Solution

The correct option is A

0.5 mol


Given volume of carbon-dioxide (CO2) at STP = 11.2 L
Molar volume at STP (in litres) = 22.4 L
In case of gases at STP,
Number of moles = Volume at STP (litres)Molar volume at STP (litres) .... (i)
Inserting the values of the volume of carbon-dioxide at STP and molar volume at STP (litres) in equation (i) we have:
Number of moles = 11.222.4
Moles present in 11.2 litres of CO2 at S.T.P is 0.5 mol.
