Solution

The correct option is A 8L
$C_{3} H_{8} + 5 O_{8} \to 3 C O_{2} + 4 H_{2} O$

1 Vol 5 Vol

$\begin{matrix} 10 litres & 50 litres P_{1} = 250 m m & P_{2} = 760 m m V_{1} = 50 litres & V_{2} = ? T_{1} = 546 K & T_{2} = 273 k \end{matrix}$

$\frac{P_{1} V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2} V_{2}}{T_{2}} \frac{250 \times 50}{546} = \frac{760 \times V_{2}}{273} \frac{250 \times 50}{546} = \frac{273}{760} = V_{2}$

$\frac{250 \times 50 \times 273}{546 \times 760} = V_{2} \frac{250 \times 50}{2 \times 760} = V_{2} 8 l = V_{2}$
