Question

When 1 g of compound ( X ) is subjected to Kjeldahl's method for estimation of nitrogen, 15 $mL,1MH_{2}{SO}_{4}$ was neutralized by ammonia evolved. The percentage of nitrogen in compound $(X)$ is :

Options

A.21
B.0.42
C.42
D.0.21

Solution

eq. of $H_{2}{SO}_{4} =$ eq. of Ammonia

$\Rightarrow \frac{15 \times 1 \times 2}{1000} =$ moles of ammonia $\times 1$

⇒ Moles of ammonia $=$ moles of ' N '

⇒ Weight of nitrogen $= \frac{15 \times 1 \times 2}{1000} \times 14 = 0.42$

% weight of ' $N' = \frac{0.42}{1} \times 100 = 42\%$
