If 10 gm of V2O5 is dissolved in acid and is reduced to V2+ by zinc metal, how many mole of I2 could be reduced by the resulting solution if it is further oxidised to VO2+ ions ? [Assume no change in state of Zn2+ions] (V = 51, O =16, I = 127) :

Explanation

6e- + 10H+ + V2O5 → 2V2+ + 5 H2 O

Zn → Zn2+ + 2e- 3 × 3

V2O5 + 3 Zn + 10 H+ → 3Zn2+ + 2V2+ + 5H2O    …

Now H2O + V2+ → VO2+ + 2H+ + 2e-

2e- + I2 → 2r-

V2+ + I2 + H2O → 2I- + VO2+ + 2H+

so we have 1 moles of V2O5 will reduce 2 moles of iodine

so 10102+80× 2 moles of will be reduced by given amount of V2O5 = 0.11moles of 12

0.70 g of mixture (NH4)2 SO4 was boiled with 100 mL of 0.2 N NaOH solution till all the NH3(g) evolved and get dissolved in solution itself. The remaining solution was diluted to 250 mL. 25 mL of this solution was neutralized using 10 mL of a 0.1 N H2SO4 solution. The percentage purity of the (NH4)2 SO sample is

Explanation

M.e. of NH3 = 10

m.e. of NH3 = 10

m.mole of (NH4)2SO4= 5

wt. of (NH4)2 SO4 = 5

wt. of (NH4)2 SO4 = 51000× 132 = 0.66 gm

% of (NH4)2 S04 = 0.660.7× 100 = 94.28 %

A mixed solution of potassium hydroxide and sodium carbonate required 15 mL. of an N/20 HCI solution when titrated with phenolphthalein as an indicator. But the same amount of the solution when titrated with methyl orange as an indicator required 25 mL of the same acid. The amount of KOH present in the solution is

Explanation

KOH + Na2aO3

a M.e.b.M.e.

a + b2 = 15 × 120

2a + b= 1.5 … (i) (in presence of phenolphthalein)

a + b = 25 × 120= 1.25… (ii) (in presence of Methyl orange)

by solving (i) & (ii) a = 0.25 m.e

mass of KOH = 0.251000× 56 = 0. 014 gm

When a solution containing 4.77 gm. of NaCl is added to a solution of 5.77 gm. of AgNO3, the weight of precipitated AgCl is [IIT 1978]

Explanation

                                 AgNO3    +    NaCl      →      AgCl   +   NaNO3  

Moles before mixing 5.77108+14+48       4.7758.5                   0             0

                                   = 0.0339        = 0.0815     (Here AgNO3 is limiting reactant, thus)

Moles after mixing            0            0.0815 – 0.0339        0.0339       0.0339

                                                         = 0.0476

∴ Moles of AgCl formed = 0.0339

∴ Mass of AgCl formed = Mol. mass × No. of moles = 143.5 × 0.0339 = 4.864 gm

In which of the following compounds, nitrogen exhibits highest oxidation state?

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

Let the oxidation state of nitrogen in the given compounds be x.

(a)  x  +1

      N2H4

              2x + (+1)4 = 0

                       2x = -4

                ...     x = -2

(b)  x +1

      NH3              x + (+1)3 =0

                          ... x = -3

(c)  x +1

      N3H               x3 + (+1)0 = 0

                             3x = -1

                        ... x = -1/3

(d)  x+1-2+1

      NH2OH              x + (+1)2+(-2)+(+1) =0

                                 x+2-2+1=0

                         ... x =-1

Oxidation states of P in H4P2O5, H4P2O6, H4P2O7, arc respectively

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

Key Idea Oxidation state of H is +1 and that of O is -2.

Let the oxidation state of P in the given compounds is x.

In H4P2O5 .

                  (+1) x 4 + 2 x x + (- 2) x 5 = 0

                 4+ 2x-10 = 0

                 2x = 6

                 x = + 3

In H4P2O6,

                     (+1)x4+2x + (-2)x6 = 0

                     4 + 2x-12=0

                     2x = 8

                     x = + 4

In H4P2O7,

                            (+1)x4+2 x (x + (-2)x7)=0

                             4+2x -14 = 0

                              2x=10

                               x=+ 5

Thus, the oxidation states of P in H4P2O5, H4P2O6, H4P2O7 are + 3 + 4 and +5 respectively.

Oxidation numbers of P in PO43-, of S in SO42- and that of Cr in Cr2O72- are respectively,
