Tricia puts 5.30 g of dry ice (solid CO₂)into a 4.00-L container and seals the top.The dry ice turns to gas at room temperature (20.0°C).Find the pressure increase in the 4.00-L container.(One mole of CO₂ has a mass of 5.30 g,R = 0.082 1 L⋅atm/mol⋅K.Ignore the initial volume of the dry ice. )

Using the ideal gas law, PV = nRT, where n = 1 mole, R = 0.0821 L⋅atm/mol⋅K, T = 293 K (20°C + 273), and V = 4.00 L, the pressure P is calculated as 6.01 atm.
