20 mL of liquid pyridine ( C_5H_5N , specific gravity 0.79 ) is...
of liquid pyridine (, specific gravity ) is completely burnt in excess oxygen. Find the total volume of the gaseous products measured at STP.
(Assume water formed is in the liquid state and molar volume of a gas at STP is )
(Assume water formed is in the liquid state and molar volume of a gas at STP is )
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
Mass of pyridine ()
Molar mass of
Moles of pyridine
The balanced chemical equation for the combustion of pyridine is:
Since water is in the liquid state, the gaseous products are and .
Moles of gaseous products per mole of pyridine
Total moles of gaseous products formed
Volume of gaseous products at STP
