Volume gas occupies

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
A mass of 0.582 kg of molecular oxygen is contained in a cylinder at a pressure of 1.0 × 10^5 Pa and a temperature of 1°C. What volume does the gas occupy?


2. Relevant equations

PV = nRT

3. The attempt at a solution

15.9994 * 2 = 31.9988 amu
532g / 31.9988 amu = 16.62604 mol

K=1 + 273 = 274

(16.62604 x 8.3145 x 274)/100,000
= .3788m^3

This is wrong according to my book...Any ideas why?

The problem statement lists 0.582kg, and you use 532g in your calculation.

According to google.com: 0.582 kilograms = 582 grams?

berkeman

Yeah, so why'd you use 532 in your calculation? A typo?
