The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

$Mg\left(HCO_{3}\right)_{2} \to MgO + 2CO_{2} + H_{2}O$ $146 \,g$ give $22.4$ Litre of $CO_{2}$ $\Rightarrow 7.3 \,g$ will give $= \frac{22.4}{146}\times7.3$ $\Rightarrow = 1.12$ litre of $CO_{2}$ $= 1120\, ml$ of $CO_{2}$

Gas Laws

The gas laws were developed at the end of the 18th century, when scientists began to realize that relationships between pressure, volume and temperature of a sample of gas could be obtained which would hold to approximation for all gases.

The five gas laws are:

  • Boyle’s Law, which provides a relationship between the pressure and the volume of a gas.
  • Charles’s Law, which provides a relationship between the volume occupied by a gas and the absolute temperature.
  • Gay-Lussac’s Law, which provides a relationship between the pressure exerted by a gas on the walls of its container and the absolute temperature associated with the gas.
  • Avogadro’s Law, which provides a relationship between the volume occupied by a gas and the amount of gaseous substance.
  • The Combined Gas Law (or the Ideal Gas Law), which can be obtained by combining the four laws listed above.
