Q59 / 180 · KCET 2012 · Chemistry

$20 \mathrm{~mL}$ of methane is completely burnt using $50 \mathrm{~mL}$ of oxygen. The volume of the gas left after cooling to room temperature is

  • A
    $40 \mathrm{~mL}$
  • B
    $60 \mathrm{~mL}$
  • Correct answer
    C
    $30 \mathrm{~mL}$
  • D
    $80 \mathrm{~mL}$

Solution


Figure
$\therefore$ Volume of gas left after cooling $=10 \mathrm{mLO}_{2}+20 \mathrm{~mL} \mathrm{CO}_{2}=30 \mathrm{~mL}$ $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{g})$ will be condense to $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{l})$ after cooling.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
