In combustion of methane,

Carbon exhibits variation from -4 to +4. 

The reaction is as follows :

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O

In CH4,

The oxidation state of carbon is -4 while in CO2, the oxidation state of carbon is +4.

A mixture of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide is found to have a density of 1.7g/lit at S.T.P. The mole fraction of carbon monoxide is

Correct Answer - A `M_("mix")=(dRT)/P_("mix")implies M_("mix")=(1.7xx0.0821xx273)/1=1.7xx22.4` gms `M_("mix")=X_(CO)xxM_(CO)+(1-X_(CO).M_(CO_2)=X_(CO)xx18+(1-X_(CO))xx44 implies X_(CO)=0.37`

Consider the following balanced chemical equation: `2A+4B_(2)+6C_(3)rarrP+2Q` If initially 6.023xx `10^(24)` atoms orf A, 448L of `B_(2)` gas at NTP a

`n_(A)=10` `n_(B)=20` `n_(C)=(960)/(24)=40` `2A+4B_(2)+6C_(3)rarrP+2Q` Limiting reagent `rarrA & B_(2)` so only 3 species will be left in final mixture.
