 is known to contain some radioactive impurity (half-life = 3 hrs.) in a sample. This sample has an initial activity of 1000 counts per minute, and after 30 hrs it shows an activity of 200 counts per minute. What percent of the initial activity was due to the impurity ?

For the cell (at 298 K)

Ag(s) | AgCl(s) | Cl– (aq) || AgNO₃ (aq) | Ag(s) 

Which of following is correct :

At 298K the standard free energy of formation of H₂O(l) is –257.20 kJ/mole while that of its ionisation into H⁺ ions and OH^– ions is 80.35 kJ/mole, then the emf of the following cell at 298 K will be (Take F = 96500 C] :

H₂(g,1 bar) | H⁺ (1M) || OH¯ (1M) | O₂ (g, 1bar)

Consider the reaction, NH₂NO₂ (aq) ———? N₂O(g) + H₂O(l)

The concentration of nitramide as a function of time is shown below for a particular run.

Which line represents the correct tangent to the graph at the origin (t = 0) ?

In a hypothetical reaction

A(aq)  2B(aq) + C(aq)        (1st order decomposition)

'A' is optically active (dextro-rototory) while 'B' and 'C' are optically inactive but 'B' takes part in a titration reaction (fast reaction) with H₂O₂. Hence the progress of reaction can be monitored by measuring rotation of plane of plane polarised light or by measuring volume of H₂O₂ consumed in titration.

In an experiment the optical rotation was found to be θ = 40° at t = 20 min and θ = 10° at t = 50 min. from start of the reaction. If the progress would have been monitored by titration method, volume of H₂O₂ consumed at t = 15 min. (from start) is 40 ml then volume of H₂O₂ consumed at t = 60 min will be:

How many m.moles of sucrose should be dissolved in 500 grams of water so as to get a solution which has a difference of 103.57°C between boiling point and freezing point ?

(K_f = 1.86 K Kg mol^–1, K_b = 0.52 K Kg mol^–1)

When a graph is plotted between log x/m and log p, it is straight line with an angle 45° and intercept 0.6020 on y-axis. If initial pressure is 0.3 atm, what will be the amount of gas adsorbed per gram of adsorbent :

Assuming the formation of an ideal solution, determine the boiling point of a mixture containing 1560 g benzene (molar mass = 78) and 1125 g chlorobenzene (molar mass = 112.5) using the following against an external pressure of 1000 Torr:

Decomposition of A follows first order kinetics by the following equation.

4A(g) → B(g)  +  2C(g)

If initially, total pressure was 800 mm of Hg and after 10 minutes it is found to be 650 mm of Hg. What is half-life of A ? (Assume only A is present initially)
