A gas mixture contains 20% CO, 30% SO2, and 50% N2, if the partial pressure of N2 is 5 atm at 27^oC, what is the molar volume of N2?(a) 2.4 liter(b) 3.7 liter(c) 4.9 liter(d) 5.6 literThe question was posed to me by my college professor while I was bunking the class.Origin of the question is Ideal Gas Mixtures and Partial Pressure in chapter Recycle, Bypass, Purge, Ideal Gases and Real Gases of Basic Chemical Engineering |

Answer» RIGHT ANSWER is (a) 2.4 liter The best I can explain: Total pressure of MIXTURE = 5/0.5 = 10 ATM, => Molar Volume of N2 = Total molar volume of mixture = 0.0821*300/10 = 2.4 liter. |
