Explanation

(D). Since half cell reaction;

2e + Hg2Cl2(aq.)  2Hgl + 2Cl-

Zn amalgam is prepared by electrolysis of aqueous ZnCl2 using Hg cathode (9 gm). How much current is to be passed through ZnCl2 solution for 1000 seconds to prepare a Zn Amalgam with 25% Zn by wt. (Zn = 65.4)

Explanation

C). Let x gm of Zn deposit on 9 gm of Hg

% of Zn in Amalgam =x9+x×100=25   x=3gm

Eq. of Zn= 3×265.4; Current=665.4×965001000=8.85 amp.

The standard oxidation potentials of Cu/Cu2+and Cu+ /Cu2+ are  0.34V and  0.16 Vrespectively. The standard electrode potential of Cu+ /Cu would be :

Explanation

(B). Reactions Cu2++ 2e- Cu ; G° =  nFE°

          Cu+  Cu2++ e- ;G°I =2F × 0.34 = 0.68F

G°II = F × 0.16 = 0.16F

Adding, we get 

 Cu+ + e-Cu

G°III=G°I + G°II= 0.52F =  FE° E° = 0.52V

 

Acidified water is electrolysed using an inert electrode. The volume of gases liberated at STP is 0.168L. The quantity of charge passed through the acidified water would be:

Explanation

(C) 2H2O2x2H2gx+O2g3x = 0.168x = 0.056LVH2 = 2x = 0.112L, VO2 = x = 0.056L11.2L of H2 at STP  1F0.112L of H2 at STP  0.01F0.056L of O2 at STP = 0.01F

 The amount of electricity passed = 0.01F = 965C

 E0 for the reaction Fe + Zn2+ = Zn + Fe2+ is  0.35 V.The given cell reaction is-

Explanation

(B). Since EMF of the cell is negative i.e. Free energy change will be positive so cell reaction will not be feasible.

How much charge should be supplied to a cell for the electrolytic production of 245 gm NaClO4 from NaClO3 if the anode efficiency for the required reaction is 60%?

Explanation

(A) ClO4- + 2H+ + 2e-ClO3- + H2O

Number of equivalents of NaClO4=24561.25=44F

No. of Faradays =4×10060=6.67F=6.43×105C

During an electrolysis of conc. H2 SO4, perdisulphuric acid (H2 S2O8 ) and O2 form in equimolar amount. The amount of H2 that will form simultaneously will be

Explanation

(A) PbO2 + 4H+ + SO42- + 2e-PbSO4 + 2H2O; Eº = 1.70Pb + SO42-PbSO4+ 2e-;       Eº = 0.3PbO2 + Pb + 4H+ + 2SO42- 2PbSO4 + 2H2O ; Eº = 2.01

E=E°-0.05922log1H+4SO42-2=2.01-0.05922log1204 102=2.22 V

Now, (0.100 mol Pb)2 mol e-mol Pb 95500 Cmol e-=19300 C

Energy = qE = (19300 C) (2.22 V) = 42.8 kJ.
