  • 2.25 g

     

  • 4.5 g

     

  • 0.44 g   

     

  • 1.125 g 

     

(1)

Molarity = w×1000M×V (mL) ; 120=w×1000180×250

w=180×25020×1000  ;  w=2.25g



Q 2 :    

1 gram of sodium hydroxide was treated with 25 mL of 0.75 M HCl solution, the mass of sodium hydroxide left unreacted is equal to               [2024]

  • 750 mg

     

  • 250 mg

     

  • zero mg  

     

  • 200 mg   

     

(2)

Molarity =MolesVolume (mL)×1000

For HCl,

Number of moles =M×V(mL)1000=0.75×251000=0.7540

Mass of HCl reacted =0.7540×36.5=0.684g

According to balanced equation

NaOH1 mole (40 g)          +             HCl1 mole (36.5 g)NaCl+H2O  

36.5 g HCl reacts with 40 g NaOH

0.684 g HCl will react with 4036.5×0.684=0.75g

NaOH left unreacted =1-0.75=0.25g or 250mg



Q 3 :    

The right option for the mass of CO2 produced by heating 20 g of 20% pure limestone is (Atomic mass of Ca = 40)                     

[CaCO31200KCaO+CO2]                                             [2023]
 

  • 2.64 g

     

  • 1.32 g

     

  • 1.12 g

     

  • 1.76 g

     

(4)

        CaCO340+12+16×3=100g       1200K      CaO40+16=56g     +      CO244 g

100 g CaCO3 produced CO2 gas = 44 g

20 g CaCO3 will produce CO2 gas = 44100×20=8.8g

If sample is 100% pure, CO2 produced = 8.8 g

If sample is 20% pure, CO2 produced = 8.8100×20=1.76g



Q 4 :    

What mass of 95% pure CaCO3 will be required to neutralise 50 mL of 0.5 M HCl solution according to the following reaction?  

CaCO3(s)+2HCl(aq)CaCl2(aq)+CO2(g)+2H2O(l)

[Calculate upto second place of decimal point.]                       [2022]

  • 1.25 g

     

  • 1.32 g

     

  • 3.65 g

     

  • 9.50 g

     

(2)

Volume of HCl = 50 mL = 0.05 L

Molarity of HCl = 0.5 M

   Moles of HCl = 0.05×0.5=0.025 moles

CaCO3+2HCl CaCl2+CO2+H2O

For 2 moles of HCl, CaCO3 required = 1 mole

    For 0.025 moles of HCl, CaCO3 required = 0.0252 moles

Mass of CaCO3 required = 100×0.0252=1.25 g

For 95% pure CaCO3, mass of CaCO3 required = 1.2595×100g=1.315g1.32 g



Q 5 :    

The number of moles of hydrogen molecules required to produce 20 moles of ammonia through Haber's process is             [2019]

  • 40

     

  • 10

     

  • 20

     

  • 30

Haber’s process, N2+3H22NH3

2 moles of NH3 are formed by 3 moles of H2.

    20 moles of NH3 will be formed by 30 moles of H2.



Q 6 :    

The density of 2 M aqueous solution of NaOH is 1.28 g/cm3. The molality of the solution is [Given that molecular mass of NaOH = 40 g mol-1]           [2019]

  • 1.20 m

     

  • 1.56 m

     

  • 1.67 m

     

  • 1.32 m  

     

(3)

Density = 1.28 g/cc, Conc. of solution = 2 M

Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g mol-1

Volume of solution = 1 L = 1000 mL

Mass of solution =d×V=1.28×1000=1280 g

Mass of solute =n×Molar mass=2×40=80 g

Mass of solvent = (1280 - 80) g = 1200 g

     Molality =2×10001200=1.67 m



Q 7 :    

A mixture of 2.3 g formic acid and 4.5 g oxalic acid is treated with conc. H2SO4. The evolved gaseous mixture is passed through KOH pellets. Weight (in g) of the remaining product at STP will be                 [2018]

  • 1.4 

     

  • 3.0

     

  • 2.8

     

  • 4.4

     

(3)

[IMAGE 1]

H2O gets absorbed by conc. H2SO4. Gaseous mixture (containing CO and CO2) when passed through KOH pellets, CO2 gets absorbed.

Moles of CO left (unabsorbed) = 120+120=110

Mass of CO = moles × molar mass = 110×28=2.8g



Q 8 :    

What is the mass of the precipitate formed when 50 mL of 16.9% solution of AgNO3 is mixed with 50 mL of 5.8% NaCl solution?

(Ag = 107.8, N = 14, O = 16, Na = 23, Cl = 35.5)                                     [2015]

  • 3.5 g

     

  • 7 g

     

  • 14 g

     

  • 28 g

     

(2)

16.9% solution of AgNO3 means 16.9 g of AgNO3 in 100 mL of solution =8.45 g of AgNO3 in 50 mL solution.

Similarly, 5.8 g of NaCl in 100 mL solution 2.9 g of NaCl in 50 mL solution.

The reaction can be represented as:
