Chapter 3, Problem 3.37QP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The balloon which contains greater number of particles of gases from the given pairs is to be identified.

Concept introduction: The mole is unit specially discovered for the atoms or molecules due to extreme small size and large numbers. One mole is defined as the amount of the substance which contains exactly the same number of particles as in $12\text{g}$ of carbon-12 isotope. One mole of anything consists of $N_{\text{A}}$ number of things. This number is known as Avogadro number $\left(N_{\text{A}}\right)$ and is numerically equal to $6.023\times {10}^{23}$.

To determine: The gas which contains the greater number of particles in the given pair of ${\text{CO}}_{\text{2}}\text{and}\text{NO}$ gas present in the balloons.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The gas which contain the greater number of particles in the given pair of ${\text{CO}}_{\text{2}}\text{and}{\text{SO}}_2$ gas present in the balloons.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The gas which contain the greater number of particles in the given pair of ${\text{O}}_{\text{2}}\text{and}\text{Ar}$ gas present in the balloons.
