Answer:

16.5 dm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Data Given:

no. moles of O₂ = 0.735 moles

volume of O₂ = ?

Solution:

Now

we have to find volume of O₂ gas

Formula used for this purpose

No. of moles = Volume / molar volume

where

molar volume at STP for Oxygen (O₂) = 22.4 dm³/mol

No. of moles O₂ = Volume of O₂ / 22.4 dm³/mol . . . . . .(1)

Put values in equation 1

0.735 = Volume of O₂ / 22.4 dm³/ mol

rearrange above equation

Volume of O₂ = 0.735 x 22.4 dm³/ mol

Volume of O₂ = 16.5 dm³

So,

the volume of O₂ at STP is 16.5 dm³
