Q118 / 200 · NEET 2022 (Phase 1) · Physics

The volume occupied by the molecules contained in 4.5 kg water at STP, if the intermolecular forces vanish away is

  • A
    5.6×103 m3
  • B
    5.6×10-3 m3
  • Correct answer
    C
    5.6 m3
  • D
    5.6×106 m3

Solution

Molecular mass of water is 18 g mol-1

Therefore, number of moles in 4.5 kg of water will be,

n=450018=250

Volume occupied by one mole of gas at STP is 22.4 Litre

Therefore, volume occupied by 250 mol of water will be

V=22.4×10-3×250

⇒  V=5.6 m3

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