Answer :

Sulfur hexafluoride gas has a mass of 2.8 g and a molecular weight of 0.019 when it is collected at in an evacuated flask with volume of 5.0L

To calculate the moles of sulfur hexafluoride gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas: PV =nRT

Given Pressure of sulfur hexafluoride (P) = 0.090 atm

Volume of the sulfur hexafluoride gas (V) = 5.0 L

Gas constant (R) = 0.0821

Temperature of sulfur hexafluoride gas (T) = 14C+273 = 287K

n = PV/RT = 0.090x5/0.0821x287 = 0.019mol

To calculate mass n = given mass/Molar mass

Molar mass of sulfur hexafluoride = 146.0 g/mol

mass = nxM = 0.019x146 = 2.8g
