Volume occupied by 55.5 moles of water gas at STP = 1240 Liters.
Explanation:
1st keep in mind that 'volume' in the context of problems like this apply only to the gas phase form of the substance. Water in solid form (ice) or liquid form (liquid water) do not apply. Volume in this case is referred to as 'molar volume' and is a gas occupying 22.4 liters at STP conditions (0°C, 1Atm).
So, if 1 molar volume of water gas (steam) occupies 22.4 Liters at STP, then 55.5 moles of water gas occupies 22.4 Liters/mole x 55.5 moles = 1243.2 Liters, or 1240 Liters (3 sig. figs.). :-)
Potential energy diagrams represent the energy transfer in chemical reactions in a diagram called a potential energy graph and/or a reaction progress curve. A potential energy diagram shows the adjustment in potential energy of a system as reactants are changed.
