Solution

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 the ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

∴ n = `"PV"/"RT"`

∴ n = `(4.7xx2.32)/(0.0821xx305.15)`

∴ n = 0.435 moles

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