The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate the three statements regarding Mohr's salt and determine their truth values. ### Step 1: Evaluate Statement 1 **Statement 1:** Equivalent weight of Mohr salt is \( \frac{M}{4} \), where \( M \) is the molecular weight. - **Explanation:** The equivalent weight of a salt can be calculated using the formula: \[ \text{Equivalent weight} = \frac{\text{Molecular weight}}{\text{N-factor}} \] For salts, the N-factor is the total positive charge contributed by the cations in the salt. Mohr's salt (ammonium iron(II) sulfate) has the formula \( \text{NH}_4\text{FeSO}_4 \cdot 6\text{H}_2\text{O} \). - **Determining the total positive charge:** - The ammonium ion (\( \text{NH}_4^+ \)) contributes a charge of +1. Since there are two ammonium ions, they contribute \( 2 \times 1 = +2 \). - The iron ion (\( \text{Fe}^{2+} \)) contributes a charge of +2. Therefore, the total positive charge is: \[ +2 \text{ (from NH}_4^+\text{)} + +2 \text{ (from Fe}^{2+}\text{)} = +4 \] - **Calculating the equivalent weight:** \[ \text{Equivalent weight} = \frac{M}{4} \] Thus, **Statement 1 is true.** ### Step 2: Evaluate Statement 2 **Statement 2:** Mohr salt contains only one metallic cation, i.e., \( \text{Fe}^{2+} \). - **Explanation:** Mohr's salt contains two cations: - Ammonium ion (\( \text{NH}_4^+ \)) - Iron ion (\( \text{Fe}^{2+} \)) Since there are two cations present, **Statement 2 is false.** ### Step 3: Evaluate Statement 3 **Statement 3:** Equivalent weight of a salt = \( \frac{\text{Molecular weight}}{\text{Total positive charge}} \). - **Explanation:** This is the same formula we used to calculate the equivalent weight in Statement 1. The equivalent weight is indeed calculated as: \[ \text{Equivalent weight} = \frac{M}{\text{Total positive charge}} \] Since this statement accurately reflects the formula, **Statement 3 is true.** ### Conclusion - **Statement 1:** True - **Statement 2:** False - **Statement 3:** True The correct answer is **Option C: True, False, True.** ---
