1.35 understand how to carry out calculations involving gas volumes and the molar volume of gas

At standard temperature and pressure, one mole of any gas will occupy 24000 cm3; also known as 24dm3.

Calculating molar volume from mass

Example:

976 cm3 of oxygen was found to have a mass of 1.3 g
Calculate the molar volume of oxygen, under these conditions.

Volume = mass x no. of moles

Mass of oxygen, O2, = 32.0 g.
Volume of 1 g = 976 ÷ 1.3
Hence, 32 g = (976 ÷ 1.3) × 32 = 24024 cm3
Answer: 24.0 is the volume of 32.0 g of O2.
