A 1.15 −g sample of dry ice is added to a 745 −mL flask containing nitrogen gas at a temperature of 25.0 ∘C and a pressure of 720 mmHg . The dry ice is allowed to sublime (convert from solid to gas) and the mixture is allowed to return to 25.0 ∘C. What is the total pressure in the flask?
PV = nRT
molar mass of dry ice (cO2) = 44
no of moles of dry ice = W/G.M.Wt
= 1.15/44 = 0,026 moles
V = 745ml = 0.745L
T = 25C0 = 25+273 = 298K
R =0.0821L-atm/mole-K
P = nRT/V
= 0.026*0.0821*298/0.745 = 0.85384 atm
Pco2 = 0.85384 *760mmhg =648.9mmHg
Total pressure = PN2 + Pdry ice(co2)
= 720+ 648.9 = 1368.9 mmHg >>> answet
