24 cc Marsh gas (CH4) was mixed with 106 cc oxygen and then exploded. On cooling the volume of the mixture became 82 cc, of which, 58 cc was unchanged oxygen. Which law does this experiment support? Explain with calculations.

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
