Discuss the principle of estimation of halogens, sulphur and phosphorus present in an organic compound. |
Answer» Estimation of halogens Halogens are estimated by the Carius method. In this method, a known quantity of organic compound is heated with fuming nitric acid in the presence of silver nitrate, contained in a hard glass tube called the Carius tube, taken in a furnace. Carbon and hydrogen that are present in the compound are oxidized to form `CO_(2)` and `H_(2)O` respectively and the halogen present in the compound is converted to the form of AgX. This AgX is then filtered, washed, dried, and weighed. Let the mass of organic compound be m g. Mass of AgX formed = `m_(1)` g 1 mol of Agx contains 1 mol of X. Therefore, Mass of halogen in m1 g of AgX =`("Atomic mass of X"xxm_(1)g)/("Molecular mass of AgX")` Thus % of halogen will be =`("Atomic mass of X"xxm_(1)xx100)/("Molecular mass of AgX"xxm)` Estimation of Sulphur In this method, a known quantity of organic compound is heated with either fuming nitric acid or sodium peroxide in a hard glass tube called the Carius tube. Sulphur, present in the compound, is oxidized to form sulphuric acid. On addition of excess of barium chloride to it, the precipitation of barium sulphate takes place. This precipitate is then filtered, washed, dried, and weighed. Let the mass of organic compound be m g. Mass of `BaSO_(4)` formed = `m_(1)` g 1 mol of `BaSO_(4)` = 233 g `BaSO_(4)` = 32 g of Sulphur Therefore, `m_(1)` g of `BaSO_(4)` contains `(32xxm_(1))/233` g of sulphur Thus percentage of sulphur =`(32xxm_(1)xx100)/(233xxm)` Estimation of phosphorus In this method, a known quantity of organic compound is heated with fuming nitric acid. Phosphorus, present in the compound, is oxidized to form phosphoric acid. By adding ammonia and ammonium molybdate to the solution, phosphorus can be precipitated as ammonium phosphomolybdate. Phosphorus can also be estimated by precipitating it as `MgNH_(4)PO_(4)` by adding magnesia mixture, which on ignition yields `Mg_(2)P_(2)O_(7)`. Let the mass of organic compound be m g. Mass of ammonium phosphomolybdate formed = `m_(1)` g Molar mass of ammonium phosphomolybdate = 1877 g Thus percentage of phosphorus=`(31xxm_(1)xx100)/(1877xxm)%` If P is estimated as `Mg_(2)P_(2)O_(7)`, Then, percentage of phosphorus=`(62xxm_(1)xx100)/(222xxm)%` |

0.3160 g of an organic substance was heated with fuming nitric acid in a carius tube to convert phosphorus present into phosphoric acid. Addition of magnesia mixture formed `MgNH_(4)PO_(4)` which upon heating gave `0.1697 g Mg_(2)P_(2)O_(7)`. Calculate the percentage of phosphorus in the compound. |
Answer» Correct Answer - `15` Percentage of phosphorus `=62/222xx("Mass of "Mg_(2)P_(2)O_(7))/("Mass of compound")xx100=62/222xx0.1697/0.3160xx100=15 %` |

Answer» % of `S=(32xx"wt. of" BaSO_(4))/(233xx"wt. of organic substance")xx100` % of `S=(32xx0.35)/(233xx0.16)xx100=30.04%` |

Answer» w=0.2585 wt. of Agl=0.3894 % of `i=(127xx0.3894)/(235xx0.2585)xx100=81.4%` |

Will `C Cl_(4)` give white precipitate of AgCl on heating it with silver nitrate ? Give reason for your answer. |
Answer» When `C Cl_(4)` is heated with `AgNO_(3)` solution, white ppt. of `AgCl` will not be formed. The reason being that `C Cl_(4)` is a covalent compound, therefore, it does not ionize to give `Cl^(-)` ions needed for the formation of ppt. of AgCl. | |

Weak Acid does not dissociate completely into its ions. It is in equilibrium with its conugate base. Greater is the stability of conjugate base, greater is value of k for that equilibrium making the equilibrium move in `(Haoverset(K)hArrH+A^(-))` forward direction i.e. more is the degree of dissociation of that acid. Same is the case for weak bases. Factors affecting the stability of conjugate acid or base are electronic effect like resonance effect and inductive effect acting upon the species.
