Using Duma's method for estimating nitrogen \(\mathrm{l} \mathrm{g}\) of an organic compound \(X\) gave \(82 \mathrm{~mL}\) of nitrogen, collected at \(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) and \(750 \mathrm{~mm} \mathrm{Hg}\) pressure. If the aqueous tension at \(27^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) is \(30 \mathrm{~mm} \mathrm{Hg}\) pressure, then the percentage of nitrogen in the given compound \(X\) is

  1. A 22.09 %
  2. B 88.36 %
  3. C 44.18 %
  4. D 70.69 %
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 88.36 %

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For 750 mm pressure, subtract aqueous tension 30 mm to obtain pressure of nitrogen. p = 750 − 30 = 720mm of Hg Now, volume of nitrogen at STP \(=\frac{V \times p \times 273}{T \times 760}\)…
