NEET2013ChemistryThermodynamics (C)Actual
When 5 litres of a gas mixture of methane and propane is perfectly combusted at 0^ C and 1 atmosphere, 16 litres of oxygen at the same temperature and pressure is consumed. The amount of heat released from the combustion in kJ ( H _ eomb ( CH ₄ ) .=890 ~kJ ~mol ⁻¹, H _ comb ( C ₃ H ₈ )=2220 ~kJ . mol ⁻¹ )
Options
- A38
- B317
- C477
- D32 benzyl
Correct answer
B. 317
Step-by-step solution
The chemical and their mole reaction can be expressed as follows aligned CH ₄+2 O ₂ & CO ₂+ H ₂ O C ₃ H ₈+5 O ₂ & 3 CO ₂+4 H ₂ O CH ₄+ C ₃ H ₈ & = 5 22.4 =0.22 moles O ₂ & = 16 224 =0.71 moles 2 x+(0.22-x) 5 & =0.71 x & =0.13 Heat liberated & =0.13 890+0.09 & =316 ~kJ aligned
