Randall D. Knight — A Macroscopic Description of Matter: Problem 48
To determine the mass of neon contained in a rigid, 2.0 L cylinder, you vary the cylinder’s temperature while recording the reading of a pressure gauge. Your data are as follows: | Temperature (°C) | Pressure (atm) | | :---: | :---: | | 100 | 6.52 | | 150 | 7.80 | | 200 | 8.83 | | 250 | 9.59 | Use the best-fit line of an appropriate graph to determine the mass of the neon.
