Answer:

0.126 Liters

Step-by-step explanation:

V = mRT / mmP

First, convert the 2.25g of Nitrogen gas into moles. (m in the equation above)

2.25g x 1 mole / 28.0g = 0.08036 moles = m

28.0g = mm

Next, convert the 273 Celsius into Kelvin. (T in the equation above)

273 Celsius + 273.15 = 546.15K = T

R = 0.08206L*atm/mol*K

(Quick Note: The R changes depending on the Pressure Unit so do not use this number every time.)

Now, plug everything into the equation.

V = (0.08036)(0.08206)(546.15)/(28.0)(1.02)

V = 0.126 L
