Solution

The correct option is B 1.12 litre
Volume of 1 mole of CO2 at STP = 22.4 litre
Volume of CO2 obtained after complete decomposition of 9.85gm of BaCO3 is:

BaCO3BaO+CO2
No of moles of BaCO3 obtained = 9.85197 = 0.05 mole

As 1 mole of BaCO3 gives 1 mole of CO2,

Therefore, number of moles of CO2 obtained = 0.05 mole

Volume of CO2 obtained at STP =22.4×0.05=1.12 litre

Hence, option B is correct.
