Welcome to the NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Chemistry - Chapter States of Matter. This page offers a step-by-step solution to the specific question from Exercise 1, Question 6:
The drain cleaner, Drainex contains small bits of aluminum which react with caustic soda to produce dihydrogen. What volume of dihydrogen at 20 °C and one bar will be released when 0.15g of aluminum reacts?
. With detailed answers and explanations for each chapter, students can strengthen their understanding and prepare confidently for exams. Ideal for CBSE and other board students, this resource will simplify your study experience.The drain cleaner, Drainex contains small bits of aluminum which react with caustic soda to produce dihydrogen. What volume of dihydrogen at 20 °C and one bar will be released when 0.15g of aluminum reacts?
Aluminium reacts with caustic soda in accordance with the reaction
The reaction of aluminium with caustic soda can be represented as:

Therefore volume of hydrogen at STP released when 0.15g of Al reactsv
=0.15 x 3 x 22.4 /54 = 187ml
Now P1 = 1 bar,
P2 = 1 bar
T1 = 273 K
T2 = 20 + 273 = 293 K
V1 = 187 ml
V2 = x
When pressure is held constant,then
V2 = P1 V1 T2 / P2 T1
OR
x = 1 X 187 X 293 / 0.987 X 273
= 201 ml
Therefore, 201 mL of dihydrogen will be released.
