40 cm3 of methane reacts with chlorine. The reaction for the same is CH4 + 2Cl2 CH2Cl2 + 2HCI Find (a) The volume of chlorine gas used. (b) The volume of hydrogen chloride gas formed. (c) How is hydrogen chloride gas dried?

(a) Volume of chlorine gas used = ? For 1 Vol of methane = 2V of Cl2 required For 40 cm3 of methane = 40 x 2 = 80 cm3 of Cl2 is required. (b) Volume of HCl gas formed = ? [By Gay Lussac's law] 1 Vol of methane produces = 2 Vol. HCl 40 cm3 of methane produces = 80 cm3 HCl Hence, volume of HCl gas formed = 80 cm3 and chlorine gas required = 80 cm3 (c) Hydrogen chloride gas is dried by passing through a washer bottle containing concentrated sulphuric acid.
