MCQ
On dissolving sugar in water at room temperature solution feels cool to touch. Under which of the following cases dissolution of sugar will be most rapid?
  • A
    Sugar crystals in cold water.
  • B
    Sugar crystals in hot water.
  • C
    Powdered sugar in cold water.
  • D
    Powdered sugar in hot water.

Answer

  1. Powdered sugar in hot water.

Explanation:

Since the solution is cool to touch, the dissolution is endothermic. Therefore, high temperature will favour dissolution. Further, powdered sugar has large surface area and is favourable for dissolution.

Consider the following single step reaction in gas phase at constant temperature.

$2 \mathrm{~A}_{(\mathrm{g})}+\mathrm{B}_{(\mathrm{g})} \rightarrow \mathrm{C}_{(\mathrm{g})}$

The initial rate of the reaction is recorded as $r_1$ when the reaction starts with $1.5 \mathrm{~atm}$ pressure of $\mathrm{A}$ and $0.7 \mathrm{~atm}$ pressure of B. After some time, the rate $r_2$ is recorded when the pressure of $C$ becomes $0.5 \mathrm{~atm}$. The ratio $r_1: r_2$ is $\qquad$ $\times 10^{-1}$.
