Dilute `H_(2)SO_(4)` behaves as a proton acid and zinc metal displaces hydrogen from the acid.
`Zn+H_(2)SO_(4)("dil")to ZnSO_(4)+H_(2)`
Concentrated `H_(2)O_(4)` behaves as a strong oxidising agent and itself is reduced to `SO_(2)`.
`Zn +2H_(2)SO_(4) ("conc.")to ZnSO_(4)+SO_(2)2H_(2)O`.

A and B are two salts. A reacts both with dil `H_2SO_4` and conc. `H_2SO_4` to give reddish brown vapours. However, B reacts only with conc. `H_2SO_4`

Correct Answer - C `NaNO_2` gives `NO_2` (brown vapours) both with dil. as well as conc. `H_2SO_4`. However NaBr gives `Br_2` (brown vapours) only with conc. `H_2SO_4`. This is because halides...

Aniline on heating with conc. `HNO_(3)+` conc. `H_(2)SO_(4)` mixture yields

Correct Answer - C Since `HNO_(3)` is also a strong oxidising agent, therefore, aniline forms tarry oxidation products along with some oxidation products.

Zinc reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to give hydrogen at `17^(@)C`. The enthalpy of the reaction is `-12.55kJ` `mol^(-1)` of zinc and entropy cha

Given, `DeltaH=-12.55kJ" "mol^(-1)` `DeltaS=5.0J" "K^(-1)" "mol^(-1)` `=0.005kJ" "K^(-1)" "mol^(-1)` `T=17+273=290K` Applying `DeltaG=DeltaH-TDeltaS` `=12.55-0.005xx290` `=-12.55-1.45=-14.00kJ" "mol^(-1)` Since, `DeltaG` is negative, the reaction will be spontaneous.
