    How much volume of oxygen at STP, in litre is required to burn 4g of methane gas completely?

    A)  11.2            

    B)  5.6

    C)  2.8             

    D)  8

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  1\,mol \\  16\,g \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{4}}}}\,+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  2\,mol \\  2\,\times \,22.4\,L \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{2{{O}_{2}}}}\,\xrightarrow{{}}C{{O}_{2}}+2{{H}_{2}}O\] At STP, \[\because \]For the combustion of \[16\,g\,C{{H}_{4}},\]oxygen Required \[=2\times 22.4\,L\] \[\therefore \]For the combustion of \[4\,g\,C{{H}_{4}},\]oxygen required will be \[=\frac{2\times 22.4\times 4}{16}L\] \[=11.2\,L\]
