80 mL of a hydrocarbon on mixing with 264 mL of oxygen in a closed U-tube undergoes complete combustion. The residual gases after cooling to 273 K occupy 224 mL. When the system is treated with KOH solution, the volume decreases to 64 mL. The formula of the hydrocarbon is :
What is the energy (in J atom$^{-1}$) required for the following process? $Li^{2+}(g) \rightarrow Li^{3+}(g) + e^-$ (Take the ionization energy for the H atom in the ground state as $2.18 \times 10^{-18}$ J atom$^{-1}$)
Consider the following reduction processes : $\mathrm{Al}^{3+}+3 \mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Al}(\mathrm{s}), \mathrm{E}^{0}=-1.66 \mathrm{~V}$ $\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}+\mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Fe}^{2+}, \mathrm{E}^{0}=+0.77 \mathrm{~V}$ $\mathrm{Co}^{3+}+\mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Co}^{2+}, \mathrm{E}^{0}=+1.81 \mathrm{~V}$ $\mathrm{Cr}^{3+}+3 \mathrm{e}^{-} \longrightarrow \mathrm{Cr}(\mathrm{s}), \mathrm{E}^{\circ}=-0.74 \mathrm{~V}$ The tendency to act as reducing agent decreases in the order :
