Group B: Short Answer Questions
Attempts all the Questions:
1. 20cm3 of a solution containing 7g/dm3 of metal
hydroxide, XOH, were exactly neutralized with 25cm3
of 0.10M hydrochloric acid.
i) Write balanced chemical equation for the neutralization of the metal
hydroxide, XOH, with hydrochloric acid.
ii)Calculate the concentration of the metal hydroxide in moles per
dm3?
iii) Calculate molar mass of XOH.
iv) Identify element X.
Solution:
i) The balanced chemical equation for the neutralization of metal
hydroxide, XOH, with hydrochloric acid, HCl, is:
XOH + HCl → XCl + H2O
ii)
Number of moles of HCl used = 0.10 M x 0.025 dm3 = 0.0025 moles
From the balanced chemical equation,
1 mole of XOH reacts with 1 mole of HCl.
Therefore, number of moles of XOH = 0.0025 moles
Volume of solution used = 20/1000 dm3 = 0.02 dm3
Concentration of XOH in moles per dm3 = 0.0025 moles / 0.02
dm3 = 0.125 mol/dm3
Therefore, the concentration of the metal hydroxide XOH in the solution
is 0.125 mol/dm3.

2. This question related to thermodynamics.
a. How is free energy change of a reaction related to enthalpy change and
entropy change?
b. Calculate the enthalpy of formation of ethane at 298K, if the enthalpies
of the combustion of C, H and C2H5 are -94.14, -68.47
and -373.3Kcal, respectively.
Solution:
(a)
The free energy change of a reaction (ΔG) is related to the enthalpy change
(ΔH) and entropy change (ΔS) by the equation:
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
where T is the temperature in Kelvin. This equation is known as the
Gibbs-Helmholtz equation.
If ΔG is negative, the reaction is spontaneous and can proceed in the
forward direction. If ΔG is positive, the reaction is non-spontaneous and
will proceed in the reverse direction. If ΔG is zero, the reaction is at
equilibrium.

Group C: Long Question
9. (a) Consider the reaction,
2Ag+ + Cd → 2Ag + Cd2+
The standard electrodes potentials for Ag+ →
Ag and Cd+2→Cd couples are 0.80V and -0.40V, respectively.
i. What is the standard potential E0 for this
reaction?
ii. For the electrochemical cell in which this reaction
takes place which electrode is negative electrode?
(b) How is single electrode potential originated?
(c) Heat of combustion of compound are given as:
CH4 |
-210Kcl |
C |
-94Kcal |
H2 |
-68Kcal |
Calculate the heat of formation of CH4.
Solution:
(a) i. The standard
potential for the given reaction can be calculated using the formula:
E0 = E0(reduction) - E0(oxidation)
E0(reduction) is the standard reduction potential
for the reduction half-reaction and E0(oxidation) is the standard
oxidation potential for the oxidation half-reaction.
The balanced oxidation half-reaction is:
Cd → Cd2+ + 2e-
The balanced reduction half-reaction is:
Ag+ + e- → Ag
The standard potential for the reduction half-reaction is
given as 0.80V (E0(Ag+ → Ag)) and for the oxidation half-reaction is
-0.40V (E0(Cd → Cd2+ + 2e-)).
Therefore, the standard potential for the given reaction is:
E0 = 0.80V - (-0.40V) = 1.20V
ii. The electrode with a more negative standard reduction
potential will act as the negative electrode.
From the given standard electrode potentials, we can see
that the standard reduction potential for Cd2+ → Cd is more negative
than that of Ag+ → Ag. Therefore, Cd electrode will act as the
negative electrode.
(b)
We Know:
Heat of Combustion of Carbon = -94Kcal
Heat of Combustion of Hydrogen = -68Kcal
Reaction for formation of methane: C+2H2⟶CH4
To calculate the heat of formation of CH4, we
need to use the following equation:
ΔHreaction=∑ΔHCombustion of Product−∑ΔHCobustion
of Reactant
=-94+ 2(-68)-(-210)
=-20Kcal
Thus, Heat of formation of Methane = -20Kcal.

(a) Equal volumes of 0.02 M AgNO3 and 0.02M HCN were mixed. Calculate [Ag+] at equilibrium given: Ksp=2.2×10-15 Ka (HCN) = 6.2×10-10
(b) A solution contains a mixture of Ag+ (0.1M)
and Hg2+2 (0.1M) which are to be separated by selective
precipitation. Calculate the maximum concentration of iodide ion at which one
of them gets precipitated almost completely. What percentage of that metal ion
is precipitated?
Ksp(AgI) = 8.5 ×10-17, Ksp
(Hg2I2) = 2.5 ×10-26
Solution:
(a)
(b) [I−] required to
precipitate Ag+ and Hg22+ are
derived as:
For AgI:
[Ag+][I−]=KspAgI;[0.1][I−]=8.5×10−17;[I−]=8.5×10−16M.......(i)
For Hg2I2:
[Hg22+][I−]2=KspHg2I2;[0.1][I−]2=2.5×10−26;[I−]=5×10−13M........(ii)
[I−] required to precipitate AgI are
lesser than that required to precipitate Hg2I2 and
thus, precipitation of AgI will take place first. It will continue
till the [I−] becomes 5×10−13 when Hg2I2 begins
to precipitate and thus,
Maximum [I−] for AgI preicipitation =5×10−13M.
Also [Ag+]left at this concentration of [I−] can
be evaluated as:
[Ag+]left [I−]=${{K_{s{p_{AgI}}}}}$
[Ag+]=$\frac{{{K_{s{p_{AgI}}}}}}{{\left[ {{I^ -
}} \right]}} = \frac{{8.5 \times {{10}^{ - 17}}}}{{5 \times {{10}^{ - 13}}}}$=1.7×10−4M
∵ 0.1M Ag+ will left =1.7×10−4M Ag+ in
solution
∴ %
of Ag+ left =$\frac{{1.7 \times {{10}^{ - 4}} \times
100}}{{0.1}}$=0.17%M Ag+
∴ %
of Ag precipitated =100−0.17=99.83%

(b) Why NH2 group of aniline is protected
before nitration?
(c)Write a product which is obtained by the reduction of
acetic anhydride.
Solution:
(a)
(b)
To prevent unwanted side reactions and to ensure selective nitration at the ortho and/or para positions. Aniline contains a reactive amino group (-NH2) that can react with nitric acid during the nitration reaction, leading to the formation of undesirable by-products. For example, the amino group can be nitrated, leading to the formation of di- and tri-nitroanilines instead of mono-nitroanilines. These by-products are difficult to separate from the desired product and can reduce the overall yield of the reaction.
