100g of CO2 can be converted to liters using the ideal gas law. At standard temperature and pressure (STP), 1 mole of CO2 (44g) occupies 22.4 liters. Therefore, 100g of CO2 is approximately 51 liters.

FAQs & Answers

  1. What is the ideal gas law? The ideal gas law relates pressure, volume, temperature, and the number of moles of a gas, expressed as PV=nRT.
  2. How do you calculate liters from grams? To calculate liters from grams, use the molar mass to find moles, then apply the ideal gas law to find the volume in liters.
  3. What are standard temperature and pressure? Standard temperature and pressure are defined as 0 degrees Celsius and 1 atmosphere of pressure, used for consistency in gas measurements.
