Question

1 L mixture of CO and CO2 gases were passed over hot coke and final volume of the mixture became 1200 mL. Volume of CO gas in the initial mixture was

Answer 1

Answer:

C+CO

2

→2CO

⇒ Initial volume =1L

Final volume =1.6L

Let V

CO

2

=x V

CO

=(1−x)

⇒(1−x)+2x=1.6

1+x=1.6

x=0.6

∴%CO

2

=60%, %CO=40%

Hence, solved.
