Choose the correct option for the total pressure (in atm.) in a mixture of 4 g O2 and 2 g H2 confined in a total volume of one litre at 0°C is

[Given R = 0.082 L atm mol]–1K–1, T = 273K]

(1) 2.518

(2) 2.602

(3) 25.18

(4) 26.02

Correct answer: (3) 25.18

Explanation:

nO2 = \(\frac{4}{32}\) = \(\frac{1}{8}\) mol

nH2 = \(\frac{2}{2}\) = 1 mol

nTotal = nO2 + nH2 = \(\frac{1}{8}\) + 1

= \(\frac{9}{8}\) mol

PV = nRT

PTotal x 1 = \(\frac{9}{8}\) x 0.082 x 273

PTotal = 25.18 atm
