10.0 dm3 of water was added to 2.0 mol dm-3 of 2.5dm3 solution of HCl. What is the concentration of the final solution in mol dm-3?
A
0.4
B
8.0
C
2.0
D
0.5
correct option: a
C1V1 = C2V2

C2 = \(\frac{C_1V_1}{V_2}\)

= \(\frac{2.0 \times 2.5}{12.5}\)

= 0.4mol/dm-3

Calculate the volume in cm3 of oxygen evolved as s.t.p. when a current of 5 A is passed through acidified water for 193s
{F = 96500 Cmol-1, Molar volume of a gas at s.t.p. = 22.4 dm3}
A
224.000 dm3
B
0.056 dm3
C
0.224 dm3
D
56.000 dm3
correct option: b
Q = 1 x t \(\implies\) Q = (5 x 193)C
Q = 965C
40H \(\implies\) 2H2O + O2 + 4e

4 X 96500C evolve 22.4 dm3 x 965
4 x 96500 = 0.056 dm3
