Question

20ml.each of hydrogen and oxygen and 10 Ml.of carbon monoxide are exploded in an enclosure.What will be the volume and composition of the mixture of the. gases when they are cooled at room temperature.
​

Answer 1

The composition of resulting mixture will be 5 ml of O2 and 10 ml of CO2.

Explanation:

Consider the given values

volume of hydrogen=20 ml

volume of oxygen=20 ml

volume of carbon monoxide=10 ml

so convert the conditions into equation form we get

$2H_{2} +O_{2} --->2H_{2} O$

$2CO+O_{2} --->2CO_{2}$

consider the two equations 2V of $H_{2}$ reacts with=1 V of $O_{2}$

so 20 ml of H2 will react with=10 ml of O2

Remaining O2 is

$=20-10\\=10 ml$

similarly

For 10 ml of CO the oxygen required is =5 ml

remaining O2 is

$=10-5\\=5ml$

Finally the composition of resulting mixture will be 5 ml of O2 and 10 ml of CO2.
