If anyone could help me figure these out I would greatly appreciate it. I have a test tomorrow and these are the only 2 I can't figure out from my review sheet.

An unknown gas occupies a volume of 1.250 L at 26oC and 705 torr. If the sample has a mass of 2.37 g, what is the molar mass of the gas?
(R = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)

AND

How many moles of helium gas occupy a volume of 58.7 L at -13.0oC and 1.17 atmospheres of pressure?

Ust the ideal gas equation

PV=nRT

P is 705 torr, but you need to convert to atm, so divide by 760
V is 1.250 L, use as is
R = 0.0821
T is 26 0C. Convert to K by adding 273

Now solve for n = moles

2.37 divided by the moles gives you the molar mass

Same for the 2nd problem. Use the same equation and convert your data as necessary to Kelvin

in this exercise you have always to use the eq PV=nRT than u remember that n=g/MW of the gas an u can solve anything
