A container consists mixture of four gases as \(5 \mathrm{~g~} \mathrm{H}_2, 8 \mathrm{~g~} \mathrm{He}, 50 \mathrm{~g~} \mathrm{CO}_2\) and 20 g Ne at a certain temperature. Which of the following gases exerts minimum partial pressure?
\(\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|} \hline \mathrm{X}=x & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\ \hline \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{X}=x) & 0.1 & 0.2 & 0.3 & 0.4 \\ \hline \end{array}\)

  1. A \(\mathrm{H}_2\)
  2. B He
  3. C \(\mathrm{CO}_2\)
  4. D Ne
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Ne

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(n_{\mathrm{H}_2} = \frac{5 \mathrm{~g~}}{2 \mathrm{~g/mol~}} = 2.5 \mathrm{~mol~}\) \(n_{\mathrm{He}} = \frac{8 \mathrm{~g~}}{4 \mathrm{~g/mol~}} = 2 \mathrm{~mol~}\)
