The diagram shows an experiment in which gases hydrogen and carbon dixide are placed in two jars as shown in the figure. If the lid separating the two jars be removed, what will the constituents in the gas jar A after a few minutes ?
(a) carbon dioxide only
(b) hydrogen only
(c ) mixture of carbon dioxide and hydrogen.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(c ) The gas jar A will contain both the gases carbon dioxide and hydrogen. Actually, the molecules of the gas present in one jar will move into the empty spaces present in the other jar and vice versa.

    The figure demonstrates the adiabatic curves for two gases, helium and carbon dioxide. Which curve corresponds to which gas?

    Since coal and petroleum have been formed from bio-mass, in addition to carbon, these contain hydrogen, nitrogen and sulphur. When these are burnt, the products are carbon dioxide, water, oxides of nitrogen and oxides of sulphur. When combustion takes place in insufficient air (oxygen), then carbon monoxide is formed instead of carbon dioxide. Of these products, the oxides of sulphur and nitrogen and carbon monoxide are poisonous at high concentrations and carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. Another way of looking at coal and petroleum is that they are huge reservoirs of carbon and if all of this carbon is converted to carbon dioxide, then the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is going to increase, leading to intense global warming. Thus, we need to use these resources judiciously. of the above mentioned gases, which one is the green house gas and what does it lead to ?
