- NH4Cl reacts with NaOH. The excess of NaOH is utilized by H2SO4.
Meq. of NaOH initially taken = 100 × 0.8 = 80
Meq. of NaOH left after reaction = Meq. of H2SO4 = 12.5 × 0.75 = 9.375
∴ Meq. of NaOH used for NH4Cl = 80 – 9.375 = 70.625
∴ Meq. of NH4Cl = 70.625
× 1000 = 70.625

Meq. of alkali used for SO2 and H2O2 = 0.66
Weight of alkali used = = 0.0264
80 gm of NaOH reacts with 64 gm of SO2
∴ 0.0264 gm of NaOH reacts = = 0.021 gm SO2
∴ 64 gm SO2 required = 32 gm S

Now, since on heating KClO3, O2 will escape out, the substances as residue are KCl produced by reactions (i) of (ii) and KClO4.
Weight of residue = 0.3260 + 0.3937 + 0.0705 = 0.7902 gm
∴ % of KClO4 in residue = × 100 = 49.8%

- This problem can be done by two methods.
In the first method, we break up Fe3O4 as an equimolar mixture of FeO and Fe2O3.
Method (1)
Fe3O4 is FeO. Fe2O3
Equivalents of Na2S2O3 = = 7.2 × 10-3
Equivalents of I2 in 10 cc = 7.2 × 10-3
Equivalents of I2 in 50 cc = 7.2 × 10-3 × 5 = 3.6 × 10-2
Since equivalents of I2 is equal to that of KI which in turn is equal to the total equivalents of Fe2O3 (Fe2O3 in the free state and Fe2O3 combined with FeO).
∴ equivalents of total Fe2O3 = 3.6 × 10-2
Equivalents of KMnO4 solution = = 2.1 × 10-2
Since KMnO4 reacts with the total Fe2+ (Fe2+ in FeO and Fe2+ that was produced by the action of KI on Fe2O3)
∴ equivalents of total Fe+2 in 50 mL = 2.1 × 10-2 × 2 = 4.2 × 10-2
Since equivalents of Fe2+ produced from Fe2O3 is equal to the equivalents of Fe2O3
∴ Equivalents of FeO = 4.2 × 10-2 – 3.6 × 10-2
= 6 × 10-3
∴ moles of FeO = 6 × 10-3
moles of Fe2O3 combined with FeO = 6 × 10-3
total moles of Fe2O3 =
(because when Fe2O3 → Fe2+ ‘n’ factor is 2).
= 1.8 × 10-2
moles of Fe2O3 in the free state = 1.8 × 10−2 – 6 × 10−3
= 1.2 × 10-2
mass of Fe3O4 = 6 × 10-3 × 232 = 1.392 g
mass of Fe2O3 = 1.2 × 10-2 × 160 = 1.92 g
percentage Fe3O4 = 17.4%
percentage of Fe2O3 = 24%
Method 2:
Here we take Fe3O4 as a single entity.
Equivalents of Na2S2O3 = = 7.2 × 10-3
Equivalents of I2 in 50 cc = 7.2 × 10-3 × 5 = 3.6 × 10-2
∴ Equivalents of Fe3O4 + Fe2O3 = 3.6 × 10-2
Let us assume that the moles of Fe3O4 is x and that of Fe2O3 is y. Since on reacting with KI both Fe3O4 and Fe2O3 give Fe2+ ‘n’ factor for both is two.
∴ 2x + 2y = 3.6 × 10-2 ——– (1)
Equivalents of KMnO4 = = 2.1×10-2
Equivalents of Fe2+ in 50 mL = 2.1 × 10-2 × 2 = 4.2 × 10-2
Moles of Fe2+ in 50 mL = 4.2 × 10-2
Since the moles of Fe3O4 are x, moles of Fe2+ produced from Fe3O4 will be 3x and that produced from Fe2O3 will be 2y.
∴ 3x + 2y = 4.2 × 10-2 ——— (2)
(2) – (1) gives x = 6 × 10-3 ∴ y = 1.2 × 10-2
Solving this, percentage of Fe3O4 is 17.4% and Fe2O3 is 23.75%.

Initial equivalents of Fe2+ =
Equivalents of Fe2+ consumed by MnO2 = 2.55 × 10−2 − 5 × 10−3 = 0.0205
∴ Equivalents of MnO2 = 0.0205
Moles of MnO2 =
Mass of MnO2 = 1.025 × 10−2 × 87 = 1.0875g
% MnO2 = = 72.5%

Meq. of Fe2+ in FeSO4 + Meq. of Fe2+ in FeC2O4 + Meq. of C2O42– = Meq. of KMnO4 used
∴x × 1 + y × 1 + y × 2 = 40 =
(Let millimole of FeSO4 and FeC2O4 be x & y respectively)
∴ x + 3y = …(1)
Meq. of Fe2+ in FeSO4 + Meq. of Fe2+ in FeC2O4 = Meq. of KMnO4 used
(Because after reduction of mixture only Fe2+ ions formed from Fe3+. Since CO2 escapes out in air
∴ x ×1 + y × 1 = 25 ×
∴ x + y = …(2)
By equation (1) + (2) x = , y =
∴ =

For FeCl3 Fe3+ + e ⎯→ Fe2+
For N2H6SO4 N22– ⎯→ N20 + 4e
For KMnO4 Mn7+ + 5e ⎯→ Mn2+
Meq. of N2H6SO4 in 10 ml solution = Meq. of FeCl3 reacting with N2H6SO4 = Meq. of Fe2+ formed = Meq. of KMnO4
∴ Meq. of N2H6SO4 in 10 ml = 20 × × 5 = 2
∴ × 4 × 1000 = 2
∴ W = 0.065
Weight of N2H6SO4 in 1000 ml = = 6.5 gm/lit

∴ = …(2)
Meq. of carbonate 1 + Meq. of carbonate (2) = Meq. of HCl
∴ × 1000 + = 44.4 × 0.5 …(3)
Solving equation (1), (2) and (3)
m = 23, a = 0.41 gm, b = 0.59 gm
Meq. of sulphates (M′2SO4 = Meq. of M′2CO3) = × 1000 = 11.08
= = 11.08, ∴ = 0.609 gm
Meq. of sulphate (M′2SO4) = Meq. of M″2CO3
∴ × 1000 = × 1000
∴ = 0.7902 gm
∴ Weight of sulphates = 0.6094 + 0.7902 = 1.3996 gm
- Let Weight of Na2CO3 = a gm
Weight of K2CO3 = b gm
a + b = 1 …(1)
Solution reacts with HCl to give chlorides which further react with AgNO3
For 250 ml solution, (Meq. of Na2CO3 + Meq. of K2CO3) = Meq. of HCl = Meq. of AgNO3.
∴ + = 20 × N ×
= 16.24 × 0.1 × …(2)
NHCl = 0.0812 = MHCl
Strength of HCl = 0.0812 × 36.5 gm/lit = 2.96gm/lt
From equation (1) and (2)
a = 0.4 gm
b = 0.6 gm
∴ % of K2CO3 = 60%
- The first point that is to be made clear here is about % (by mole) yield. If a reaction occurs with y% (by mole) yield, then it implies that the moles of product produced would be y% of the moles that would have been produced had the reaction gone with 100% (by mole) yield. Now let us assume that x L of C2H6 at STP would produce the desired amount of C4H10, then the moles of C2H6 would be =
The moles of C2H5Br that would have been produced with 100% (by mole) yield = [ C2H5Br and C2H6 are in the molar ratio of 1:1]
But the moles of C2H5Br actually produced =
Moles of C4H10 that would have been produced with 100% (by mole) yield
= [C2H5Br and C4H10 are in the molar ratio of 2:1]
But the moles of C4H10 that would be actually produced
=
∴ The mass of C4H10 produced =
This must be equal to 55 g.
∴
x = 55.5 L
- The First step towards solving any problem is to read the problem over and over again till you understand what is given and what is asked. In this problem we have to calculate a certain volume of AgNO3 solution that can precipitate all the chloride ions in any possible mixture with any composition.
This implies that we must find that combination which contains the maximum Cl− ions and find the volume of AgNO3 corresponding to that. This is because if this much volume of AgNO3 can precipitate all Cl– ions from the sample containing maximum chloride ions then it can precipitate all the Cl− ions from any other combination. Now the only confusion you may have is that when minimum volume is asked then why calculate the volume of AgNO3 solution for maximum Cl– ion. This would become clear in a moment.
Let us find out that combination that gives us the maximum moles of Cl−.
If we take pure cases, 0.3 g of each of the following has the following moles.
0.3 g of NaCl =
0.3 g of NH4Cl =
0.3 g of KCl = moles
So out of the pure cases, it is pure NH4Cl which has the maximum moles of Cl− ions. Let us take 0.3 g of NH4Cl and replace some of it with NaCl or KCl. If we take x gm of NH4Cl out and replace it with NaCl or KCl then we would be taking out moles of NH4Cl and replacing it with or moles of NaCl or KCl respectively. This clearly indicates that any contamination of the NH4Cl mixture would lead to a decrease in the moles of Cl−. Therefore it is pure NH4Cl which has the maximum moles of Cl−. For calculation of the volume of AgNO3 solution all we need to do is to equate the moles of AgNO3 with the moles of Cl− [when AgNO3 reacts with Cl− to give AgCl, it would react in a molar ratio of 1:1]
Moles of AgNO3 in volume Vml = V × 1.04 ×
[Note: Specific gravity is the ratio of density of a solution to the density of water at 4oC. Since the density of water at 4oC is 1 gm/cc, the sp. gravity of any solution also becomes its density in gm/cc].
Moles of Cl− in pure 0.3 g of NH4Cl =
∴ = V×1.04 ×
∴ V = 18.33 ml
Now, let us try to understand why we call it the minimum volume. It is clear that 18.33 ml of AgNO3 solution can precipitate all the Cl− from 0.3 g of NH4Cl and since this is the maximum Cl− content, this much volume of AgNO3 solution has sufficient Ag+ ions to precipitate all the Cl− from any other combination also. It can also be seen that any volume V such that V ≥ 18.33 ml can precipitate all the Cl− ions from any combination. Therefore the least volume that can be used to precipitate all the Cl− ions is 18.33 ml.

250 ml diluted tincture of iodine solution has

Thus moles of ClO3– 25 m solution = 0.0005
ClO3– is also reduced to Cl– by SO2
In first experiment and precipitated as AgCl
Thus Cl– formed from ClO3– = AgCl from ClO3– = 0.0005
Total AgCl formed both from actual and Cl– from ClO3– = 0.1435 gm

I2 + → + 2I–
This titration will give amount of Cu2+
25 mL of Cu2+ solution ≡ 5 mL of 0.01 M
≡ 5 mL of 0.01 N
∴ 25 × N (Cu2+) = 5 × 0.01 N
N (Cu2+) = 0.002
∴ Cu2+ in mineral = 0.002 × 63.5 gL–1
