1 g-atom of Ca was burnt in excess of oxygen and the oxidewas dissolved in water to make up a one - liter solution. Calculate the normality of thealkaline solution.

Answer»

Solution : FirstMethod
`Ca + O_(2) CO overset(H_(2))to Ca (OH)_(2)`
Ca atoms are CONSERVED `:.`applying POACfor Ca atoms,
molesof Ca ATOMSIN reactant = moles of Ca in Ca `(OH)_(2)`
`1 = 1 xx ` moles of `Ca(OH)_(2)`
(`:.` MOLE of `Ca(OH)_(2)` contains1 mole of Ca)
`:.`moles of `CaO=(OH)_(2)= 1 `
Sincethe solutionis madeup to 1 liter ,
molarityof `Ca(OH)_(20`= 1 M
andnormalityof `Ca(OH)_(2) = 2 N`
