QJEEM22Ph38d0: JEE Main 2022 Physics - Class 11 JEEM22Ph38d0 Solution: A mixture of hydrogen and oxygen has volume 2000 cm 3 ,…

A mixture of hydrogen and oxygen has volume 2000 cm3, temperature 300 K, pressure 100 kPa and mass 0.76 g. The ratio of number of moles of hydrogen to number of moles of oxygen in the mixture will be:

[Take gas constant R = 8.3 JK−1mol−1]

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 13
  • B 31
  • C 116
  • D 161

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

P1V=n1RT

P2V=n2RT

⇒ (100 kPa) V = (n1 + n2)RT

⇒n1+n2=(100kPa)(2000cm3)8.3×300 ..... (1)

Also, n1 × 2 + n2 × 32 = 0.76 ...... (2)

Solving (1) and (2),

n1 = 0.06

n2 = 0.02

⇒n1n2=3
