NEET Chemistry Mole Concept MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 11
Imagine a diagram showing a chemical reaction where methane reacts with dioxygen to form carbon dioxide and water. How would you label the stoichiometric coefficients for the reactants and products in this balanced equation?
A
1 for CH4, 2 for O2, 1 for CO2, and 2 for H2O
B
2 for CH4, 1 for O2, 2 for CO2, and 1 for H2O
C
1 for CH4, 1 for O2, 2 for CO2, and 2 for H2O
D
2 for CH4, 2 for O2, 1 for CO2, and 1 for H2O
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
In the balanced equation CH4 (g) + 2O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (g), the stoichiometric coefficients are 1 for CH4, 2 for O2, 1 for CO2, and 2 for H2O. These represent the number of molecules or moles involved.
