Well, you know that #1*mol# of #"Ideal gas"# occupies #22.14*L# at #"STP.........."#

Explanation:

Of course, you have #(3.60*g)/(2.02*g*mol^-1)~=2*mol# of #"dihydrogen gas"#. This molar quantity would occupy #44.2*L# under the given conditions, in that dihydrogen APPROXIMATES the behaviour of an ideal gas. Can you provide a better estimate?
