    742.2 L

    Explanation:

    First we must find the number of moles of nitroglycerine reacted.

    Molar mass of nitroglycerine = 227.0865 g/mol

    Mass of nitroglycerine involved = 1*10^3 g

    Number of moles of nitroglycerine = 1*10^3g/227.0865 g/mol

    n = 4.40361 moles

    T = 1985°C + 273 = 2258K

    P = 1.100atm

    R = 0.082atmLmol-1K-1

    Using the ideal gas equation:

    PV = nRT

    V = nRT/P

    V = 4.40361 * 0.082 * 2258/1.1

    V = 742 L
