Question

One mole of a mixture of $N_{2}, N O_{2}$ and $N_{2} O_{4}$ has a mean molar mass of $55.4.$ On heating to a temperature at which $N_{2} O_{4}$ is completely dissociated: $N_{2} O_{4} \to 2 N O_{2}$ , the mean molar mass tends to a lower value of $39.57$ . What is the mole ratio of $N_{2} : N O_{2} : N_{2} O_{4}$ in the original mixture?

Solution

The correct option is B 0.5 : 0.1 : 0.4
Let
$n_{N_{2}} = x$
$n_{N O_{2}} = y$
$n_{N_{2} O_{4}} = z$
Total moles $= 1$
$x + y + z = 1 (i)$
mean molar mass before the reaction:
$\frac{28 x + 46 y + 92 z}{x + y + z} = 55.4 (i i)$
Once the reaction happens, all the `z` moles of `N_2O_4` get converted into `2y` moles of `NO_2`
mean molar mass after the reaction:
$\frac{28 x + 46 (y + 2 z)}{x + y + 2 z} = 39.57 (i i i)$
Using `(ii)` and `(iii)`, we get `z=0.4`
Also, we get
$x = 0.5$
$y = 0.1$
