Answer:
1.635 M
Explanation:
Given:
10 mL of 20 volumes Hydrogen Peroxide
Here,
20 volumes of Hydrogen Peroxide means that on decomposition of 1 mL of H₂O₂ 20 mL of O₂ is obtained
also,
means 1 dm³ of H₂O₂ solution produces 20 dm³ oxygen
Now,
at 298K and 1 atm
20 dm³ oxygen = [tex]\frac{\textup{20}}{\textup{24.47}}[/tex] moles
or
= 0.817 moles
also,
2H₂O₂ → 2H₂O + O₂
thus,
1 dm³ of solution must contain 2 × moles of O₂ as moles of H₂O₂
thus,
Number of moles of H₂O₂ = 2 × 0.817
or
Number of moles of H₂O₂ = 1.635 moles
Hence,
For 20 volume hydrogen peroxide is 1.635 M
