The molecular formula C 6 H 8 O 6 (molar mass: 176.124 g/mol) may be: Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) Erythorbic acid; Glucuronolactone; Propane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid;
The ideal gas equation can be rearranged to give an expression for the molar volume of an ideal gas: = = Hence, for a given temperature and pressure, the molar volume is the same for all ideal gases and is based on the gas constant: R = 8.314 462 618 153 24 m 3 ⋅Pa⋅K −1 ⋅mol −1, or about 8.205 736 608 095 96 × 10 −5 m 3 ⋅atm⋅K ...
The gas constant occurs in the ideal gas law: = = where P is the absolute pressure, V is the volume of gas, n is the amount of substance, m is the mass, and T is the thermodynamic temperature. R specific is the mass-specific gas constant. The gas constant is expressed in the same unit as molar heat.
How much gas is present could be specified by giving the mass instead of the chemical amount of gas. Therefore, an alternative form of the ideal gas law may be useful. The chemical amount, n (in moles), is equal to total mass of the gas (m) (in kilograms) divided by the molar mass, M (in kilograms per mole): =.
[2] [3] In reference to the compound's antiscorbutic properties, Haworth and Szent-Györgyi proposed to rename it "a-scorbic acid" for the compound, and later specifically l-ascorbic acid. [4] Because of their work, in 1937 two Nobel Prizes : in Chemistry and in Physiology or Medicine were awarded to Haworth and Szent-Györgyi, respectively.
Molecular weight (M.W.) (for molecular compounds) and formula weight (F.W.) (for non-molecular compounds), are older terms for what is now more correctly called the relative molar mass (M r). [8] This is a dimensionless quantity (i.e., a pure number, without units) equal to the molar mass divided by the molar mass constant .
V m = 10.7316 × 519.67 / 14.730 = 378.61 ft 3 /lbmol at 60 °F and 14.73 psi; Technical literature can be confusing because many authors fail to explain whether they are using the ideal gas constant R, or the specific gas constant R s. The relationship between the two constants is R s = R / m, where m is the molecular mass of the gas.
The gaseous state of water is lighter than air (density 0.804 g/L at STP, average molecular mass 18.015 g/mol) due to water's low molar mass when compared with typical atmospheric gases such as nitrogen gas (N 2). It is non-flammable and much cheaper than helium. The concept of using steam for lifting is therefore already 200 years old.
