The normal boiling point of water is 373.15 K. From the stoichiometric coefficients of the above

The overall reaction can be represented as:
14. This is the standard case of selective precipitation.

⇒ Option (D) is CORRECT.

13
⇒ [Link] of Cu(IO3)2 used = 0.2
Volume of saturated solution of Cu(IO3)2 = 20 mL 15.
⇒ Conc. of [Cu(IO3)2] = = 0.01 M
0.2
20
Now, we know that Cu(IO3)2 ionizes as follows:
Cu(IO3)2 → Cu2+ + 2 IO3–
⇒ conc. of [Cu2+] = conc. of [Cu(IO3)2] = 0.01 M
When we add 2M of NO2(g) reaction will shift in
& conc. of [IO3–] = 2 × conc. of [Cu(IO3)2] = 0.02 M

Now, we can say that from the above reaction: Given, at first equilibrium:
Ksp of Cu(IO3)2 = [Cu2+] × [IO3–]2 [N2O4(g)]=[NO2(g)]=4M
⇒ Ksp of Cu(IO3)2 = 0.01 × (0.02)2 We know that for the given chemical reaction:

⇒ Ksp of Cu(IO3)2 = 4 × 10–6 Kc =

So, Statement II is CORRECT.

It can be seen from the dissociation of

16. In this solution, the source of OH– is water Thus, in a solution containing 0.01 M ZnCl2,
∴ Cα = [OH–] ( c = 55.55 M) Zn(OH)2 gets dissolved in the following manner:

α = 1.8 × 10–11 M

% ionisation = 1.8 × 10–9 M

ZnCl2 solution.
⇒ Ksp = (0.01 + S') (2S')2
Ksp = [Zn2+][OH–]2
⇒ 4 x 10–12 = 0.01 x (2S')2
⇒ Ksp = S x [2S]2
⇒ (S')2 = 10–10
⇒ Ksp = 4S3
⇒ S' = 10–5 M
Given: Thus, the solubility of Zn(OH)2 in 0.01 M
Ksp = 4 x 10–12 = 4S3 ZnCl2 solution = 10–5 M
⇒ S3 = 10–12 Hence, Statement IV is CORRECT.
⇒S= 10–4 moles/litres ⇒ Statements I, II, III & IV are all correct.
18. ∵ Ksp (AgCl) = [Ag+][Cl–] ⇒ mass of NaOH added = 5.19 × 10–3 × 40 g

Since [Ag+] required to precipitate AgCl is less than Now

The pH of the solution after adding NaOH = 5.5 [Link] of HCl added = 2.8

NaOH reacts with the HA present in the solution,

increasing the concentration of the A– ions.
The reation taking place on adding x [Link] of
