20 mL of methane are burnt with 50 mL of oxygen, the volume of the gas left after cooling to room temperature will be

A

80 mL

B

60 mL

C

30 mL

D

20 mL

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`underset(20 mL)underset(1 vol) (CH_(4)) + underset(40 mL)underset(2 vol)(2O_(2)) to underset(20 mL)underset(1 vol) (CO_(2)) + underset(vol.)underset("negligible")(2 H_2O)`
Volume of `CO_2` formed = 20 mL
Volume of `O_2` used = 40 mL .
`therefore` Volume of `O_2` left unused = 50 - 40 = 10 mL
Volume of gas left after cooling = volume of `CO_2` formed + volume of `O_2` left unused = 20 + 10 = 30 mL
