Answer :

1) List known values.

sample: 0.600 mol

Pressure: 1.0 atm

Temperature: 15ºC

Constant: 0.082057 L⋅atm⋅K−1⋅mol−1

List unknown values

Volume:

2) Set the equation and solve for V.

[tex]PV=\text{nRT}[/tex][tex]\frac{PV}{P}=\frac{nRT}{P}[/tex][tex]V=\frac{nRT}{P}[/tex]

3) Converting to proper units.

15ºC + 273.15 = 288.15 K

4) Plug in known values.

n: 0.600 mol

R: 0.082057 L⋅atm⋅K−1⋅mol−1

T: 288.15 K

P: 1.0 atm

[tex]V=\frac{(0.600\text{mol)}(0.082057L\cdot\text{atm}\cdot K^{-1}\cdot mol^{-1})(288.15\text{ K)}}{1.0\text{ atm}}=14.18683\text{ L}[/tex]

The sample will occupy a volume of 14.19 L.
