Question

A Zn rod weighing 25 g was kept in 100mL of 1 M CuSO4 solution. After a certain time, the molarity of Cl2+ in solution was 0.8. What was the molarity of SO24? What was the mass of the Zn rod after cleaning?

(The atomic mass of Zn=65.4)

Solution

The correct option is C 23.692g
Eq. of Cu2+ before reaction =100×11000×2=0.2

Eq. of Cu2+ after reaction =100×0.81000×2=0.16

Eq. of Cu2+ lost =0.20.16=0.04

Eq. of Zn lost =0.04

wZn/EZn=0.04 or wZn=0.04×65.42=1.308g

Thus, net mass of Zn rod =251.308=23.692g

Since, reactions are ZnZn2++2e

No, change in molarity of SO24,i.e., 1M

Hence, the correct option is A
