Can someone explain this to me? I have done all the calculation but answer is coming different.
Summer 2011, Variant 13, Q12.

My calculation
Al2O3 + 6HCl = 2AlCl3 + 3H20

As 1 mol of Al2O3 reacts with 6 mol of HCl, 0.02 mol react with 0.12 mol.
0.12/2= 0.06 dm3 of HCl 60 cm3. Whats wrong with this?

The question says that there are 0.02 moles of Al not Al2O3.
My calculation:
4Al+3O2--->2Al2O3
AL2O3+6HCl---->2AlCl3
Since 4 moles of Al is equal to 2 moles of Al2O3, 0.02 moles of Al will be equal to 0.01 mole of Al2O3.
According to equation,
Moleos of HCl=6xmoles of Al2O3
i.e moles of Hcl=0.06.
since conc=mol/vol,
vol=mole/conc
=0.06/2=0.03 dm^3= 30 cm^3
The answer is C.

i guess the question are tough which i asked u :eek:

thnx..ques 27 also?

Look, since the C:H ratio is high, we can predict that benzene is present.
Since it is not readily oxidised by mild oxidising agents, we say that it is a tertiary alcohol. draw the structures and the only compound which produced by the dehydration of X is D.

Yaar I am not sure about 27. I mean i get confused between C and D.
Let me work it out and then i'll tell you too :)

I think it has something to do with tertiary alcohal....there is possibility of tertiary alcohal in D which cannot be oxidised
