Answer:
0.500 moles of CO2 has a volume of 11.2 L at STP (option B)
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Volume of a gas at STP = 11.2 L
STP: Pressure = 1 atm and temperature = 273 K
Step 2: Calculate volume
p*V= n*R*T
V = (n*R*T)/p
⇒with V = the volume of the gas = TO BE DETERMINED
⇒with n = the number of moles of the gas
⇒with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K
⇒with T = the temperature = 273 K
⇒with p = the pressure of the gas = 1 atm
A
) 0.250 mole of NH3
V = (0.250 * 0.08206 * 273) / 1
V = 5.6 L
B
) 0.500 mole of CO2
V = (0.500 * 0.08206 * 273) / 1
V = 11.2 L
C
) 0.750 mole of NH3
V = (0.750 * 0.08206 * 273) / 1
V = 16.8 L
D) 1.00 mole of CO2
V = (1.00 * 0.08206* 273) / 1
V = 22.4 L
0.500 moles of CO2 has a volume of 11.2 L at STP (option B)
