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
