The air in a bicycle tire is bubbled through water and collected at 25 ∘c. if the total volume of gas collected is 5.30 l at a temperature of 25 ∘c and a pressure of 737 torr , how many moles of gas was in the bicycle tire?

The number of moles of gas in bicycle tire is 0.210 moles

Explanation:

To calculate the moles of gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 737 torr

V = Volume of the gas = 5.30 L

T = Temperature of the gas =

R = Gas constant =

n = number of moles of gas = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the number of moles of gas in bicycle tire is 0.210 moles
