'25 volume' hydrogen peroxide means
Explanation:
The first step is to write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction between the complex and silver nitrate, as follows:
$\left(\mathrm{Cr}\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_5 \mathrm{Cl}\right) \mathrm{Cl}_2 + 2 \mathrm{AgNO}_3 \longrightarrow \left(\mathrm{Cr}\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_5 \mathrm{Cl}\right) + 2 \mathrm{AgCl} + 2 \mathrm{NO}_3^-$
From the equation, we can see that 1 mole of the complex consumes 2 moles of silver nitrate to form 2 moles of silver chloride. Therefore, the number of millimoles of chloride ions present in the given solution can be calculated as:
$\text{Millimoles of } \mathrm{Cl}^- \text{ ions} = \text{concentration} \times \text{volume} = 0.01\ \mathrm{M} \times 2 \times 10\ \mathrm{mL} = 0.2\ \mathrm{mmol}$
To calculate the volume of 0.1 M silver nitrate required, we can use the formula:
$\text{Millimoles of silver nitrate required} = \text{Millimoles of chloride ions} \times 2 = 0.4\ \mathrm{mmol}$
We can then use the formula:
$\text{Volume of silver nitrate solution} = \frac{\text{Millimoles of silver nitrate required}}{\text{Molarity of silver nitrate solution}}$
Substituting the values, we get:
$\text{Volume of silver nitrate solution} = \frac{0.4\ \mathrm{mmol}}{0.1\ \mathrm{M}} = 4\ \mathrm{mL}$
Therefore, the volume of 0.1 M silver nitrate required for complete precipitation of chloride ions present in 20 mL of 0.01 M $\left[\mathrm{Cr}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_5 \mathrm{Cl}\right] \mathrm{Cl}_{2}$ solution as silver chloride is $\boxed{4\ \mathrm{mL}}$.
$1 \mathrm{~g}$ of a carbonate $\left(\mathrm{M}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}\right)$ on treatment with excess $\mathrm{HCl}$ produces $0.01 \mathrm{~mol}$ of $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$. The molar mass of $\mathrm{M}_{2} \mathrm{CO}_{3}$ is __________ $\mathrm{g} ~\mathrm{mol}^{-1}$. (Nearest integer)
Explanation:
$\mathrm{M}_2\mathrm{CO}_3 + 2\mathrm{HCl} \rightarrow 2\mathrm{MCl} + \mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{O} + \mathrm{CO}_2$
From the problem, we know that 1 g of the carbonate produces 0.01 mol of CO2.
To determine the molar mass of the carbonate, we can use the stoichiometry of the reaction:
1 mol of $\mathrm{M}_2\mathrm{CO}_3$ produces 1 mol of CO2.
So, 0.01 mol of CO2 corresponds to 0.01 mol of $\mathrm{M}_2\mathrm{CO}_3$.
Now, we can find the molar mass of $\mathrm{M}_2\mathrm{CO}_3$:
$\frac{\text{mass of }\mathrm{M}_2\mathrm{CO}_3}{\text{moles of }\mathrm{M}_2\mathrm{CO}_3} = \text{molar mass of }\mathrm{M}_2\mathrm{CO}_3$
$\frac{1 \text{ g}}{0.01 \text{ mol}} = 100 \text{ g mol}^{-1}$
So, the molar mass of $\mathrm{M}_2\mathrm{CO}_3$ is approximately 100 g/mol.
An organic compound gives $0.220 \mathrm{~g}$ of $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ and $0.126 \mathrm{~g}$ of $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$ on complete combustion. If the $\%$ of carbon is 24 then the $\%$ of hydrogen is __________ $\times 10^{-1}$. ( Nearest integer)
Explanation:
The moles of COâ‚‚ produced can be calculated by dividing the mass of COâ‚‚ produced by its molar mass (44.01 g/mol):
$\text{moles of CO}_{2} = \frac{0.220 \,\mathrm{g}}{44.01 \,\mathrm{g/mol}} = 0.005 \, \mathrm{mol}$
Since each mole of COâ‚‚ contains one mole of carbon, there are 0.005 moles of carbon in the compound.
Now, let's calculate the moles of Hâ‚‚O produced:
$\text{moles of H}_{2}\text{O} = \frac{0.126 \,\mathrm{g}}{18.02 \,\mathrm{g/mol}} = 0.007 \, \mathrm{mol}$
Since each mole of Hâ‚‚O contains two moles of hydrogen, there are 0.014 moles of hydrogen in the compound.
Now, let's find the masses of carbon and hydrogen in the compound:
Mass of carbon = moles of carbon × molar mass of carbon
$\text{Mass of carbon} = 0.005 \, \mathrm{mol} \times 12.01 \,\mathrm{g/mol} = 0.060 \,\mathrm{g}$
Mass of hydrogen = moles of hydrogen × molar mass of hydrogen
$\text{Mass of hydrogen} = 0.014 \, \mathrm{mol} \times 1.008 \,\mathrm{g/mol} = 0.014 \,\mathrm{g}$
Now, we are given that the percentage of carbon is 24%. Let's find the total mass of the compound:
$\text{Total mass of compound} = \frac{\text{Mass of carbon}}{\% \text{ of carbon}} = \frac{0.060 \,\mathrm{g}}{0.24} = 0.250 \,\mathrm{g}$
Finally, let's find the percentage of hydrogen:
$\% \text{ of hydrogen} = \frac{\text{Mass of hydrogen}}{\text{Total mass of compound}} \times 100 = \frac{0.014 \,\mathrm{g}}{0.250 \,\mathrm{g}} \times 100 = 5.6$
So, the percentage of hydrogen is 5.6% or 56 × 10-1.
$20 \mathrm{~mL}$ of calcium hydroxide was consumed when it was reacted with $10 \mathrm{~mL}$ of unknown solution of $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}$. Also $20 \mathrm{~mL}$ standard solution of $0.5 ~\mathrm{M} ~\mathrm{HCl}$ containing 2 drops of phenolphthalein was titrated with calcium hydroxide, the mixture showed pink colour when burette displayed the value of $35.5 \mathrm{~mL}$ whereas the burette showed $25.5 \mathrm{~mL}$ initially. The concentration of $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}$ is _____________ M. (Nearest integer)
Explanation:
$\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_2+2 \mathrm{HCl} \rightarrow \mathrm{CaCl}_2+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
Volume of $\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_2=10 \mathrm{ml}$
Volume of $\mathrm{HCl}=20 \mathrm{ml}$
Concentration of $\mathrm{HCl}=0.5 \mathrm{M}$.
No. of milli moles of $\mathrm{HCl}=10$
No. of milli moles of $\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_2=5$.
i.e. $\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_2}=\frac{\text { no. of milli moles }}{\mathrm{V}(\mathrm{ml})}=\frac{5}{10}$ $=0.5 \mathrm{M}$.
Reaction with $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$:
$\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_2+\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4 \rightarrow \mathrm{CaSO}_4+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} \text {. }$
No. of milli moles of $\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_2=20 \times 0.5$ $=10$
i.e. no. of milli moles of $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4=10$
$ \begin{aligned} \Rightarrow & \mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4}=\frac{\text { no, of milli moles }}{\mathrm{V}(\mathrm{ml})} \\\\ & =\frac{10}{10} \\\\ & =1 \mathrm{M} \end{aligned} $
So, the concentration of $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$ is 1 M.
The volume of hydrogen liberated at STP by treating $2.4 \mathrm{~g}$ of magnesium with excess of hydrochloric acid is _________ $\times ~10^{-2} \mathrm{~L}$
Given : Molar volume of gas is $22.4 \mathrm{~L}$ at STP.
Molar mass of magnesium is $24 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$
Explanation:
`Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) → MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)`
From the equation, we see that 1 mole of magnesium (Mg) produces 1 mole of hydrogen gas (H2).
The molar mass of magnesium (Mg) is given as 24 g/mol. Therefore, 2.4 g of magnesium would correspond to (2.4 g)/(24 g/mol) = 0.1 mol of Mg.
Since 1 mole of Mg produces 1 mole of H2, 0.1 mol of Mg would produce 0.1 mol of H2.
At STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure), the molar volume of a gas is 22.4 L/mol.
Therefore, the volume of 0.1 mol of H2 would be (0.1 mol)*(22.4 L/mol) = 2.24 L.
So, the volume of hydrogen liberated at STP by treating 2.4 g of magnesium with excess of hydrochloric acid is 2.24 L.
In the terms of the question where the volume is expressed as ______ × 10-2 L, we convert 2.24 L into the desired form, i.e., 2.24 L = 2.24 $ \times $ 102 $ \times $ 10-2 L, so the answer is 224 × 10-2 L.
A solution of sugar is obtained by mixing $200 \mathrm{~g}$ of its $25 \%$ solution and $500 \mathrm{~g}$ of its $40 \%$ solution (both by mass). The mass percentage of the resulting sugar solution is ___________ (Nearest integer)
Explanation:
Let's first calculate the amount of sugar in each of the solutions :
In the 25% sugar solution, the amount of sugar is 25% of 200 g, which equals 50 g.
In the 40% sugar solution, the amount of sugar is 40% of 500 g, which equals 200 g.
Now, let's mix these two solutions together:
The total amount of sugar in the combined solution is 50 g (from the 25% solution) + 200 g (from the 40% solution) = 250 g.
The total weight of the combined solution is 200 g (of the 25% solution) + 500 g (of the 40% solution) = 700 g.
Therefore, the mass percentage of sugar in the combined solution is $ =\frac{250}{700} \times 100 $ = 35.71%
Rounding to the nearest integer gives 36%. So, the mass percentage of the resulting sugar solution is 36%.
$0.5 \mathrm{~g}$ of an organic compound $(\mathrm{X})$ with $60 \%$ carbon will produce __________ $\times 10^{-1} \mathrm{~g}$ of $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ on complete combustion.
Explanation:
Molar Mass of $\mathrm{CO}_2=12+(16 \times 2)=44$
Mass of Compound $=0.5 \mathrm{~g}$
$ \begin{aligned} &\% \text { of } \mathrm{C} =\frac{\text { Molar mass of } \mathrm{C} \times \text { Mass Of } \mathrm{CO}_2}{\text { Mass Of Compound } \times \text { Molar Mass } \mathrm{Of} ~ \mathrm{CO}_2} \\\\ &\frac{60}{100} =\frac{12 \times x}{0.5 \times 44} \\\\ &1.1 =x \\\\ &x =11 \times 10^{-1} \end{aligned} $
If 5 moles of $\mathrm{BaCl}_{2}$ is mixed with 2 moles of $\mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4}$, the maximum number of moles of $\mathrm{Ba}_{3}\left(\mathrm{PO}_{4}\right)_{2}$ formed is ___________ (Nearest integer)
Explanation:
Given the balanced chemical equation:
$3 \mathrm{BaCl}_2 + 2 \mathrm{Na}_3\mathrm{PO}_4 \rightarrow \mathrm{Ba}_3\mathrm{(PO}_4)_2 + 6 \mathrm{NaCl}$
We can see that 3 moles of $\mathrm{BaCl}_2$ react with 2 moles of $\mathrm{Na}_3\mathrm{PO}_4$ to produce 1 mole of $\mathrm{Ba}_3\mathrm{(PO}_4)_2$.
Given that you have 5 moles of $\mathrm{BaCl}_2$ and 2 moles of $\mathrm{Na}_3\mathrm{PO}_4$, let's calculate the maximum number of moles of $\mathrm{Ba}_3\mathrm{(PO}_4)_2$ that can be formed:
From $\mathrm{BaCl}_2$, using the molar ratio from the balanced equation:
$5 \text{ moles } \mathrm{BaCl}_2 \times \frac{1 \text{ mole } \mathrm{Ba}_3\mathrm{(PO}_4)_2}{3 \text{ moles } \mathrm{BaCl}_2} = \frac{5}{3} \text{ moles } \mathrm{Ba}_3\mathrm{(PO}_4)_2$
From $\mathrm{Na}_3\mathrm{PO}_4$, using the molar ratio from the balanced equation:
$2 \text{ moles } \mathrm{Na}_3\mathrm{PO}_4 \times \frac{1 \text{ mole } \mathrm{Ba}_3\mathrm{(PO}_4)_2}{2 \text{ moles } \mathrm{Na}_3\mathrm{PO}_4} = 1 \text{ mole } \mathrm{Ba}_3\mathrm{(PO}_4)_2$
The limiting reactant is $\mathrm{Na}_3\mathrm{PO}_4$ because it produces 1 mole of $\mathrm{Ba}_3\mathrm{(PO}_4)_2$, which is less than the $\frac{5}{3}$ moles produced by $\mathrm{BaCl}_2$.
Therefore, the maximum number of moles of $\mathrm{Ba}_3\mathrm{(PO}_4)_2$ formed is 1 mole. Rounding to the nearest integer, the answer is 1.

Explanation:

Explanation:

$\frac{50}{22.7}$
$\therefore$ Moles of $\mathrm{H_2O_2}$ in solution $=\frac{50}{22.7}\times2$

Given :
atomic mass : C = 12
H = 1

Explanation:
Mass of $\mathrm{CHCl_3=671.141\times1.49=1000}$ gm
$2.6 \times {10^{ - 3}} = {{moles\,of\,C{H_2}C{l_2}} \over {0.671141}}$
$\Rightarrow$ moles of $C{H_2}C{l_2} = 1.74496 \times {10^{ - 3}}$
mass of $C{H_2}C{l_2} = 148.32 \times {10^{ - 3}}$ gm
Composition of $C{H_2}C{l_2} = {{148.32 \times {{10}^{ - 3}}} \over {1000}} \times {10^6}$
= 148.32 ppm
$\approx$ 148

When $\mathrm{Fe_{0.93}O}$ is heated in presence of oxygen, it converts to $\mathrm{Fe_2O_3}$. The number of correct statement/s from the following is ________
A. The equivalent weight of $\mathrm{Fe_{0.93}O}$ is ${{\mathrm{Molecular\,weight}} \over {0.79}}$
B. The number of moles of Fe$^{2+}$ and Fe$^{3+}$ in 1 mole of $\mathrm{Fe_{0.93}O}$ is 0.79 and 0.14 respectively
C. $\mathrm{Fe_{0.93}O}$ is metal deficient with lattice comprising of cubic closed packed arrangement of O$^{2-}$ ions
D. The % composition of Fe$^{2+}$ and Fe$^{3+}$ in $\mathrm{Fe_{0.93}O}$ is 85% and 15% respectively
Explanation:
According to the charge neutrality,
$ \begin{aligned} & 2 x+3(0.93-x)=2 \Rightarrow 2 x-3 x+2.79=2 \Rightarrow x=0.79 \\\\ & \mathrm{Fe}^{2+} \text { ion }=x=0.79 \\\\ & \mathrm{Fe}^{3+} \text { ion }=0.93-x=0.93-0.79=0.14 \\\\ & \% \text { of } \mathrm{Fe}^{2+} \text { ion }=\frac{0.79}{0.93} \times 100=84.95 \% \approx 85 \% \\\\ & \% \text { of } \mathrm{Fe}^{3+} \text { ion }=\frac{0.14}{0.93} \times 100=15.05 \% \end{aligned} $
As it is a metal deficiency defect,
so, 1 mol of $\mathrm{Fe}_{0.93} \mathrm{O}$ contains $1 \mathrm{~mol}$ of oxide ions and $0.93 \mathrm{~mol}$ of iron ions as $\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}$ and $\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}$.
So, moles of $\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}=0.79$
and moles of $\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}=0.14$
$ \text { The equivalent weight }=\frac{\text { Molecular weight }}{n \text {-factor }} $
$F{e^{2 + }} \to F{e^{3 + }} + {e^ - }$
For one $\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}, n$-factor $=1$
$\therefore $ For $0.79 \,\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}, n$-factor $=0.79$
Out of $0.93 \mathrm{~mol}$, there are $0.79 \mathrm{~mol} \,\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}$ ions are present.
5 g of NaOH was dissolved in deionized water to prepare a 450 mL stock solution. What volume (in mL) of this solution would be required to prepare 500 mL of 0.1 M solution? _____________
Given : Molar Mass of Na, O and H is 23, 16 and 1 g mol$^{-1}$ respectively
Explanation:
$\Rightarrow M \times V=500 \times .1$
$\Rightarrow \frac{5}{40} \times \frac{1000}{450} \times V=500 \times 0.1$
$\mathrm{V}=180 \mathrm{~mL}$
Explanation:
We start with the balanced redox reaction :
$2 \, \mathrm{KMnO}_4 + 3 \, \mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{SO}_4 + 5 \, \mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{S} \rightarrow \mathrm{K}_2\mathrm{SO}_4 + 2 \, \mathrm{MnSO}_4 + 5 \, \mathrm{S} + 8 \, \mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{O}$
We want to find out the number of moles of water ($x$) produced and the number of moles of electrons ($y$) involved in this reaction.
From the balanced equation, we can see that 8 moles of water are produced from the reaction. So, we can say :
$x = 8$
Hydrogen sulfide ($\mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{S}$) gets oxidized to sulfur ($\mathrm{S}$) in this reaction. Each molecule of $\mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{S}$ loses 2 electrons during this process (as sulfur has an oxidation state of -2 in $\mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{S}$ and 0 in $\mathrm{S}$).
So, for every mole of $\mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{S}$, 2 moles of electrons are involved. And since 5 moles of $\mathrm{H}_2\mathrm{S}$ are reacting, the total number of moles of electrons involved is $5 \times 2 = 10$. So, we can say :
$y = 10$
We are asked to find the sum of $x$ and $y$, so we add these two values together to get:
$x + y = 8 + 10 = 18$
Therefore, the value of $(x + y)$ is 18.

$\begin{aligned} & \therefore \text { Percentage yield }=\frac{75}{100}=0.75 \\\\ & \therefore \text { Mole formed of cyclic tetramer }=0.75 \\\\ & \therefore \text { Weight }=0.75 \times 296=222 \mathrm{~g}\end{aligned}$
If $20 \mathrm{~g}$ of $\mathrm{CaCO}_3$ is treated with $100 \mathrm{~mL}$ of $20 \%$ $\mathrm{HCl}$ solution, the amount of $\mathrm{CO}_2$ produced is

A 1.84 mg sample of polyhydric alcoholic compound 'X' of molar mass 92.0 g/mol gave 1.344 mL of $\mathrm{H}_{2}$ gas at STP. The number of alcoholic hydrogens present in compound 'X' is ________.
Explanation:
STP conditions define the volume of 1 mole of any gas as $22.4$ liters or $22400$ mL. The volume of hydrogen gas evolved here is $1.344$ mL, so we can calculate the number of moles of hydrogen gas ($H_2$) using the formula:
$n = \frac{V}{V_m}$
where:
- $n$ is the number of moles,
- $V$ is the volume of the gas, and
- $V_m$ is the molar volume of the gas.
Substituting in the given values:
$n = \frac{1.344 \text{ mL}}{22400 \text{ mL/mol}} = 5.995 \times 10^{-5} \text{ mol}$
Each molecule of $H_2$ contains $2$ atoms of hydrogen. Therefore, the number of moles of hydrogen atoms is twice the number of moles of hydrogen gas:
$n_H = 2 \times n = 2 \times 5.995 \times 10^{-5} \text{ mol} = 1.199 \times 10^{-4} \text{ mol}$
This number of moles of hydrogen represents the number of moles of alcoholic hydrogen atoms in the $1.84$ mg sample of the compound 'X'.
We can determine the number of moles of compound 'X' in the sample by dividing the mass of the sample by the molar mass of the compound:
$n_X = \frac{m}{M}$
where:
- $n_X$ is the number of moles of 'X',
- $m$ is the mass of 'X', and
- $M$ is the molar mass of 'X'.
Substituting in the given values:
$n_X = \frac{1.84 \text{ mg}}{92 \text{ g/mol}} = \frac{1.84 \times 10^{-3} \text{ g}}{92 \text{ g/mol}} = 2.0 \times 10^{-5} \text{ mol}$
The number of alcoholic hydrogens per molecule of 'X' is then given by the ratio of the number of moles of hydrogen to the number of moles of 'X':
$\frac{n_H}{n_X} = \frac{1.199 \times 10^{-4} \text{ mol}}{2.0 \times 10^{-5} \text{ mol}} = 6$
So, compound 'X' contains $6$ alcoholic hydrogens.

In the given reaction,
$X+Y+3 Z \leftrightarrows X YZ_{3}$
if one mole of each of $X$ and $Y$ with $0.05 \mathrm{~mol}$ of $Z$ gives compound $X Y Z_{3}$. (Given : Atomic masses of $X, Y$ and $Z$ are 10, 20 and 30 amu, respectively.) The yield of $X YZ_{3}$ is _____________ g. (Nearest integer)
Explanation:
Limiting reagent is $Z=\frac{0.05}{3}=.016$
3 moles of $Z \rightarrow 1$ mole of $X Y Z_{3}$
$0.05$ mole of $Z \rightarrow \frac{1}{3} \times 0.05$ mole of $X Y Z_{3}$
M.wt. of $\mathrm{XYZ}_{3}=10+20+90$
$=120\, \mathrm{amu}$
Wt. of $X Y Z_{3}=\frac{.05}{3} \times 120$
$=2 \mathrm{~g}$

Explanation:
$ \begin{aligned} &=\frac{2}{18} \times \frac{0.4428}{0.492} \times 100 \\\\ &=0.11 \times 0.9 \times 100 \\\\ &=0.099 \times 100=9.9 \end{aligned} $
$\%$ of $C=\frac{12}{44} \times \frac{0.7938}{0.492} \times 100$
$ \begin{aligned} &=0.27 \times 1.61 \times 100 \\\\ &=43.47 \end{aligned} $
$\% \text { Oxygen }=100-(43.47 + 9.9)$
$=100-53.37 \simeq 46$
