The mass of pure gas to be mixed with 70 g of pure CO so that the partial pressure of CO is equal to — States of Matter and Gaseous State Chemistry Question
Question
The mass of pure $\text{CH}_4$ gas to be mixed with 70 g of pure CO so that the partial pressure of CO is equal to the partial pressure of $\text{CH}_4$, is
Answer: A
💡 Solution & Explanation
Equal partial pressures mean equal moles. n(CO) = 70/28 = 2.5 mol. Mass CH4 = 2.5 * 16 = 40 g. Therefore, correct answer is A.
