C. they expand to fill all the space
It can be either they can have a negative or positive charge more specifically negatively charged molecule would called an anion and a positive one would be cation.
Use the universal gas formula
PV=nRT
where
P=pressure ( 0.980 atm)
V=volume (L)
T=temperature ( 23 ° C = 23+273.15 = 296.15 ° K)
n=number of moles of ideal gas (0.485 mol)
R=universal gas constant = <span>0.08205 L atm / (mol·K)
Substitute values,
Volume, V (in litres)
=nRT/P
=0.485*0.08205*296.15/0.980
= 12.0256 L
= 12.0 L (to three significant figures)
