EUDIOMETRY-VOLUME-VOLUME ANALYSIS OF GAS:

The volumetric analysis of gaseous reaction using eudiometric tube called Eudiometry or “Volume analysis of gas”
In eudiometric tube all the measurement of volume is done at constant pressure and temperature and given gaseous reaction at least two components are gases.
The edudiometric relationship amongst gases, when they react with one another, is governed by two laws, they are illustrated as, Gay-Lussac law and Avogadro’s law.
(1) Gay-Lussac Law:
According to Gay Lussac’s law, the volumes of gaseous reactants reacted and the volumes of gaseous products formed, are always bear a simple ratio at same temperature and pressure.
(2) Avogadro’s Law:
According Avogadro law A samples of different gases which contain the same number of molecules occupy the same volume at the same temperature and pressure. This law is also known as Avogadro’s hypothesis and given by Amadeo Avogadro in 1812.
ILLUSTRATION OF EDUDIOMETRY:
Gaseous reactions are studied in a closed graduated tube open at one end and the other closed end of which is provided with platinum terminals for the passage of electricity through the mixture of gases, Such a tube is known as Eudiometric tube and hence the name Eudiometry also used for “Volume analysis of Gas”.
During Gas analysis, the Eudiometer tube filled with mercury is inverted over a trough containing mercury. A known volume of the gas or gaseous mixture to be studied is next introduced, which displaces an equivalent amount of mercury. Next, a known excess of oxygen is introduced and the electric spark is passed, whereby the combustible material gets oxidized.
REAGENT USE FOR ABSORPTION OF GASES IN EUDIOMETRIC TUBE:
The various reagents used for absorbing different gases are
O3 -- Turpentine oil
O2 - Alkaline pyrogallol
NO - FeSO4 solution
Cl2, SO2, CO2 -- Alkali solution NaOH, KOH, etc.
NH3, HCl - Water
H2O, - CuSO4, CaCl2
H2O(g) – Con H2SO4
CO – Ammonical Cuprus chloride solution (NH4OH+ Cu2Cl2 )
SPECIAL NOTE:
(1)  In Eudiometric tube Nitrogen does not react.
(2) Water vapour produced during the reaction can be determined by noting contraction in volume caused due to cooling, as by cooling the steam formed during combustion forms liquid (water) which occupies a negligible volume as compared to the volumes of the gases considered.
(3) The excess of oxygen left after the combustion is also determined by difference if other gases formed during combustion have already been determined.

APPLICATION OF EUDIOMETRY: Data collected from eudiometric tube experiment a number of useful conclusions regarding gaseous reactions can be drawn.
(1) Molecular formulae of Gaseous Hydrocarbons.
(2) The composition of Gaseous mixtures.
(3) Molecular formulae of Gases.

(4) Volume-volume relationship Gaseous reactions.

(1) Determination of Molecular formula of Hydrocarbon using Eudiometry: 

A known amount of hydrocarbon is taken into a Eudiometry tube. O2 gas is then inserted to cause complete combustion of hydrocarbon & the reaction mixture is cooled back to the original room temperature. This gives 1st volume contraction V1C the resultant gaseous mixture is then passed through alc. KOH which gives second volume contraction, V11C. These data can help to calculate the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon as explained below.
Step 1: Write down the balanced chemical reaction along with their states.
Step 2: Write down Volume of components before reaction V(HC), V(O2).

Step 3: Write down Volume of components after the reaction using Gay Lussac Law, (After identifying limiting reagent)
Step 4:  Using Given Data
This will give the value of “y’
V11C = Due to change in volume because of absorption of CO2 in alc KOH
V11C = xV (Hydrocarbon)
Hence, both x and y can be calculated.
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE: (1) 10 ml of nitrogen and 40 ml of Hydrogen reacts to produce NH3 gas fined  out the final volume and volume contraction If :

ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE: (4) 10 ml of gaseous Hydrocarbon burns Completely in 80 ml of Oxygen , the remaining gases occupy 70 ml of volume , this volume become 50 ml and on treatment with KOH find out the formula of Hydrocarbon .

Assuming ideal gas behaviour , calculate the mole fraction of ethane (C2H6) and ethene (C2H4) in mixture (IIT 1915)

GRAVIMETRY- WEIGHT-WEIGHT ANALYSIS:

Analysis of mass of reactants and products of given chemical reaction is known as Gravimetric analysis.
Two important method deal with the trapping and weighing of product in solid and gaseous state
(1) PRECIPITATATION METHOD: This method uses for metallic elements in their ionic form react with negative counter ions to produced stable (Insoluble) precipitate.
