The most convenient method to protect the bottom of the ship made of iron is
1. coating it with red lead oxide
2. white tin plating
3. connecting it with Mg block
4. connecting it with Pb block
When 0.1 mole of MnO2-4 is oxidised, the quantity of electricity required to completely oxidise MnO2-4 to MnO-4 is
1. 96500 C
2. 2*96500 C
3. 9650 C
4. 96.50 C
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
The standard reduction potential for Fe2+|Fe and Sn2+|Sn electrodes are -0.44 V and -0.14 V respectively. For the cell reaction,
Fe2+ + Sn → Fe + Sn2+, the standard Emf is -
1. +0.30 V
2. 0.58 V
3. +0.58 V
4. -0.30 V
On electrolysing a solution of dilute H2SO4 between platinum electrodes, the gas evolved at the anode and cathode are respectively:
1. SO2 and O2
2. SO3 and H2
3. O2 and H2
4. H2 and O2
What mass of copper will be deposited by passing 2 faraday of electricity through a solution of Cu(II) salt?
1. 35.6 g
2. 63.5 g
3. 6.35 g
4. 3.56 g
In electrolysis of NaCl when Pt electrode is taken then H2 is liberated at cathode while with Hg cathode it forms sodium amalgam because :
1. Hg is more inert than Pt
2. More voltage is required to reduce H+ at Hg than at Pt
3. Na is dissolved in Hg while it does not dissolve in Pt
4. Concentration of H+ ions is larger when Pt electrode is taken.
The same amount of electricity was passed through two cells containing molten Al2O3 and molten NaCl. If 1.8 g of Al were liberated in one cell, the amount of Na liberated in the other cell is:
1. 4.6 g
2. 2.3 g
3. 6.4 g
4. 3.2 g
If mercury is used as cathode in the electrolysis of aqueous NaCl solution, the ions discharged at cathode are:
1. H+
2. Na+
3. OH-
4. Cl-
A gas X at 1 atm is bubbled through a solution containing a mixture of 1MY- and 1MZ- at 25C. If the reduction potential of Z > Y > X, then:
1. Y will oxidise X and not Z
2. Y will oxidise Z and not X
3. Y will oxidise both X and Z
4. Y will reduce both X and Z
