Solution

The correct option is A 50%
Solution:- (A) 50%
Let the total moles of the mixture be 100.
Let x be the no. of moles of NO2 present in the mixture.
Therefore,
No. of moles of N2O4 present in the mixture =(100x)
Molecular mas of NO2=46g
Molecular mass of N2O4=92g
Total mass of mixture =x×46+(100x)×92100=920046x100.....(1)
Vapour density of mixture =34.5(Given)
Molecular mass of mixture =2× Vapour density =2×34.5=69g.....(2)
From eqn(1)&(2), we have
920046x100=69
x=9200690046=50
Hence the no. of moles of NO2 present in the mixture is 50.
Therefore,
Percentage abundance of NO2 in the mixture =No. of moles of NO2 in the mixtureTotal no. of moles in the mixture×100=50100×100=50%
Hence the percentage abundance of NO2 in the mixture is 50%.
