When `100 ml` sample of methane and ethane along with excess of `O_(2)` is subjected to electric spark, the contraction in volume was observed to be `212 ml`. When the resulting gases were passed through `KOH` solution, further contraction in volume wasA. `60 ml`B. `96 ml`C. `108 ml`D. `124 ml` |

Answer» Correct Answer - D `{:(CH_(4)(g),+,2O_(2)(g),rarr,CO_(2)(g),+,2H_(2)O(l)),(x,,2x,,x,,):}` `C_(2)H_(6)(g)+(7)/(2)O_(2)(g)rarr2CO_(2)(g)+3H_(2)O(l)` `(100-x)(7)/(2)(100-x) 2(100-x)` Total contraction in volume `2x+2.5 (100-x)= 212` `2x-2.5x= 212-250` `x=38xx2= 76` Therefore, contraction in volume when passed through `KOH` solution `=` Volume of `CO_(2)` evolved `x+2(100-x)= 124ml` |
