At 25°C, molar conductance of 0.1 molar aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide is 9.54 Ω-1 cm2 mol-1 and at infinite dilution, its molar conductance is 238 Ω-1 cm2 mol-1. The degree of ionization of ammonium hydroxide at the same concentration and temperature is
1. 2.080 %
2. 20.800 %
3. 4.008 %
4. 40.800 %
When a copper wire is immersed in a solution of AgNO3, the colour of solution becomes blue because copper:
(1) forms a soluble complex with AgNO3
(2) is oxidised to Cu2+
(3) is reduced to Cu2-
(4) splits up into atoic form and dissolves
The specific conductance of a 0.1 M KCl solution at 23 is 0.012 .
The resistance of the cell containing the solution at the same temperature

2. 0.66 cm-1
3. 0.918 cm-1
4. 1.12 cm-1

The standard reduction potential at 290 K for the following half reactions are,
(i) Zn2+ + 2e— → Zn(s); E° = -0.762 V
(ii) Cr3+ + 3e → Cr(s); E° = -0.740 V
(iii) 2H+ + 2e → H2(g); · E° = -0.000 V
(iv) Fe3+ + e → Fe2+; E° = +0.77V
Which is the strongest reducing agent?
(1) Zn
(2) Cr
(3) Fe2+
(4) H2
The Zn acts as sacrificial or cathodic protection to prevent rusting of iron because:
(1) of Zn < of Fe
(2) of Zn > of Fe
(3) of Zn = of fe
(4) Zn is cheaper than iron
What mass of copper will be deposited by passing 2 Faraday of electricity through a solution of Cu(II) salt?
