Detailed Solution

2CO+O22CO2 . The residual gas is CO.

Volume of CO oxidised = 2 × 30 = 60mL;
Volume of CO = 60 + 10 = 70 mL
hence the volume of CO remains
unreacted = 70 - 60 = 10 mL

Volume of CO2, initially present in the mixture = 100 - 70 = 30mL
Volume of CO2, formed = 60 mL; Volume of CO2
absorbed by KOH = 30 + 60 = 90 mL
As per reaction O2 is completely consumed.
