Multiple choice chemistry chemical changes applications of electrolysis electroplating extraction of metals by electrolysis

When water is electrolysed, hydrogen and oxygen gases are produced. If $1.008\ g$ of $H _{2}$ is liberated at cathode, what mass of $O _{2}$ is formed at the anode?

  1. $32\ g$
  2. $16\ g$
  3. $8\ g$
  4. $4\ g$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

$\dfrac {W _{1}}{W _{2}} = \dfrac {E _{1}}{E _{2}}$
$\dfrac {1.008}{W _{2}} = \dfrac {1.008}{8}$
$\therefore W _{2} = 8\ g$
where, $E _{1}$ and $E _{2}$ are equivalent masses of hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

Zn metal reduces ${SO _{3}}^{2-}$ ions into $H _{2}S$in presence of concentrated $H _{2}SO _{4}$ What weight of Zn is required for
reduction of 6.3 g $Na _{2}SO _{3}$ in presence of concentrated acid.

  1. 9.75 g

  2. 13 g

  3. 130 g

  4. 23 g

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

eq. of $Zn=$ eq.of ${SO _{3}}^{2-}$
$\frac{w}{65}\times 2 =\frac{6.3}{126}\times 6\Rightarrow w=\frac{6.3}{126}\times \frac{6\times 65}{2}=9.75 g$

Calculate the mass of Ag deposited at cathode when a current of 2A was passed through a solution of $Ag{ NO } _{ 3 }$ for 15 min.
(Given : Molar mass of $Ag = 108\ g\ { mol }^{ -\ 1 }$ $\ 1F=96500\ C\ { mol }^{ -1 }$).

  1. $3.015\ g$
  2. $2.015\ g$
  3. $4.2\ g$
  4. $3.1\ g$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Given:

Molar Mass of Ag = 108 g/mol

$1F = 96500\ C mol^{−1}$

Reaction at cathode = $Ag + e^-  \rightarrow   Ag(s)$ 

$w = Zlt$

Where, w = Mass deposited at cathode

Z = electrochemical constant

I = current

t = time

Now I = 2amp

$t = 15\ min = 15\times 60 = 900\ seconds$

Z = Eq. wt of substance $/ 96500 = 108/96500$ 

So,

$w = \dfrac{108}{96500} \times 900 \times 2 $

= $2.015g$

The electrochemical equivalent of silver is $0.0011180g$. When an electric current of $0.5$ ampere is passed through an aqueous silver nitrate solution for $200sec$, the amount of silver deposited is:

  1. $1.1180g$
  2. $0.11180g$
  3. $5.590g$
  4. $0.5590g$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

According to the data given when $1$ e is passed the amount of silver,

deposited is $0.0011180\,g$
$\therefore (0.5\times 200)c$ is passed
then $(0.0011180\times 100)g$
of silver gets deposited 
$=0.11180\,g$

$H _2(g)$ and $O _2(g)$ , can be produced by the electrolysis of water. What total volume (in $L$) of $O _2$ and $H _2$ are produced at $STP$ when a current of $30$ A is passed through a $K _2SO _4\, (aq)$  solution for 193 minutes?

  1. 20.16

  2. 40.32

  3. 60.48

  4. 80.64

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Total charge passed is Q = I * t = 30 A * (193 * 60 s) = 347400 C. The moles of electrons transferred are n(e-) = Q / F = 347400 / 96500 = 3.6 mol. From the electrolysis of water, 2 moles of electrons produce 1 mole of gas total (0.5 mol O2 and 1 mol H2 per 2 moles of electrons, meaning 3 moles of total gas per 4 moles of electrons; specifically, 4 e- give 1 mole O2 (22.4 L) and 2 moles H2 (44.8 L)). Scaling by 3.6 mol of electrons gives (3.6 / 4) * 3 * 22.4 = 60.48 L total gas at STP.

During the mid ninteenth century, Daguerro-type portraits were very popular. A portrait image of a person was made on silver plated copper by developing the image with ?

  1. Silver bromide

  2. Mercury vapour

  3. 'Hypo' (sodium hypochlorite)

  4. An iodine solution

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
The latent image was developed to visibility by several minutes of exposure to the forms given off by heated mercury in purpose made developing box.
So development process of Daguerro-type portraits is done with Mercury Vapour.
