A container contains \(4 \mathrm{~g}\) \(\mathrm{H}_2, 4 \mathrm{~g}\) \(\mathrm{He}\) and certain amount of ' Ne ' at a certain temperature. What is the mass of 'Ne' required so that the partial pressure exerted by ' Ne ' is equal to the partial pressure of He ?

  1. A 4 g
  2. B 8 g
  3. C 10 g
  4. D 20 g
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 20 g

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(n_{\mathrm{He}} = \frac{4 \mathrm{~g}}{4 \mathrm{~g/mol}} = 1 \mathrm{~mol}\) If \(P_{\mathrm{Ne}} = P_{\mathrm{He}}\), then \(n_{\mathrm{Ne}} = n_{\mathrm{He}} = 1 \mathrm{~mol}\)
