2.5 g2.5 \mathrm{~g} of the carbonate of a metal was treated with 100 mL100 \mathrm{~mL} of 1 NH2SO41 \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4. After the completion of the reaction, the solution was boiled off to expel CO2\mathrm{CO}_2 and was then titrated against 1 NNaOH1 \mathrm{~N} \mathrm{NaOH} solution. The volume of alkali that would be consumed, if the equivalent weight of the metal is 20

Options

  1. A5050
  2. B2525
  3. C7575
  4. D100.

Correct answer

A. 5050

Step-by-step solution

Equivalent weight of metal carbonate =20+30=502.5 g=20+30=50 2.5 \mathrm{~g} of metal carbonate =2.550=\frac{2.5}{50}=0.05 eq\mathrm{eq}.
