What is the volume (in litres) of oxygen at STP required for complete combustion of 32 ~g of CH ₄ ? (Molecular weight of CH ₄ is 16 )
Options
- A44.8
- B89.6
- C22.4
- D179.2
Correct answer
B. 89.6
Step-by-step solution
16 ~g CH ₄ + 2 22.4 ~L 2 O ₂ CO ₂+2 H ₂ O Volume of required for 16 ~g ₄ is =2 22.4 ~L Volume of O ₂ required for 32 ~g CH ₄ is = 2 22.4 16 32=89.6 ~L
