Ideal Gas Law
What is the volume that 500 g of iodine will occupy under the conditions:
    Temp = 300oC and Pressure = 740 mm Hg?
Step 1)  Write down given information.
        mass =  500 g iodine
        T = 300oC
        P = 740 mm Hg
        R = 0.0821 atm . L / mol . K

Step 2)  Equation:
PV  =  nRT
Step 3)  Solve for variable
nRT
V
=
P
Step 4)  Substitute in numbers and solve
(500 g)(0.0821 atm . L / mol . K)(300oC)
=
V
740 mm Hg
V =
