An ideal gas at a temperature of 22 C is trapped in a metal cylinder of volume 0.2 m^3 at a pressure of 1.6x10^6 Pa. The gas has a molar mass of 4.3 x 10^(-2) kg mol^(-1). Calculate the density of the gas in the cylinder.

It's useful to start from the density formula and see what we need to find. The density is given by (rho) = m/V We know the volume V, so we only need to find the mass m. We are given the value for molar mass...

Which Real values of x satisfy 3/ln(x) = ln(x) + 2?

The problem with this equation lies with the denominator on the left hand side. If we recall our graph of ln(x) however, we know that ln(x) is always positive and not equal to 0. Now we can safely multiply i...
