Answer:
We are given:
Volume (V) = 0.25 L
Pressure (P) = 0.93 atm
Temperature (T) = 15.4°C OR 288.4 K
Solving for the number of moles of CO₂:
From the ideal gas equation:
PV = nRT
replacing the variables
0.93 * 0.25 = n (0.082)(288.4)
n = 0.00983 moles
Number of molecules:
Number of moles= 0.00983
number of molecules in 1 mole = 6.022 * 10²³
Number of molecules in 0.00983 moles = 0.00983 * 6.022 * 10²³
Number of molecules = 5.91 * 10²¹
