Question

Equal masses of h2 o2 and methane have been taken in a container of volume v at temperature 27 degree celsius in identical conditions the ratio of the volume of gases h2 h2 o2 methane would be

Answer 1

Answer:

ANSWER

Assume that 100 g each of hydrogen, oxygen and methane are present.

The volume of gases is directly proportional to the number of moles of gases.

The molar mass of hydrogen, oxygen and methane are 2 g/mol, 32 g/mol and 16 g/mol respectively.

The number of moles of hydrogen, oxygen and methane are
