What is the volume occupied by \(2 \mathrm{~g}\) of helium gas at STP? (molar mass of helium gas \(=4 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}\) )

  1. A \(5.6 \mathrm{dm}^3\)
  2. B \(22.4 \mathrm{dm}^3\)
  3. C \(11.2 \mathrm{dm}^3\)
  4. D \(2.0 \mathrm{dm}^3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(11.2 \mathrm{dm}^3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Moles of \(\mathrm{He}=\frac{2}{4}=0.5\)
\(\therefore\) Volume occupied at STP \(=0.5 \times 22.4=11.2 \mathrm{dm}^3\)
