1 mole of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4L, therefore there are 3.022×10^24 molecules of oxygen gas in 113.97 L

Answer:
30.64* 10^(23)molecules

Step-by-step explanation: According to Avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 Liters at standard temperature and pressure and contains avogadro's number
(6.023* 10^(23)) of particles.

22.4 L of oxygen gas
(O_2) contains =
6.023* 10^(23) molecules of oxygen

113.97 L of oxygen gas
(O_2) contains =
(6.023* 10^(23))/(22.4L)* 113.97L=30.64* 10^(23)molecules of oxygen
