Abstract: By manipulating the ideal gas law (PV=nRT)‚ we will be determining the molar mass of an unknown volatile liquid. Heating a flask filled with an unknown‚ easily evaporated liquid will allow for measurements that can be taken to work out the ideal gas equation. This lab will require knowledge of basic equations used in chemistry. Using these equations‚ such as density and number of moles(n)‚ we can substitute different values into the ideal gas law to manipulate it. II. Materials:
