A sample of methane, CH4, occupies 4.50 dm3 (Liters) at STPHow many moles of this gas are present. (Note:One mole of any gas occupies 22.4 liters at STP)
A
2.0
B
16
C
24
D
0.2
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -At STP of 273.15 K (0°C) and 1 atm, the molar volume of a gas is 22.4 L/mol. So at STP, if you have 22.4 L of CH4, you have one mole of CH4.

Detailed explanation-2: -We are given $4.48 L$ of an ideal gas at STP. Thus, we have to calculate the number of moles of ideal gas that occupies a volume of $4.48 L$. Thus, $4.48 L$ of an ideal gas at STP contains $0.2 mol$ of an ideal gas.

Detailed explanation-3: -44.8 liter, so we will get answer, will be 2 moles.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are about 2 mol of methane present.
