Sol. In vapour phase order of basic strength will be :

C6H5NH2 < C6H5NHLH3 < C6H5N(CH3)2
Because 3amines are more basic in aquesous phase order of basic strength will be
C6H5N(CH3)2 < C6H5NH2 < C6H5NH(CH3)
becuase of polar solvent solubility increases in this order.

9.

State Raoults law for the solution containing volatile components. What is the similarity
between Raoults law and Henrys law ?

Sol. Accoridng to Raoults law, In a solution, the vapor pressure of a component at a given
tempreature is equal to the product of vapour pressure of the pure component and its mole
fraction.
i.e., PA PA0HA
According to Henrys law, The mass of a gas dissolved per unit volume of the solvent at a
constant temperature of the gas in equilibrium with the solution.
P = KHH
In both Raoults law and Henrys law partial pressure of the volatile component or gas is directly
propotional to the mole fraction in solution. Raoults Law become special case of Henrys law in

0
which KH become equal to vapour pressure of the pure component PA

i.e., PA0 K H

11. Write the principles of the following methods :
t1/2

(i)

Froth floatation method

(ii)

Electrolytic refining

Sol. (i)

Froth floatation. This method is widely used for the concentration of sulphide ores such
as zinc blende (ZnS), copper pyrites (CuFeS2), galena (PbS), etc. This method is based upon
the fact that the surface of sulphide ores ios preferentially wetted by oils while that of
gangue is preferentially wetted by water.
The ore is crushed inot a fine powder and mixedc with water to form a suspension in a
tank. To this suspension are added collectors (e.g. pine oil, xanthates, i.e., ethyl xanthate
and potassium ehtyl xanthate, and fatty acids) which enthance the non-wettability of the
ore particles and froth-stabilizers (e.g., cresols and aniline) which stabilize the froth.
During this process, the ore particles which are preferentially wetted by the oil becomes
lighter and thus rise to the surface along with the froth while the gangue particles which
are preferentially wetted by water become heavier and thus settle down at the bottom of
the tank. The froth is skimmed off. It is allowed to collapse and finally dired to get the
concentrated ore.
If the mineral to be concentrated consists of suphides of two metals, then by adjusting the
proportion of oil to water, it is often possible to seoparate one sulphide from the other.
Sometimes additional reagents called froth depressants are used to prevent one type of
sulphide ore particles from forming the froth with air bubbles. For example, sodium cyanide

56/1/3

P.T.O.

is used as a depressant to separate lead sulphide (PbS) ore form surface of ZnS ore. This is
due to the reason that NaCN forms a zinc complex, Na2[Zn(CN)4] one the surface of ZnS
thereby preventing it from the formation of froth Under these conditions, only PbS forms
froth and hence can be separated from ZnS ore.
4NaCN ZnS Na 2 [Zn(CN)4 ] Na 2S
Sod. tetracyanozincate (II)

(ii)

Electrolytic Refining : In this method, the impure metal is converted into a block which
forms the anode while cathode is made up of a pure strip of the same metal.Thse electrodes
are suspended in an electrolyte which is the solution of a soluble salt of the metal usually
a double salt of the metal. When electric current is passed, metal ions from the electrtolyte
are deposited at the cathode in the form of pure metal while an equivalent amount of
metal dissolves from the anode and goes into the electrolyte solution as metal ions, i.e.,

Anode :

M(s) M n (aq ) ne

Cathode : Mn (aq ) ne M (s )
