Chapter 9, Problem 115QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The volume of hydrogen required to react with $12\text{ L}$ of oxygen is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Avogadro’s law gives a relation between the volume of a gas $\left(V\right)$ and the number of moles $\left(n\right)$ present in the gas at constant temperature and pressure.

The volume of gas is directly proportional to the number of moles present in the gas when temperature and pressure are fixed.

$\begin{array}{l}V\propto n\\ \frac{V_1}{n_1}=\frac{V_2}{n_2}\end{array}$
