0.091 moles are contained in 2.0 L of N2 at standard temperature and pressure.
Explanation:
Data given:
volume of the nitrogen gas = 2 litres
Standard temperature = 273 K
Standard pressure = 1 atm
number of moles =?
R (gas constant) = 0.08201 L atm/mole K
Assuming nitrogen to be an ideal gas at STP, we will use Ideal Gas law
PV = nRT
rearranging the equation to calculate number of moles:
PV = nRT
n =
putting the values in the equation:
n =
n = 0.091 moles
0.091 moles of nitrogen gas is contained in a container at STP.
Explanation:
The compound is also known as carbon dioxide. It is a gas. It forms when one carbon atom combines with two oxygen atoms.
This can be illustrated as follows.
Consumption of carbon dioxide gas in very low concentrations is not harmful but consumption of its large concentration is very harmful as it can affect the respiratory system.
