Calculate the volume of O(2) and volume ...

Calculate the volume of `O_(2)` and volume of air needed for combustion of `1 kg` carbon at `STP`.

A

9333.3 litre

B

933.33 litre

C

93.33 litre

D

1866.67 litre

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`C + O_(2) to co_(2) `
1000g
`(1000)/(2)` mole
`n_(O)_(2)` req. `=(1000)/(2)` mole
`air _(req). = (1000)/(12)xx(1)/(0.21)` mole
`(1000)(12xx0.21)xx22.4L`
=8888.8 L
