JEE Advance - Chemistry (2018 - Paper 1 Offline - No. 7)

The ammonia prepared by treating ammonium sulphate with calcium hydroxide is completely used by $$NiCl{}_2.6{H_2}O$$ to form a stable coordination compound. Assume that both the reactions are $$100\% $$ complete. If $$1584$$ $$g$$ of ammonium sulphate and $$952\,g$$ of $$NiC{l_2}.6{H_2}O$$ are used in the preparation, the combined weight (in grams) of gypsum and the nickel-ammonia coordination compound thus produced is _____________.

(Atomic weights in $$g$$ $$mo{l^{ - 1}}:$$ $$H = 1,N = 14,O = 16,$$ $$S = 32,Cl = 35.5,$$ $$Ca = 40,$$ $$Ni = 59$$

From the above reactions we can see that

132 g of $${(N{H_4})_2}S{O_4}$$ will produce 172 g of gypsum

1584 g of $${(N{H_4})_2}S{O_4}$$ will produce $${{172} \over {132}} \times 1584 = 2064$$ g of gypsum

Therefore, number of moles of gypsum produced $${{2064} \over {172}} = 12$$ mol

238 g of $$NiC{l_4}\,.\,6{H_2}O$$ will produce 314 g of Ni-complex

952 g of $$NiC{l_4}\,.\,6{H_2}O$$ will produce $${{314} \over {238}} \times 952 = 1256$$ g of Ni-complex

Therefore, number of moles of Ni-complex produced $${{1256} \over {314}} = 4$$ mol

So, total mass of products is

12 $$\times$$ 172 (gypsum) + 4 $$\times$$ 232 ([Ni(NH3)6]Cl2) = 2992 g
