The video tutorial explains how to convert 261.5 liters of CO2 gas into moles using two methods: the factor label method and a simple division method. The factor label method involves setting up a conversion factor where one mole of gas equals 22.4 liters, allowing the cancellation of units to find the result. The alternative method involves directly dividing the volume by 22.4 liters per mole. Both methods yield the same result of 11.7 moles. The tutorial concludes by recommending the factor label method for its versatility in various unit conversions.
