Gas Stoichiometry

Question 12 • TX-Chemistry B-CR

The gases listed are at standard temperature and pressure:· 1 mol of CO2 gas· 1 mol of N2 gas· 2 mol of O2 gasWhich statement is correct?

Answer
T
The volume of 1 mol of CO2 is greater than that of 2 mol of O2 .
T
The volume of 1 mol of CO2 is greater than that of 1 mol of N2 .
T
The volumes of 2 mol of O2 and 1 mol of N2 gases are the same.
T
The volumes of 1 mol of CO2 and 1 mol of N2 gases are the same.

Explanation

At the same temperature and pressure, equal numbers of moles of ideal gases occupy equal volumes (Avogadro’s law). Therefore, 1 mol of CO2 and 1 mol of N2 have the same volume. Two moles of O2 occupy twice the volume of either one-mole sample.
