112 ml of a gas is produced at STP by the action of 0.412 gm of ROH alcohol with CH3Mgl. Molecular mass of alcohol is:

Correct answer: C. 80 g

  • A. 32 g
  • B. 41.2 g
  • C. 80 g
  • D. 156 g

Explanation

Following is the solution to this question:To find the molecular mass of the alcohol, we can use the formula:Molecular mass = (Mass of alcohol) x (Molar volume of gas at STP) / (Volume of gas produced)Rearranging the formula to solve for molecular mass, we get:Molecular mass = (0.412 g) x (22.4 L) / (0.112 L)Molecular mass = 80 g/molSo, the molecular mass of the alcohol is 80 g/mol.
