NEET2018ChemistrySome Basic Concepts of ChemistryActual
Mixture of two bivalent metals A and B having mass 2 ~g when dissolved in HCl at STP, 2.24 ~L H ₂ is evolved. What is the mass of A present in mixture? (Atomic mass of A=15 u , B=30 u )
Options
- A1 ~g
- B1.5 ~g
- C0.5 ~g
- D0.75 ~g
Correct answer
A. 1 ~g
Step-by-step solution
A+2 HCl A Cl ₂+ H ₂ Mole : x 15 x 15 B+2 HCl BCl ₂+ H ₂ Mole : 2-x 30 2-x 30 Total moles of H ₂= x 15 + 2-x 30 = 2.24 22.4 = 1 10 x=1 ~g
