Question

At STP how many molecules of nitrogen gas are in 224 L?

Answer 1

Answer:

6.022×10²² molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of nitrogen = 224 L

Pressure = standard = 1 atm

Temperature = standard = 273 K

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

PV = nRT

1 atm × 224 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 273 K

224 atm.L = n ×22.41 atm.L/mol

n = 224 atm.L/22.41 atm.L/mol

n = 10 mol

1 mole contain 6.022×10²³ molecules

10 mol×6.022×10²³ molecules/ 1 mol

60.22×10²³ molecules

6.022×10²² molecules
