The density of a certain gas is 1.98gdm-3 at s.t.p. What is the molecular mas of the gas?
A
44.0 g
B
54.0 g
C
26.0 g
D
31.0 g
correct option: a
Density = mass/volume
∴ 1.98 = molecular mass/22.4
molecular mass = 1.98 * 22.4 = 44.35 ≅ 44.05
Users' Answers & Comments∴ 1.98 = molecular mass/22.4
molecular mass = 1.98 * 22.4 = 44.35 ≅ 44.05
