Question

The composition of the equilibrium mixture (Cl22Cl) which is attained at 1200C is determined by measuring the rate of effusion through a pin hole. It is observed that the given mixture effuses 1.5 times as fast as an unknown gas 'X' effuses under the same conditions. Calculate the fraction of chlorine molecules dissociated into atoms.[Molecular Mass of unknown gas=90]

Solution

The correct option is A 0.56
Rate1Rate2=M2M1
M1,M2 molar masses of gases
1.5=90M1
M1=40
Fraction of dissociation=4070.9060
=0.564
Molar mass of Cl2=70.9060
