How many moles of oxygen molecules are present in 112ml of co2 at NTP?
1 answer:
In each mole of carbon dioxide there will be one mole of O₂.
Let us calculate the moles of carbon dioxide gas present first
The conditions are NTP it means , Temperature = 293 K and P = 1 atm
We will use ideal gas equation
PV= nRT
Where
P = Pressure of gas = 1 atm
V= 112mL=0.112L
R= gas constant =0.0821 L atm /mol K
n = moles = ?
Putting values
moles = 0.00466
Thus moles of carbon dioxide will be 0.00466
The moles of O₂ = 0.00466
