Question

A gaseous mixture contains NH3 and HCl in the molar ration 1:2. What is the number of components of the system?


1. One
2. Two
3. Three​

Answer 1

The answer is of the question ( Two )

Answer 2

The number of components of the system is two.

• The number of different materials present in a system defines the number of components of the system.
• A gaseous mixture contains ammonia and HCl in the molar ratio of 1:2 which means it contains a mixture of two different gases ammonia and hydrochloric acid.
• Thus, the number of components in the system is two. One is ammonia gas and another one is HCl.
• Hence the correct option is 2.
