Find your answer in the explanation below.
Explanation:
PV = nRT is called the ideal gas equation and its a combination of 3 laws; Charles' law, Boyle's law and Avogadro's law.
According to Boyle's law, at constant temperature, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure. i.e V = 1/P
From, Charles' law, we have that volume is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas at constant pressure. i.e V = T
Avogadro's law finally states that equal volume of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules. i.e V = n
Combining the 3 Laws together i.e equating volume in all 3 laws, we have
V = nT/P,
V = constant nT/P
(constant = general gas constant = R)
V = RnT/P
by bringing P to the LHS, we have,
PV = nRT.

Answer:
- <u><em>1.12 liters</em></u>
Explanation:
<u>Calculating number of moles</u>
- Molar mass of O₂ = 32 g
- n = Given weight / Molar mass
- n = 1.6/32
- n = 0.05 moles
<u>At STP</u>
- One mole of O₂ occupies 22.4 L
- Therefore, 0.05 moles will occupy :
- 22.4 L x 0.05 = <u><em>1.12 L</em></u>
