Calculate the volume occupied by 0.46 g of nitrogen dioxide at S.T.P. [N = 14 amu, O = 16 amu]

Explanation

To calculate the volume occupied by 0.46 g of nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) at standard temperature and pressure (S.T.P.), we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Calculate the molar mass of nitrogen dioxide (NO₂)
- The molar mass of nitrogen (N) is 14 g/mol.
- The molar mass of oxygen (O) is 16 g/mol.
- The molar mass of NO₂ is calculated as follows:
\[
\text{Molar mass of NO₂} = \text{mass of N} + 2 \times \text{mass of O} = 14 \, \text{g/mol} + 2 \times 16 \, \text{g/mol} = 14 + 32 = 46 \, \text{g/mol}
