A mixture of gases contains H₂ and O₂ gases in the ratio of 1:4(w/w).What is the molar ratio of the two gases in the mixture
Options
(a) 04:01:00
(b) 16:01:00
(c) 02:01:00
(d) 01:04:00
Correct Answer:
04:01:00
Explanation:
Ratio of weight of gases =w(H₂) : w(O₂)= 1:4
Ratio of moles of gases =n(H₂) : n(O₂)=1/2:4/32
.·. Molar Ratio =1/2 ×32/4 =4:1.
