Pick the correct statement.
At the temperature of liquefaction of air, the ratio of ortho and para hydrogen is 1:1.
At the room temperature, the ratio of ortho to para hydrogen is 2:1.
At the temperature of liquefaction of air, the ratio of ortho and para hydrogen is 3:1.
At the room temperature, the ratio of ortho to para hydrogen is 1:1
Ordinary dihydrogen is an equilibrium mixture of ortho and para hydrogen.
Ortho hydrogen ⇔ Para hydrogen.
The amount of ortho and para-hydrogen varies with temperature as,
(a) At 0o K, hydrogen contains mainly para-hydrogen which is more stable.
(b) At the temperature of liquefaction of air, the ratio of ortho and para hydrogen is 1:1.
(c) At room temperature, the ratio of ortho to para-hydrogen is 3:1.
