Answer: 44.8 L

Step-by-step explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number
6.023* 10^(23) of particles.

Standard condition of temperature (STP) is 273 K and atmospheric pressure is 1 atm respectively.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:


\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given molecules}}{\text {Avogadro's number}}=(120* 10^(22))/(6.023* 10^(23))=2moles

1 mole of
NO occupies volume = 22.4L at STP

Thus 2 moles of magnesium react with=
(22.4)/(1)* 2=44.8L

Thus the volume of
120* 10^(22) molecules of nitric oxide gas is 44.8 L.
