    The number of coulombs required to reduce 12.3 g of nitrobenzene to aniline                                   [UPSEAT 2003]

    A)                 115800 C             

    B)                 5790 C

    C)                 28950 C

    D)                 57900 C

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

               \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{O}_{2}}+6{{H}^{+}}+6{{e}^{-}}\to \]\[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{5}}N{{H}_{2}}+2{{H}_{2}}O\]                    1 mole = 123 gm nitrogen requires 6 mole electron e                    \[=6\times 96500\ coulomb\]charge                                 \[\therefore \] 12.3 gm nitrobenzene will require \[=\frac{6\times 96500\times 12.3}{123}\] \[=6\times 9650\ =57900\ C.\]
