Detailed Solution

According to ideal gas equation,

PV=nRT

From the given data of a mixture,

750760×1.5=n×0.0821×300

Note:760mm ofHg=1atm

nmix=750×1.5760×24.63

nmixure=0.06moles

Volume of He gas at 15 K = Volume of mixture of gaess at 300 K

At 15K, He is present in the form of gas.

Total pressure of mixture is equal to pressure of He gas.

PHe=8mmofHg=8760atm

Apply PV=nRT   for He gas at 15 K.

8760×1.5=nHe×0.0821×15

nHe=8760×0.0821×1.515=0.0128mol

Mass of He=nHe×M.Wof He 

mHe= 0.0128×4 =0.0512g

No. of moles of other gas =nmixnHe=0.060.0128=0.0472  moles M.W of other gas=50.0512=4.948g

No. of moles =massGram.MW

0.0472=4.948M.W

M.W of other gas=103.8g
