    2.30 liters.

    Explanation:

    The balanced equation of the reaction is:

    Na₂O₂ + CO₂ → Na₂CO₃ + 1/2O₂,

    It is clear that 1.0 mole of Na₂O₂ reacts with 1.0 mole of CO₂ to produce 1.0 mole of Na₂CO₃ and 0.5 mole of O₂. The no. of moles of CO₂ in (4.60 L) reacted can be calculated from the relation: PV = nRT.

    P is the pressure of the gas (P = 1.0 atm at STP),

    V is the volume of the gas (V = 4.60 L),

    R is the general gas constant (R = 0.082 L. atm/mol. K),

    T is the temperature of the gas (T = 273.0 K at STP).

    ∴ n = PV/RT = (1.0 atm) (4.6 L) / (0.082 L. atm/mol. K) (273.0 K) = 0.205 mol.

    Using cross multiplication:

    1.0 mole of CO₂ produces → 0.5 mole of O₂, from the stichiometry.

    0.205 mole of CO₂ produces →? mole of O₂.

    The no. of moles of O₂ produced from 4.60 L of CO₂ = (0.5 mole) (0.205 mole) / (1.0 mole) = 0.103 mole. ∴ The volume of O₂ produced from 4.60 L of CO₂ = nRT/P = (0.103 mol) (0.082 L. atm/mol. K) (273.0 K) / (1.0 atm) = 2.30 liters.
