A 22.4­L sample of which of the following substances, at STP, would contain 6.02 x 10 representative particles? silver carbon nitrogen cesium iodide @sweetburger

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

Hint: 1 mole of every gas occupies 22.4L

OpenStudy (18jonea):

I have no idea still

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

This is just one of those things: 1 mole of every gas ( doesn't matter what gas it is) occupies 22.4L so 1 mole has 6.02x10^23 particles in it., at standard temperature and pressure, STP STP means 1 atm 298K

OpenStudy (18jonea):

i know its not d

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

why?

OpenStudy (18jonea):

I just know but im not sure about abc

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

it must be a gas at room temperature

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

so which one of those compounds would be a gas at room-temperature?

OpenStudy (18jonea):

not silver

OpenStudy (18jonea):

or carbon

OpenStudy (18jonea):

so its nitrogen? @greatlife44

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

so try to explain yourself here you said that it's not silver, why wouldn't it be silver or carbon?

OpenStudy (18jonea):

they are bith solids at room temp

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

good

OpenStudy (18jonea):

so nitrogen is right?

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

\[N_{2} \] = gas at room temperature

OpenStudy (greatlife44):

@18jonea this is a property of all compounds that are gases under the conditions of STP which are 298K and 1 atm 1 mole of every gas will occupy 22.4L

OpenStudy (18jonea):

ok thanks for the help
