A gas cylinder can hold 1 kg of hydrogen at room temperature and pressure:(i) Find the number of moles of hydrogen present.(ii) What weight of CO2 can the cylinder hold under similar conditions of temperature and pressure? (H= 1, C = 12,O -16) |

Answer» (i) Weight of hydrogen = 2 × 1 g = 2 g 2 g of hydrogen corresponds to 1 mole of hydrogen 1 g of hydrogen corresponds to mole of hydrogen 1000 g of hydrogen corresponds to × 1000 g mole of H2 = 500 moles (ii) 1 mole of H2 occupy 22.4 L 500 mole of H2 occupy = 22.4 x 500 By Avogadro’s law the volume occupied by CO2 will be same Weight of CO2 = 12 + 2 x 16 = 44 g 22.4 L will weigh 44 1L will weigh \(\frac{44}{22.4}\) 22.4 x 500L will weigh \(\frac{44}{22.4}\times500\) = 22000g = 22kg |
