Solution

The correct option is A 2.24 litres
2Pb(NO3)22PbO+4NO2+O2
in this reaction 2 mol of lead nitrate gives 4 mol of NO2 and 1 mol of O2
and in this question we are use 13.24331=0.04 mol of lead nitrate
so the question total mol produced NO2 is 0.08 and O2 is 0.02
total mol of gas is produced is 0.08+0.02 =0.1 mol because PbO is solid
so the total volume of gases is 0.1×22.4 liters =2.24 liters

so the answer is D
