Question

In an experiment, 10 L of air (containing O3) at 1 atm and 27oC was passed through an alkaline KI solution. After neutralisation, free iodine requires 1.5 mL of 0.01NNa2S2O3 solution. The molar percentage of O3 in air is y×104. Here y is (in nearest integer) :

Solution

Moles of ozone = Moles of iodine =2 moles of Na2S2O3
Moles of Na2S2O3=1.5×103×0.01=1.5×105
This is equal to the number of moles of ozone.
22.4 L of a gas at STP corresponds to 1 mole.

Hence, the number of moles in 10 L of air =1022.4=0.4464 moles

Mole percentage of ozone =2×1.5×1050.4464×100=0.00336 =6.16×104
