$P ≅ 12 \cdot a t m$ $P~=12*atm$

Explanation:

Using the Ideal Gas Equation, $P = \frac{n R T}{V}$ $P=(nRT)/V$ $=$ $=$ $\frac{7.6 \cdot m o l \times 0.0821 \cdot L \cdot a t m \cdot K^{- 1} \cdot m o l^{- 1} \times 314 \cdot K}{16.0 \cdot L}$ $(7.6*molxx0.0821*L*atm*K^-1*mol^-1xx314*K)/(16.0*L)$ $=$ $=$ $? ? a t m$ $??atm$

With these problems, we are always faced with choosing the appropriated gas constant, $R$ $R$ . Typically, chemists use $litres$ $"litres"$ and $atmospheres$ $"atmospheres"$ . Absolute temperature in $degrees Kelvin$ $"degrees Kelvin"$ is common to these problems.
