Consider the quantity of an ideal gas where M is the mass of the gas. It depends on the
In quantity ,
M=mass of the gas
k= Boltzmann constant
t= temperature
p=pressure
V=volume
We know ideal gas equation
pV=nRt
Where V= volume of gas
R=gas constant =8.3JK-1mol-1
t=temperature
n=number of moles of gas
p=pressure of gas.
Gas constant R=kNA
Where k=Boltzmann constant
NA=Avogadro number
So, we can ideal gas equation as
pV=nkNAt
Now, we know that
n=number of molecules of gas ……(ii)
Therefore, from equation (i) and (ii)
Number of molecules of gas= …. (iii)
Using equation (iii) quantity becomes
Hence, quantity depends on the nature of gas.
