8g of CH\(_4\) occupies 11.2 at S.T.P. What volume would 22g of CH\(_3\)CH\(_2\)CH\(_3\) occupy under the same condition?

A

3.7dm\(^3\)

B

11.2dm\(^3\)

C

22.4dm\(^3\)

D

33dm\(^3\)

correct option: b

Molar mass of methane, CH4 = 16g/mol

At standard conditions, S.T.P., 8g CH4 occupies 11.2

Hence, 16g occupies 22.4 dm\(^3\)

Molar mass of propane = 44g/mol\(^-1\) occupies 22.4dm\(^3\) at S.T.P

Hence,

22g will occupy 11.2dm\(^3\)
