Practice AP Chemistry 3.4 questions on using the ideal gas law and related relationships to calculate pressure, volume, temperature, moles, and mixtures.
Complete Lewis diagrams and some physical properties for compounds X and Y are given.

The mixture is heated to 198°C in a sealed, rigid 12.5 L container, at which point both
substances are gases and the total pressure in the container is 2.30 atm. Calculate the number
of moles of gas particles in the container.
| D | For the correct calculated value: \[ \begin{aligned} | P V=n R T |
|---|---|---|
| n=\frac{P V}{R T}=\frac{(2.30 ~atm)(12.5 ~L)}{\left(0.08206 \frac{~L \cdot ~atm}{~K \cdot ~mol}\right)(471 ~K)}=0.744 ~mol \end{aligned} \] | Point 04 |
