you have a 7.00-liter container with 1.88 x10^23 molecules of methane gas, ch4, at stp. how many molecules of nitrogen gas, n2, are in an identical container at the same temperature and pressure?

1.88x10²³ molecules of N₂

Explanation:

If the N₂ is at STP conditions and occupies 7L of volume, like the CH₄ we can apply the Ideal Gases Law to find out the moles.

STP = 273K (temperature) and 1atm (pressure)

P .V = n .R.T

1atm . 7L = n . 0.082L.atm/mol.K . 273K

(1atm . 7L) / (0.082L.atm/mol.K . 273K) = n

0.312 moles = n

These are the moles of N₂, so how many molecules are on it?

1 mol has NA molecules

0.312 moles have ( 0.312 .NA) = 1.88x10²³

NA  = Avogadro's number (6.02x10²³)
