The pressure exerted by 0.57 moles of CO2 at a temperature of 25°C and a volume of 500 ml is 28 atm.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to ideal gas law,

PV = nRT

where P represents the pressure of a gas,

V represents the volume of a gas,

n represents the number of moles,

R represents the gas constant = 0.0821 L atm / mol K.

T represents the temperature of a gas.

Given V = 500 ml = 0.5 l, T = 25°C = 298 K, n = 0.57 mol

PV = nRT

P = nRT / V

= (0.57
* 0.0821
* 298) / 0.5

P = 28 atm.

The pressure of a gas is 28 atm.
