The gas would be oxygen which occupies the volume of 2.24L at stp.
We have to identify a gas the mass of which is 3.2g at stp occupies a volume of 2.24 L.
It is not an easy task to identify a gas with just given data , because molecular mass of a gas may be same for more than one gases. There should be some options to find right answer.
Let's try to solve this question.
Given,
- mass of gas, w = 3.2 g
- volume of gas at STP , v = 2.24 L
We know, one mole of an ideal gas occupies a volume of 22.4 L at stp.
∵ 3.2 g of a gas occupies a volume of 2.24 L at stp.
∴ 32g of the same gas occupies a volume of 22.4 L at stp.
but gas occupies 22.4L at stp = one mole of gas
∴ one mole of gas = 32 g
∴ molecular mass of gas = 32 g/mol
Now, only one option comes in our mind and that is oxygen gas, isn't it ?
molecular mass of oxygen gas (O₂) = 32 g/mol.
Therefore the gas would be oxygen which occupies the volume of 2.24L at stp.
