nmdcat.online July 2, 2026

Under standard conditions of temperature and pressure, 64 g of oxygen gas (O₂) occupies a volume of

A. 11.2 dm³
B. 22.4 dm³
C. 44.8 dm³
D. 5.6 dm³

📝 Explanation

Moles of O₂ = 64 g ÷ 32 g/mol = 2.0 moles. At STP, molar volume is 22.4 dm³. Therefore, volume = 2.0 × 22.4 = 44.8 dm³.

📖 Additional Information

  • 11.2 dm³
  • 22.4 dm³
  • 44.8 dm³
  • 5.6 dm³

Moles of O₂ = 64 g ÷ 32 g/mol = 2.0 moles. At STP, molar volume is 22.4 dm³. Therefore, volume = 2.0 × 22.4 = 44.8 dm³.
