Question

24 cc Marsh gas (CH4) was mixed with 106 cc oxygen and then exploded. On cooling, the volume of the mixture became 82 cc, of which, 58 cc was unchanged oxygen.
Which law does this experiment support?
Explain with calculations.​

Answer 1

Answer:

In this question, we are talking about the volume so, mole can be related to the volume of the substance. Hence, we can say that one volume of propane reacts with five volumes of oxygen. Therefore, \[20\,c{m^3}\] volume of propane is burnt for every \[100\,c{m^3}\] of oxygen.
