Given : 

V = 2.32 L, 

P = 4.7 atm, 

T = 32°C = 32 + 273.15 K 

= 305.15 K 

R = 0.0821 L atm K-1 mol-1

To find : 

n = number of moles of gas 

Formula : 

PV = nRT 

Calculation : 

According to ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT 

∴ n = \(\frac{PV}{RT}\) 

\(\frac{4.7\times 2.32}{0.0821 \times 305.15}\) 

= 0. 435 moles

∴ Number of moles of N2 gas in the given volume is 0.435 moles.
