Answer

(a) $65.2mol$

Work Step by Step

We know that $n=\frac{PV}{RT}$......eq(1) $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{4.75ft}{2}=0.7239m$ and $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$ $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi(0.7239m)^3=1.59m^3$ We plug in the known values in eq(1) to obtain: $n=\frac{(1.01\times 10^5Pa)(1.59m^3)}{(8.31 J/mol.K)(273K)}$ $n=65.2mol$
