The number of moles of oxygen obtained by the electrolytic decomposition of 108 g water is
Options
- A2.5
- B3
- C5
- D7.5
Correct answer
B. 3
Step-by-step solution
( array ll 2 H ₂ O Electrolysis 2 H ₂+ & O ₂ 2 mol & 1 mol 2 18 =36 g array ) ( 36 ~g ) of ( H ₂ O ) produce 1 mole of oxygen ( 108 ~g ) of water will produce oxygen (= 108 36 =3 ~mol )
