Study Notes

Calculating the Mass of Oxygen in Air

The tutorial aims to calculate the mass of oxygen in 1 liter of air at 20°C and 1 atm pressure, assuming ideal behavior.
The ideal gas law, PV = nRT, is used to find the number of moles of air (n).
The temperature is converted from Celsius to Kelvin: 20°C + 273.15 = 293.15 K.
The given values for pressure (P = 1.0 atm), volume (V = 1.0 L), temperature (T = 293.15 K), and the ideal gas constant (R = 0.082 L atm mol⁻¹ K⁻¹) are plugged into the formula to calculate the number of moles (n).
The number of moles of air is calculated to be approximately 0.042 mol.
The mole fraction of oxygen (O2) in air is given as 0.22, so the number of moles of oxygen in 1 liter of air is 0.22 x 0.042 mol = 0.00924 mol.
The molecular mass of oxygen is 32 g mol⁻¹, so the mass of oxygen in 1 liter of air is 32 g mol⁻¹ x 0.00924 mol = 0.296 g.
