    Mass = 30.104 g

    Explanation:

    Given dа ta:

    Volume of Cl₂ = 8.80 L

    Pressure = 890 torr (890/760 = 1.17 atm)

    Temperature = 23°C (23+273 = 296K)

    Mass of chlorine = ?

    Solution:

    PV = nRT

    n = PV/RT

    n = 1.17 atm * 8.80 L / 0.0821 atm. L. k⁻¹. mol⁻¹ * 296K

    n = 10.296 atm. L / 24.30 atm. L. mol⁻¹

    n = 0.424 mol

    Mass of chlorine:

    Mass = number of moles * molar mass

    Mass = 0.424 mol * 71 g/mol

    Mass = 30.104 g
