Well the molar volume at #"STP"# is #22.4*L#, depending on your syllabus....

Explanation:

And so we have a mass with respect to chlorine gas of....

#(8.01*L)/(22.4*L*mol^-1)=0.358*1/(1/(mol))=0.358*mol#

And thus a mass of #0.358*molxx70.9*g*mol^-1=25.4*g#..

Note that chlorine, as are ALL the elemental gases with any chemistry, is BIMOLECULAR, i.e. #X_2#...
