Choose the correct option for the total pressure (in atm.) in a mixture of 4 g O2 and 2 g H2 confined in a total volume of one litre at 0 C is : [Given R = 0.082 L atm mol-1 K-1, T = 273 K]
- 26.02
- 2.518
- 2.602
- 25.18
Answer
(4) 25.18
Solution
nO2 = 432 = 0.125 mol, nH2 = 22 = 1 mol
ntotal = 0.125 + 1 = 1.125 mol
By Dalton's law with pV = nRT, ptotal = ntotalRTV
ptotal = 1.125 0.082 2731
= 25.18 atm
Answer: (4)
