Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The units of water formed by adding
Concept introduction:
Gay Lussac’s Law explains that when a reaction takes place, all the reactants react in definite volumes and produces the products in definite volume also.
Answer to Problem 84A
Units of water formed is
Not all the particles of both elements react.
Half of the Oxygen will remain.
Explanation of Solution
As per the balanced chemical equation:
Two moles of hydrogen reacts with one mole of oxygen to form two moles of water.
If we add
Only
The limiting reagent is Oxygen.
When gases react they do so in definite volume as per Gay Lussac’s Law. So here also the number of particles of hydrogen should be double to the number of particles of oxygen.
