The volume of the gas is 73.1 liters.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to use the ideal gas law:

#PV=nRT#

#P# is pressure in atmospheres, #V# is volume in liters, #n# is moles, #R# is the universal gas constant, and #T# is the temperature in Kelvins.

First, convert #24.0^oC# to Kelvins by adding 273:

#24.0^oC + 273 = 297K#

Plug the known values into the equation and solve for the volume.

#(1)(V)=(3.00)(0.08206)(297)#

#V=(3.00)(0.08206)(297)=73.1# liters
