On carrying out the electrolysis of acidified water, the volume of hydrogen liberated at `STP` condition is `22.4L`. The volume of oxygen liberated is

A

`22.4L`

B

`44.8L`

C

`11.2L`

D

`2.24L`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
`1F=1Eq` of `H_(2)=11.2L`
`2f=22.4L`
`1F=1Eq of O_(2)=5.6L`
`2F=11.2L`
