Question

I have 2 5.0 L containers of STP. Container one is fluorine and Container 2 contains Chlorine. Which container will have a larger number of molecules of gas? Larger number of moles of gas? Larger amount of mass of gas? I have 2 5.0 L containers of STP. Container one is fluorine and Container 2 contains Chlorine. Which container will have a larger number of molecules of gas? Larger number of moles of gas? Larger amount of mass of gas? Which container will have a larger number of molecules of gas? Larger number of moles of gas? Larger amount of mass of gas?

Explanation / Answer

At constant temperature, pressure, and volume each gas contain equal no. of mole irrespective of the nature of gas according to Avogadro hypothesis.

so each container contains the same no. of the mole of gas.

no. of mole= mass/ molecular mass.

mass of gas = no. of mole * molecular mass.

the molecular mass of chlorine is greater than the fluorine. So chlorine contains a large amount of the gas.
