    Need help with a chemistry problem

    What is the volume of a sample of gas at STP with a mass of 83g and molar mass at 21g/mol


    and....



    A sample of gas is collected over water at 17*c and 810mm Hg fills he euidometer tube to 41mL. what is the volume of gas at STP (vapor pressure of h20 at 17*c is 14.5)



    converstions must be in atm, torrs, kPa, mmHg and so fourth

    83g x 21g/1mol x 1mol/22.4L = 77.8 L

    i did the first one for ya


    Shhh...I have a....cocker...

      For the first one I got 80.83 cubic decimeters, did I do something wrong?

      I have no idea how to do the second one, sorry.

        STP is 22.4 L per mol.

        vol= liters, when dealing with gas.

                I know that, let me check my math, I used 23 instead of 21, I fixed that and I got 88.53.

                    Since I can't seem to get the answer right I'll say one thing, do you own homework!
