Question

10 g sample of bleaching powder was dissolved into water to make the solution one litre. To this solution, 35 mL of 1.0 M Mohr salt solution was added containing enough H2SO4. After the reaction was complete, the excess Mohr salt required 30 mL of 0.1 MKMnO4 for oxidation. The % of available Cl2 approximately is (Molecular weight =71 g/mol) :

Solution

The correct option is C 7.1%
Meq of Mohr's salt
=35×1×1=35
M eq of KMnO4= Meq of excess Mohr salt
=30×0.1×5=15
M.eq of Mohr salt reacted with bleaching powder =3515=20
M eq of Cl2=20
Weight of Cl2=20×103×712=0.71g
Percent of Cl2=0.7110×100=7.1%
