Question

Calculate volume of 16g of sulfur Dioxide,SO2 at Stp​

Answer 1

5.6L

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of sulfur dioxide = 16g

Unknown:

Volume of at STP = ?

Solution:

The volume of gas at STP;

Number of moles =
`(volume of gas)/(22.4)`

The volume of the gas = number of moles x 22.4

Number of moles =
`(mass)/(molar mass)`

Molar mass of SO₂ = 32 + 2(16) = 64g/mol

Number of moles =
`(16)/(64)` = 0.25mole

Volume of the gas = number of moles x 22.4

Volume of the gas = 0.25 x 22.4 = 5.6L
