उत्तर

This experiment supports Gay Lussac’s law of combining volumes.

According to Gay lussac’s law, the volumes of gases reacting should be in a simple ratio.

\[\ce{CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O}\]

1V         2V            1V        0V

24 cc     48 cc        24 cc

1 vol. of CH4 requires O2 = 2 vols.

∴ 24 cc of CH4 requires O2 = 2 × 24 = 48 cc

Similarly, 24 cc of CH4 produce CO2 = 24 cc

∴ Vol. of O2 unused = 106 − 48 = 58cc

∴ Vol. of mixture on cooling = unused oxygen + CO2 formed

= 58 + 24 

= 82 cc
