JEE Advanced Chemistry Question (2021) — Solution

Question

Reaction of x g of Sn with HCl quantitatively produced a salt. Entire amount of the salt reacted with y g of nitrobenzene in the presence of required amount of HCl to produce 1.29 ~g of an organic salt (quantitatively). (Use Molar masses (in g mol ^ -1 ) of H , C , N , O , Cl and Sn as 1,12,14,16,35 and 119 , respectively). The value of y is_________ .

Options

  1. A. A
  2. B. B
  3. C. C
  4. D. D

Answer

A. A

Step-by-step solution

Mass of salt produced  = 1 . 29   g Moles of salt produced  = 1 .29 129 = 0 .01   mole To produce,  0 . 01   mole  organic salt  0 . 01   mole PhNO 2  and  0 . 03   mole   SnCl 2  is required. 0 . 03   mole   SnCl 2  is produced from  0 . 03   mole   Sn . Mass of  Sn = x   gm = 0 .03 × 119 = 3 .57   g Mass of  PhNO 2 = y   gm = 0 .01 × 123 = 1 .23   g x = 3 .57       y = 1 . 23
