At STP, if 5.6 litres of a gas weights \(7.5 \mathrm{~g}\), then identify the gas.

  1. A \(\mathrm{CO}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{NO}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{NO}_2\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{CO}_2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\mathrm{NO}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

One mole of gas at STP occupies \(22.4 \mathrm{~L}\). Thus, 5.6 L of gas at STP contains 0.25 moles. Number of moles \(=\) weight in gram \(/\) molecular weight \(\begin{aligned} 0.25 & =7.5 / M \\ M & =30 \end{aligned}\) Thus, the gas is NO. Hence, the correct option is (b).
