50cm3 of hydrogen are sparked with 20cm3 of...

50cm3 of hydrogen are sparked with 20cm3 of oxygen at 100°C and 1atm . The total volume of the residual gases in

A.

50 cm3

B.

10 cm3

C.

40 cm3

D.

30 cm3

E.

70 cm3

Correct answer is A

The equation of the reaction is:

2H_{{2}{(g)}} + O_{{2}{(g)}} = 2H_{2}O_{(g)}

Before Sparking we have : 50cm^{3} : 20cm^{3}

On Sparking, 40cm^{3} : 20cm^{3} : 40cm^{3}

After Sparking, we have 10cm^{3} : 0  : 40cm^{3}

Hence, the volume of residual gases = (10+40)cm^{3} = 50cm^{3}
