Moles K2Cr2O7 = 0.0442

Conc. = 0.0442/0.250 = 0.177 mol dm3
Moles CuSO4.5H2O = 0.240
Conc. = 0.240/0.800 = 0.300 mol dm3
Note that the moles of NaCl remains unchanged
moles before dilution = moles after dilution
0.250 1.00
= c 1.0
c
= 0.250
concentration is 0.250 mol dm3
Total moles of HCl = (0.100 x 0.150) + (0.250 x 0.300) = 0.0900
Total volume = 0.350 dm3
Resultant concentration = 0.0900/0.350 = 0.257 mol dm3

Moles BaSO4 = 0.0215

Moles acid reqd = 0.0215 Vol = 35.8 cm3

Mastery Questions
1.

Let the mass of CaSO3 be x g and the mass of MgSO3 be (1.83x) g

Decomposition eqn : XSO3 XO + SO2
Moles of CaO formed = Moles of CaSO3 = x/120.2
Moles of MgO formed = Moles of MgSO3 = (1.83x)/104.4
56.1x (1.83 x ) 40.3
+
= 0.82
Equating masses of the oxide :
120.2
104.4
Solving, we get x = 1.41
Mass of CaSO3 = 1.41 g or 76.9%
Mass of MgSO3 = 0.42 g or 23.1%

To form XeF4, Xe 2F2 XeF4

To form XeF6, Xe 3F2 XeF6
Moles of Xe used = 1.77 x 104 Mass of Xe used = 0.0232 g
Let the mass of Xe in XeF4 be x g and that of Xe in XeF6 be (0.0232x) g
2 x 3(0.0232 x)
+
= 5.00 10 4
Equating moles of F2 :
131
131
Solving, we have x = 0.0031
207
0.0031 = 0.00490 g
131
245
( 0.0232 0.0031) = 0.0376 g
Similarly, mass of XeF6 =
131

Mass of XeF4 =

Mass of unreacted Xe = 0.00118 g

Mass % of XeF4 = (0.00490/0.04368) 100 = 11.2 %
Mass % of XeF6 = (0.0376/0.04368) 100 = 86.1 %

xs[10(4+y/4)]
[10 + xs] [xs10(4+y/4) + 40] = 35

Vol. of HCl after mixing = 4.57 dm3

Moles of HCl present = 4.57 x 0.893 = 4.081
Moles contributed by 0.315 M HCl = 1.2 x 0.315 = 0.378
Moles contributed by HCl of unknown concentration = 4.081 0.378 = 3.703
Concentration of this second HCl solution = 3.703/3.37 = 1.10 mol dm3
