Question

What is the mass of 5.3 litres of carbon dioxide gas at STP

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

given volume =5.3 litres

as we know that 1 litre =1 dm3

therefore 5.3 litres =5.3 dm3

now moles =given mass /molar mass

so mass =moles*molar mass

in order to find mass of carbon we need to find moles

therefore moles=given volume/standard volume standard volume at STP is 22.4 dm3

moles= 5.3/22.4

moles=0.236=0.24

now mass of carbon dioxide =moles*molar mass

mass = 0.24*44

mass=10.56kg
