5. Avocados are to be ripened at 1.04 bar in a storage room containing air, ethylene with a partial pressure of 3.5 kPa, and carbon dioxide at a partial pressure of 2 kPa. The balance will be air. If 0.08 kg of ethylene is charged to the storage container, determine the total mass of gas used. If the temperature of the storage room is maintained at 15 °C what is the density of the gas mixture?
