Question
If equal weights of oxygen and nitrogen are placed in separate containers of equal volume at the same temperature, which one of the following statements is true?
(mol wt: N2 = 28, O2 = 32)
(mol wt: N2 = 28, O2 = 32)
Options
A.Both flasks contain the same number of molecules.
B.The pressure in the nitrogen flask is greater than the one in the oxygen flask.
C.More molecules are present in the oxygen flask.
D.Molecules in the oxygen flask are moving faster on the average than the ones in the nitrogen flask.
Solution
nN2 > nO2 where ′n′ is no of moles of gases.
⇒ nN2 > nO2 because Pgasα n.
⇒ nN2 > nO2 because Pgasα n.
