When CO2( g)\mathrm{CO}_{2(\mathrm{~g})} is passed over red hot coke it partially gets reduced to CO(g)\mathrm{CO}(g). Upon passing 0.5 L0.5 \mathrm{~L} of CO2(g)\mathrm{CO}_2(g) over red hot coke, the total volume of the gases increased to 700 mL700 \mathrm{~mL}. The composition of the gaseous mixture at STP is

Options

  1. ACO2=300 mL;CO=400 mL\mathrm{CO}_2=300 \mathrm{~mL} ; \mathrm{CO}=400 \mathrm{~mL}
  2. BCO2=0.0 mL;CO=700 mL\mathrm{CO}_2=0.0 \mathrm{~mL} ; \mathrm{CO}=700 \mathrm{~mL}
  3. CCO2=200 mL;CO=500 mL\mathrm{CO}_2=200 \mathrm{~mL} ; \mathrm{CO}=500 \mathrm{~mL}
  4. DCO2=350 mL;CO=350 mL\mathrm{CO}_2=350 \mathrm{~mL} ; \mathrm{CO}=350 \mathrm{~mL}

Correct answer

A. CO2=300 mL;CO=400 mL\mathrm{CO}_2=300 \mathrm{~mL} ; \mathrm{CO}=400 \mathrm{~mL}
