Trinitrotoluene (TNT) is commonly used for commercial mining purposes. The process used to extract oil and gas from shale relies on components of TNT. Given the equation for the detonation of TNT:

[tex]C_7H_5N_3O_6(s) --\ \textgreater \ 3.5 CO (g) + 2.5 H_2O (g) + 1.5 N_2 (g) + 3.5 C (s)[/tex]

Calculate the volume (in liters) of carbon monoxide formed when 4500 grams of TNT combusts at 1.2
atmospheres of pressure and 28.4 °C.
