Q1 / 90 · JEE Main 2022 (29 Jul Shift 2) · Chemistry

Consider the reaction

4HNO3l+3KCls→Cl2g+NOClg+2H2Og+3KNO3s

The amount of HNO3 required to produce110.0 g of KNO3 is

(Given : Atomic masses of H,O,N and K are 1,16,14 and 39, respectively.)

  • A
    32.2 g
  • B
    69.4 g
  • Correct answer
    C
    91.5 g
  • D
    162.5 g

Solution

4HNO3l+3KCls→Cl2g+NOClg+2H2Og+3KNO3g

                        HNO3                          KNO3Weight            Xgm                             110gmmoles                 x63                              110101

As per the stoichiometric equation4 moles of HNO3→3 moles of KNO3

1→34

x63→34×x63=110101

x=110×63×4101×3=91.5gm

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
