Answer:

Field experiments can often have the potential to give scientists opportunities that are not possible in a lab setting.

Explanation:

Having people "act natural" in a lab setting is impossible to truly achieve, as we all know what happens to our mental state and behavior when we are being actively observed. This is also especially helpful when conducting wildlife research, as there are a myriad of different things influencing animal and plant behavior that would be nigh impossible to recreate perfectly in a controlled lab setting.

Field research can have its disadvantages as well, as it is very hard to only have one thing change (make an independent variable) in a wild environment with ever-changing weather, social effects, etc. Also, you, as the researcher, as causing an impact on the very location that you are observing, which can alter your results in unpredictable ways.

The thing to remember is that each type of study has its advantages and disadvantages; if they didn't, then we'd all do the same type of research! You have to weigh your research options and figure out which one works best for your situation :)

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

We have that there were produced 0.120 moles of $CO_{2}$

$n=0.120mol$

We are asked to calculate the number of moles of the given gas, also, we are given the volume, the temperature and the pressure of the gas, we can calculate the approximate volume using The Ideal Gas Law.

The Ideal Gas Law is based on Boyle's Law, Gay-Lussac's Law, Charles's Law, and Avogadro's Law, and it's described by the following equation:

$PV=nRT$

Where,

P is the pressure of the gas.

V is the volume of the gas.

n is the number of moles of the gas.

T is the absolute temperature of the gas (Kelvin).

R is the ideal gas constant (to work with pressure in mmHg), which is equal to:

$R=62.363\frac{mmHg.L}{mol.K}$

We must remember that the The Ideal Gas Law equation works with absolute temperatures (K), so, if we are given relative temperatures such as Celsius degrees or Fahrenheit degrees, we need to convert it to Kelvin before we proceed to work with the equation.

We can convert from Celsius degrees to Kelvin using the following formula:

$Temperature(K)=Temperature(C\°) + 273K$
