An oxygen cylinder of volume 30 litre has 18.20 moles of oxygen. After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, its gauge pressure drops to 11 atmospheric pressure at temperature 27^ C . The mass of the oxygen withdrawn from the cylinder is nearly equal to : [Given, R= 100 12 ~J ~mol ⁻¹ ~K ⁻¹ , and molecular mass of O₂=32,1 ~atm pressure .=1.01 10^5 ~N / m ]
Options
- A0.125 ~kg
- B0.144 ~kg
- C0.116 ~kg
- D0.156 ~kg
Correct answer
C. 0.116 ~kg
Step-by-step solution
aligned & n _ f = P _ f V RT [ P _ abs =12 ~atm ] & = 12 1.01 10^5 30 10⁻³ ( 100 12 ) 300 & =14.544 & moles removed =18.2-14.544=3.656 & mass removed =3.656 32 1000 ~kg =0.116 ~kg aligned
