In Dumas' method for estimation of nitrogen, 0.5 gram of an organic compound gave 60 mL of nitrogen collected at 300 K temperature and 715 mm Hg pressure. The percentage composition of nitrogen in the compound (Aqueous tension at $300 \mathrm{~K}=15 \mathrm{~mm} \mathrm{Hg}$ ) is
  • A
    1.257
  • B
    20.87
  • C
    18.67
  • D
    12.57
Answer
D. 12.57
Pressure of $\mathrm{N}_{2}$ gas $=(715-15)$
$=700 \mathrm{mmHg}$
$\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{N}_{2}}=\frac{\mathrm{PV}}{\mathrm{RT}}$
$\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{N}_{2}}=\frac{700 \times 60 \times 10^{-3}}{760 \times 0.0821 \times 300}$
$\begin{aligned}=2.24 & \times 10^{-3} mol \\ \text { Mass of } N _2 & =2.24 \times 10^3 \times 28 g \\ & =0.06272 g\end{aligned}$
$\% \mathrm{~N}_{2}=\frac{0.06272}{0.5} \times 100 \simeq 12.57$

Consider the following chemical equilibrium of the gas phase reaction at a constant temperature : $\mathrm{A}(\mathrm{g}) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{B}(\mathrm{g})+\mathrm{C}(\mathrm{g})$
If $p$ being the total pressure, $K_{p}$ is the pressure equilibrium constant and $\alpha$ is the degree of dissociation, then which of the following is true at equilibrium?
  • A
    If p value is extremely high compared to $\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{p}}, \alpha \approx 1$
  • B
    When $p$ increases $\alpha$ decreases
  • C
    If $k_{p}$ value is extremely high compared to $p, \alpha$ becomes much less than unity
  • D
    When $p$ increases $\alpha$ increases
Answer
B. When $p$ increases $\alpha$ decreases
$\mathrm{A}(\mathrm{g}) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{B}(\mathrm{g})+\mathrm{C}(\mathrm{g})$
$\begin{array}{cccc} t =0 & a & 0 & 0 \\ t = t & a (1-\alpha) & a \alpha & a \alpha\end{array}$
a moles of $\mathrm{A}(\mathrm{g})$ taken initially and at time
Now moles fraction of $\mathrm{A}(\mathrm{g}), \mathrm{B}(\mathrm{g})$ and $\mathrm{C}(\mathrm{g})$ are
$X_{A}=\frac{a-a \alpha}{a+a \alpha}=\frac{1-\alpha}{1+\alpha}$
$X_{B}=\frac{a \alpha}{a+a \alpha}=\frac{\alpha}{1+\alpha}$
$X_{C}=\frac{a \alpha}{a+a \alpha}=\frac{\alpha}{1+\alpha}$
Now if P is total pressure then partial pressure of $\mathrm{A}(\mathrm{g}), \mathrm{B}(\mathrm{g})$ and $\mathrm{C}(\mathrm{g})$ are
$\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{A}}=\left(\frac{1-\alpha}{1+\alpha}\right) \mathrm{P}$
$\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{B}}=\left(\frac{\alpha}{1+\alpha}\right) \mathrm{P}$
$\mathrm{P}_{\mathrm{C}}=\left(\frac{\alpha}{1+\alpha}\right) \mathrm{P}$
$K_{P}=\frac{\left(\frac{\alpha}{1+\alpha}\right) P\left(\frac{\alpha}{1+\alpha}\right) P}{\left(\frac{1-\alpha}{1+\alpha}\right) P}$
$K_{P}=\frac{\alpha^{2} P}{1-\alpha^{2}}$
As $K_{P}$ is only function of temperature.
So as $\mathrm{P} \uparrow \quad \alpha \downarrow$

MCQ 64 Marks
The nature of oxide $\left(\mathrm{TeO}_{2}\right)$ and hydride $\left(\mathrm{TeH}_{2}\right)$ formed by Te , respectively are :
  • A
    Oxidising and acidic
  • B
    Reducing and basic
  • C
    Reducing and acidic
  • D
    Oxidising and basic
Answer
A. Oxidising and acidic
$\mathrm{TeO}_{2}$ is oxidizing in nature because it can be reduced from +4 oxidation state to lower oxidation state.
$\mathrm{TeH}_{2}$ due to less bond dissociation energy easily breaks and hence acidic in nature.
