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
The solution of CuSO4 in which copper rod is immersed is diluted to 10 times, the reduction electrode potential:
1. increases by 0.030 V
2. decreases by 0.030 V
3. increases by 0.059 V
4. decreases by 0.059 V
