A student uses the apparatus shown to calculate the relative molecular mass, Mr, of a gaseous alkane. The experiment took place at 298K and 101kPa. [Apparatus diagram] The alkane is flammable. The student opens the tap and allows a small amount of the alkane gas into the measuring cylinder, displacing water. The gas in the measuring cylinder is allowed to reach room temperature and the volume recorded. This process is repeated and the measurements of mass of gas cylinder and total volume of gas collected are recorded in the table.
