An aqueous solution turns red litmus solution blue. Excess addition of which of the following solution would reverse the change?

Answer»

BAKING powder
Lime
Ammonium hydroxide solution
Hydrochloric acid

Solution :Since, the aqueous solution turns red litmus solution BLUE. So it is a basic compound. An acid solution (HCI) WOULD reverse the change. That is HCI would turn blue litmus solution to red.
Other options baking powder, lime and ammonium hydroxide solution are basic compounds.So the blue litmus solution would not change the colour by adding these compounds.

An aqueous solution of ferrous sulphate is taken and subjected to electrolysis. Calculate the number of electrons flowing through the circuit when 0,7 g of iron is deposited at cathode (atomic mass of Fe = 56)

Answer»

Solution :EQUIVALENT mass of IROM `= (56)/(2) = 28`
`(FE^(+2) + 2e^(-) rarr Fe)`
1 faraday of electricity is required to deposit 28 g of iron.
1 faraday charge is required to deposit `6.023 xx 10^(23)` ELECTRONS.
`:.` 28 g of Fe required to deposit `6.023 xx 10^(23)` electrons.
0.7 g of Fe required to deposit
`= (6.023 xx 10^(23) xx 0.7)/(28) = 1.5 xx 10^(23)` electrons

An aqueous solution of copper sulphate is subjected to electrolysis using platinum electrodes. Calculate the number of electrons flowing through the circuit when 0.3175 g of copper is deposited. Also calculate the number of molecules present in anodic product (atomic mass of copper = 63.5)

Answer»

Solution :`CuSO_(4) + Cu^(2+) + So_(4)^(-2)`
`H_(2)O rarr H^(+) + OH^(-)`
Among the cations `Cu^(+2) and H^(+), Cu^(+2)` requires lesser discharge potential compared to `H^(+)` so Cu is discharged at cathode.
At cathode : `Cu^(+2) + 2e^(-) rarr Cu`
For the deposition of 63.5 g of Cu, `2 XX 6.023 xx 10^(23) e^(-)` have to flow through the circuit, THEREFORE, 0.3175 g of Cu requires ? electrons
`= (0.3175 xx 2 xx 6.023 xx 10^(23))/(63.5)`
`= 6.023 xx 10^(21)` electrons are required
AT ANODE : `4OH^(-) rarr 2H_(2)O + 4e^(-) + O_(2)`
For the formation of 1 mole of oxygen 4 moles of electrons are required
`96,500 C = (N)/(4)` moles of oxygen
`= (6.023 xx 10^(23))/(4)` molecule
(`6 xx 10^(21)` electrons = 965 C)
No. of molecules of oxygen liberated for 965 C
`= (965 xx 6.023 xx 10^(23))/(4 xx 96,500) = 1.5 xx 10^(21)` molecules

An absent-mined prodessie, Mr Waage, took elements A and B in areaction vessel at room temperature, to study the reactionA+ 2B rArr 2C +D. He took the concentration of B as 1.5 times the concentration of A. After the reaction reached equilbrium, he round that the concentrations of A and D were equal. However, he forgot to calculate K_(c) and removed oneof the products from the mixture. Now, can you calculate K_(c) for the equilibrium attained in his experiment and help him out ?

Answer»

Solution :`A + 2B hArr2C +D`
Initialconcentrationa 1.5a 0 0
EQUILIBRIUM concentrationa-x 1.5a-2x 2x x
At equilibrium, the concentration of A and that of D are equal
`therefore a-x = x IMPLIES a=2x ` or ` x=a//2`
`K_(c)=((2x)^(2)x)/((a-x)(15a-2x)^(2))` as a=2x
`implies (4x^(2).x)/(x xx (x)^(2))implies K_(c) = 4`
