A sample of 0.300 moles of nitrogen occupies 0.600 L. Under the same conditions, what amount of moles occupies 1.200 L?
1 Answer
Explanation:
This is an example of Avogadro's law, which states that the volume and amount (moles) of a gas are directly proportional when pressure and temperature are held constant. This means that if the amount of gas is increased, the volume will also increase, and vice versa. The equation is:
