A gaseous mixture containing He, CH₄ and SO₂ was allowed to effuse through a fine hole then find what molar ratio of gases coming out initially? (Given mixture contains He, CH₄ and SO₂ in 1 : 2: 3 mole ratio).

• $\sqrt{2}:\sqrt{2}: 3$

NH₄Cl (s) is heated in a test tube. Vapours are brought in contact with red litmus paper, which changes it to blue and then to red. It is because of

• formation of NH₄OH and HCl

• formation of NH₃ and HCl

• greater diffusion of NH₃ than HCl

• greater diffusion of HCl than NH₃

• Volume will become greater by a factor of 1.1

• Volume will become smaller by a factor of 0.70

• Volume will become greater by a factor of 2.9

Two glass bulbs A and B are connected by a very small tube having a stop-cock. Bulb A has a volume of 100 cm³ and contained the gas while bulb B was empty. On opening stop-clock, the pressure fell down to 40%. The volume of the bulb B must be

• 75 cm³

• 125 cm³

• 150 cm³

• 250 cm³

The CO₂ gas does not follow gaseous laws at all ranges of pressure and temperature because

• it is triatomic gas

• its internal energy is quite high

• there is attraction between its molecules

• it solidify at low temperature
