SOLUTION : As the gas leaks out, the volume and the temperature of the remaining gas do not change. The number of moles of the gas in the vessel is given by $n=\frac{p V}{R T}$. The number of moles in the vessel before the leakage is
$n_{1}=\frac{p_{1} V}{R T}$
and that after the leakage is
$n_{2}=\frac{p_{2} V}{R T}.$
Thus, the amount leaked is
$n_{1}-n_{2}=\frac{\left(p_{1}-p_{2}\right) V}{R T}$
$=\frac{(200-125) \times 10^{3} N m ^{-2} \times 8.0 \times 10^{-3} m ^{3}}{\left(8.3 J K ^{-1} mol ^{-1}\right) \times(300 K )}$
$=0.24 mol ^{-1} .$
