if the mass ratio of N2 and co2 is 7 : 11 in a closed cylindrical then there molar ratio will be
answer : molar ratio = 1 : 1
explanation : given, mass ratio of N2 and CO2 is 7 : 11 in a closed cylindrical vessel.
let proportionality constant is x,
then, mass of N2 gas = 7x
and mass of CO2 gas = 11x
we know,
- molecular mass of N2 = 28g/mol
- molecular mass of CO2 = 44g/mol
so, no of moles of N2 = 7x/28 = x/4
no of moles of CO2 = 11x/44 = x/4
hence, molar ratio of N2 and CO2 = (x/4)/(x/4) = 1/1
Explanation:
Because it's a closed cylinder, No gas can diffuse out.
Given, Mass ratio of N2 and CO2 is 7 : 11.
Let us say, m g of Nitrogen is taken.
then, 11 m/7 g of Carbon dioxide is taken.
Converting into moles,
1 mole of Nitrogen = 28 g
1 mole of Carbon dioxide = 44 g.
We have,
Number of moles of N2 = m/28
Number of moles of CO2 = 11m/7 ÷ 44
Molar ratio ( N2 : CO2)
Therefore, Molar ratio of N2, CO2 is 1 : 1 when they are taken in the ratio of 7 : 11 of their masses.
