10.0 dm3 of air containing H2S as an impurity was passed through a solution of Pb(NO3)2 until all the H2S had reacted. The precipitate of PbS was found to weigh 5.02 g. According to the equation:

Pb(NO3)2 + H2S → PbS + 2HNO3 the percentage by volume of hydrogen sulphide in the air is?



(Pb = 207, S = 32, GMV at s.t.p = 22.4dm3)
A
50.2
B
47.0
C
4.70
D
0.47
correct option: c
Pb(NO3)2 + H2S → PbS + 2HNO3
34 g H2S → 239 g pbs
5.02g pbs → (34)/(237g) χ 5.02 g = 0.714 g
34g → 22.4 dm3
=0.714 → (22.4)/34g) χ 100 = 4.70

The solubility in moles per dm3 of 20g of CuSO4 dissolve in 100 of water at 180°C is?

(Cu = 63.5, S = 32, O = 16)
A
0.13
B
0.25
C
1.25
D
2.00
correct option: c
Solubility in moles per dm3

No of moles = (20)/(159.5) χ 0.125 moles

in 100 g of moles = (0.125)/(100) χ 1000 = 1.25 moles

Na2C2O4 + CaCl2 → CaC2O4 + 2NaCl. Given a solution of 1.9g of sodium oxalate in 50g of water at room temperature, calculate the minimum volume of 0.1 M calcium oxalate using the above equation?
A
1.40 χ 102 dm3
B
14.0 χ 102 cm3
C
1.40 χ 10-2 dm-2
D
14.0 χ 10-2 cm3
correct option: a
Na2C2O4 + CaCl2 → CaC2O4 + 2NaCl

molar mass of Na2C2O4 = 134

molarity in 1000g H2O = (1.9)/(134) = 0.014 m

but in 502 g mole = (0.014)/(50) χ 1000 = 0.28 m

M1V1 = M2V2
V2 = (M1V1)/(M2) = (0.28 χ 50)/(0.1) = 140
= 1.40 χ 102 dm3

2.0g of a monobasic acid was made up to 250 cm3 with distilled water. 25.00 cm3 of this solution required 20.00cm3 of 0.1 M NaOH solution for complete neutralization. The molar mass of the acid is?
A
200 g
B
160 g
C
100 g
D
50 g
correct option: c
Ma = (MbVb)/(Va) = (0.1 m χ 20 cm3)/(25cm) = 0.08 m

M = (concentration in g/dm3)/(m) = (8)/(0.08) = 100 g
