Q43
Concentrated aqueous sulphuric acid is 98% H 2 SO 4 by mass and has a density of 1.80 g mL -1 . Volume of acid required to make one litre of 0.1 M H 2 SO 4 solution is
A 16.65 mL
B 22.20 mL
C 5.55 mL
D 11.10 mL
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Normality =

98×1.8×1049{{98 \times 1.8 \times 10} \over {49}}

= 36 N N 2 = 0.1 ×\times 2 = 0.2 N N 2 V 2 = N 1 V 1 \Rightarrow 36 ×\times V = 0.2 ×\times 1000 \Rightarrow V =

0.2×100036{{0.2 \times 1000} \over {36}}

= 5.55 mL

Q44
An element, X has the following isotopic composition: 200 X : 90% 199 X : 8.0% 202 X : 2.0% The weighted average atomic mass of the naturally occuring element X is closest to
A 201 amu
B 202 amu
C 199 amu
D 200 amu
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Average isotope mass of X =

200×90+199×8+202×290+8+2{{200 \times 90 + 199 \times 8 + 202 \times 2} \over {90 + 8 + 2}}

=

18000+1592+404100{{18000 + 1592 + 404} \over {100}}

= 199.96 a.m.u \approx 200 a.m.u

Q45
The mole fraction of the solute in one molal aqueous solution is
A 0.009
B 0.018
C 0.027
D 0.036
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

One molal solution means one mole solute present in 1 kg (1000 g) solvent. \therefore mole of solute = 1 Mole of solvent (H 2 O) =

100018{{1000} \over {18}}

X solute =

11+100018{1 \over {1 + {{1000} \over {18}}}}

= 0.018

Q46
The maximum number of molecules is present in
A 15 L of H 2 gas at STP
B 5 L of N 2 gas at STP
C 0.5 g of H 2 gas
D 10 g of O 2 gas
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

At STP, 22.4 L H 2 = 6.023 ×\times 10 23 molecules 15 L H 2 =

6.023×1023×1522.4{{6.023 \times {{10}^{23}} \times 15} \over {22.4}}

=

4.033×10234.033 \times {10^{23}}

5 L N 2 =

6.023×1023×522.4{{6.023 \times {{10}^{23}} \times 5} \over {22.4}}

= 1.344 ×\times 10 23 2 g of H 2 = 6.023 ×\times 10 23 0.5 g H 2 =

6.023×1023×0.52{{6.023 \times {{10}^{23}} \times 0.5} \over {2}}

= 1.505 ×\times 10 23 32 g O 2 = 6.023 ×\times 10 23 10 g O 2 =

6.023×1023×1032{{6.023 \times {{10}^{23}} \times 10} \over {32}}

= 1.882 ×\times 10 23

Q47
2.5 litre of 1 M NaOH solution is mixed with another 3 litre of 0.5 M NaOH solution. Then find out molarity of resultant solution.
A 0.80 M
B 1.0 M
C 0.73 M
D 0.50 M
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

From molarity equation M 1 V 1 + M 2 V 2 = MV \Rightarrow 1× 2.5 + 0.5 × 3 = M × 5.5 \Rightarrow M =

45.5{4 \over {5.5}}

= 0.73M

Q49
Which has maximum molecules?
A 7 g N 2
B 2 g H 2
C 16 g NO 2
D 16 g O 2
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

1 mole = 6.023 ×\times 10 23 number of molecules. 1 g mole of O 2 = 32 g of O 2 \Rightarrow 16 g of O 2 = 0.5 g mole of O 2 1 g mole of N 2 = 28 g of N 2 \Rightarrow 7 g of N 2 = 0.25 g mole of N 2 1 g mole of H 2 = 2 g of H 2 \Rightarrow 2 g of H 2 = 1 g mole of H 2 1 g of NO 2 = 14 + 16 ×\times 2 = 46 \Rightarrow 16 g of NO 2 = 0.35 mole NO 2

Q50
Specific volume of cylinfrical virus particle is 6.02 × \times 10 -2 cc/g whose radius and length are 7 A\mathop A\limits^ \circ and 10 A\mathop A\limits^ \circ respectively. If NA = 6.02 × \times 10 23 , find molecular weight of virus.
A 15.4 kg/mol
B 1.54 × \times 10 4 kg/mol
C 3.08 × \times 10 4 kg/mol
D 3.08 × \times 10 3 kg/mol
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

Specific volume ( vol. of 1 g) cylindrical virus particle = 6.02 ×\times 10 -2 cc/g Radius of virus, r = 7 Å = 7 ×\times 10 -8 cm Volume of virus =

πr2l\pi {r^2}l

=

227×(7×108)×10×108{{22} \over 7} \times (7 \times {10^{ - 8}}) \times 10 \times {10^{ - 8}}

= 154 ×\times 10 -23 cc wt. of one virus particle =

VolumeSpecificVolume{{Volume} \over {Specific\,\,Volume}}

\Rightarrow

1.54×10236.02×102g{{1.54 \times {{10}^{ - 23}}} \over {6.02 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}}}g

\therefore Molecular wt of virus = wt. of N A particle =

1.54×10236.02×102×6.02×1023g/mol{{1.54 \times {{10}^{ - 23}}} \over {6.02 \times {{10}^{ - 2}}}} \times 6.02 \times 10^{-23} \,\,g/mol

= 15400 g/mol = 15.4 kg/mol
