A coil of insulated copper wire is connected to a galvanometer. What will happen if a bar magnet is (i) pushed into the coil, (ii) withdrawn from inside the coil, (iii) held stationary inside the coil? |
|
Answer» A current induces in a solenoid if a bar magnet is moved relative to it. This is the principle of electromagnetic induction. (i) When a bar magnet is pushed into a coil of insulated copper wire, a current is induced momentarily in the coil. As a result, the needle of the galvanometer deflects momentarily in a particular direction. (ii) When the bar magnet is withdrawn from inside the coil of the insulated copper wire, a current is again induced momentarily in the coil in the opposite direction. As a result, the needle of the galvanometer deflects momentarily in the opposite direction. (iii) When a bar magnet is held stationary inside the coil, no current will be induced in the coil. Hence, galvanometer will show no deflection. |

A 50 ml sample of NaHCO3 and Na2CO3 is titrated with 12ml, 0.2M H2SO4 using methyl Orange to reach end Point. |
|
Answer» In case of phenolphathalin indicator - only Na2CO3 react with H2SO4 → 2NaHCO3 + Na2SO4 So number of M moles of Na2CO3 = Number of M moles of H+ ions = 2 x (0.2 x 4ml) ⇒ 1.6 M mole In case of method orange - both NaHCO3 and Na2Ca3 will react. 2NaHCO3 + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + H2O + CO2--- (i) Na2CO3 + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + H2O + CO2----(ii) Total M mole of H+ion = 2(12ml x 0.2 M) = 2(2.4 M mole) = 4.8 M mole from eqn ---(ii) \(\because\) 1 mole of Na2CO3 required to neutralize = 2 mole of H+ions \(\therefore\) 1.6 M mole Na2CO3 required to neutralize = 3.2 M mole of H+ions from eqn---(i) we can see that----- 1 mole of NaHCO3 required to neutralize = 1 mole of H+ions So, Number of M moles of NaHCO3 = (4.8 - 3.2) = 1.6 M mole Therefore the ration of M mole of NaHCO3 to Na2CO3 ⇒ 1.6/1.6 = 1 : 1 |
