What is the volume of 60 g of SO₂ at standard temperature and pressure?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a 21 liters
  2. b 22 liters
  3. c 23 liters
  4. d 25 liters
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: a 21 liters

SO₂ = 64; n = 60/64 = 0.9375; V = 0.9375 × 22.4 = 21 liters.

Why the other options are wrong

  • b 22 liters: 22 liters is close to a full mole; 60 g of SO₂ is less than a mole, 21 liters.
  • c 23 liters: 23 liters is more than a mole; 60 g of SO₂ = 21 liters.
  • d 25 liters: 25 liters is more than a mole; with SO₂ = 64 the answer is 21 liters.
