JEE Advanced 2021 · Paper 2, Chemistry question 10

Passage

Question Stem for Question Nos. 9 and 10

Reaction of x\mathbf x g of Sn with HCl quantitatively produced a salt. Entire amount of the salt reacted with y\mathbf y g of nitrobenzene in the presence of required amount of HCl to produce 1.29 g of an organic salt (quantitatively).

(Use Molar masses (in g mol−1^{-1}) of H, C, N, O, Cl and Sn as 1, 12, 14, 16, 35 and 119, respectively).

The value of y\mathbf y is ____.

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: 1.23

From the previous part, 0.01 mol of nitrobenzene is reduced. Nitrobenzene has M=123M=123, so
y=0.01×123=1.23 g.y=0.01\times123=1.23\text{ g}.
