Question

2.5 g sample of copper is dissolved in excess of H2SO4 to prepare 100 ml of 0.02MCuSO4(aq). 10 ml of 0.02M solution of CuSO4(aq) is mixed with excess of KI to show the following changes:

CuSO4+2KIK2SO4+CuI2

2CuI2Cu2I2+I2

The liberated iodine is titrated with hypo (Na2S2O3) which requires V ml of 0.1M hypo solution for its complete reduction.The amount of I2 liberated in the reaction of 10 ml of 0.02M solution with excess KI is :

A

Solution

The correct option is B 0.0254 g
100 ml of 0.02 M CuSO4 solution corresponds to 100×0.02=2 mmol.
Out of this, 10 ml (i.e 0.2 mmol) are used .
2CuSO42CuI2I2
2 moles of CuSO4 will liberate 1 mol of I2.
0.2 mmoles of CuSO4 will liberate 0.1 mmol of I2.
The molar mass of I2 is 253.8 g/mol.
Hence, 0.1 mmol of I2 corresponds to 0.1mol×253.8g/mol1000=0.0254g of I2.

Hence option (B) is correct.
