Answer to Question #131798 in General Chemistry for Michelle

Question

A gas has a density of 5.89 g/L at a pressure of 1 atm and at a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius. What is the volume in liters of 5.89 kg of this gas under head conditions? Give your answer in scientific notation without units. You may disregard significant figures.

Answer 1

5.89 kg = 5.89*10³ g

If conditions remain constant, the volume will be:

5.89*10³g * 1L / 5.89g = 1*10³ L

Answer: 1*10³
