- Silicon carbide is a covalent or network solid while argon is a non-polar molecular solid.
- ZnO shows metal excess defect due to the presence of extra cations, i.e. Zn2+ ions in the interstitial sites which on heating changes into yellow due to loss of oxygen.
- ZnO → Zn2+ + \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)O2 + 2e–
- Group 12-16 compounds are imperfect covalent compounds in which there is appreciable ionic character, which depends on the electronegativities of the two combined elements, e.g., ZnS, CdS, etc.
Answer 12.
1. 2Fe3+ (aq) + 2I– (aq) → 2Fe2+ (aq) + I2 (s)
For the given reaction, n = 2, E° = 0.236 V

∴ ΔG0 = -45.55 KJ mol-1
2. Given:
I = 0.5 A
t = 2 hrs. = 2 × 60 × 60 s = 7,200 s
Q = I × t = 0.5 × 7200 = 3,600 C
96,500 C electricity flows to produce = 6.022 × 1023 electrons
Answer 13.
- [CO(NH3)5(SCN)]2+ shows linkage isomerism.
- Since in [NiCl4]2-,Cl– is a weak field ligand and it forms outer orbital complex and has impaired electrons, which imparts paramagnetic character to complex. On the other hand, in [Ni(CN)4]2-, CN– is a strong field ligand, forms an inner orbital complex and has paired electrons which imparts diamagnetic character to it.
- Low spin tetrahedral complexes are rarely observed because orbital splitting energies for tetrahedral complexes are not sufficiently large for forcing pairing.
Answer 14.
1. Multimolecular colloid and Associated colloids: Multimolecular colloids are formed by the aggregation of a large number of atoms or molecules which generally have diameter less than 1 nm, e.g. sols of gold, etc. While associated colloids are formed by the aggregation of large number of ions in concentrated solutions, e.g. micelles in soap.
2. Coagulation and Peptisation: Coagulation is a process of aggregating together the colloidal particles into large sized particles to form their precipitate while peptisation is a process of converting fresh precipitate into colloidal particles by shaking it with the dispersion medium in the presence of small amount of a suitable electrolyte.
3. Homogeneous catalysis and Heterogeneous catalysis: Homogeneous catalysis is the phenomenon of altering the rate of a reaction when the catalyst has the same phase as the reactants while in heterogeneous catalysis, the catalyst has different phase than that of the reactants.
OR
- In milk, the dispersed phase is liquid fat particles and dispersion medium is water.
- Both physisorption and chemisorption depends upon the nature of adsorbent and adsorbate.

Answer 15.
Answer 16.
(i) 1-Bromopentane (CH3CH2CH2CH2Br) is most reactive towards SN2 reaction.
Answer 17.
- Zone refining: This method is based on the principle that impurities are more soluble in melt than in the solid form of metal.
- Froth floatation process: This method is based on the principle that the metal particles and impurities having different wetting properties.
- Chromatography: It is based on the principle that different components of a mixture are absorbed on an absorbent to different extent.

B = Methanamine
C = Methyl isocyanide
A = Nitrobenzene
B = Aniline
C = N-phenylacetamide or Acetanilide
Answer 19.
Answer 20.
- Anionic detergents. These are the sodium salts of sulphonated long chain alcohols or hydrocarbons.
- Limited spectrum antibiotics are effective against a single organism or disease, e.g., Streptomycin.
- Antiseptics are the chemicals which either kill or prevent growth of microbes on living tissues, e.g., Penicillin.
Answer 21.
- Red phosphorus is less reactive than white phosphorus because white phosphorus possess angle strain where long angles are only 60° making it more reactive. Also, red phosphorus being polymeric is less reactive than white phosphorus which has discrete tetrahedral structure.
- Electron gain enthalpies of halogens are largely negative due to high effective nuclear charge and smaller size among period. They readily accept an electron to attain noble gas configuration.
- N2O5 is more acidic than N2O3 because higher the oxidation state, higher will be acidic character. N2O5 has +5 oxidation state and N2O3 has +3 oxidation state.
Answer 22.
- Due to the resonance, the electron pair on nitrogen atom gets delocalised towards the carbonyl group.
- Because of +I effect in methylamine electron density at nitrogen atom increases whereas in aniline resonance takes place and electron density on nitrogen atom decreases.
- Due to protonation of aniline/formation of anilinium ion.
Answer 23.
- Concerned, caring, socially alert, leadership (or any other 2 values)
- Starch
- α-Helix and β-pleated sheets
- Vitamin B/B1/B2/B6/C (any two)
Answer 24.
(a)
- The variability of oxidation state of transition metals is due to incompletely filled d-orbitals. In transitional elements ns and (n – 1) d electrons have equal energies approximately. Hence in addition to ns electrons, (n – 1) d electrons are also take part in the chemical bonding.
- Zn, Cd and Hg are soft metals because they do not exhibit covalency due to completely filled d-orbitals. Absence of unpaired d electrons causes weak metallic bonding.
- Because Mn2+ has a stable d5 configuration, whereas Cr3+ is more stable due to stable t32g configuration.
(b) Similarity: Both lanthanoids and actinoids show contraction in atomic radius and both are stable in +3 oxidation state.
Difference: Lanthanoid does not exhibit variable oxidation states, while actinoids show wide range of oxidation states.
OR
(a)
- Cr3+ ion is the most stable, because of its small size and t32g configuration.
- Mn3+ is a strong oxidising agent because after gaining one electron it is converted into Mn2+ which has a stable d5 configuration.
- Ti4+ is colourless due to d° configuration, i.e. no unpaired electrons/no electrons in d-orbitals.
(b)
- 2MnO4 + 16H+ + 5S2- → 2Mn2+ + 8H2O + 5S
- 2KMnO4 \(\underrightarrow { heat } \) K2MnO4 + MnO2 + O2
Answer 25.
(b)
- Molality (m). Number of moles of solute dissolved per kg of the solvent.
- Abnormal molar mass. If the molar mass calculated by using any of the colligative properties and it comes to be different than the theoretically expected molar mass.
OR
23.8 – Ps = 0.0106 × 23.8
23.8 – Ps = 0.2531
So, Ps = 23.8 – 0.2531
∴ Ps = 23.54 mm Hg
(b)

(i) They obey Raoult’s law over the entire range of concentration. | (i) They do not obey Raoult’s law over the entire range of concentration. |
(ii) Neither the heat is evolved or absorbed during dissolution. | (ii) Heat is evolved or absorbed during dissolution. |
(iii) Δmix H = 0 Δmin V = 0 |
(iii) Δmix H ≠ 0 Δmin V ≠ 0 |
Answer 26.
(b)
- Tollens’ reagent test. Add ammoniacal solution of sliver nitrate (Tollens’Reagent) in both the solutions taken in flasks separately. Butanal gives silver mirror at the side of the flask whereas butan-2-one does not. Therefore butanal gives Tollens’ test.
- Ferric chloride test. Add neutral FeCl3 in both the solutions, phenol reacts with neutral FeCl3 to form an iron-phenol complex giving violet colour but benzoic acid does not.
