The analysis of an organic compound gave the following data: (a) 0.4020g gave 0.6098g and 0.2080g of CO_(2) and H_(2)O respectively. (b) 1.01g by Kjeldahl method produced amonia whise was neutralised by 23.2mL of N/2HCl (c ) 0.1033g of the compound gave 0.2772g of BaSO_(4) (d) 0.1015g when vaporised in Victor Meyer's apparatus displaced 27.96mL of air at 15^(@)C and 766 mm pressure Calculate the molecular formula. (Aqueous tension at 15^(@)C=16mm)

Answer»

Solution :Moles of `C=1 xx` moles of `CO_(2)=1 xx (0.6098)/(44)= 0.0138`
Moles of `H= 2xx` moles of `H_(2)O = 2 xx (0.2080)/(18)= 0.0231`
Calculation of moles of N: m.e. of `HCl= 23.2 xx (1)/(2)=11.6`
`therefore` m.e. of `NH_(3)=11.6`
m mol of `NH_(3)=11.6`
Moles of `NH_(3)= (11.6)/(1000)= 0.0116`
`therefore` moles of `N =1 xx` moles of `NH_(3)=0.0116`
Moles of N in 0.4020g of compound `=(0.0116)/(1.01)xx 0.4020` =0.0046
Moles of `S=1 xx` moles of `BaSO_(4)= (0.2772)/(233.3)= 0.00119 (BaSO_(4)=233.3)`
Moles of S in 0.4020g of compound `=(0.00119)/(0.1033) xx 0.4020` = 0.0046
`therefore` mole of `C: H: N: S= 0.0138: 0.0138: 0.0046: 0.0046`
`=3:5:1:1`
Hence the empirical formula is `C_(3)H_(5)NS`
Calculation of molecular weight: PRESSURE due to dry AIR only `=766-16=750mm`
Volume of vapour of 0.1015g of compound at NTP `=(750 xx 27.96 xx 273)/(288 xx 760)=26.155mL`
`therefore` moles of vapour `=(26.155)/(22400)=0.00116`
Molecular weight `=("weight in grams")/("no. of moles") = (0.1015)/(0.00116)=86.97 ~~87`
Since empirical formula weight is also equal to 87, the molecular formula is `C_(3)H_(5)NS`

`10.8 g, 7.19 g`

`10.8 g , 10.8 g`

SOLUTION :(i) `H_(3)PO_(4) + 3NaOH to Na_(3)PO_(4) + 3H_(2)O , . E = M/3`
Meq . of `H_(3)PO_(4) = 550 xx 0.4`

The amount of solute (molar mass 60 g mol^(-1)) that must be added to 180 g of water so that the vapour pressure of water is lowered by 10% is

Answer»

30 g
60 g
120 g
12 g

Solution :RELATIVE LOWERING of vapour pressure is given by the formula :
`(p^(@)-p_(s))/(p^(@))=(omega_(A))/(m_(A))xx(m_(B))/(omega_(B))`
Given, relative lowering of vapour pressure
`=(p^(@)-p_(s))/(p^(@))=(10)/(100)`
`m_(A)=60, m_(B)=18, omega_(B)=180, omega_(A)=x`
`THEREFORE (10)/(100)=(x//60)/(180//18)rArr(1)/(10)=(x//60)/(10)rArr x = 60`
Thus, 60 g of the solute must be added to 180 g of water so that the vapour pressure of water is lowered by 10%.

The amount of energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from an isolated gaseous atom is called as first ionization energy (IE_1).Similarly the amount of energies required to knock out second third etc. electrons from the isolated gaseous cation are called successive ionization energies and IE_3gtIE_2gtIE_1 (i)Nuclear charge (ii)Atomic size (iii)penetration effect of the electrons (iv)shielding effect of the inner electrons and (v)electronic configurations (exactly half filled & completely filled configurations are considered extra stable) affect the ionisation energies. On the other hand, the amount of energy released when a neutral isolated gaseous atom accepts an extra electron to form gaseous anion is called electron affinity.

The members of third period have some higher (e.g. S and Cl) electron affinity values than the members of second period (e.g. O and F) because second period elements have very small atomic size.Hence there is a tendency of electron - electron repulsion, which results in less evolution of energy in the formation of corresponding anion. Which one of the following statements is incorrect in relation to ionisation enthalpy ?

Answer»

Ionization enthalpy increases for each successive valence shell electron
The GREATEST INCREASE in ionization enthalpy is EXPERIENCED on removal of electron from core of noble gas configuration
End of valence ELECTRONS is marked by a big jump in ionization enthalpy
Removal of electron from orbitals bearing lower n value is easier than from orbital having HIGHER n value

Solution :Orbitals bearing lower value of n will be more closer to the nucleus and thus electrons will experience greater attraction from nucleus and so its removal will be difficult not easier.

The amount of energy required to remove an electron from the last orbit of an isolated (free) atom in gaseous state is known as ionization potential or first ionization potential of the element. Similarly, the energy required for the removal of the electron from the unipositive ion (produced above) is referred to as second ionization potential and thus the third, fourth etc. lonization potentials may be defined in general as the number of ionization potentials of an element may be as much as its number of electrons.
