My teacher stated:
At standard conditions, 1 liter of air at 21% oxygen possesses 0.21 L of oxygen. Since at STP, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L, simply divide 0.21/22.4, to arrive at 0.0094 moles of oxygen.
I have a question regarding this. What if I trap 100 ml of air in a vessel and maintain 273 K and pressure 1 atm? So, in that case, what does it mean that oxygen has volume of 21 ml? Won’t the volume of oxygen and nitrogen be same inside vessel? Or am I wrong somehow?
