Question
The molar mass of a volatile liquid (bp < 90˚C) is to be determined by measuring the density of its vapor in an Erlenmeyer flask capped with Al foil with a pinhole to allow the vapor to escape. A sample of the liquid is added to the pre-weighed flask that is heated in a water bath until the liquid has evaporated, after which the flask is dried and reweighed. Which piece of information is not required to determine the molar mass of the liquid?
A.
barometric pressure
B.✓ Correct
mass of liquid sample
C.
temperature of water
D.
volume of the flask
