What volume does 0.25 mol of H₂ gas occupy at STP? (molar volume 22.4 dm³/mol)

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. 5.6 dm³

  1. Step 1: At STP one mole of any ideal gas occupies 22.4 dm³. Step 2. V = 0.25 × 22.4 = 5.6 dm³. Answer: 5.6 dm³. Why not the others: 0.5 dm³ is what you get if you use the molar mass instead of 22.4. 89.6 dm³ is what you get if you divide 22.4 by the moles. 6 dm³ is what you get if you use the room-temperature molar volume.
