SRP: $\quad E _{ Zn ^{2+} / 2 n }^{\circ}\,<\, E _{ Fe ^{2+} / Fe }^{\circ}\,<\, E _{ Cu ^{2+} / au }^{\circ}\,<\, E _{ Ag ^{+} / Ag }^{\circ}$

Reactivity order: $Zn \,>\, Fe\, >\, Cu\, >\, Ag$

In case of displacement reaction, more reactive metals (lower SRP) can displace less reactive metals (higher SRP) from their salt solution.

$CuSO _{4( aq )}+2 Ag _{( s )} \rightarrow Cu _{( s )}+ Ag _{2} SO _{4( aq )}$

Reaction is not possible as $Ag$ is less reactive metal compare to $Cu$.

The weight of silver (at. wt. $= 108$) displaced by a quantity of electricity which displaces $5600\,mL$ of $O_2$ at $STP$ will be ............ $g.$
  • A
    $5.4$
  • B
    $10.8$
  • C
    $54.0$
  • $108.0$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$108.0$
d
since, $22400 \mathrm{mL}$ volume is occupied by 1 mole of

$O_{2}$ at $STP$

Thus, $5600 \mathrm{mL} O_{2}$ means $=\frac{5600}{22400} \mathrm{mol} O_{2}$

$=\frac{1}{4} m o l O_{2}$

$\therefore$ Weight of $\mathrm{O}_{2}=\frac{1}{4} \times 32=8 \mathrm{g}$

According to problem,

Equivalents of $\mathrm{Ag}=$ Equivalents of $\mathrm{O}_{2}$

$\begin{array}{l} {=\frac{\text {Weight of } A g}{\text {Equivalent wor}} \mathrm{Ag}} \\ {=\frac{\mathrm{W}_{O_{2}}}{\text { Equivalent weight of } O_{2}}} \end{array}$

$\frac{W_{A g}}{\frac{M_{g}}{1}}=\frac{W_{O_{2}}}{\frac{M_{0_{2}}}{4}}$

$\therefore \quad \frac{W_{A g}}{108} \times 1=\frac{8}{32} \times 4$

$\left[\because 2 H_{2} O \rightarrow O_{2}+4 H^{+}+4 e^{-}\right]$

$\Rightarrow \quad W_{A g}=108 g$
