Read the following passage and answer the next five questions based on it.
Battery or cell converts chemical energy of the redox reaction to electrical energy. In fuel cells (a galvanic cell), the chemical energy of combustion of fuels like H2, ethanol, etc., is directly converted to electrical energy. In a fuel cell, H2 and O2 react to produce electricity, where H2 gas is oxidized at the anode and oxygen is reduced at the cathode, and the reactions involved are:
Anode reaction: H2 + 2OH- → 2H2O + 2e-
Cathode reaction: O2 + 2H2O + 4e- → 4OH-
67.2 L of H2 at STP reacts in 15 minutes.
Question: 1
The number of moles of hydrogen oxidized is:
The number of moles of hydrogen oxidized is:
Updated On: Oct 29, 2024
- 0.33 moles
- 33.3 moles
- 3.0 moles
- 1.33 moles
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Using the ideal gas equation, 22.4 L of any gas at STP is equivalent to 1 mole of gas. Therefore, the number of moles of H₂ in 67.2 L is 3.0.

Question: 2
The number of moles of electrons produced in the oxidation of H$_2$
The number of moles of electrons produced in the oxidation of H$_2$
Updated On: Oct 29, 2024
- 2 moles
- 4 moles
- 1 mole
- 6 moles
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
For every mole of H$_2$, 2 moles of electrons are produced. Since 3.0 moles of H$_2$ are oxidized, the number of moles of electrons produced is 6.

Question: 3
The quantity of electricity produced in the oxidation of 67.2 L H₂
The quantity of electricity produced in the oxidation of 67.2 L H₂
Updated On: Oct 29, 2024
- 96500 C
- 579000 C
- 193000 C
- 48250 C
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The total charge is calculated using Q = n × F, where n = 6 moles of electrons and F = 96500 C/mol. Therefore, Q = 6 × 96500 = 579000 C.

Amount of silver deposited if the current produced is used
Updated On: Oct 29, 2024
- 324 g
- 648 g
- 108 g
- 216 g
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Using Faraday’s laws of electrolysis, Amount of Ag deposited = $\frac{Q × M} {(n × F)}$ = 648 g.

Aldehydes are generally more reactive than ketones in nucleophilic addition reactions due to steric and electronic reasons. Sterically, the presence of two large groups in ketones hinders the attack of nucleophile to carbonyl carbon than in aldehydes. Electronically, aldehydes are more reactive than ketones because two alkyl groups reduce the electrophilicity of the carbonyl carbon more effectively than in the former- CUET (UG) - 2024

The transition metals are very hard and have low volatility. Their melting and boiling points are high. In any row, the melting points of these metals rise to a maximum at d5 and fall regularly as atomic number increases. The high melting points of these metals are attributed to the involvement of greater number of electrons from (n– 1)d in addition to ns electrons in the interatomic metallic bonding.- CUET (UG) - 2024
