6. At standard temperature and pressure 1 mole of any gas has a volume of 22.4 liters of gas. If the 5 grams of baking soda reacted at standard temperature and pressure, what volume of gas would be produced?

Stoichiometric Calculations Involving Ideal Gases at STP

Stoichiometric calculations involving gases allow us to convert between mass, number of moles, and most importantly, volume of gases. The following relationship makes this possible:

1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure (273 K and 1 atm) occupies a volume of 22.4 L.

While the above relationship is an estimation, it is a relatively good approximation at STP, and can be used reliably in calculations.

the molecules move in straight line until they collide with each other or with the walls of the container. collisions are perfectly elastic; when two molecules collide, they change their directions and kinetic energies, but the total kinetic energy is conserved.
