An old 0.500 L lecture bottle of triethylamine (N(CH₂CH₃)₃) was found in a lab and needed for a synthesis reaction. A pressure regulator indicated a pressure of 18.5 psi, and the lab was at room temperature (25.0°C). What mass of vaporized triethylamine in grams was left in the lecture bottle?

Mass of vaporized triethylamine : 2.606 g

Given

0.5 L triethylamine

P = 18.5 psi

T = 25 °C

Required

mass of vaporized triethylamine

Solution

Conversion :

P 18.5 psi = 1,26 atm

T = 25 +273 = 298 K

Ideal gas law :

PV=nRT

n = PV/RT

Input the value :

n = (1.26 atm x 0.5 L) /(0.08205 x 298)

n = 0.0258

MW triethylamine = 101 g/mol

Mass  triethylamine :

= n x MW

= 0.0258 x 101 g/mol

= 2.606 g

mechanics (greek   is that area of science concerned with the behaviour of physical bodies when subjected to forces or displacements, and the subsequent effects of the bodies on their environment. the scientific discipline has its origins in ancient greece with the writings of aristotle and archimedes[1][2][3] (see history of classical mechanics and timeline of classical mechanics). during the early modern period, scientists such as galileo, kepler, and newton laid the foundation for what is now known as classical mechanics. it is a branch of classical physics that deals with particles that are either at rest or are moving with velocities significantly less than the speed of light. it can also be defined as a branch of science which deals with the motion of and forces on objects. the field is yet less widely understood in terms of quantum theory.
