Equal masses of and are taken in a container. Which of the following is/are correct? — Mole Concept and Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry Chemistry Question
Question
Equal masses of $O_2$ and $H_2$ are taken in a container. Which of the following is/are correct?
Answer: A,B,C,D
💡 Solution & Explanation
Let mass be $m$. $\text{Moles } O_2 = m/32$; $\text{Moles } H_2 = m/2$. <br>$\text{Ratio} = (m/32) : (m/2) = 1 : 16$. <br>Molecules follow the mole ratio. <br>Atoms ratio $= (2 \times 1) : (2 \times 16) = 1 : 16$. <br>Since $n_{H_2} > n_{O_2}$, $H_2$ exerts more partial pressure.
