When air which contains the gases Oxygen, nitrogen, carbondioxide, water vapour and the rare gases, is passed through alkaline pyrogallol and then over quicklime, the only gases left are;
nitrogen and carbondioxide
the rare gases
nitrogen and oxygen
nitrogen and the rare gases
Correct answer is D
The quick-lime is a drying agent that can dry most gases except ammonia. Hence it removes the water vapour. Quick-lime which is calcium oxide reacts with the carbon dioxide forming calcium carbonate. Hence carbon dioxide and monoxide is eliminated leaving nitrogen, and the rare gases
