Finishing up the Gas UnitData Calculations: Trial 1

Calculate pressure of gas sample:PT = Pgas + Pwater

759.0 mmHg = Pgas - 23.1 mmHg

Pgas = 735.9 mmHg or 0.9683 atm

Calculate mass of butane in gas sample:Mass of butane = Initial mass – Final mass

Calculate moles of butane in gas sample:PV = nRT

Calculate molar mass for this Trial:Mass of butane / Moles of butane

Trial 1

Atmospheric Pressure (PT)

759.0 mmHg

Water Temperature in K 24.5 C or 297.5 K

Water vapor pressure at temperature recorded.

23.1 mmHg

Initial Mass of Lighter

16.9523 g

Final Mass of Lighter.

16.8501g

Volume of gas sample in Liters

47.80 mL or0.04780 L

Calculations: Trial 1Calculate pressure of gas sample:

Calculate mass of butane in gas sample:Mass of butane = Initial mass – Final mass16.9523 g – 16.8501 g = 0.1022 g

Calculate moles of butane in gas sample:PV = nRT
