  • Q1

    A cubic solid is made of two elements X and Y. Atoms Y are at the corners of the cube and X at the body centre. What is the formula of the compound?

    Marks:1
    Answer:

    The contribution due to Y atoms at corner = 1/8
    Number of Y atoms at the corner = 8 x 1/8 = 1
    The contribution due to X atoms at the body centre = 1
    Hence, the
    formula of the compound = XY

    Two liquids A and B boil at 145°C and 190°C respectively. Which of them has a higher vapour pressure at 80°C?

    Marks:1
    Answer:

    A has higher vapour pressure than B at 800C because boiling point of A is lower than B.

  • Q3

    For the reaction A B, the rate of reaction becomes twenty seven times when the concentration of A is increased three times. What is the order of the reaction?

    Marks:1
    Answer:

    Rate law expression suggest that,
    rate = k [A]n  
    or, r = k [A]n
    according to question

    27 r = k[3A]n -------------- (ii)

    27 r = 3nk[A]n

    27 r = 3nr                

    27 = 3n

    33 = 3n

    n = 3  
    Hence, order of reaction is 3

    Give a chemical test to distinguish between aniline and N-methyl aniline.

    Marks:1
    Answer:

    Aniline gives carbylamine test but N-methyl aniline does not give this test. In this test when aniline is heated with chloroform and alcoholic KOH it forms foul smelling carbylamine.

    What is meant by entropy driven reaction? How can a reaction with positive changes of enthalpy and entropy be made entropy driven?

     out of syllabus

     

    Marks:2
    Answer:

    The reaction where H is positive but -TS is numerically larger then it is known as entropy driven reaction. 
     G = H -TS
    G should be negative for spontaneous reaction.
    The reaction will become entropy driven if
    (i) S is positive and is small but T must be large.
     

    (ii)S is positive and is large but T must be small.
