Find $[VD]_{mix}$ of a gaseous mixture of $O_3$ and $O_2$ . Molar ratio of $O_3$ to $O_2$ is 1:2

$\frac{56}{6}$

$\frac{112}{3}$

$\frac{224}{3}$

$\frac{56}{3}$

Answer

$\frac{56}{3}$

Explanation

The average molar mass of the mixture is calculated as follows:

$M_{mix} = \frac{1}{3}(48) + \frac{2}{3}(32) = \frac{48 + 64}{3} = \frac{112}{3} \text{ g/mol}$

Vapour density is half of the molar mass:

$[VD]_{mix} = \frac{M_{mix}}{2} = \frac{112/3}{2} = \frac{112}{6} = \frac{56}{3}$
