A
in cubic centimetres (cm^3)
or cubic decimetres (dm^3)
2
Q
A
3
Q
how do you get from cm^3 to dm^3
A
divide by 1000
4
Q
how do you get from dm^3 to cm^3
A
x1000
5
Q
how can you calculate moles of gas
A
moles = volume (dm^3) / 24
moles = volume (cm^3) / 24,000
6
Q
what would be the steps to answer a question like this:
calculate the volume of O2 needed to react with 10g of N2
A
1) convert mass of N2 into moles of N2
2) use the mole ratio from the balancing numbers in the equation
3) convert moles of O2 into volume of O2
