Question

When 2 g of gas A is introduced into an evacuated flask kept at 25oC, the pressure was found to be 1 atmosphere. If 3 g of another gas B is then added to the same flask, the pressure becomes 1.5 atm. Assuming ideal behaviour, the ratio of molecular weights (MB:MA) is :

Solution

The correct option is C 3:1
MolesPressure

For A, 2MwA1 atm ..........(i)

Pressure of B=1.51=0.5atm

For B, 3MwB0.5 atm ........(ii)

3MwB×MwA2=0.51


MwAMwB=0.5×23=13

MwB:MwA=3:1

Therefore, the option is B.
