24 g of magnesium in the vapour state absorb 1200 kJ of energy. If IE_1 and IE_2 of magnesium are 750 and 1450 kJ mol^(-1) respectively, the final composition of mixture is

Answer»

0.69 MOL `MG^(+)` and 0.31 mol `Mg^(2+)`
0.59 mol `Mg^(+)` and 0.41 mol `Mg^(2+)`
0.49 mol `Mg^(+)` and 0.51 mol `Mg^(2+)`
0.29 mol `Mg^(+)` and 0.71 mol `Mg^(2+)`

Solution :Molar MASS of Mg =24 g `mol^(-1)`
`:.` Amount of Mg=1 mol
THUS, 750 kJ of energy is used up to convert 1 mol of Mg to `Mg^(+)`

.^(227)Ac has a half-line of 22 year with respect to radiioactive decay. The decay follows two parallel paths, one leading to .^(227)Th and the other leading to .^(223)Fr. The percentage yiedls of these two daughter nuclides are 2% and 98.0% respectovely. What is the rate constant in "year"^(-1), for each of the separate paths?

Answer»

Solution :We know,
`lambda_(av) = (0.693)/(22) = 3.15xx10^(-2) "year"^(-1)`
For the decay involving TWO PARALLEL paths,

We have `lambda_(AC) = lambda_("Th path") + lambda_("Fr path")`
`:. Lambda_(Ac) xx "Fraction of Th" = lambda_("Th path")` ....(1)
`lambda_(AC) xx "Fraction of Fr" = lambda_("Fr path")` .....(2)
or `lambda_(AC) xx (1 - "Fraction of Th") = lambda_("Fr path")` .....(3)
Thus by eqs. (1) and (3) we get
`lambda_(AC) =lambda_("Th path") + lambda_("Fr path")`
Thus by eqs. (1) and (3) we get
`lambda_(AC) = lambda_("Th path")+ lambda_("Fr path")`
Thus, Fractionlal yield of `Th = (lambda_("Th path"))/(lambda_("Ac path"))`
or `lambda_("Th path")=3.15xx10^(-2)xx(2)/(100)`
`=6.30xx10^(-4)yr^(-1)`
Also Fractional yeild of Fr`=(lambda_("Fr path"))/(lambda_(Ac path))`
`:. lambda_(Fr) = 3.15xx10^(-2) xx (98)/(100) =3.087xx10^(-2) yr^(-1)`

22.71 Lit means ………. meter ?

Answer»

Solution :`22.71 L = 22.71 xx10^(-3)m^(3)`
1 LIT `= 1 (DM)^(3)`
`1 dm = 0.1 m = 1xx10^(-1)m`
`1 (dm)^(3)=(0.1 m)^(3)=1xx10^(-3)m^(3)`
`1L=1(dm)^(3)=1xx10^(-3)m^(3)`
`therefore 22.71 L =(22.71 L xx1xx10^(-3)m^(3))/(12)=22.71xx10^(-3)m^(3)` gas
Molar VOLUME `= 22.71 L = 22.71xx10^(-3)m^(3)`

20g of sample containing Ba(OH)_(2) is dissolved in 10 ml of 0.5 MHCl solution. The excess of HCl was then titrated against 0.2 M NaOH. The volume of NaOH used in the titration was 10 ml. Calculate the percentage of Ba(OH)_(2) in the sample. (Mol. wt. of Ba(OH_(2))=171)

Answer»

Solution :Calculation of volume of HCl used in titration between NAOH and HCl.
`V_(NaOH) =10 ML, M_(NaOH) = 0.2 M, M_(HC) = 0.5 M, V_(HCl)`=?
`M_(NaOH) xx V_(NaOH) = M_(HCl) xx V_(HCl), V_(HCl) = (10 xx 0.2)/0.5 = 4 ml`
This is the volume of HCl left unused when excess of HCl is added to `Ba(OH)_(2)` solution.
Total volume of HCl added = 10 ml
Volume of HCl used to react with `Ba(OH)_(2) = 10-4 = 6` ml
`2HCl + Ba(OH)_(2) to BaCl_(2) + 2H_(2)O`
M = No. of moles x `1000/("volume of solution") rArr 0.5 = "moles" xx 1000/6`.
`(0.5 xx 6)/1000` = moles of HCl Moles of HCl used = 0.003 moles.
Observing the molar ratio of HCl and `Ba(OH)_(2)`.
Moles of `Ba(OH)_(2)` REACTED `=1/2` x moles of HCl reacted `=1/2 xx 0.003 = 0.0015` moles.
Weight of `Ba(OH)_(2)` reacted = no. of moles x mol. WT. =` 0.0015 xx 171 = 0.2565` g
Percentage of `Ba(OH)_(2)` in the sample `=(wt. of Ba(OH)_(2) "reacted")/("Total weight of sample") xx 100` = 1.28 %

Volume of hydrogen gas at `35^(@)C=21.38 mL`
51399.

20 ml of H_(2)O_(2) after acidification with dil H_(2)SO_(4), required 30 ml of N/2 KMnO_(4) for complete oxidation. Calculate the % of H_(2)O_(2) in gr/lit.

Answer»

10.75 g/lit
11.75 g/lit
12.75 g/lit
13.75 g/lit

Solution :MEQ. of `O_(2)="Meq. of "H_(2)O_(2)="Meq. of "KMnO_(4)`
`(W times 1000)/(34//2)=1/2 times 30`
`W=1/2 times (300 times 17)/1000=0.255 gr//20ml`
`N_(H_(2)O_(2))=0.255/17 times 1000/20=0.75`
STRENGTH `=0.75 times 17=12.75` gr/lit
51400.

20 mL of a solution of H_2SO_4 neutralises 21.2 mL of 30% solution (w/v) of Na_2CO_3. How much water should be added to each 100 mL of the solution to bring down its strength to decinormal ?

Answer»


Solution :The corresponding equation is:
`underset(105.99 g)(Na_(2)CO_(3)) + underset(98.076 g)(H_(2)SO_(4)) to Na_(2)SO_(4) + H_(2)O + CO_(2)`
The amount of `Na_2CO_3` present in 21.2 mL solution.
`=3/100 xx 21.2 = 0.63 g`
`therefore 105.99 g` of `Na_(2)CO_(3)` react with `H_(2)SO_(4) = 98.076 g`
`therefore 0.636 g` of `Na_(2)CO_(3)` will react with `H_(2)SO_(4)`
`=98.076/105.99 xx 0.636 = 0.588 g`
This much `H_(2)SO_(4)` is present in 20 mL.
`therefore W=(NEV)/1000`
`therefore 0.588 = (N xx 49.038 xx 20)/1000`
(Eq. wt. of `H_(2)SO_(4) = (98.076)/2 = 49.038`)
`therefore N=0.599 = 0.6`
Therefore, the normality of the given `H_2SO_4` solution is 0.6 N. Suppose, v mL of water are REQUIRED to be added to 100 mL of it to make it decinormal `N/10`
`therefore 0.6 xx 100 = 1/10 xx (100 + v)` which GIVES v = 500 mL
Hence, 500 mL of water should be added to each 100 mL of the solution of `H_2SO_4` to bring down its strength to decinormal.
