Calculate the number of molecules present in 2.24 dm ^3 of carbon dioxide at STP ?
Options
- A2.011 10²²
- B3.011 10²²
- C6.022 10²²
- D0.1 10²³
Correct answer
C. 6.022 10²²
Step-by-step solution
Volume of CO ₂ at STP = 2.24 dm ^3 = 2.24 L Molar volume of an ideal gas at STP = 22.4 L Number of moles of CO ₂ = 2.24 22.4 = 0.1 mol Number of molecules = Number of moles N_A Number of molecules = 0.1 6.022 10²³ = 6.022 10²² Answer: 6.022 10²²
