Question

Calculate the atomicity of chlorine if 35.5g of it occupies 11200cm^3 at stpplease answer fast​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L at STP, so Molar Mass that is, mass of 1 mole of chlorine gas equals to 35.5 g.

According to the fact,

volume of gas at STP = Number of moles * 22.4

or, 22.4 L = n * 22.4

or, n = 1

Thus from this it is coming out to be 1.

(Note: As per the data given, the atomicity of chlorine is coming out to be 1. However, chlorine is actually a diatomic molecule.)
