1 mole of any gas occupy 22.4 L at STP (standard temperature and pressure, 0°C and 1 atm).
Let given gases be 1 mole. So their volumes will be the same, 22.4 liters.
Density is the ratio of mass to volume.
By formula; density= mass/volume; d=m/V
To find out masses of gases, do the mole calculation.
By formula; mole= mass/molar mass; n= m/M; m= n*M
Molar masses are calculated as
1. C₂H₆ (ethane) = 2*12 g/mol + 6*1 g/mol= 30 g/mol
2. NO (nitrogen monoxide) = 1*14 g/mol + 1*16 g/mol= 30 g/mol
3. NH₃ (ammonia) = 1*14 g/mol + 3*1 g/mol= 17 g/mol
4. H₂O (water) = 2*1 g/mol + 1*16 g/mol= 18 g/mol
5. SO₂ (sulfur dioxide) = 1*32 g/mol + 2*16 g/mol= 64 g/mol
Use Periodic Table to get atomic mass of elements.
Since their volumes are equal, compounds having the same molar mass will have the same density.
Recall the formula d= m/V.
Ethane and nitrogen monoxide have the same density.
The answer is C₂H₆ and NO.
The equation is :
moles=mass/molar mass
so, the mass is 203 and molar mass is 159.69
You divide the 203 by 156.69 as the equation shows
so the moles is 1.27 mol.
The best answer choice here would be 'Combination'
