A mixture of 2.3 g formic acid and 4.5 g oxalic acid is treated with conc. `H_(2)SO_(4)`. The evolved gaseous mixture is passed through KOH pellets. Weight (in g) of the remaining product at STP will beA. `1.4`B. `3.0`C. `2.8`D. `4.4` |
Answer» Correct Answer - C `Hunderset(0.05)(COO)Hoverset(H_(2)SO_(4))(rarr)underset(0.05)(H_(2)O)+underset(0.05)(CO)+underset(0.05)(CO)` `H_(2)underset(0.05)(C_(2))O_(4)overset(H_(2)SO_(4))(rarr)underset(0.05)(H_(2)O)+underset(0.05)(CO)+underset(0.05)(CO_(2))` Total moles of `CO=0.05+0.05=0.10` `KOH` absorbs `CO_(2)(g)` :. Mass of `CO=0.1xx28=2.8 g`. |
