What volume of oxygen at s.t.p would react with carbon to form 4.40g of CO2 according to the following equation? C(s) + O2(g) → CO2(g) [O = 16; C =12; 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4dm3 at s.t.p]

A.

0.224dm3

B.

2.24dm3

C.

4.40dm3

D.

4.48dm3

E.

22.4dm3

Correct answer is B

From the equation, C + O2 → CO2 : 22.dm3 of oxygen is required to form 44g of CO2 the volume of O2 required to produce 4.4gm is x, :. x = 44/44 X 22.4dm3

D.

V \(\alpha\) 1 / p(T constant)

E.

V1/T1 = / T2

Correct answer is D
