Question

Statement 1: Equivalent weight of ozone in the change $O _3 \rightarrow O _2$ is $8$ .
Statement 2: 1 mole $O _3$ of on decomposition gives $\frac{3}{2}$ moles of $O _2$.

• A. Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is True; Statement 2 is correct explanation for Statement 1
• B. Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is True; Statement 2 is not correct explanation for Statement 1
• C. Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is False
• D. Statement 1 is False, Statement 2 is True

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$2 O _3 \rightarrow 3 O _2$
$2 \,mol O _3 \equiv 3\, mol\, O _2=3 \times 2$ eq O
$E _{ O }=\frac{ M }{6}$
$=\frac{48}{6}=8$
