Question

What is the volume of 2 mol of chlorine gas at STP? 2.0 L 11.2 L 22.4 L 44.8 L

Answer 1

Answer:

44.8 L

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas law equation:

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (L)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)

T = temperature (K)

At Standard temperature and pressure (STP);

P = 1 atm

T = 273K

Hence, when n = 2moles, the volume of the gas is:

Using PV = nRT

1 × V = 2 × 0.0821 × 273

V = 44.83

V = 44.8 L
