Use this formula: D= (Pd/Rd*T) + (Pv/Rv*T)
where: D = density, kg/m3
Pd = pressure of dry air, Pascals
Pv= pressure of vapor, Pascals
Rd = gas constant for dry air, J/(kg*degK) = 287.05
Rv = gas constant for vapor, J/(kg*degK) = 461.495
T = temperature, degK = deg C + 273.15
Use the formula and calculate yourself.

hey i just have a doubt
check this method
 
given density
 
put volume =22.4ltr=22.4*10^-3 m^3
 
calculet molar mass from it by multiplying density and volume
 
vapour density=molar mass/2( by formulae)
 
solve do you want me to post the answer????
 
am i correct????
any contradictions???

u havent specified the units of density so use volume as 22.4*10^3 gm/cm^3 accordingly so that you get the answer in gms which you can divide by 2 to get vapour density i am sure this is the right method check it out and reply!!!! hello???

yeah you are right thats what i too get from my method
i think the author refers to N2 molecule!!!

U CAN ALSO USE DIS
V NO PV=nRT WHERE n=GIVEN WEIGHT/GMW HENCE
P X M=D X RT
SINCE GIVEN IS GASEOUS LET IT OCCUR AT STP CONDITIONS SUBSTITUTING D VALUES V GET 'M' FRM IT
V NO M=2 X VAPOUR DENSITY V OBTAIN VALUE OF 'V.D'
PLZ DO RATE ME IF IM RITE
