Solution

The correct option is A 28.3
Let x be the mass of Ne and y be the mass of Ar
x+y=30 ------- (1)
Molar mass of Ar=40g
Molar mass of Ne=20g
Moles of Neon +moles of Argon = Total moles
x20+y40=n
Total K.E.=32nRT
Given,
K.E.=3KJ,T=250K,R=8.314JK1mol1
3000J=32(x20+y40)×8.314×250
2x+y=38.48 ------ (2)
From (1) and (2)
y=21.52g
mass % of Neon =massofneontotalmass×100
=8.4830×100=28.3%
