A sample of calcium carbonate is 80% pure, 25 gm of this sample is treated with excess of HCl .How much volume of CO_(2) will be obtained from at 1 atm & 273 K ?

4.2 gm of carbonate of an alkaline earth metal is dissolved in excess of HCl solution by which 1.12L CO_(2) gas (measured at 273K and 1 atm) is evolved. If the pure metal crystallises as BCC crystal, then the only correct statement regarding the metal is: [N_(A) = 6 xx 10^(23)]

  • Alkali and alkaline earth metals along with hydrogen and helium constitute s-block elements . They have low ionization enthalpies and hence exhibit characteristic flame colouration . They have highly negative electrode potentials and hence are strong reducing agents . Their solutions in liquid ammonia are conducting and also act as strong reducing agents than hydrogen , they are usually prepared by electrolysis of their fused chlorides . Their oxides are basic and the basic strength increases down the group . The solubility of carbonates and sulphates of alkali and alkaline earth metals show opposite trends . The carbonates of alkaline earth metals and lithium carbonate decompose on heating while the carbonates of other alkali metals do not decompose on heating . The bicarbonates of both alkali and alkaline earth metals on heating give carbonates . The basic character of the oxides , MgO , SrO , K_(2)O , NiO and Cs_(2)O increases in the order :

  • Air sample from an industrial town, heavily polluted by CO_(2) was collected and analyzed . In one anaylsis , 56L of air measured at 1 atm and 273 K was passed through a 250 mL of 0.025 M NaOH solution , where CO_(2)(g) was absorbed completely . 25 mL of the above solution was then treated with excess of BaCl_(2) solution where all the carbonate was precipitated as BaCo_(3)(s) . The solution was filtered off and the filtrate required 25 mL of a 0.005 MHCl solution for neutralization. Weight (in milligrams ) of precipitate BaCO_(3)(s) obtained from the 25 ml of test solution was: [Atomic weight :Ba =137, C=12, O=16]

    A sample of magnisium metal containing some MgO as impurity was dissolved in 125 " mL of " 0.1 N H_2SO_4 . The volume of H_2 evolved at 27.3^@C and 1 atm was 120.1 mL. The resulting solution was found to be 0.02 N with respect to H_2SO_4 . Calculate (i) the weight of sample dissolved and (ii) the percentage by weight of Mg in the sample. Neglect any change in the volume of the solution (atomic weight of Mg=24.3 ).

    When an atom or an ion is missing from its nomal lattice site a lattice vacanecy (Schottky defect) is created. In stoichmeteric ionic crystals, a vacancy of one ion has to be accompanied by the vacancy of the oppositely charge ion in order to maintain electrical neutrality. In a Frenken defect an ion leaves its position in the lattice and occupies an interstitial void. This id the Frenkel defect commonly found along with the Schottky defects and interstitial. In pure alkali halides. Frenked defects are not found since the ions cannot get into the interstitial sites. Frenkel defects are found in silver halides because of the small size of the Ag^(+) ion. Unike Schottky defects, Frenkel defect do not change the density of the solids. in certain ionic solids (e.g., AgBr) both schottky and Frenkel defect occur. The Defects idiscussed above do not disturb the stoichiometery of the crystalline material. there is large variety of non-stoichiometric inorganic solids which contains an excess or deficienty of one of the elements. Such solids showing deviations from the ideal stoichiometric composition from an important group of solids. For example in the vanadium oxide, VO_(x),x can be anywehere between 0.6 and 1.3 there are solids such as difficult to prepare in the soichiometric omposition thus, the ideal composition in compounds such as FeO is difficult to obtain (normally we get a compositiion of Fe(0.95) O but it may range from Fe_(0.93) O to Fe_(0.96)O ). Non-stoichiometric behavious is most commonly found for transition metal compounds through is also known for some lathanoids and actinoids. Zinc oxide loses oxygen reversible at high temperature and turns yellow in colour. the excess metal is accomodated interstitial, giving rise to electrons trapped in the neighbourhood, the enchanced electrical conductivity of the non-stoichiometric ZnO arises from these electrons. Anion vacancies in alkali halides are produced by heating the alkali halid crystals in an atmosphere of the alkali metal vapour. when the metal atoms deposit on the surface they diffuse into the cystal and after ionisation the alkali metal ion occupies cationic vacancy whereas electron occupies anionic vacancy. Electrons trapped i anion vacancies are referred to as F-centers (From Farbe the German word for colouf) that gives rise to interesting colour in alkali halides. Thus, the excess of potassium i KCl makes the crystal appear violet and the excess of lithium in LiCl makes it pink. AgCl is crystallised from molten AgCl containing a little CdCl_(2) . The solid obtained will have:

    Iodine titrations: Compounds containing iodine are widely used in titrations, commonly known as iodine titration. It is of two kinds: (i) Iodometric titrations (ii) Iodimetric titrations. (i) Iodometric titrations: It is nothing but an indirect method of estimating the iodine. In this type of titration, an oxidising agent is made to react with excess of KI , in acidix medium or , basic medium in which I^(-) oxidises into I_(2) . Now the liberated I_(2) can be titrated with Na_(2)S_(2)O_(3) solution. KI overset("Oxidising Agent")rarr I_(2) overset("Na_(2)S_(2)O_(3)//H^(+))rarr I^(-)+Na_(2)S_(4)O_(6) Although solid I_(2) is black and insoluble in water, but it converts into soluble I_(3) ions {:(I_(2)(s)+I^(-) hArr, I_(3)^(-)),("Black","dark brown"):} Strach is used as indicator near the end point or equivalence point. Even small amount of I_(2) molecules, gives blue colour with strach. The completion of the reaction can be detected when blue colour disappears at the and point. In iodimetric titration, the strength of reducing agent is determined by reacting it with I_(2) . When 79.75g of CuSO_(4) sample containing inert impurity is reacted with KI , the liberated I_(2) is reacted with 50mL (1M) Na_(2)S_(2)O_(3) in basic medium, where it oxidises into SO_(4) ions, and I_(2) reduces into I^(-) , then what will be the % purity of CuSO_(4) in sample?

    Magnesium metal when burns in air gives a mixture of its nitride & oxide. When dissolved in water the solution becomes basis because of NH_(3) & metal hydroxide. 39.2 gm sample of pure magnesium is reacted with 82.1 litre of air (containing only N_(2) & O_(2) in 4:1 molar ratio) at 1 atm & 300 K to form a mixture of nitride & oxide labelled as micture I such that all magnesium & one of the gases get completely consumed. this mixture is dissolved in water which is labelled as micture II. based on this information, answer the questions that follows. which gas will be left unreacted in air & by how much ?

    The strength of H_(2)O_(2) is expressed in several ways like molarity, normality,% (w/V), volume strength, etc. The strength of "10 V" means 1 volume of H_(2)O_(2) on decomposition gives 10 volumes of oxygen at 1 atm and 273 K or 1 litre of H_(2)O_(2) gives 10 litre of O_(2) at 1 atm and 273 K The decomposition of H_(2)O_(2) is shown as under : H_(2)O_(2)(aq) to H_(2)O(l)+(1)/(2)O_(2)(g) H_(2)O_(2) can acts as oxidising as well as reducing agent. As oxidizing agent H_(2)O_(2) is converted into H_(2)O and as reducing agent H_(2)O_(2) is converted into O_(2) . For both cases its n-factor is 2. :.
