Calculation the normality of 30 volume solution of hydrogen peroxide

Answer»

SOLUTION :Calculation of MASS of `H_(2)O_(2)` per litre of the solution The decomposition of `H_(2)O_(2)` takes PLACE as follows:
`2H_(2)O_(2)to 2H_(2)O+O_(2) `
`{:(2(2xx1+2xx16),22400ml),(=68g,"at N.T.P):}`
From the equation
22400mL of `O_(2)` at N.T.P are obtained from `H_(2)O_(2)` from `H_(2)O_(2)` =68g
30ML of `O_(2)` at N.T.P are obtained from `H_(2)O_(2)=(68)/(22400)xx30=0.091g`
Now, by defination
1mL of hydrogen peroxide solution weights =0.091g
1000ML of hydrogen perooxide solution will weigh=`0.091xx1000=91.0g`
The strength of the solution=91//g
STEP-II
Calculation of equivalent mass of `H_(2)O_(2)`
Consider the equation:
`underset("68 parts by mass")(2H_(2)O_(2))to 2H_(2)O+underset("32 parts by mass")(O_(2)) `
Now, 32 parts by mass of `O_(2)` are envolved from `H_(2)O_(2)` =68parts
8 parts by mass of `O_(2)` are evolved from `H_(2)O_(2)` `=(68)/(32)xx8=17` parts
Thus equivalent mass of `H_(2)O_(2)`=17 or 17g/equiv
STEP-III
Calculation of normality of the solution
`"Normality of solution"=("Strength of solution")/("Equivalent mass")=(91g//L)/(17g//"equiv")=5.35"equiv"L^(-1)=5.35N.`

Calculate the work done by the torque.

Answer»

Solution :(i)The essential condition of expansion or compression of a system is there should be difference between external pressure `(P_"ext")` and internal pressure `(P_"int")`
(ii)If the volume of the system is increased against the external pressure, the WORK is done by the system. By convention work done by the system is given a negative sign (-W).
(iii) If the volume of the system decreased, the work is done on the system. By convention work done on the system is given positive sign (+W).
(iv) For understanding pressure-volume work, let us CONSIDER a cylinder which contains one MOLE of an ideal GAS fitted with a frictionless piston. Total volume of the gas is V and pressure of the gas inside is `P _"int"`.
(v)If external pressure is `P_"ext"`which is greater than `P_"int"` Piston is moved i want till the pressure inside becomes equal to `P_"ext"`.It is achieved in a single stepand the finalvolume be `V_f`.
(vi)During this compression, piston moves a distance (x) and is cross-sectional area of the piston is A, then,
Change in volume = `xA =DeltaV =V_f -V_i` ...(1)
`P_"ext"="Force(F)"/"Area (A)"`....(2)
`therefore F=P_"ext" A`
(vii) If work is done by the system by pushing out the piston against external pressure `(P_"ext")`, then according to the equation,
-w=F. x ...(3)
-w=`P_"ext".A . x`...(4)
-w=`P_"ext".DeltaV`...(5)
`-w=P_"ext" (V_f-V_i)` ....(6)
Simply `w=-P DeltaV`...(7)
(viii)From the above equation, we can predict the sign of work (w).
(ix) During expansion,work is done bythe system, since `V_f > V_i` , the sign obtained for workwill be negative.
(x)During compression, work is done on the system, since `V_f ltV_i` , the sign obtained for work will be positive.

Calculate the work involved in expansion and compression process.

Answer»

Solution :Work involved in expansion :
(i) For understanding pressure- volume work, let us consider a cylinder which contains 'n' moles of an IDEAL gas fitted with a frictionless piston of cross sectional area A. The total volume of the gas inside is `V_(i)` and pressure of the gas inside is `P_("int")`.
(ii) If the external pressure `P_("EXT")` is greater than `P_("int")`, the piston moves inward till the pressure inside becomes equal to `P_("ext")` . Let this change be achieved in a single step and the final volume of `V_(f)`
(iii) In this case, the work is done on the system (+w) . It can be calculated as follows
`w=-F.Deltax""...(1)`
(iv) where dx is the distance moved by the piston during the compression and F is the force acting on the gas.
`F=P_("ext")A""...(2)`
Substituting (2) in (1)
`w=-P_("ext").A.Deltax`
`A.Deltax= " change volume "=V_(f)-V_(i)`
`w=-P_("ext").(V_(f)-V_(i))""...(3)`
`w=-P_("ext").(-DeltaV)""...(4)`
`=P_("ext").DeltaV`

(vi) Since work is done on the system , it is a positive quantity.
(vi) If the pressure is not constant , but CHANGES during the process such that the pressure of the gas , then , at each stage of compression , the volume decreases by an infinitesimal amount, dV. In such a case we can calculate the work done on the gas by the relation.
`W_("rew")int_(V_(i))^(V_(f))P_("int")dV`
(vii) In a compression process, `P_("ext")` the external pressure is always greater than the pressure of the system .
i.e. `P_("ext")=(P_("int"+dP))`.
(viii) In a expansion process, theexternal pressure is always less than the pressure of the system .
i.e. `P_("ext")=(P_("int"-dP))`.

(ix) When pressure is not constant and changes in infinitesimally small steps (reversible condition) during compression from ... The P-V plot looks like in image work done on the gas is respected by the shaded area.
(x) `P_("ext")=(P_("int")+dP)` Such processes are called reversible processes. For a compression process work can related to internal pressure of the system under reversible conditions by writing equation
`W_("rev")=int_(V_(i))^(v_(f)) =P_("int")dV`
For the the system with ideal gas
`P_("int")V=nRT`
`P_("int")=(nRT)/(V)`
`W_("rev")=int_(V_(i))^(V^(f))(nRT)/(V)dV` `W_("rev")=-nRTint_(V_(i))^(V^(f))((dV)/V)`
`W_("rev")=-nRTIn((V_(f))/(V_(i)))`
`W_("rev")=-2.303nRTlog((V_(f))/(V_(i)))`
(xi) If `V_(f)gtV_(i)` (expansion) ,the sign of work done by the process is negative
(XII) If `V_(f)ltV_(i)` (compression) the sign of work done on the process is positive.

Answer»

Solution :Let us first CONVERT the required volume of oxygen (10.0 L) at S.T.P.
`P_1 = 750 " torr " = 750 mm Hg. ""V_1 = 10.0 L`,
`T_1 = 25 + 273 = 298 K`
and `P_2 = 760 mm Hg " (1 ATM)," ""V_2` = ?,
`T_2 = 0^@C = 273 K`
According to the gas equation,
`(P_1 V_1)/T_1 = (P_2 V_2)/T_2`
`:.V_2 = (P_1 V_1 T_2)/(T_1 P_2)=(750 xx 10.0 xx 273)/(298 xx 760)=9.04 L`
Hence, the required volume of `O_2` at S.T.P. = 9.04 L The equation involved is
`2KCIO_3 to2KCI + 3O_2`
`2xx(39+ 35.5+48) "" 3xx22.4L`
=`245 g ""S.T.P`.
`:. 3 xx 22.4 L " of " O_2 " is produced by the decomposition of " KClO_3 = 245 g`
`:.9.04 L " of " O_2`will be produced by the

This equation implies that 86.9 g of `MnO_2`will give 22.4 of CHLORINE at S.T.P.
Since the given conditions are different from those at S.T.P., therefore we should first convert the given volume corresponding to S.T.P. Therefore,
`P_1 = 1.50 " atm, " V_1 = 1.50 L, T_1 = 27 + 273 = 300 K`
`P_2 = 1 " atm,"V_2 = ?"" T_2 = 273 K` (S.T.P.)
According to the gas equation,
`(P_1 V_1)/T_1 = (P_2 V_2)/T_2`
or`V_2 = (P_1 V_1 T_2)/(T_1 P_2)= ( 1.50 x× 1.50 xx273)/(300xx1)=2.05L`
Thus, 1.5 L of `Cl_2` in the given conditions is equivalent to 2.05 L at S.T.P.
`:."" 22.4 " L of chlorine at S.T.P. is given by " MnO_2 = 86.9` g
`:.2.05 " L of chlorine at S.T.P. will be given by "MnO_2= (86.89)/(22.4)xx 2.05 = 7.95` g

Calculate the wavelength of the spectral line obtained in the spectrumof Li^(2+) ion when the transition takes place between two levels whose sum is 4 and the difference is 2

Answer»

Solution :Suppose the transition takes place between LEVELS `n_(1) and n_(2)`
Then `n_(1) + n_(2) = 4 and n_(2) - n_(1) = 2`
SOLVING these equations, we get `n_(1) = 1, n_(2) = 3 :. (1)/(lamda) = R ((1)/(n_(1)^(2)) - (1)/(n_(2)^(2))) Z^(2)`
For `LI^(2+) , Z = 3 :. (1)/(lamda) = 109, 677 cm^(-1) ((1)/(1^(2)) - (1)/(3^(2))) xx 3^(2) = 109, 677 xx ((1)/(1) - (1)/(9)) xx 9 cm^(-1) = 109677 xx 8 cm^(-1)`
