Explanation / Answer

1) We want to prepare 325 mL of 5.30 x 10–2 M KMnO4 solution.

Let, for the KMnO4 solution to be prepared

Volume = 325 mL = 0.325 L ………….( since 1 mL = 1/1000 L)

Molarity = 5.30 x 10–2 M

From this we can calculate number of moles of KMnO4.

Number of moles = Molarity x Volume in L

Number of moles of KMnO4 in solution to be prepared = 5.30 x 10–2 x 0.325 = 1.7225 x 10–2 moles of KMnO4.

We know that ,

1 mole of substance = molar mass of substance

Molar mass of KMnO4 = 158.034 g/mol.

Hence we write correspondence as,

If,        1 mole of KMnO4 158.034 g KMnO4

Then, 1.7225 x 10–2 moles of KMnO4. say ‘M’ g KMnO4.

By cross multiplication way,

M x 1 = 1.7225 x 10–2 x 158.034

M = 2.722

I.e. 2.722 g of KMnO4 need to be dissolved and diluted to 345 mL distilled water which then gives 5.30 x 10–2 M KMnO4 solution.

====================================================

2)

Number of moles = Molarity in M/L x Volume in L

For HCl given that,

Number of moles = 26.7

Volume = 90.0 L

Molarity in M/L = ?

Let us put these values in above equation and calculate unknown part,

26.7 = Molarity in M/L x 90.0

Molarity in M/L = 26.7/90

Molarity in M/L = 0.297 M/L

Concentration of HCl solution formed thus is 0.297 M/L.

==============================================

3)

Number of moles = Molarity in M/L x Volume in L

For Li2CO3 solution given that,

Number of moles = 6.40 x 10–2 mole.

Volume = 696 mL = 0.696 L …………….(1 mL = 1/1000 L)

Molarity in M/L =?

Let us put these values in above equation and calculate unknown part,

6.40 x 10–2 = Molarity in M/L x 0.696

Molarity in M/L = 6.40 x 10–2 /0.696

Molarity in M/L = 9.2 x 10–2 M/L.

Concentration of Li2CO3 solution formed thus is 9.2 x 10–2 M/L.

==========================================================================

4) Combustion reaction of Ethane is,

2C2H6 (g) + 7O2 (g) ---------> 4CO2 (g) + 6H2O (g)

Stoichiometry says

2 mol C2H6 (g) 7 mol O2 (g) 4 mol CO2 (g) 6H2O (g)

Avogadro’s hypothesis states that 1 mole of gas at STP conditions occupy 22.4 L of the volume.

Hence above correspondence in terms of volume is given as,

2 x 22.4 L C2H6 (g) 7 x 22.4 L O2 (g) 4 x 22.4 L CO2 (g) 6 x 22.4 L H2O (g)

44.8 L C2H6 (g) 156.8 L O2 (g) 89.6 L CO2 (g) 134.4 L H2O (g) ……………………(1)

Part-A)

Required correspondence is,

If,         44.8 L C2H6 (g) 156.8 L O2 (g)

Then, 6.0 L C2H6 (g) say V1 L O2 (g)

By cross multiplication method,

V1 x 44.8 = 156.8 x 6.0

V1 = 156.8 x 6.0 / 44.8

V1 = 21 L

For complete combustion of 6 L of Ethane it will require 21 L of O2 gas.

====================

Part-B

Required correspondence is,

If        44.8 L C2H6 (g) 89.6 L CO2 (g)

Then, say V2 L C2H6 (g) 24 L CO2 (g)

Hence,

V2 x 89.6 = 44.8 x 24

V2 = 24 x 44.8/89.6

V2 = 12 L

12 L of Ethane gas need to be burnt for 24 L Of CO2 formation.
