1. The lid is tightly sealed on a rigid flask containing 4.20 L O2 at 27 °C and 0.969 atm. If the flask is
heated to 81 °C, what is the pressure in the flask?
2. A sample of carbon dioxide gas at 125°C and 248 torr occupies a volume of 275 L. What will the gas
pressure be if the volume is increased to 321 L at 125°C?
3. A balloon is filled with N2 gas to a volume of 1.92 L at 37 °C. The balloon is placed in liquid nitrogen
until its temperature reaches -142 °C. Assuming the pressure remains constant, what is the volume of
the cooled balloon?
4. A sample of nitrogen gas is confined to a 14.0 L container at 375 torr and 37.0°C. How many grams of
nitrogen gas are in the container?
5. What volume of Ar at 35 °C and 1.75 atm contains the same number of particles as 0.655 L of Cl2 at
15 °C and 3.00 atm?
6. A flask with a volume of 3.16 L contains 9.33 grams of an unknown gas at 32.0°C and 1.00 atm. What
is the molar mass of the gas?
7. A 48.0 L gas cylinder contains 498 g H2 at 25 °C. What is the pressure inside the cylinder?
8. If the density of N2 gas in a flask is 0.243 g/L at 18 °C, what is the pressure of nitrogen in the flask
if it is heated to 36 °C?
9. Propane, C3H8, reacts with excess oxygen to produce carbon dioxide gas and water. What volume of
CO2, measured at 27.2 °C and 0.918 atm is produced from the reaction of 10.1 g C3H8 with excess
oxygen? Hint: Write a balanced equation.
10. Magnesium metal (0.100 mol) and a volume of aqueous hydrochloric acid that contains 0.500 mol of
HCl are combined and react to completion. How many liters of hydrogen gas, measured at STP, are
produced?
Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) → MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)
11. Ammonia gas is synthesized according to N2(g) + 3 H2(g) → 2 NH3(g).

15. (a) A sample of hydrogen gas was collected in a large gas buret. The pressure in the buret was
measured as 764.2 torr, the temperature was 23.0 °C, and the buret contained 511 mL of the
collected gas. How many moles of hydrogen were collected?
(b) A sample of hydrogen gas was collected by displacement of water in a large gas buret. The total
pressure in the buret was measured as 764.2 torr, the temperature was 23.0 °C, and the buret
contained 511 mL of the collected gas. How many moles of hydrogen were collected? (At 23.0 °C, the
vapor pressure of water is 21.1 torr.)
16. A gas mixture contains 5.00 liters of a mixture of nitrogen gas and oxygen gas. The total pressure in
the tank is 38.6 atm when the temperature is 25.0 °C, and the mole fraction of oxygen is 0.400. How
much does the oxygen in the tank weigh?
