Solution

The correct option is A 0.0355 g
The ideal gas equation is:

PV=nRT

When V and T are the same,

Pn

Thus, when the number of moles, i.e., n is least, it will exert the least pressure.

(a) n=wtmol.wt=0.035535.5=1×103mol

(b) n=0.07135.5=2×103mol

(c) n=number of moleculesNA

=6.023×10216.023×1023=0.01 mol

(d) n=0.02 mol

Thus, 0.0355 g chlorine will exert the least pressure.
