Answer:

0.54 moles of N2

Step-by-step explanation:

First remember to find the volume in moles, 1 mole equals 22.4 liters.

So now use the dimensional analysis to show your work.

12 liters of N2 * 1 mol /22.4 liters of N2

Now calculate this. 12 * 1/22.4 or 12/ 22.4

12/22.4 = 0.535714286.

12 has two significant digits.

With that, The answer rounds to 0.54.

So that the final answer is 0.54 moles.

Hope it helped!
