ANSWER

The number of moles of argon is 0.500 mole

EXPLANATION

Given data

The volume of argon at STP = 11.2L

Let x represents the number of moles of argon

Recall that, at STP, 1 mole is equivalent to 22.4L

Hence, we can calculate the number of moles of argon by using the conversion at STP

[tex]\begin{gathered} 1\text{ mole of argon }\rightarrow\text{ 22.4L} \\ x\text{ moles of argon }\rightarrow\text{ 11.2L} \\ \text{cross multiply} \\ 1\cdot\text{ 11.2 = x }\cdot\text{ 22.4} \\ 11.2\text{ = 22.4x} \\ \text{Divide both sides 22.4} \\ \frac{11.2}{22.4}\text{ = }\frac{22.4x}{22.4} \\ x\text{ = 0.5 mole} \\ To\text{ the correct significant figures, the number of moles of argon is 0.500 moles} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the number of moles of argon to the correct significant figures is 0.500 mole
