a) calculate the mass of 112L co2 kept at STP (molecular mass 44)
b) how many molecules of co2 present in it?
Answers
Given :
Volume of CO₂ at STP = 112L
Molar mass = 44 g/mol
To Find :
Mass of CO₂ and number of molecules present in the sample
Solution :
❖ We know that volume of 1 mole of compound at STP = 22.4 L
Mass of 1 mole of CO₂ = 44 g
Therefore we can say that,
Mass of 22.4 L of CO₂ = 44 g
Mass of 112 L of CO₂ is given by
➙ m = 44 × 112/22.4
➙ m = 44 × 5
- Moles of CO₂ = 5
➙ m = 220 g
Number of molecules :
➙ N = n × (6.022 × 10²³)
where n denotes moles of CO₂
➙ N = 5 × 6.022 × 10²³
➙ N = 30.11 × 10²³
➙ N = 3.011 × 10²⁴ molecules
