Question

Convert 0.7712 moles of oxygen to liters with sig figs. HELP?!

just really the sig figs part tho

Answer 1

You need to specify a temperature and a pressure....

Explanation:

If we assume a pressure of `1*atm`, AND a temperature of `298*K` then we can the Ideal Gas Equation, a state function, to estimate the volume occupied....

`V=(nRT)/P=(0.7712*molxx0.0821*(L*atm)/(K*mol)xx298*K)/(1*atm)`

`~=19*L`

Alternatively, we could have used the molar volume occupied by an Ideal Gas under these standard conditions....`24.5*L*mol^-1`...you're on your own with the significant figures....
