Experiment 3 Molar Mass by Vapor Density

The molar mass (molecular mass) of a volatile substance is determined in this experiment. The mass of a sample of vapor is initially determined. This mass, along with the volume of the container, the pressure, and the temperature, is used with the ideal gas equation to [Pg.283]

the temperature of the water bath used to heat the flask [Pg.283]

the number of milliliters of water required to fill the flask [Pg.283]

There are a variety of ways to do the calculations. Most of these, however, involve the calculation of the number of moles (n) from the ideal gas equation n = PV/RT. The mass of the vapor sample is calculated from the difference between measurements 1 and 2. The temperature (measurement 3) is converted to kelvin. The pressure (measurement 4) is converted to atmospheres. Measurement 5 is converted to liters. Inserting the various numbers into the ideal gas equation allows you to calculate the number of moles. The molar mass is calculated by dividing the mass of the sample by the moles. [Pg.283]

Variations in this experiment usually combine the ideal gas equation with the mass of the sample. [Pg.283]
