V = 18.8 L

Explanation:

This question is solved by using the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT ∴ V = nRT/P

where n = 0.788 mmol = 0.788 mol (1 mmol is a thousandths of a mol)

R = R constant for ideal gases = 0.08206 Latm/Kmol

T = 17.0 ºC = (17.0 + 273) K = 290 K

and V = volume in liters our unknown

Plugging our values and solving for V,

V = 0.788 mol x 0.08206 Latm/Kmol x 290 K / 1atm = 18.8 L
