Aqueous solution of which salt has the lowest pH?

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

(b) NH4Cl is acidic due to hydrolysis of NH4+;

                     NH4+ + H2NH4OH +H+ ; pH <7.

The value of H for the reaction,

   X2(g) + 4Y2(g2XY4 (g)

is less than zero. Formulation of XY4(g) will be favoured at

Explanation

(c)  X2(g) + 4Y2(g2XY4 (g); where

          H<0 and n<0  [n= nP - nR]

... The forward reaction is favored at high pressure and low temperature. (According to Le-Chateliers principle)

Salting out action of soap is based on:

Explanation

(c)

To precipitate soap from its saturated solution on addition of salt is called salting out the action of soap.

                        RCOONa RCOO- + Na+

                          Ksp = [RCOO-][Na+]

 
Hence, the ionic product  exceeds the solubility product of soap, and therefore, soap precipitates out from the solution.

Which is not an acid salt?

Explanation

(a) H3PO2 is monobasic acid and thus, it forms only one normal salt.

 The following equilibria are given

 N2 + 3H2  2NH3,      K1

N2 + O2  2NO,          K2

H212O2  H2O,       K3

The equilibrium constant of the reaction, 2NH352O2  2NO + 3H2O in terms of  K1, K2 and K3 is

Explanation

(b) For equilibrium,

(i)  N2 (g) + 3H(g)  2NH3 (g),

                  K1 = [NH3]2/[N2][H2]                          ...(i)

(ii)  N2(g) + O2(g)  2NO (g),

                 K2 = [NO]2/[N2][O2]                             .....(ii)

(iii) H2(g) + 12O2(g)  H2O (g),

                 K3 = [H2O]/[H2][O2]1/2                        ......(iii)

 For the reaction,

    2NH3 (g) + 5/2 O2 (g)  2NO (g) + 3H2O (g) 

                 K = [NO]2[H2O]3/[NH3]2[O2]5/2            ....(iv)

    Equation (iii) multiplied by 3

           3H2 + 3/2 O2 (g)  3H2O

   then,      K33 = [H2O]3/[H2]3[O2]3/2

 From eqs. (i), (ii) and (v) 

           K = (K2 K33)/K1

 

 

 

 

 

The pKa for acid A is greater than pKa for acid B. the strong acid is:

Explanation

(b) Higher pKa (-logKa) means lower Ka for acid.

A solution of FeCl3 in water acts as acidic due to:

Explanation

(c) Fe3+ + 3H2Fe(OH)3 + 3H+

Which equilibrium can be described as Lewis acid-base reaction but not Bronsted acid-base reaction?

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

(d) It involves gain and loss of electron pair (Lewis concept).

In the reaction, PCl5PCl3 + Cl2, the amounts of PCl5, PCl3 and Cl2 at equilibrium are 2 mole each and the total pressure is 3 atm. The equilibrium constant Kp is:

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

(a) Kp = (nCl2 x nPCl3)/nPCl5 x [p/Σn]1 = 2x2/2 x[3/6]1 = 1 atm

An aqueous solution of hydrogen sulphide shows the equilibrium,

           H2H+ + HS-

If dilute hydrochloic acid is added to an aqueous solution of hydrogen sulphide without any change in temperature, then:

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

(d) Ka for H2S = [H+][HS-]/H2S ;

An increase in [H+] will show a decrease in [HS-] to maintain constant Ka value.
