Darion Maxwell · Answer 1

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of helium = 500 L

STP:

⇒ 25°C = 298 Kelvin

⇒ 1.00 atm

⇒ 22.4 L

This means 1 mole of Helium gas at STP has a volume of of 22.4 L

Since 22.4 L of Helium gas = 1 mol

Then 500 L of helium gas = (500L / 22.4L) * 1 mol = 22.3 mol
