Find the Density at STP O

$O$

Step 1

To find the mass of $1$ mole of $O$ look up the atomic mass of each element and multiply it by the number of atoms contained in each element in the molecule.

mass of $1$ mole of $O$ $=$ $(mass of O)$

Step 2

Fill in the atomic masses from the periodic table.

mass of $1$ mole of $O$ $=$ $(16)$

Step 3

Remove parentheses.

mass of $1$ mole of $O = 16 g$

Step 4

One mole of any gas occupies $22.4 L$ at STP (standard temperature and pressure).

$V = 22.4 L$

Step 5

Density is mass over volume.

$\frac{16 g}{22.4 L}$

Step 6

Factor $16$ out of $16 g$ .

$\frac{16 (g)}{22.4 L}$

Step 7

Factor $22.4$ out of $22.4 L$ .

$\frac{16 (g)}{22.4 (L)}$

Step 8

Separate fractions.

$\frac{16}{22.4} \cdot \frac{g}{L}$

Step 9

Divide $16$ by $22.4$ .

$0.\overline{714285} \frac{g}{L}$

Step 10

Combine $0.\overline{714285}$ and $\frac{g}{L}$ .

$\frac{0.\overline{714285} g}{L}$
