Solution

The correct option is B 2N
From ideal gas equation, PV=nRT.
Oxygen, V=1L,P=750mm Hg
Sulphur dioxide, V=2L,P=750mm Hg
Moles of O2PVRT=n1=1×1RT
Number of molecules =N=NaRT(i)
Similarly for SO2,
Moles of SO2=PVRT=n2=1×2RT
Let number of molecules =M=2NaRT(2)
By dividing both eq.1 and eq.2 we get, MN=2M=2N
