Question

A piece of dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) with a mass of 28.8 g sublimes (converts from solid to gas) into a large balloon. Assuming that all of the carbon dioxide ends up in the balloon, what is the volume of the balloon at a temperature of 22 C and a pressure of 742 mmHg?

Step 1

We can do this by dividing the mass of the carbon dioxide by its molar mass. The molar mass of carbon dioxide (CO2) is 44.01 g/mol. So, the number of moles (n) is given by: \[ n = \frac{28.8 \, \text{g}}{44.01 \, \text{g/mol}} \] Show more…
