Verified Answer :

A sample of oxygen gas had a volume of 2.50 L at STP.

Answer : The mass of oxygen is 160 grams.

Solution : Given,

Moles of \(O_2\) = 5 moles

Molar mass of \(O_2\) = 32 g/mole

Formula used :

\(\text{ Mass of }O_2=\text{ Moles of }O_2\times \text{ Molar mass of }O_2\)

\(\text{ Mass of }O_2=(5moles)\times (32g/mole)\)

\(\text{ Mass of }O_2=160g\)

Therefore, 160 grams of \(O_2\) are in 5.0 moles of the oxygen gas.
