    PV = nRT

    n = PV / RT

    n = 11.5atm * 25L / ( .0821 Liters*atm / K*mol * 288K)

    n= 12.16moles

    grams / mw = mols

    grams = mols * mw

    grams = 12.16 * 79.9 * 2 = 1943.17 grams

    so choice D

    PV=nRT

    15oC=288 K

    11.5atm(25L)=n(0.08206 L atm/mol K)(288K)

    n=12.17 mol Br2

    12.17 mol Br2 (159.8 g Br2/1 mol Br2) = 1945 g Br2~ 1940 g
