To determine the density of a gas, we can use the ideal gas law, which relates the pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of a gas. The ideal gas law equation is as follows:

PV = nRT

Where: P is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the gas, n is the number of moles of the gas, R is the ideal gas constant (0.0821 L·atm/(mol·K)), T is the temperature of the gas in Kelvin.

To calculate the density of the gas, we need to rearrange the ideal gas law equation to isolate the density (ρ), which is defined as the mass per unit volume:

ρ = (nM) / V

Where: ρ is the density of the gas, M is the molar mass of the gas.

Given: Pressure (P) = 1.34 atm Temperature (T) = 303 K

We need additional information to determine the molar mass of the gas in order to calculate its density. Can you provide the molar mass or the identity of the gas?
