Determination of molar mass using the ideal gas law

Product No: P3010401

Principle

All gases may be considered, to a first approximation, to obey the ideal gas equation which relates the pressure p, volume V, temperature T and amount of substance n of a gas. The amount of gas n is expressed as the number of moles and is equal to m / M where m is the mass of gas present and M is the mass of one mole of the gas. The volume occupied by a known mass of gas is to be measured at a given temperature and pressure, so that the ideal das equation can be used to estimate the molar mass of the gas.

Tasks

Determine the molar masses of the gases helium, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and methane.
