can anybody give me the density of arsenic oxide at STP

is this the correct formula

volume = mass/ density

thanks

Yes, but if you want the density, it is density = mass/volume.

The number I have seen floating around on this board is 17.8 g/L but the density of a gas and the density of a solid are not the same. The density of a gas is both termperature and pressure dependent. I assume the end goal is to arrive at an empirical formula and a molecula formula. I have also seen the numbers 0.927 and 0.702 floating around. One question I have seen is asking me to help determine the formula from the density. It is easier to do with the grams, in my opinion.

No one has answered this question yet.
