Equal mass of H2 ,O2 and methane have taken in a container of volume V at temp. 27drgreeC in identical conditions . The ratio of the volume of gases H2,O2 and methane will be
Dear student
Assume that 100 g each of hydrogen, oxygen and methane are present.
The volume of gases is directly proportional to the number of moles of gases.
The molar mass of hydrogen, oxygen and methane are 2 g/mol, 32 g/mol and 16 g/mol respectively.
The number of moles of hydrogen, oxygen and methane are
2/ 100 ,
32/ 100
and
16 1/100
respectively.
The ratio of the volumes of hydrogen, oxygen and methane will be
2 1/100 : 32 /100 : 16 1/100 =
