Answer:

Mass = 19.85 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of chlorine gas = 80.4 L

Temperature = standard = 273.15 K

Pressure = standard = 1 atm

Mass of chlorine = ?

Molar mass of chlorine gas = 70.9 g/mol

Solution:

PV = nRT

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K

By putting values,

1 atm × 80.4 L = n× 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K  × 273.15 K

80.4 atm.L = n× 22.43 atm.L/mol

n = 22.43 atm.L/mol / 80.4 atm.L

n = 0.28 mol

Mass of Cl₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.28 mol × 70.9 g/mol

Mass = 19.85 g
