Question:
2.76 g of silver carbonate on being strongly heated yields a
residue weighing
2.76 g of silver carbonate on being strongly heated yields a
residue weighing
Updated On: Mar 26, 2024
- 2.16 g
- 2.48 g
- 2.32 g
- 2.64 g
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Unlike other metal carbonates that usually decomposes into metal
oxides liberating carbon dioxide, silver carbonate on heating
decomposes into elemental silver liberating mixture of carbon
dioxide and oxygen gas as : M
$ Ag_2CO_3 \, _{\longrightarrow \, \, \, \, }^{Heat} 2Ag (s) + CO_2(g) + \frac{1}{2} O_2(g) $
MW = 276 g $ \hspace26mm $ 2 x 108 = 216 g
Hence, 2.76 g of $Ag_2CO_3 $ on heating will give
$ \frac{216}{216 } \times 2.76 $ = 2.16g Ag as residue.

- A region in the form of an equilateral triangle (in x-y plane) of height L has a uniform magnetic field 𝐵⃗ pointing in the +z-direction. A conducting loop PQR, in the form of an equilateral triangle of the same height 𝐿, is placed in the x-y plane with its vertex P at x = 0 in the orientation shown in the figure. At 𝑡 = 0, the loop starts entering the region of the magnetic field with a uniform velocity 𝑣 along the +x-direction. The plane of the loop and its orientation remain unchanged throughout its motion.

Classification of Matter
There are two ways of classifying the matter:
(A) Physical Classification:
Matter can exist in three physical states:
- Solids - have definite volume and definite shape
- Liquids - have definite volume but not definite shape.
- Gases - have neither definite volume nor definite shape.
(B) Chemical Classification:
Based upon the composition, matter can be divided into two main types:
- Pure Substances are defined as a single substance (or matter) which cannot be separated by simple physical methods. Pure substances can be further classified as (i) Elements (ii) Compounds
- Mixtures are the combination of two or more elements or compounds which are not chemically combined together and may also be present in any proportion.
