Ans.

Radius A+ / X- = 95/181 = 0.5 Which lies between 0.414 - 0.732 A + X- has octahedral crystallattice with co-ordination numbers A + : X- as 6:6 each.

Q.12.

Differentiate between molarity and molarity of solution. When and why is molarity preferred over molarity in handling solutions in chemistry ?

Ans.

Molarity of a solution equals number of moles of solute in one litre of the solution but molarity of a solution refers to the number of moles of solute dissolved in one kg. of the solvent.

Molarity of a solution is preferred for expressing the concentration in procedures where temperature changes may occur because molarity unlike molarity does not change with temperature. Colligative properties like depression of ferrzing point,

D Tf and elevation of boiling point DTb are proportional to molarity DTb a molarity and DTf a molarity

 
Q.13

Define the term 'entropy'. How does TDS determine the spontaneity of process ?

Ans.

Entrophy is the property of a system which describes the disorder in it. The more the disorder in the system greater its entropy.

For any spontaneous reaction DG should be negative By the relation DG = DH - TDS if DH is + ve, this reaction will be spontaneous only when DS is positive and TDS is greater than DH. Then DG will be -ve.

 
Q.14. With the help of a graph expl [ question to be inserted ]
Ans. For a strong electrolyte the graphÙ m Vs (C)1/2 the concentration shows that at low concentration Ù m , reach a limiting valve. Extapulation of this line gives Ù a/m of the electrolyte. But for a weak electrolyte like CH3COOH there occurs a steep rise in

Ù m with continuous decrease in concentration. This is due to an increase in the number of ions with continuous decrease in concentration the graph shows that at no point does it interest the line of infinite dilution (c = 0)1/2. Hence it is not possible to determine

µ  Ù m of weak electrolyte by graphic method.

 
Q.15. Differentiate between :

(i) rate of reaction and rate constant of a reaction.

(ii) order of a reaction and its molecularity.

 
Ans.
(i) Rate of reaction Rate constant of reaction.

(a) It refers to the rate of change in the concentration of reactant or the reactants. In Dx/Dt = k [A]m [B]x rate of reaction of reaction dx/dt.

(a) In the expression dx/dt = x[A]m [B]n for the reaction A + 2B --- 3C K (constant ) is the rate constant of the reaction. It is numerically equal to the rate of reaction if concentration of reactant (-s) is unity.

(b) The units of rate of reaction are mol L-1, S-1 for all orders of reaction.

(b) Units of K are different for different orders k has units - S-1 and for second order L mol-1 S-1 for zero order reaction k has same units as the rate of reaction ( mol L-1 S-1)

(c) Rate of reaction changes with change in the concentration reactants.

 
ii.
Order of reaction Molecularity

1. Order of a reaction is the sum of the exponents of concentration terms of reactants as in experimentally deter-minded rate equation for any reaction. Example if for A+2 -- 3C.

Rate =K[A]m X [B]n order of this reaction is (m+n)

 

1. Molecularity is equal equal to the number of molecules as given in the stoichiometric equation for the reaction. For A + 2B -- 3C

molecularity = 1 + 2 = 3

 

2. Order of a reaction may be a whole numbers or a fraction or zero.

2. Molecularity of a reaction can only be a whole number.

3. It can be determined experimentally with reference to the kinetic data. It has no relation with the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

3. It is calculated by simply adding the number of molecules of the reactants in balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

Q.16.

Calculate the energy change in J/mol for the nuclear reaction

0/1 n -----> 1/1 p + 0/1 e

Decrease in mass = 1.00867 - 1.00728

= 0.00139 amu.

Energy change per atom = mc 2

= 0.00139 x 1.66 x 10-27 x (3 x 108 ms)2

Energy change per mole = 0.00139 x 1.66 x 10-27 x (3x108)2 x 6.02 x 1023

= 1.24 x 10-27 Jmol-1

Q.20.

What is meant by 'Catenation'? How does the catenation tendency for elements of group 14 vary ?

Ans.

Catenation is the property of interlinking of atoms of the same element to from long, branched or cyclic chains.


This phenomenon is shown by carbon, sulphur and phosphorous.

  • Tendency for contenation decreases in going down group 14 C-C>Si-Si>Ge-Ge>Sn-Sn>Pb-Pb

This is due to decrease in the strength of M-M bond C-C>Si-Si>Ge - Ge > Sn-Sn > Pb - Pb

 
Q.21.

Using the Valence Bond approach, explain the shape and magnetic behaviour of [Ni (NH3)6]2+. Given : At. No. of Ni = 28.

The position and momentum of the moving electron. The position and momentum of the moving electron in uncertain.

(b)D V = 0.02 / 100 x 500 = 0.1ms-1

m = 9.1 x 10-31kg

m DV x D x = h /4p x 1 /mDV

= 6.6 x 10-34 x 7 / 4 x 22 x 1 / 9.1 x 10-31x0.1

Q.28.

Assuming complete dissociation, calculate the expected freezing point of a solution prepared by dissolving 6.00g. of Glauber's salt, Na2SO4. 10H2O in 0.100 kg of H2O. [ Given for water, Kr = 1.86 K kg mol-1 Atomic masses : Na = 23, S = 32, O = 16, H = 1 amu]

Ans. Na2SO4 -----------> 2Na+ + SO4 (3 particles)

Molar mass of Na2 SO4 - 10H2O = 44 + 32 + 64 + 10 x 18 = 322.

Wa = Mass of H2O = 0.1 kg = 100 g

WB = Mass of the solute = 6.0 g

Kf = 1.86 k kg. mol-1 and i (Vont Hof factor) = 3

By the relation DTf = kf / MB x 1WB/WA x 1000 x i

= 1.86 / 322 x 6.0 / 100 x 1000 x 3 = 0.346k

Freezing point of solution = 273 - 0.346 k = .654 k.

 
Q.29.

Calculate the standard free energy change for the following reaction at 270 C. f

H2 (g) + I2(g) -- 2HI (g) ; D H0 = + 51.9 kJ

[Given S0 H2 = 130.6JK-1 mol-1, S0 I2 = 116.7 JK-1

mol-1 S0 HI = 206.3 JK-1 mol-1

Predict whether the reaction is feasible at 270 or not.

Ans. D S = S0 (products) - S0 (reactants)

= S0 (2HI) - [S0(H2) + S0 (I2)]

= 2 x 206.3 - (130.6 + 116.7)

= 412.6 - 247.3 = 165.3Jk-1

DH0 = 51.9 kJ

= 51900 J

DG0 = DH0 - TDS0

= 51900 - 300 x 165.3

= 51900 - 49590 = 2310 Joule

Since DG0 is +ve the reaction is not feasible at 300 k.

(i) NH3 has higher boiling point than PH3

(ii) H3PO3 is a diprotic acid

(iii) OF2 should be called oxygen difluoride and not fluorine oxide.

 
Ans.

(a) Due to high electronegativity of nitrogen atom of NH3 its molecules are associated through hydrogen bonds

 

H H H

| | |

H---N-----H---N-----H-----N--H

| |

H H

It has a higher boiling point than PH3. Phosphorous is less electrogengative than nitrogen. No hydrogen bonds exist between PH3 molecules.

(b) Experiments show that H3PO3 has reducing properties. One of its three hydrogen atoms is directly attached to P-atom as in the structure

H

HO-----O---OH

||

O

This H-atom is not ionised while two other hydrogens are ionisable they exist as - OH groups. This explains why H3PO3 is diprotic.

(c) in OF2 oxygen is electropositive with respect to fluorine OF2 is called oxygen fluride and not fluorine oxide.
