a 500. mL flask contains a mixture of 2.56 grams of argon, 1.22 grams of nitrogen and 8.49 grams of chlorine. if the temperature of the gases is 125 degrees C, what is the total pressure in the flask?
 
2.56g Ar(1 mole/39.95g)=.064 mole

1.22g(1 mole N/14g)=.087 mole

8.49g (1 mole Cl/35g)=.24g mole

.064 +.087 +.24=.391mole

PV=nRT

P*(.5L)=.391mole(*0.0821L*atm/mol*K)(125+273)K

P=25.55 atm
 
moles Ar = 2.56 g / 39.948 g/mol=0.0641
moles N2 = 1.22 g / 28.0134 g/mol=0.0436
moles Cl2 = 8.49 g/70.906 g/mol=0.120

total moles =0.278

p = 0.278 x 0.0821 x 398 K / 0.500 L =18.2 atm
