A 25 liter balloon holding 1.5 moles of carbon dioxide leaks. If we are able to determine that 0.9 moles of carbon dioxide escaped before the container could be sealed, what is the new volume of the container?

10 Litre

Explanation:

Given that ::

v1 = 25L ; n1 = 1.5 mole ; v2 =? ; n2 = (1.5-0.9) = 0.6 mole

Using the relation :

(n2 * v1) / n1 = (n2 * v2) / n2

v2 = (n2 * v1) / n1

v2 = (0.6 mole * 25 Litre) / 1.5 mole

v2 = 15 / 1.5 litre

v2 = 10 Litre

the answer is c i took the test
