Answer:
487 moles of CO2 is needed
Explanation:
What we need to use here is the ideal gas equation.
Mathematically;
PV = nRT
Since we are calculating the number of moles, we can rewrite the equation to be;
n = PV/RT
from the question, we identify the following;
P is the pressure at 150 atm
V is the volume at 80L
T is the temperature which is 27+273 = 300K
R is the molar gas constant which is 0.0821 L atm K^-1 mol^-1
Substituting these values, we have;
n = (150 * 80)/(0.0821 * 300) = 487.2 which is approximately 487 moles
