I am not sure if what I did is right

    V SO2 = 3.814 mL

    Explanation:

    ∴ V air = 1 m³ = 1000 L

    ∴ [SO2]air = 0.010 ppm mg/L

    ⇒ V SO2 = ?

    mass SO2:

    ⇒ m SO2 = (0.010 mg/L) * (1000 L) = 10 mg = 0.01 g

    mol SO2:

    ∴ molar mass SO2 = 64.066 g/mol

    ⇒ n SO2 = (0.01 g) * (mol/64.066 g) = 1.5609 E-4 mol

    assuming ideal gas at STP:

    ∴ PV = RTn

    ⇒ V = RTn/P

    ∴ P = 1 atm

    ∴ T = 298 K

    ∴ R = 0.082 atm. L/K. mol

    ⇒ V = ((0.082 atm. L/K. mol) (298 K) (1.5609 E-4 mol)) / (1 atm)

    ⇒ V = 3.814 E-3 L = 3.814 mL
