Every year in our country about 25,000 people are killed and 500, 000 more are injured as a result of drunk driving. In spite of efforts to educate the public about the dangers of driving while intoxicated and stiffer penalties for drunk driving offenses, law enforcement agencies still have to devote a great deal of work to remove drunk drivers from roads. The police often use a device called a breath analyzer to test drivers suspected to being drunk. The chemical basis of this device is a redox reaction. A sample of the drivers breath is drawn into the breath analyzer, where it is treated with an acidic solution of potassium dichromate. 3CH3CH2OH + 2K2Cr2O7 + 8H2SO4 3CH3COOH + 2Cr2(SO4)3 + 2K2SO4 + 11H2O The drivers blood alcohol level can be determined readily by measuring the degree of this colour change (read from a calibrated meter on the instrument.)

[Ans: -1] 1.249g of a sample of pure BaCO3 and impure CaCO3 containing some CaO was treated with dil.HCl and it evolved 168ml of CO2 at NTP. From this solution, BaCrO4 was precipitatnd washed. The precipitate was dissolved in dilute sulphuric acid and diluted to 100ml. 10ml of this solution, when treated with Kl solution, liberated iodine which required exactly 20ml of 0.05N Na2S2O3. Calculate the percentage of CaO in the sample. [Ans: 14.09] A 2.0g sample of a mixture containing sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate and sodium sulphate is heated till the evolution of CO2 ceases. The volume CO2 at 750mm Hg pressure and at 298K is measured to be 123.9 ml. A 1.5g of the sample requires 150ml of M/10 HCl for complete neutralization. Calculate the percentage composition of the components of the mixture [Ans: 31.5]
