If 150 cc of a gas A contains X molecules, how many molecules of gas B will be present in 75 cc of B. The gases A and B are under the same conditions of temperature and pressure. Name the law on which the problem is based.
Answer
According to Avogadro’s law : equal volumes of all gases under similar conditions of temperature and pressure contain equal number of molecules.
Given,
150 cc of a gas A contains X molecules
Therefore, 150 cc of B will also contain X molecule.
Hence, 75 cc of B will contain X/2 molecules.
The problem is based on Avogadro's law.
