Answer:

We can use the Ideal Gas Law to solve for the volume of the carbon dioxide gas:

PV = nRT

where:

P = pressure = 1.4 atm

V = volume = ?

n = moles = 0.6 mol

R = gas constant = 0.08206 L·atm/(mol·K)

T = temperature = 37 + 273 = 310 K

We rearrange the equation to solve for V:

V = (nRT) / P

Substituting the given values, we get:

V = (0.6 mol x 0.08206 L·atm/(mol·K) x 310 K) / 1.4 atm

V = 10.5 L

Therefore, there would be 10.5 liters in a 0.6 mol sample of carbon dioxide at 37 °C and 1.4 atm.
