Solution

The correct option is A 8

By unitary method and stoichiometric calculation,

CH4+2O2CO2+2H2O

1 mol of methane 1 mol of carbon dioxide (indicates “gives”)

Hence 16 g of methane 44g of carbon dioxide

So, x (say) grams of methane 22g of carbon dioxide

By unitary method,

x=1644×22=8g of methane

Thus, 8 g of methane is required to produce 22 g of CO2.

Hence, the correct option is A
