    Using the Equation: PV=nRT

    Where P is the pressure 60 cmHg or 600 mmHg or 600/760 = 0.789 atm

    V is the volume 125 ml or 0.125 L, n is the number of moles, R is a constant 0.082057, and T is temperature 25 °C or 298 K;

    Therefore:

    0.789 * 0.125 = n * 0.082057 * 298

    n = 0.0987/24.45

    = 0.004036 mol

    0.004036 mole has a mass of 0.286 g

    Hence; 1 mole has a mass of 0.286/0.004036

    = 70.8 g / mol

    Therefore the molar mass of the gas is 71 g/mol (2 sfg)
