State the volume occupied by 40 gm of methane at STP, if its vapour density (V.D.) is 8

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Vapour denisty = 8
Molecular mass = `2 xx` V.D.
`=2xx8=16`
`therefore` 1 mole of methane has mass = 16 g
16 g of methane has volume at S.T.P. = 22.4 L
Hence, 40 g of methane has volume at S. T.P.
`=(22.4)/16xx40/1=56` litres
Volume occupied by 40 g of hydrocarbon, `CH_(4)` at S.T.P. = 56 litre.
