Heather Booth · Answer 1

Option 5. 179L

Explanation:

The reaction is:

2 HCl + Na₂CO₃ → 2NaCl + H₂O + CO₂

The amount of collected CO₂ is 8 moles.

We apply the Ideal Gases Law at STP

STP are 1 atm of pressure and 273K of T°

P. V = n. R. T

1atm. V = 8 mol. 0.082L. atm/mol. K. 273K

V = (8 mol. 0.082L. atm/mol. K. 273K) / 1 atm = 179 L
