A bottle is labelled `122.5%` oleum. `22.7 mL` of `Ca(OH)_(2)` is unknown molarity are used to completely neutralise `1 g` oleum. Find the normality of `Ca(OH)_(2)`.

Answer» Correct Answer - 2
`(100+22.5)%` oleum means `222.5 g H_(2)SO_(4)`
`H_(2)O+SO_(3)rarrH_(2)SO_(4)`
`because 18 gH_(2)O "gives" =98g H_(2)SO_(4)`
`therefore 22.5 g H_(2)O"gives" =(98xx22.5)/(18)=122.5gH_(2)SO_(4)`
`therefore` Total `H_(2)SO_(4)=100+122.5=222.5g`
1 g oleum equiv `2.225gH_(2)SO_(4)=(2.225)/(49)xx1000`
`45.41 meq.`
`therefore "Meq.of" H_(2)SO_(4)=45.41`
`therefore22.7xxN=45.41`
`N=2`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`"Meq.of"NaOH+Meq.of Ba(OH)_(2)=Meq.of HCl`
`XV_(1)+YV_(2)=100xx0.1=10`
`4Yxx(V_(2))/(4)+YV_(2)=10`
`2YV_(2)=10`
`:. V_(2)Y=5`
`:. V_(1)X=5`
`:.` Fraction of acid by `Ba(OH)_(2)`
`=(5)/(10)=0.5`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`"Meq.of" NaOH=100xx0.5=50`
`Meq."of"HCl=(1)/(5)xx100=20`
`Meq."of"H_(2)SO_(4)=(1)/(10)xx100=10`
Total Meq. of acid`=20+10=30`
Total.Meq. of `NaOH=50`
Meq. of `NaOH"left"=50-30=20`
Thus resulting solution will be alkaline.

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Mass of solute =`120 g`
Molecular mass of solute `=60 u`
Mass of solvent `=1000 g`
Density of solution `=1.15 g//mL`
Total mass of solution `=1000+120=1120 g`
`"Volume of solution"=("Mass")/("Density")=(1120)/(1.15)mL`
`"Molarity"=(("Mass of solute")/("Molecular mass of solute"))/("Volume of solution")xx1000`
`=(120//60)/(1120//1.15)xx1000`
`=(2xx1000xx1.15)/(1120)=2.05 M`

The domestic water supply is treated by bleaching powder to remove unhygienic species in water and to make it safe for drinking water. However, this given rise to `Ca^(2+)` and `Cl^(-)` ion contamination in water. Both these ions are also injurious for health if a minimum concentration is crossed. The chloride ions are tested by a kit provided by many companies having `AgNO_(3)` solution that is added drop by drop to `23 mL` of water sample to which an indicator has been added. When sufficient silver nitrate is added to remove `Cl^(-1)` ions as `AgCl` solid, the solid turns orange. The colour change is noticed by addition of `AgNO_(3)` having molar concentration such that each drop `(0.05 mL)` of `AgNO_(3)` converts `12.5 mg` of `Cl^(-)` ions `AgCl`. The molar concentration of `Cl^(-)` in the sample of water used is:A. `3.225xx10^(-3)M`B. `2.225 M`C. `1.521 M`D. `0.1837 M`

The colour change is noticed by addition of `AgNO_(3)` having molar concentration such that each drop `(0.05 mL)` of `AgNO_(3)` converts `12.5 mg` of `Cl^(-)` ions `AgCl`. If `12` drops of `AgNO_(3)` solution are used to reach the colour point, what mass of chloride ion is present in one litre sample?A. `6.52 g`B. `7.150 g`C. `5.125 g`D. `1.25g`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`1` drop `AgNO_(3)= 12.5xx10^(-3)g Cl^(-)`
`therefore 12 "drop" AgNO_(3)=12.5xx10^(-3)xx12 "mole" Cl^(-)`
`=150xx10^(-3)g Cl^(-1)`
Also, `23 mL` sample `=0.15 gCl^(-1)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
`1 "drop" AgNO_(3)= 0.05 mL AgNO_(3)`
`therefore 12 "drop" AgNO_(3)=0.05xx12 mL AgNO_(3)`
`= 0.60 mL AgNO_(3)`
`mM "of" AgNO_(3)` in `12 "drop" = mM "of" Cl^(-)` in `23 mL` sample
`Mxx0.6=(150xx10^(-3))/(35.5)`
`therefore M=7.04xx10^(-3)`

`1.7 g` of silver nitrate dissolved in `100 g` of water is taken. `0.585 g` of sodium chloride dissolved in `100 g` of water is added to it an chemical reaction occurs. `1.435 g` of silver chloride and `0.85 g` of sodium nitrate are formed. Justify that the data obey law of conservation of mass.

Answer» Total mass before the cemical change
`{:(=mass ofAgNO_(3),+,mass of NaCI,+,"mass of water"),(=1.7,+,0.585,+,200):}`
`=202. 285 g`
Total mass after the chemical reaction
`{:(=mass ofAgCI,+,mass of NaNO_(3),+,"mass of water"),(=1.435,+,0.85,+,200):}`
`=202.285 g`
Thus total mass before reaction = total mass agter reaction. This confirms the law of conservation of mass.

For the dissolution of `1.08 g` of metal, `0.49 g` of `H_(2)SO_(4)` was required. If specific heat of metal is `0.06 cal//g`, what is its atomic mass?

Answer» App. At. Wt. `= (6.4)/(0.06) = 10.6.67`
Let Eq. wt. of metal be `E`.
`(1.08)/(E) = (0.49)/(49)`
`:. E_("metal") = 108`
Also valence `= ("at.wt.")/("Eq. wt.") = (106.67)/(108) = 1` (integer)
`:.` Exact at wt. `= "Eq. wt" xx " valence" = 108 xx 1 = 108`

Determine the equivalent weight of each given below, if formula weight of these compounds are `X,Y` and `Z` respectively: (i) `Na_(2)SO_(4)`, (ii) `Na_(3)PO_(4). 12H_(2)O` (iii) `Ca_(3)(PO_(4))_(2)`

Answer» Equilibrium weight of compound
`= ("Molecular weight")/("Total charge on cartion or anion")`
`E_(Na_(2)SO_(4)) = (x)/(2)` (charge on `2Na` is `+2` or on `SO_(4) is -2)`
`E_(Na_(3)PO_(4).12H_(2)O) = (y)/(3)` , (charge on `PO_(4)` is `-3`)
`E_(Ca_(3)(PO_(4))_(2) = (z)/(6)` , (charge on `2PO_(4)` is `-6`)

Water contaminated with `H_(2)S` can be freed from `H_(2)S` by passing `Cl_(2)` through it. If the `H_(2)S` content in contaminated water is `22` ppm by mass how much `Cl_(2)` is needed to remove all the `H_(2)S` from `2xx10^(2)` gallons of water. `(1 gallon =3.785 litre)`

Answer» `because 10^(6)g` or `mL H_(2)O` contain `22g H_(2)S`
`:. 2xx 10^(2) xx 3.785 xx 10^(3) xx 10^(3) mL`
`= (22 xx 2 xx 10^(2) xx 3.785 xx 10^(3))/(10^(6))`
`= 22 xx 2 xx 3.785 xx 10^(-1)`
`= 16.654gH_(2)S`
`Cl_(2)(g)+H_(2)S(aq).rarr2HCl_(aq)+S(s)`
Eq. of `Cl_(2) =` Eq. of `H_(2)S`
`(w)/(35.5) = (16.654)/(34//2)`
`w = 34.78 g Cl`

Calculate the degree of hardeners of river water whose `100 mL` solution required `1.68 mL` of `0.1 N H_(2)SO_(4)`.

Answer» Meq. Of `H_(2)SO_(4)` used `= 1.68 xx 0.1 = 0.168`
Assuming `CaCO_(3)` in water, Meq. Of `CaCO_(3) = 0.168`
`:.(w)/(50) xx 1000 = 0.168`
`:. w_(CaCO_(3)) = 8.4 xx 10^(-3) g`
`because 100 mL` water `-= 8.4 xx 10^(-3)g CaCO_(3)`
`:. 10^(6) mL` water `-= (8.4 xx 10^(-3) xx 10^(6))/(100)`
`= 8.4 xx 10 = 84`ppm

Calculate the volume of 0.5 M `H_2SO_4` required to dissolve 0.5 g of copper (II) carbonate `(CuCO_3)`.

Answer» Meq.of `H_(2)SO_(4)` Meq. of `CuCO_(3)`
`("Eq. wt. of" CuCO_(3) = (M)/(2))` ltbr. `0.5 xx 2 V = (0.5 xx 2 xx 1000)/(1235)`
`:. V = 8.097 mL`

Calculate the volume of 0.5 M `H_2SO_4` required to dissolve 0.5 g of copper (II) carbonate `(CuCO_3)`.A. `8.10 mL`B. `16.20 mL`C. `4.05 mL`D. `12.05 mL`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`"Meq.of"H_(2)SO_(4)="Meq.of"CuCO_(3)`
`0.5xx2xxV=(0.5xx1000)/(123.5//2)`
`("mol.wt".CuCO_(3)=123.5)`
`:. V=8.1 mL`

Find the weight of `H_(2) SO_(4)` in `1200 mL` of a solution of `0.2 N` strength.A. `11.76 g`B. `12.76 g`C. `13.76 g`D. `23,52 g`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`Meq. of H_(2)SO_(4)=1200xx0.2`
`(w)/(49)xx1000=1200xx0.2`
`:. w_(H_(2)SO_(4))=11.76 g`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`"Normality"=("Volume strength of"H_(2)O_(2))/(5.6)`
`:. N=(10)/(5.6)=1.79`
