The number of atoms of oxygen present in 11.2 litre of oxygen gas at NTP will have (a) 12×6.023×1023\frac12\times6.023\times10^{23} (b) 2×6.023×10232\times6.023\times10^{23} (c) 6.023×1026.023\times10^{2} (d) 1.6×10241.6\times10^{24}

Answer

(a) 12×6.023×1023\frac12\times6.023\times10^{23}

At NTP, 22.4 L of gas is 1 mole, so 11.2 L is 0.5 mol, which contains 0.5×6.023×10230.5\times6.023\times10^{23} molecules of O2O_2. This is the option that matches the 0.5 mol of gas. Strictly, 11.2 L of O2O_2 holds 6.023×10236.023\times10^{23} oxygen atoms (2 atoms per molecule), a value that is not listed.

The oxidation number of sulphur in H2SO4H_2SO_4 will be (a) 8 (b) 7 (c) 6 (d) 4.5

Answer

(c) 6

Let the oxidation number of S be xx: 2(+1)+x+4(−2)=02(+1)+x+4(-2)=0, so x=+6x=+6.

The equivalent weight of KMnO4KMnO_4 in basic medium is (a) Mol wt/6 (b) Mol wt/5 (c) Mol wt/3 (d) Mol wt/1

Answer

(d) Mol wt/1

In basic medium, MnO4−+e−→MnO42−MnO_4^-+e^-\to MnO_4^{2-}, a change of 1 electron per formula unit. So the equivalent weight is molecular weight/1.

100cc of centimolar H2SO4H_2SO_4, 50 ml of decimolar HCl and 500cc of 0.012 molar KOH is mixed, the resultant solution will be (a) acidic (b) basic (c) neutral (d) amphoteric

Answer

(a) acidic

Moles of H+H^+ from H2SO4H_2SO_4: 100×0.01×2=2100\times0.01\times2=2 mmol.

Moles of H+H^+ from HCl: 50×0.1=550\times0.1=5 mmol.

Total H+=7H^+=7 mmol.

Moles of OH−OH^- from KOH: 500×0.012=6500\times0.012=6 mmol.

Since 7>67>6, 1 mmol of H+H^+ is left over, so the solution is acidic.

A young boy requires 12000 KJ energy per day. The amount of energy evolved from 1 mole of glucose is 2808 KJ. What weight of glucose he needs for a week? (a) 769.64 gms (b) 2.694 kg (c) 5.39 kg (d) 10.78 kg

Answer

(c) 5.39 kg

Energy for a week: 12000×7=8400012000\times7=84000 kJ.

moles of glucose=840002808=29.91\text{moles of glucose}=\frac{84000}{2808}=29.91

mass=29.91×180≈5385 g≈5.39 kg\text{mass}=29.91\times180\approx5385\text{ g}\approx5.39\text{ kg}
