CUET · CHEMISTRY · PYQ PAPER 2024

Arrange the following in decreasing order of the number of molecules contained in:
(A) \(1 6 ~ g\) of \(O _2\)
(B) \(1 6 ~ g\) of \(CO _2\)
(C) \(1 6 ~ g\) of \(CO ^{-}\)
(D) \(16 g of H _2\)
Choose the correct order:

  1. A \((A), (B), (C), (D)\)
  2. B \((D), (C), (A), (B)\)
  3. C \((B), (A), (D), (C)\)
  4. D \((C), (B), (D), (A)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \((D), (C), (A), (B)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Molar mass of \(O_2 = 2 \times 16 = 32 \text{ g/mol}\) Molar mass of \(CO_2 = 12 + 2 \times 16 = 44 \text{ g/mol}\) Molar mass of \(CO = 12 + 16 = 28 \text{ g/mol}\) Molar mass of \(H_2 = 2 \times 1 = 2 \text{ g/mol}\) Number of molecules \(\propto \frac{1}{\text{Molar mass}}\)…
