Q.1. Calculate quantity of electricity that will be required to liberate 710 g of Cl2 gas by electrolysing a conc. sol. of NaCl what weight of NaOH & what volume o fH2at 270 c & 1atm pressure i sobtained during process ?
Ans: W = ZQ = ZTt = It = Q 2Cl- Cl2+ 2e-
=
Q = = 20 FQ = 1930000 coulomb.
1 F gives 1 eg. or 40g NaOH
20 F gives 20 eg. or 40 x 20 g = 800 NaOH Also
1 F gives 1g eg. or 1 g H2
20 F gives 20 g eg. or 20 g H2
PV = RT 1 x v = x 0.0821 x 300
= 246.3 L Q.2. Calculate volume of CL 2 at NTP produced during electrolysis of MgCl 2 which produces 6.5 g Mg. At wt. o fMG = 24.3.
Ans: At Cathode : Mg2++ 2e- Mg
At Anode : 2Cl- Cl2+ 2e -
Eq. of Mg formed at cathode = Eq. of Cl2 formed at anode

= 18.99 gAt NTP PV = RT 1 x v = x 0.0821 x 273
Q.3. How long would it taice to deposit 100g ofAl for electrolytic cell containing Al2O3 using a current of 125 A ?
Ans: 2Al3++ 6e- 2A l Eq. wt of Al = = 9 w = ZIt =
It 100 = x t t = 8577.77 second.
Q.4. 3 ampere current was passed through an ag. solution of unknown salt of Pd for 1hr 2.977g of Pdn+ was deposited. atcathode. Find n(At. wt. of Pd = 106.4)
Ans: Pdn++ ne- Pd w = It
n = 4Q.5. Electrolysis of a sol. of MnSO4in ag. H2SO4is method of preparation of MnO2.
(ag.) + 2H2O MnO2(s) + 2H+(ag.) + H1(g) Passing a current of 27A for 24 hr. gives 1 Kg of MnO2 . What is value of current efficiency.
Ans: w = Mn2+ Mn4++ 2e-
1000 =
eq. wt. = i = 25.6 A
Current efficiency = x 100 = 94.8 %
Q.6. How many gms. ofsilver could be plated out on serving tray by elctrolysis of sol. containing Ag in +1 oxidation state for period of 8 hr at current o f8.46 A ? What is area of tray if thichness of silver plating is 0.00254 cm ? Density of silver is 10.5 g/cm3.
Ans: wAg= Eq wt. of Ag = = 107.8 wAg= = 272.18 g
Volume of Ag deposited = = 25.92 ml
Surface area = = 1.02 x 104cm2
Q.7. Calculate Zn|Zn2+(ag) || Cu2+(ag.)|Cu min. conc. of Cu2+at which cell rxn. Zn + Cu2+(ag.) Zn2+(ag.) + Cu will be spontanousif Zn2+is 1 M  = 0.35 v = - 0.76
Ans: At Anode Zn Zn2++ 2e- At cathode Cu2++ 2e- Cu  Zn + Cu2+ Zn2++ Cu E0cell= - = E0cathode- E0anode E0cell= 0.35 - (- 0.76) = 1.1 v Ecell= E0cell+ log10 For rxn. to be spontaneous, Ecell= + ve > - 1.11 log10[Cu2+] > [Cu2+] > 2.36 x 10- 38M
Q.8. Calculate PH of following half cells solution
Hcl E = 0.25 vAns: H2 2H++ 2e-
0.25 = 0 - log[H+]2
- log[+] = 4.237
PH = 4.237
Q.9. Calculate eqm. constant for rxn: Fe2++ Ce4+ Fe3++ Ce3+ = 1.44 v
= 0.68 vAns: At eqm. Ecell= 0 Ecell= E0cell- log10Kc E0cell= log10Kc E0cell= E0cathode- E0anode= 1.44 - 0.68 = 0.76 v
log10Kc= = 12.8814
Kc= 7.6 x 1012
