How much minimum volume of CO at STP is needed to react completely with 0.112 L of `O_(2)` at 1.5 atm. Pressure and `127^(@)C` to give `CO_(2)`.

Explanation

Carbonmonoxide is oxidised in oxygen to give carbon dioxide
`2CO+O_(2)rarr2CO_(2)`
1 mole of `O_(2)` = 2 moles of CO
1 volume of ` O_(2)` = 2 volumes of CO
0.112L `O_(2)` at STP = 0.224L CO at STP
STP conditions Given conditions
`P_(1)=1atm" "P_(2)=1.5atm`
`T_(1)=273K" "T_(2)=400K`
`V_(1)=0.224L" "V_(2)=?`
Volume of carbonmonoxide needed in the given conditions `=V_(2)= (P_(1)V_(1))/(T_(1))xx(T_(2))/(P_(2)) = (1xx0.224xx400)/(273xx1.5) =229.3 L`
