Recall that at standard temperature and pressure (STP), one mole of any ideal gas occupies a volume of 22.4 liters. This is a key concept from the ideal gas law and molar volume of gases.
Identify the number of moles of chlorine gas given in the problem, which is 2 moles.
Use the relationship between moles and volume at STP: \(\text{Volume} = \text{moles} \times 22.4\ \text{L/mol}\).
Substitute the given number of moles into the equation: \(\text{Volume} = 2\ \text{mol} \times 22.4\ \text{L/mol}\).
Calculate the product to find the total volume occupied by 2 moles of chlorine gas at STP.
