A quantity of gas is collected in a gradutated tube over the mercury. The volume of the gas at `20^(@)C` is `50.0 mL` and the level of the mercury in the tube is `100 mm` above the outside mercury level. The barometer reads `750 mm`. Volume at `STP` is

A

40 mL

B

42 mL

C

39.8 mL

D

60 mL

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`T_(1) = 20 + 273 = 293 K, " " T_(2) = 273 K`
`V_(1) = 50 mL. " " V_(2) = ?`
`P_(1) = 750 - 100 = 650 mm Hg, P_(2) = 760 mm Hg`
`(P_(1)V_(1))/(T_(1)) = (P_(2)V_(2))/(T_(2))`
`V_(2) = (P_(1) V_(1)T_(2))/(T_(1)P_(2)) = (50 xx 650 xx 273)/(293 xx 760)`
`= 39.8 mL`

In a constant volume gas thermometer, the pressure of the working gas is measured by the difference in the levels of mercury in the two arms of a U-tube connected to the gas at one end. When the bulb is placed at the room temperature 27.0^0 C , the mercury column in the arm open to atmosphere stands 5.00 cm above the level of mercury in the other arm. When the bulb is placed in a hot liquid, the difference of mercury levels becomes 45.0 cm . Calculate the temperature of the liquid. (Atmospheric pressure = 75.0cm of mercury).
