0.216g of an organic compound gave 28.8cm3 of moist nitrogen measured at 288k and 732.7 mm pressure. The percentage of N2 in the substance is approximately (aqueous tension is 12.7mm)
15
Volume of N2 at NTP= 28.8(732.7 − 127)288 × 273760
= 25.86 cc
% of N2 = 2822,400 × 25.860.216 × 100 = 14.96 ≈ 15.
