AI Thread Summary
To calculate the volume occupied at standard temperature and pressure (STP) by 2.99 x 10^23 molecules of chlorine, the Ideal Gas Law can be applied, or a simpler ratio method can be used. At STP, one mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.4 liters, and one mole contains Avogadro's number of molecules, approximately 6.02 x 10^23. By using the ratio of the number of molecules to Avogadro's number, the volume can be determined. Specifically, the calculation involves multiplying 22.4 liters by the ratio of 2.99 x 10^23 to 6.02 x 10^23, which yields the volume of chlorine gas at STP.

Can someone please calculate the volume occupied at STP by 2.99times10 to the 23rd power molecules of Chlorine. Thank you Very much.

All gases have a specific size at STP. I think it's 22.4L IIRC. Just multiply 22.4 * (2.99 * 10^23) / (avogadro's number)

avogadro's number = 6.02*10^23

incase you didn't know
 
1. Use the Ideal Gas Law, PV =nRT, with n= \frac {2.99*10^{23}} {6.02*10^{23}}, to find V. You know, P, T, R, n.

OR

2. At STP, one mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.4 liters. One mole has 6.02*10^23 molecules. Use ratios to find the volume of 2.99*10^23 molecules.
 
It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...
I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
