If 50.75 g of a gas occupies 10.0 l at stp, 129.3 g of the gas will occupy __________ l at stp.

Rom4ik [11]

Use PV = mRT/M and solve for R. R = PVM/RT. Since you have the same gas under two sets of conditions then you can write
P1V1M1/m1T1 = P2V2M2/m2T2 
Since P, M and T are constant, the equation becomes 
V1/m1 = V2/m2 
Now plug in your values and solve for V2
