Answer:

The moles of gas are contained in the sample is 2 (two) moles

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the formula PV=nRT

R= Regnault constant

n=number of moles

We convert the temperature into Kelvin according to: 0°C= 273K. In this case, the temperature is 273L.

PV=nRT 2 atm x 22,4l = n 0,082 l atm/K mol x 273K

n = 2 atm x 22,4l/0,082 l atm/K mol x 273K= 2 moles
