Question

Gaseous Benzene reacts with hydrogen gas in presence of a Nickel catalyst to form gaseous cyclohexane according to the Reaction
C6H6+3H2C6H12
A mixture of C6H6 and excess H2 has a pressure of 60mm of Hg in an unknown volume. After the gas had been passed over a Ni catalyst and all the benzene converted to cyclohexane, the pressure of the gas was 30mm of Hg in the same volume at the same temperature. The fraction of C6H6 (by volume) present in the original volume is

Solution

The correct option is D

1/6


Let initial pressure of C6H6=P1mm. And that of H2=P2mm.
P1+P2=60mm.(1)
After the Reaction, pressure of C6H6=0
(As all has reacted)
Pressure of H2=P23P1
Pressure of C6H16=P1
