Organic Chemistry Some Basic Principles and Techniques - Result Question 52

####58. In Duma’s method of estimation of nitrogen 0.35g of an organic compound gave 55mL of nitrogen collected at 300K temperature and 715mm pressure. The percentage composition of nitrogen in the compound would be : (Aqueous tension at 300K=15mm )

[2011]

(a) 15.45

(b) 16.45

(c) 17.45

(d) 14.45

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. (b) Given wt of compound taken (w)=0.35g

Volume of nitrogen collected (V)=55mL

Room temperature (tK)=300K

Atmospheric pressure (P)=715mm

Aq. tension (ρ)=15mm

Calculation -

Volume of N2 at NTP =(Pρ)×Vt×273760mL

=(71515)×55300×273760=46.098mL

of nitrogen

=28× vol. of N2 at NTP×10022400× wt of organic compound 

=28×46.098×10022400×0.35=16.46
