Answer: Volume of 28.0 g of propane is 15.0 Liters

Step-by-step explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:


PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 1.2 atm

V = Volume of gas = ?

n = number of moles=
\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=(28.0g)/(44.1g/mol)=0.635mol

R = gas constant =
0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =
15^0C=(15+273)K=288K


V=(nRT)/(P)


V=(0.635* 0.0821L atm/K mol* 288K)/(1atm)=15.0L

Thus volume of 28.0 g of propane is 15.0 Liters
