Options:

A. 1400

B. 2200

C. 3360

D. 4200
Answer: C

Solution:
Given,
Mass of Fe3O4 = 4.640 kg = 4640 gm
Molar mass of Fe3O4 = 56 × 3 + 16 × 4 = 232g
4640
∴ Moles of F 3O4 = = 20
232
Also, given
Mass of CO = 2.520 kg = 2520 gm
Molar mass of CO = 12 + 16 = 28 gm
2520
∴ Molar of CO = = 90
28

Here Fe3O4 is limiting reagent as to find limiting reagent, divide the given moles of reactants with their respective
stoichiometric coefficient and reactant for which this ratio is minimum will be limiting reagent

[ . Given : R = 0.082L atm K mol ]
[29-Jun-2022-Shift-1]

Answer: 152

Solution:

From ideal gas equation we know

PV = nRT
 W
⇒PV = RT
M
W RT
⇒P = ⋅
V M
⇒P = d ⋅
RT
M
∵d =[ W
V ]
We know, 760 mm of Hg = 1 atm
100
∴100 mm of Hg = atm
760
100
∴ Pressure (P) = atm
760
Density (d ) = 0.46
R = 0.082L atm K−1 mol−1
T = (257 + 273)K = 530K
Putting the values in above equation, we get
100 0.46 × 0.082 × 530
=

B. 2376g and 2592g

C. 2592g and 2376g

D. 3429g and 3142g

Answer: C

Solution:

45
C15H 30 + O → 15CO2 + 15H 2O
2 2
Given, volume of fuel = 1L = 1000ml
And density of fuel = 0.756g ∕ ml
We know,
w
d =
v
w
⇒0.756 =
1000
⇒W = 756gm
∴ weight of fuel = 756gm
Molar mass of C15H 30 = 15 × 12 + 30 = 210
756
∴ Moles of C15H 30 =
210
From equation you can see,

45
1 mole of C15H 30 react with mole of O2

∴ From moles of C15H 3015× moles of CO2 formed
210 210

is (NA = 6.02 × 10 mol )
(Nearest Integer)
[25-Jun-2022-Shift-1]

Answer: 5418

Solution:

Molar mass of C7H5N3O6

= 12 × 7 + 5 + 14 × 3 + 16 × 6
= 227 gm
Given mass of C7H5N3O6 = 681 gm
681
∴ Moles of C7H 5N 3O6 = =3
227
In one molecule of C7H 5N 3O6, 3N atoms present.
∴ In 1 mole C7H 5N 3O6, 3 moles of N atoms presents.
∴ In 3 moles of C7H 5N 3O6, 3 × 3 = 9 moles of N atoms presents.
We know, 1 mole of N atoms = 6.02 × 1023N atoms.
∴9 moles of N atoms = 9 × 6.02 × 1023 = 54.18 × 1023 = 5418 × 1021

(N A = 6.022 × 1023)
[20 Jul 2021 Shift 1]

Answer: 226

Solution:

We known that no. of moles = V litre × Molarity & No. of millimoles = V ml × Molarity
so millimoles of N aOH = 250 × 0.5 = 125
Millimoles of H Cl = 500 × 1 = 500
Now reaction is
N aOH + H Cl → N aCl + H 2O
t=0 125 500 0 0
t=t 0 375 125 125
so millimoles of H Cl left = 375
Moles of H Cl = 375 × 10−3
No. of HCl molecules = 6.022 × 1023 × 375 × 10−3

Options:
A. 25mL

B. 75mL

C. 50mL

Answer: A

Solution:

Solution:
25mL of H Cl solution requires 30mL of 0.1M
N a2CO3 solution.
∵N 1V 1 = N 2V 2
∴25 × N 1 = 30 × 0.2( 0.1M N a2CO3 = 0.2N N a2CO3 )

Now, HCl solution is titrated with N aOH solution.
M 1V 1 = M 2V 2; 0.24N H Cl = 0.24M H Cl

Answer: C

Solution:

Solution:
Let the weight of acetic acid initially be w1 in 50mL of 0.060N solution.

N =
w1 × 1000
M . wt⋅ × 50
(
Normality = 0.06N )
w1 × 1000
0.06 =

0.06 × 60 × 50
⇒w1 = = 0.18g = 180mg
1000
After an hour, the strength of acetic acid = 0.042N
so, let the weight of acetic acid be w2
w2 × 1000
N =
60 × 50
W 2 × 1000
0.042 =

⇒w2 = 0.126g = 126mg
So amount of acetic acid adsorbed per 3g

C. BaCl 2H 2O

D. BaCl 2−2H 2O

Answer: D

Solution:

Solution:
Weight of hydrated BaCl 2 = 61g
Weight of anhydrous BaCl 2 = 52g
Loss in mass = 9g
Assuming BaCl 2xH 2O as hydrate
Mass of H 2O = 9g

Thus, × 100 = 14.75
208 + 18x
On solving x = 2
Hence, the formula of hydrated salt is BaCl 2.2H 2O

Question126
In Carius method of estimation of halogens, 250mg of an organic
compound gave 141mg of AgBr. The percentage of bromine in the
compound is :
(at. mass Ag = 108; Br = 80 )
[2015]
Options:

A. 48

B. 60

C. 24

D. 36

Answer: C

Solution:

Solution:

Mass of AgBr = 141mg = 0.141g
1 mole of AgBr = 1g atom of Br
188g of AgBr = 80g of Br
∴ 188g of AgBr contain bromine = 80g
0.141 g of AgBr contain bromine

Options:

A. 3 : 1 : 2

B. 1 : 1 : 2

C. 3 : 1 : 1

D. 1 : 1 : 1

Answer: D

Solution:

Solution:
O3 molecular weight = 16 + 16 + 16 = 48g ∕ mol
It means weight of 1mol of O3 is 48g and in 1mol of O3 we have 3 atoms of Oxygen
In 48g of O3, number of atoms of oxygen = 3
so in 16g of O3, number of atoms of oxygen = (3 ∕ 48) × 16 = 1
CO molecular weight = 12 + 16 = 28g ∕ mol
It means weight of 1 mol of CO is 28g and in 1 mol of CO we have 1 atom of Oxygen
so in 28g of CO, number of atoms of oxygen = 1
O2 molecular weight = 12 + 16 = 32g ∕ mol
It means weight of 1 mol of O2 is 32g and in 1mol of O2 we have 2 atoms of Oxygen
In 32g of O2, number of atoms of oxygen = 2
so in 16g of O2, number of atoms of oxygen = (2 ∕ 32) × 16 = 1
So answer is 1:1:1

To neutralise completely 20mL of 0.1M aqueous solution of
phosphorous acid (H 3PO3), the value of 0.1M aqueous KOH solution
required is
[2004]
Options:

A. 40mL

B. 20mL

C. 10mL

D. 60mL

Answer: A
Solution:

Solution:
The neutralization reaction is H3PO3 + 2 KOH → K2HPO3 + 2H2O.
Phosphorus acid is diprotic acid as it has two ionizable hydrogens. Thus, 1 mole of phosphorous acid will neutralize 2
moles of KOH.
1
The number of moles of phosphorus acid present in 20 mL of 0.1M aqueous solution is 0.1 × 20× = 0.002 mol.
1000
They will neutralize 2 × 0.002 mol = 0.004 moles of KOH.
The molarity of KOH solution is 0.1M.
0.004
The volume of KOH solution required will be = 0.04L = 40 ml.
0.1

Question153
25mL of a solution of barium hydroxide on titration with a 0.1 molar
solution of hydrochloric acid gave a litre value of 35mL. The molarity of
barium hydroxide solution was
[2003]
Options:

A. 0.14

B. 0.28

C. 0.35

D. 0.07

Answer: D

Solution:
Ba(OH )2 H Cl
N 1V 1 = N 2V 2
N 1 × 25 = 0.1 × 35
N 1 = 0.14
Since, Ba(OH )2 is diacid base
N
Hence N = M × 2 or M =
2
M = 0.07M

Question154
What volume of hydrogen gas, at 273K and 1atm. pressure will be
consumed in obtaining 21.6g of elemental boron (atomic mass = 10.8 )
from the reduction of boron trichloride by hydrogen ?
[2003]
Options:

A. 67.2L
B. 44.8L

C. 22.4L

D. 89.6 L

Answer: A

Solution:

2BCl 3 + 3H 2 → 2B + 6H Cl
3
or BCl 3 + H 2 → B + 3H Cl
2
Now, since 10.8g boron requires hydrogen
3
= × 22.4L at S . T . P
2
Hence 21.6 boron requires hydrogen
3 22.4
= × × 21.6 = 67.2L at S . T . P.
2 10.8

Question155
With increase of temperature, which of these changes?
[2002]
Options:

A. molality

B. weight fraction of solute

C. molarity

D. mole fraction.

Answer: C

Solution:

Solution:
Among all the given options, molarity changes with temperature because the term molarity involves volume which
increases on increasing temperature.

Question156
Number of atoms in 558.5 gram F e (at. wt. of F e = 55.85gmol −1 ) is
[2002]
Options:

A. twice that in 60g carbon

22
B. 6.023 × 10
C. half that in 8g He
23
D. 558.5 × 6.023 × 10

Answer: A

Solution:

Solution:
558.5
F e( N o. of moles ) = = 10mol
55.85
C (No. of moles) in 60g of C = 60 ∕ 12 = 5mol .

Question157
In a compound C, H and N atoms are present in 9 : 1 : 3.5 by weight.
Molecular weight of compound is 108 . Molecular formula of compound
is
[2002]
Options:

A. C2H 6N 2

B. C3H 4N

C. C6H 8N 2

D. C9H 12N 3.

Answer: C

Solution:

Empirical formula = C3H 4N

(C3H 4N )n = 108
(12 × 3 + 4 × 1 + 14)n = 108
108
(54)n = 108 n = =2
54
∴ Molecular formula = C6H 8N 2
