2 liters

6 liters

D

4 liters

Understanding the Answer

Let's break down why this is correct

Answer

At standard temperature and pressure each mole of an ideal gas occupies 22. 4 L, so the volume is directly proportional to the number of moles. Doubling the amount of gas from 2 moles to 4 moles keeps the temperature and pressure the same, so the volume must also double. Therefore, 4 moles will occupy 22. 4 L × 2, which equals 44.

Detailed Explanation

When you double the amount of gas, its space grows twice as big. Other options are incorrect because Some people think fewer moles means a bigger space; Trying to fit 4 moles into 6 liters assumes extra space for extra gas.
