Textbook Question
Suppose you are given two 2-L flasks and told that one contains
a gas of molar mass 28, the other a gas of molar mass 56,
both at the same temperature and pressure. The mass of gas in
the flask A is 1.0 g and the mass of gas in the flask B is 2.0 g.
Which flask contains the gas of molar mass 28, and which
contains the gas of molar mass 56?

Textbook Question
Suppose you are given two flasks at the same temperature,
one of volume 2 L and the other of volume 3 L. The 2-L flask
contains 4.8 g of gas, and the gas pressure is x kPa. The 3-L
flask contains 0.36 g of gas, and the gas pressure is 0.1x. Do
the two gases have the same molar mass? If not, which contains
the gas of higher molar mass?
