Answer 1

$\huge{\textcolor{red}{\star{\mathcal{Answer :≈\star}}}}$⋆

⟹ Given Compositions N2, 78%; O2, 21%; Ar, 0.9% and CO2, 0.1% by volume.

\ ⟹ We need to follow Avagadro Principle.

\ ⟹ The molar ratios are also the volume ratios for the gases that is Avogadro’s principle.

\ ⟹ 1 Avagadro Number = 6.023×10^23 particles or sub-units

\ ⟹ Molecular mass of air by calculations ----

\ ⟹ = (78×28 + 21×32 + 0.9×40 + 0.1×44)/(78 + 21 + 0.9 + 0.1)

\ ⟹ Furthur solving ,

\ ⟹ = 28.964.

Answer 2

Given Compositions N2, 78%; O2, 21%; Ar, 0.9% and CO2, 0.1% by volume.

We need to follow Avagadro Principle.

The molar ratios are also the volume ratios for the gases that is Avogadro’s principle.

1 Avagadro Number = 6.023×10^23 particles or sub-units

Molecular mass of air by calculations ----

= (78×28 + 21×32 + 0.9×40 + 0.1×44)/(78 + 21 + 0.9 + 0.1)

Furthur solving ,

= 28.964.
