28g of N¬2 at STP will occupy a volume of:

Correct answer: A. 22.41 dm3

  • A. 22.41 dm3
  • B. 44.82 dm3
  • C. 64.82 dm3
  • D. 2.241 dm3

Explanation

To find the volume of a gas, we use the formula: Moles = Volume of gas / 22. 41First, we find the moles of Nitrogen which are (mass / mr) so 28/28 = 1The volume of gas = Moles x 22.41Volume = 1 x 22.41 = 22.41 dm3

About Standard Temperature and Pressure

Standard temperature and pressure provide reference conditions for gas calculations: 0°C or 273 K and, in the usual school convention, 1 atm pressure. Questions use these conditions to relate pressure, volume, temperature and amount of gas, including the molar volume of an ideal gas, about 22.4 dm³.
