atm x 5.0 dm3 x 303 K/(800. mm x 5.7 L x 1 dm3/L) =

232 K = -41 C

3) P1 = ? P2 = 1.00 atm

V1 = 322 L V2 = 197 L

T1 = 37 C + 273 = 310 K T2 = 0 C + 273 = 273 K

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

P1 = P2V2/T2 x T1/V1

P1 = 1.00 atm x 197 L x 310 K/(273 K x 322 L) = 0.69 atm


4) P1 = 720 mm P2 = 360 mm

V1 = 1.00 L V2 = 2.14 L

T1 = 20. C + 273 = 293 K T2 = ?

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

T2 = P2V2/P1 x T1/V1

T2 = 360 mm x 2.14 L x 293 K/(720 mm x 1.0 L) = 313 K = 40. C

5) P1 = 756 mm P2 = ?

V1 = 2.00 L V2 = 4.00 L

T1 = 0.0 C + 273 = 273 K T2 = 137 K

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

P2 = P1V1/T1 x T2/V2

P2 = 756 mm x 2.00 L x 137 K/(273 K x 4.00 L) = 190. mm Hg

6) P1 = 150 atm P2 = 755 mm

V1 = 20. L V2 = ?

T1 = 30. C + 273 = 303 K T2 = 22 C + 273 = 295 K

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

V2 = P1V1/T1 x T2/P2

P2 = 150 atm x 20. L x 295 K/(303 K x 755 mm x 1 atm/760 mm) = 2940 L

# balloons = 1 balloon/5.0 L x 2940 L = 588 balloons
