    Mass of the gas m = 1.66

    The calculated temperature T = 273 + 20 = 293

    We have to calculate molar mass to determine the gas

    Molar Mass = mRT / PV

    M = (1.66 x 8.314 x 293) / (101.3 x 1000 x 0.001)

    M = 4043.76 / 101.3 = 39.92 g/mol

    So this gas has to be Argon Ar based on the molar mass.

    Answer is: gas is argon (Ar).

    Missing part of question find on internet:

    part a: p (gas) = 1 atm, T (gas) = 20°C = 293,15 K.

    part b: V (gas) = 1 L.

    Ideal gas law: p·V = n·R·T or p·V = m/M·R·T.

    R (universal gas constant) = 0,08206 L·atm / mol·K.

    M = m·R·T:p·V

    M = 1,66 g·0,08206 L·atm / mol·K ·293,15K: (1 atm·1 L)

    M = 39,9 g/mol (argon).
