$5.2 \mathrm{m} \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OH}$ ie $5.2 \mathrm{mol} \mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{OH}$ present in $1 \mathrm{kg}$ water
$\mathrm{X}_{\mathrm{M}}=\frac{5.2}{5.2+\frac{1000}{18}}=\frac{5.2}{5.2+55.5}=\frac{5.2}{60.7}=.086$
Q. The concentrated sulphuric acid that is peddled commercially is 95% $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}$ by weight. If the density of this commerical acid is 1.834 g $\mathrm{cm}^{-3}$, the molarity of this solution is :-
(1) 17.8 M (2) 15.7 M (3) 10.5 M (4) 12.0 M
[aieee-2012]

$95 \% \frac{\mathrm{w}}{\mathrm{w}} \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}$ i.e. $100 \mathrm{gm}$ contain $95 \mathrm{gm} \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}$
Molarity $=\frac{95 / 98}{100 / 1.834} \times 1000$

$=\frac{1120}{1.15} \mathrm{ml}$
Molarity $=\frac{120 / 60}{1120 / 1.15}=\frac{2 \times 1.15}{1120} \times 1000=2.05 \mathrm{M}$

$\because$ Number of moles of $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COOH}$ adsorbed $=(0.06-0.042) \times \frac{50}{1000}$
$\therefore$ Amount of $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COOH}$ adsorbed per gram of charcoal $=\frac{0.018 \times 50}{1000} \times \frac{60}{3}=0.018 \mathrm{gm}$
= 18 mg

Q. The most abundant elements by mass in the body of a healthy human adult are :
Oxygen (61.4%) ; Carbon (22.9%), Hydrogen (10.0%) ; and Nitrogen (2.6%). The weight which a 75 kg person would gain if all 1H atoms are replaced by $^{2} \mathrm{H}$ atoms is
(1) 15 kg (2) 37.5 kg (3) 7.5 kg (4) 10 kg
[JEE(Main)-2017]
Ans. (3)
Mass in the body of a healthy human adult has :-
Oxygen = 61.4%, Carbon = 22.9%,
Hydrogen = 10.0% and Nitrogen = 2.6%
Total weight of person = 75 kg
Mass due to $1 \mathrm{H}$ is $=75 \times \frac{10}{100}=7.5 \mathrm{kg}$
$^{1} \mathrm{H}$ atoms are replaced by $^{2} \mathrm{H}$ atoms.
So mass gain by person =7.5 kg

(3) only $\mathrm{F}^{-}$
(4) only $\mathrm{SO}_{4}^{2-}$
[JEE - Main 2017]
Ans. (3)
$\mathrm{NO}_{3}^{-}$ : The maximum limit of nitrate in drinking water is 50 ppm. Excess nitrate in drinking
water can cause disease. Such as methemoglobinemia.
$\mathrm{SO}_{4}^{2-}:$ above 500 ppm of $\mathrm{SO}_{4}^{2-}$ ion in drinking water causes laxative effect otherwise at moderate levels it is harmless
$\mathrm{F}^{-}$ : Above 2ppm concentration of $\mathrm{F}^{-}$ in drinking water cause brown mottling of teeth.
The concentration given in question of $\mathrm{SO}_{4}^{2-} \& \mathrm{NO}_{3}^{-}$ in water is suitable for drinking but the concentration of $\mathrm{F}^{-}$ (i.e 10 ppm) make water unsuitable for drinking purp
