JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2022 - 25th July Morning Shift - No. 1)

$$\mathrm{SO}_{2} \mathrm{Cl}_{2}$$ on reaction with excess of water results into acidic mixture

$$\mathrm{SO}_{2} \mathrm{Cl}_{2}+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \rightarrow \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}+2 \mathrm{HCl}$$

16 moles of $$\mathrm{NaOH}$$ is required for the complete neutralisation of the resultant acidic mixture. The number of moles of $$\mathrm{SO}_{2} \mathrm{Cl}_{2}$$ used is :

16
8
4
2

Explanation

$$\mathrm{SO}_{2} \mathrm{Cl}_{2}+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \rightarrow \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}+2 \mathrm{HCl}$$

Moles of $$\mathrm{NaOH}$$ required for complete neutralization of resultant acidic mixture $$=16$$ moles

And 1 mole of $$\mathrm{SO}_{2} \mathrm{Cl}_{2}$$ produced 4 moles of $$\mathrm{H}^{+}$$.

$\therefore$ Moles of $$\mathrm{SO}_{2} \mathrm{Cl}_{2}$$ used will be $$=\frac{16}{4}=4$$ moles
