Expert Solution
Step 1

Given

Volume of gas , V = 700 mL = 0.700 L

Pressure of gas , P = 1.05 atm

Temperature of gas , T = 20oC = 20 +273.15 = 293.15 K

Moles of NO2 gas , n = PVRT = 1.05 x 0.70.0821 x 293.15  = 0.0305 mol

For formation of 2 mole of NO2 gas , heat absorbed = 67.7 kJ

So, for 0.0305 mole of NO2 gas , heat absorbed = 67.7 x 0.03052 = 1.034 kJ
