Question

A mixture of hydrogen and chlorine occupying 36 cm³ was exploded. On shaking it with water, 4 cm³ of hydrogen was left behind. Find the composition of the mixture.

KnowledgeBoat · Accepted Answer

According to Gay lussac's law, As, 4 cm³ of hydrogen was left behind, hence, 36 - 4 = 32 cm³ of mixture of hydrogen and chlorine exploded. As, 1 Vol. of hydrogen requires 1 Vol. of oxygen 16 cm³ hydrogen requires 16 cm³ of oxygen Mixture is 20 cm³ (i.e., 16 + 4) of hydrogen and 16 cm³ of chlorine.
