Physics

A Geiger–Muller tube is a type of gas‑filled radiationdetector. It can detect particles like X‑rays, alpha particles, andbeta rays (electrons). This is useful in quantizing the activity ofa radioactive source or determining if an area containingradioactive material is safe to enter. Assuming that you have 1molof gas, if a Geiger counter is filled with 9674 Pa of argon gas atroom temperature (T=23.3 °C), what is the density,
ρ, of the gas in this Geiger tube?
