Question

The pressure of a gas was found to decrease from 720 to 480 mm when 5 g of sample of activated charcoal was kept in a flask of one litre capacity maintained at 27 C. If the density of charcoal is 1.25 g/mL, the volume of the gas adsorbed per gram of charcoal at 480 mm Hg is:

Solution

The correct option is C 100.08 mL
We know that, at constant temperature,
V2=P1V1P2=720×1000480=1500 mL
Volume of gas in the flask
=100051.25=996 mL
Total volume of gas adsorbed by charcoal,
=1500996=504 mL
Volume of gas adsorbed per gram of charcoal =5045=100.08 mL
