Answer:
0.56 atm
Explanation:
First of all, we need to find the number of moles of the gas.
We know that
m = 1.00 g is the mass of the gas
is the molar mass of the carbon dioxide
So, the number of moles of the gas is
Now we can find the pressure of the gas by using the ideal gas equation:
where
p is the pressure
is the volume
n = 0.023 mol is the number of moles
is the gas constant
is the temperature of the gas
Solving the equation for p, we find
And since we have
the pressure in atmospheres is
