At $300 \mathrm{~K}, 22 \mathrm{~g}$ of $\mathrm{CO}_2$ gas exerts a pressure of 5 atmosphere. What is volume of the gas at same temperature? $\left(\mathrm{R}=0.0821 \mathrm{~L} \mathrm{~atm} \mathrm{~K}^{-1} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\right)$
  1. $5.61 \mathrm{dm}^3$
  2. $8.20 \mathrm{dm}^3$
  3. $2.46 \mathrm{dm}^3$
  4. $3.80 \mathrm{dm}^3$

Solution

$\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{CO}_2}=5 \mathrm{~atm} \\ & \mathrm{~T}=300 \mathrm{~K} \end{aligned}$ Moles of gas $=\frac{22}{44}\left(\right.$ Molar mass of $\mathrm{CO}_2$ is 44$)$ $\begin{aligned} & =0.5 \\ & \mathrm{PV}=\mathrm{nRT} \\ & \mathrm{V}=\frac{\mathrm{nRT}}{\mathrm{P}}=\frac{0.5 \times 0.0821 \times 300}{5} \\ & =2.46 \mathrm{dm}^3 \end{aligned}$
