Answer:
33.6 L
Explanation:
We can solve the problem by using the equation of state for ideal gases, which states that:
[tex]pV=nRT[/tex]
where
p is the pressure of the gas
V is its volume
n is the number of moles
R is the gas constant
T is the absolute temperature of the gas
For the ideal gas in this problem we have:
n = 4.5 mol (number of moles)
p = 3 atm (pressure)
[tex]T=0^{\circ}C+273=273 K[/tex] is the temperature
[tex]R=0.082 Latm/mol K[/tex] is the gas constant
Solving for V, we find the volume of the gas:
[tex]V=\frac{nRT}{p}=\frac{(4.5)(0.082)(273)}{3}=33.6 L[/tex]
