JEE Advanced 2016 Medium - Paragraph:
Chemical reactions involve interaction of atoms and molecules. A large number of atoms/molecules (approximately \(6.023 \times 10^{23}\) ) are present in a few grams of any chemical compound varying with their atomic/molecular masses. To handle such large numbers conveniently, the mole concept was introduced. This concept has implications in diverse areas such as analytical chemistry, biochemistry, electrochemistry and radiochemistry. The following example illustrates a typical case, involving chemical/electrochemical reaction, which requires a clear understanding of the mole concept.
A \(4.0\) molar aqueous solution of \(\mathrm{NaCl}\) is prepared and \(500 \mathrm{~mL}\) of this solution is electrolysed. This leads to the evolution of chlorine gas at one of electrodes (atomic mass: \(\mathrm{Na}=23, \mathrm{Hg}=200 ; 1\) faraday \(=96500\) coulombs).

- Paragraph I: An organic compound \(\mathbf{P}\) with molecular formula \(\mathrm{C}_9 \mathrm{H}_{18} \mathrm{O}_2\) decolorizes bromine water and also shows positive iodoform test. \(\mathbf{P}\) on ozonolysis followed by treatment with \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}_2\) gives \(\mathbf{Q}\) and \(\mathbf{R}\). While compound \(\mathbf{Q}\) shows positive iodoform test, compound \(\mathbf{R}\) does not give positive iodoform test. \(\mathbf{Q}\) and \(\mathbf{R}\) on oxidation with pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) followed by heating give \(\mathbf{S}\) and \(\mathbf{T}\), respectively. Both \(\mathbf{S}\) and \(\mathbf{T}\) show positive iodoform test.
Complete copolymerization of 500 moles of \(\mathbf{Q}\) and 500 moles of \(\mathbf{R}\) gives one mole of a single acyclic copolymer \(\mathbf{U}\).

An aqueous solution of a mixture of two inorganic salts, when treated with dilute \(H C\) ?, gave a precipitate \((\boldsymbol{P})\) and a filtrate \((\boldsymbol{Q})\). The precipitate \(\boldsymbol{P}\) was found to dissolve in hot water. The filtrate \((\boldsymbol{Q})\) remained unchanged, when treated with \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{~S}\) in a dilute mineral acid medium. However, it gave a precipitate \((\boldsymbol{R})\) with \(H_{2} S\) in an ammoniacal medium.
