0.4 gm of an organic compound was treate...

0.4 gm of an organic compound was treated according to Kjeldahl's method. The ammonia evolved was absorbed in 50 ml or `0.5MH_3PO_3`. The residual acid required 30 ml of `0.5MCa(OH)_2` Find the percentage of `N_2` in the compound.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here `H_3PO_3` is dibasec (i.e., `n=2)`
The nomalities of `H_3PO_3=Mxxn=0.5xx2=1N`.
mEq. Of `H_3PO_3=50xx0.5xx2=50`
mEq. Of `Ca(OH)_2=30xx0.5xx2=30`
Exess of acid used to neutraloise `NH_3=50-30=20`
percentage of `N_2`
`=(1.4xxmEq." of acid used to n eutralise "NH_3)/("weight of compound")`
`=(1.4xx20)/(0.4)=70%`

The residual acid required 60 mL of 0.5 M solution of NaOH for neutralization. Find the percentage composition of nitrogen in the compound. Strategy: Step 1 . Convert molarity into normality using the relation Normality (N) = n xx Molarity (M) where n factor is either the acidity of base or basicity of acid. Step 2 . Calculate the milliequivalents of NaOH which is equal to the milliequivalents of unreacted H_(2)SO_(4) . Step 3 . Calculate the milliequivalents of total H_(2)SO_(4) and subtract the milliequivalents of unreacted H_(2)SO_(4) to get the milliequivalents of NH_(3) evolved. Step 4 . Calculate the equivalents of NH_(3) , moles of NH_(3) , and moles of N . Step 5 . Calculate the mass of N in the organic compound. Step 6 . Finally, calculate % of N or directly apply Eq. (13.8) or (13.9) to get the % of N in the organic compound.
