Explanation

The correct match is: (1) - (C) - (R), (2) - (C) - (S), (3) - (A) - (T), (4) - (B) - (P), (5) - (D) - (T). This matches the electrolytes (molten/aqueous NaCl, Al2O3, KHF2) with the respective products formed at the anode and cathode during electrolysis.

Which of the following is the strongest oxidising agent [Pb. CET 2000]

You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

Higher is the reduction potential stronger is the oxidising agent. Hence in the given options. MnO4 is strongest oxidising agent.  

An electrochemical cell is shown below Pt, H2(1 atm)| HCI (0.1 M)CH3COOH (0.1 M)|

H2(1 atm), Pt The EMF of the cell will not be zero, because

Explanation

(b) The EMF of the cell will not be zero because concentration of H+ ions in two electrolytic solutions is different. Mean HCl is strong acid where, acetic acid is weak acid and gives different pH.

Explanation

(c) The salt bridge possesses, the electrolyte having nearly same ionic mobilities of its cation and anion.

A current is passed through two voltameters connected in series. The first voltmeter connected in series. The first voltmeter contains XSO4(aq) while the second voltmeter contains Y2SO4(aq). The relative  atomic masses of X and Y are in the ratio of 2:1. The ration of the mass of X liberated to the mass of Y liberated is:

Explanation

Concept used: Faraday's first law.

Given : Q= 965 coulomb

wt of sub deposited is given by

w = 2 x Q             (Faraday's first law)

w=E96500 ×Q

Equivalent wt of metal E=molecular wt n-factor

Explanation

(C) Given, molar conductance at 0.1 M concentration,

λc = 9.54Ω-1 cmmol-1

Molar conductance at infinite dilution, 

λc= 238 Ω-1 cmmol-1.

We know that,

degree of ionisation, 

α= λc/λc

=(9.54/238) x 100 = 4.008%
