If you have 5 moles of carbon dioxide at 30degrees C and under 600mmHg of pressure, what will the volume be

157.64 L

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 30 °C to Kelvin temperature. This can be obtained as follow:

T(K) = T(°C) + 273

T(°C) = 30 °C

T(K) = 30 °C + 273

T (K) = 303 K

Next, we shall convert 600 mmHg to atm. This can be obtained as follow:

760 mmHg = 1 atm

Therefore,

600 mmHg = 600 mmHg × 1 atm / 760 mmHg

600 mmHg = 0.789 atm

Finally, we shall determine the volume of the gas. This can be obtained as follow:

Number of mole (n) = 5 moles

Temperature (T) = 303 K

Pressure (P) = 0.789 atm

Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 atm.L/Kmol

Volume (V) =?

PV = nRT

0.789 × V = 5 × 0.0821 × 303

0.789 × V = 124.3815

Divide both side by 0.789

V = 124.3815 / 0.789

V = 157.64 L

Therefore, the volume of the gas is 157.64 L
