Answer:

Hydrogen gas has the same number of molecules as 3.0 liter of nitrogen gas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given volume of nitrogen gas at STP = 3 L

Moles of nitrogen gas = n

At STP, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L of volume.


n* 22.4 L =3 L


n=(3 L)/(22.4 L)=0.1339 mol


1 mol = 6.022* 10^(23) atoms/ molecules

Number of nitrogen gas molecules:


0.1339* 6.022* 10^(23)=8.652* 10^(22) molecules

So, from the options, the gas with volume equal to the volume of nitrogen gas and will have moles equal to number of moles of nitrogen with which it will also have same number of molecules of gas.

Volume of fluorine gas = 6.0 l

Volume of hydrogen gas = 3.0 L

Volume of nitrogen gas = 4.5 L

Volume of chlorine gas = 4.5 L

Volume of hydrogen gas = Given volume o nitrogen gas = 3.0 L

Hydrogen gas has the same number of molecules as 3.0 liter of nitrogen gas.

The answer is: 3.0 L of CH4(g).

Vm = 22.4 L/mol; molar volume at STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure).

At STP one mole of gas occupies 22.4 liters of volume.

In this question all substances are gases, amount of substance depends on volume of the gas.

Same volume, same number of molecules.

So 3 liters of hydrogen gas (H₂) has the same number of molecules as 3 liters of methane gas (CH₄).
