    mass of air = 324 kg

    Explanation:

    mass of air = moles of air * molecular weight (N₂)

    moles of air = PV / RT

    Given that

    P = 1 atm

    Volume of room = 282 m³

    R = 0.082L atm mol⁻¹k⁻¹

    = (1 * 282 * 10³) / (0.0821 * 297)

    = 11.565 * 10³mol

    molecular weight of N₂ = 28g/mol

    mass of air = (11.565 * 10³) mol * 0.028kg/mol

    = 323.8kg

    to three significant figures = 324 kg
