(ii) Denaturation: When a protein in its native form is subjected to physical change like change in
temperature or chemical change like change in pH, the hydrogen bonds are disturbed. Due to
this, globules unfold and helix get uncoiled and proteins loses its biological activity. During
denaturation 2° and 3° structures of proteins are destroyed but 1° structure remains intact, e.g.,
coagulation of egg white on boiling.
15. The following reactions of glucose cannot be explained by its open chain structure.
(i) Despite having the aldehyde group glucose does not give 2, 4-DNP test, Schiffs test and it does
not form the hydrogen sulphite addition product with NaHSO3 .
(ii) The pentacetate of glucose does not react with hydroxylamine indicating the absence of free
—CHO group.

two isomeric mono methyl derivatives known as a-D glucoside and methyl b-D glucoside.
These glucosides do not react with hydrogen cyanide or with hydroxylamine.
16. (i) As the atomic size of nitrogen is smaller than phosphorus, therefore electron density on
nitrogen atom is higher than that on phosphorus atom. Consequently the tendency of N in NH3
to donate its lone pair of electrons is much higher than that of P in PH3 . Thus, ammonia is
stronger base than phosphine.
(ii) In vapour state sulphur partly exists as S 2 molecule which has two unpaired electrons in the

micro-organism and hence called biodegradable detergents, e.g., sodium–4–(1-dodecyl) benzene
sulphonate.
CH3 ¾ (CH2 ) 11 ¾ ¾ SO-3 Na +
Non-biodegradable detergents: Detergents having branched hydrocarbon chains are not easily

19. Semiconductor: These are the solids with conductivities in the intermediate range from 10 -6 to
10 4 ohm -1 m -1 .
Semiconductors are of two types
(i) n-type of semiconductors (ii) p-type of semiconductors
n-type semiconductor: When a silicon or germanium crystal is doped with group 15 element like
P or As, the dopant atom forms four covalent bonds like a Si or Ge atom but the fifth electron, not
used in bonding, becomes delocalised and contribute its share towards electrical conduction. Thus
silicon or germanium doped with P or As is called n-type semiconductor, n indicative of negative,
since it is the electron that conducts electricity.
p-type semiconductor: When silicon or germanium is doped with group 13 element like B or Al,
the dopant has only with three, valence electrons. An electron vacancy or a hole is created at the
place of the missing fourth electron. Here, this hole moves through the crystal like a positive
charge giving rise to electrical conductivity. Thus Si or Ge doped with B or Al is called p type of
semiconductor, (P stands for positive hole) since it is the positive hole that is responsible for
conduction.

21. Lyophilic sols: Lyophilic sols are those sols in which the particles of dispersed phase have great
affinity for the dispersion medium, e.g., sols of gum, gelatine, starch, etc.
Lyophobic sols: In this type of sols the particles of dispersed phase have little or no affinity for
the dispersion medium, e.g., gold sol, Fe (OH) 3 sol, As 2 O3 sol., etc.
Lyophobic sols easily coagulate on the addition of small amount of electrolyte because these are
not stable. The stability of Lyophobic sols is only due to the presence of charge on the colloidal
particles, on the other hand stability of lyophilic sol. is due to charge as well as solvation of
colloidal particles.
22. (i) The principle of froth floatation process is that sulphide ore particle are preferentially wetted by
pine oil, whereas the gangue particles are wetted by water.
(ii) Zone refining is based on the principle that the impurities are more soluble in (liquid state) than
in the solid state of the metal.
(iii) The principle of refining by liquation is that the impurities whose melting points are higher than
the metal are left behind on melting the impure metal. Hence pure metal separates out.

26. (i) In aniline due to resonance the lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom are delocalized over
the benzene ring. As a result, the electron density on the nitrogen decreases. On the other hand,
in methyl amine +I effect of CH3 increases the electron density on the nitrogen atom. Therefore
aniline is a weaker base than methyl amine and hence its pK b value is higher than that of
methyl amine.

29. (i) This is because transition metals have strong metallic bonds as they have a large number of
unpaired electrons.
(ii) The catalytic activity of transition metals is attributed to the following reasons:
(a) Because of their variable oxidation states transition metals form unstable intermediate
compounds and provide a new path with lower activation energy for the reaction.
(b) In some cases, the transition metal provides a suitable large surface area with free valencies
on which reactants are adsorbed.
(iii) This is due to poorer shielding by 5f electrons in actinoids than that by 4f electron in the
lanthanoids.
(iv) This is because half filled d-subshell (3d 5 ) in Mn 2+ is more stable.

(v) This is because scandium has partially filled d orbitals in the ground state (3d 1 4s 2 ).

(a) (i) This is due to steric and electronic reasons. Sterically, the presence of two relatively large
substituents in ketones hinders the approach of nucleophile to carbonyl carbon than in
aldehydes having only one such substituent. Electronically two alkyl groups reduce the
positivity of the carbonyl carbon more effectively in ketones than in aldehydes.
(ii) This is due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding in carboxylic acids.
(iii) Due to greater electronegativity of oxygen than carbon the C atom of the C = O bond
acquires a partial positive charge in aldehydes and ketones and hence readily undergo
nucleophilic addition reactions.

9. Raoult’s law: It states that for a solution of volatile liquids the partial pressure of each component
is directly proportional to its mole fraction.
Mathematically
PA µ x A PB µ x B
PA = PAo x A PB = PBo x B
Positive deviation from Raoult’s law: In this type of deviation the partial pressure of each
component of solution is greater than that calculated from Raoult’s law, i.e., PA > PAo x A &
PB > PBo x B . Example: A solution of water and ethanol.
Negative deviation from Raoult’s: In this type of deviation the partial pressure of each component
of solution is less than that expected from Raoult’s law, i.e., PA < PAo x A & PB < PBo x B .
Example: A solution of acetone and chloroform.

for determining molar masses of macromolecules because
(i) Osmotic pressure is measured at the room temperature and the molarity of solution is used
instead of molality.
(ii) Compared to other colligative properties, its magnitude is large even for very dilute solutions.

(a) n-type semiconductor: When a silicon or germanium crystal is doped with group 15 element
like P or As, the dopant atom forms four covalent bonds like a Si or Ge atom but the fifth
electron, not used in bonding, becomes delocalised and contribute its share towards electrical
conduction. Thus silicon or germanium doped with P or As is called n-type semiconductor, n
indicative of negative, since it is the electron that conducts electricity.
p-type semiconductor: When silicon or germanium is doped with group 13 element like B or
Al, the dopant has only with three, valence electrons. An electron vacancy or a hole is created
at the place of the missing fourth electron. Here, this hole moves through the crystal like a
positive charge giving rise to electrical conductivity. Thus Si or Ge doped with B or Al is
called p type of semiconductor, (P stands for positive hole) since it is the positive hole that is
responsible for conduction.
(b) F-centres: Electrons trapped in anion vacancies are called F-centres. They impart characteristic
colour to the compound and increase electrical conductivity.
(c) Ferromagnetism: Ferromagnetic substances are those substances which are strongly attracted
by external magnetic field, e.g., (iron, cobalt, nickle and CrO2 etc.] Ferromagnetism arises due
to spontaneous alignment of magnetic moments in the same direction.
Alignment of magnetic moments in ferromagnetic substance.

26. (i) In aniline, due to resonance, the lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom are delocalized over
the benzene ring. As a result, the electron density on the nitrogen decreases. On the other hand,
in methyl amine +ve I effect of CH3 increases the electrondensity on the nitrogen atom.
Therefore aniline is a weaker base than methyl amine and hence its pK b value is higher than
that of methyl amine.
(ii) Aniline being a Lewis base reacts with lewis acid AlCl 3 to form a salt. Due to this, N atom of
aniline acquires positive charge and hence acts as a strong deactivation group for further
reaction.
(iii) Ethyl amine is freely soluble in water because it forms hydrogen bonds with water molecules.

27. (i) Primary structure of proteins: The sequence in which various amino acids are arranged in a
protein is called its primary structure. Any change in the sequence of amino acids creates
different protein which alters biological functions.
(ii) Denaturation: When a protein in its native form is subjected to physical change like change in
temperature or chemical change like change in pH, the hydrogen bonds are disturbed. Due to
this, globules unfold and helix get uncoiled and proteins lose its biological activity. During
denaturation 2° and 3° structures of proteins are destroyed but 1° structure remains intact, e.g.,
coagulation of egg white on boiling.

(b) (i) As the atomic size of nitrogen is smaller than phosphorus, electron density on nitrogen
atom is higher than that on phosphorus atom. Consequently, the tendency of N in NH3 to
denote its lone pair of electrons is much higher than that of P in PH3 . Thus NH3 is a
stronger base than PH3 .
(ii) In vapour state sulphur partly exists as S 2 molecule which has two unpaired electrons in
the antibonding p * orbital like O2 and hence exhibits paramagnetic behaviour.
(iii) Because of hydrogen bonding HF exists as associated molecules in a liquid and therefore
has high boiling point. Due to large size and low electronegativity of chlorine no hydrogen
bonding is present in HCl, only Vander Waal forces are present. The boiling of HCl is
therefore low.

23. (i) Zone refining is based on the principle that the impurities are more soluble in the liquid state
than in the solid state of metal.
(ii) In electrolytic refining the impure metal is made to act as anode. A strip of the same metal in
pure form is used as cathode. They are put in a suitable electrolytic bath containing soluble salt
of the same metal. When electric current is passed, impure metal forms metal ions which are

(a) The conductivity of a solution at any given concentration is the conductance of one unit volume
of solution kept between two platinum electrodes with unit area of cross section at a distance of
unit length.
On increasing the concentration of solution, the number of ions per unit volume of solution
increases and thus its conductivity increases.
Molar conductivity ( L m ) of a solution at a given concentration is the conductance of the
volume V of solution containing one mole of electrolyte kept between two electrodes with area
of cross section A and distance of unit length. Therefore
kA
Lm = =k
l
Since l = 1 and A = V (volume containing 1 gram mole of electrolyte)
L m = kV
Molar conductivity increases with decrease in concentration. This is because the total volume,
V of solution containing one mole of electrolyte also increases. It has been found that decrease
in K on dilution of solution is more than compensated by increase in its volume.

The concentration of H2 O is so large that it hardly undergoes any change during the reaction,
therefore, it does not appear in the rate law.
12. (i) This is because Mn 2+ is more stable as it has exactly half filled configuration 3d 5 4s 0 .
(ii) Cu 2+ (aq) is much more stable than Cu + (aq). This is because, although second ionization
enthalpy of copper is large but for Cu 2+ (aq) is much more negative than that of Cu + (aq) and
therefore, it more than compensates for the second ionisation enthalpy of copper. Therefore,
Cu + ion aqueous solution undergoes disproportionation.

soft drinks because it is unstable at cooking temperature.

24. (i) As there is very little energy difference between 4s and 3d orbitals, electrons from both energy
levels can be used for chemical bond formation. Therefore all elements except Sc and Zn, of the
first transition series show a number of oxidation states as shown in table.
Oxidation states of the first series transition elements (the most common ones are in bold letter)

(ii) Atomic radii of the first transition series decreases from Sc to Cr, then remains almost constant
till Ni and then increases from Cu to Zn.
The reason of this variation in atomic radii has been attributed to the increase in nuclear charge
in the beginning of the series. But as the electrons continue to be filled in d-orbitals, they screen
the outer 4s electrons from the influence of nuclear charge. When the increased nuclear charge
and the increased screening effect balance each other in the middle of transition series, the
atomic radii becomes almost constant (Mn to Fe). Towards the end of the series, the repulsive
interaction between electrons in d orbitals become very dominant. As a result there is an
expansion of the electron cloud; consequently, the atomic size increases.
(iii) Except Zn 2+ , all other divalent gaseous ions of the first series of the transition elements contain
unpaired electrons in their 3d subshell and are therefore paramagnetic in nature.
The magnetic moment (m) of the elements of the first transition series can be calculated with the
unpaired electrons ( n) by the spin-only formula
m = n ( n + 2) B. M.

23. (i) NH3 is stronger base than PH3. This is because the lone pair of electrons on N atom in NH3 is
directed and not diffused as it is in PH3 due to larger size of phosphorus and hence more
available for donation.
(ii) Sulphur has a greater tendency for catenation than oxygen because S-S bond is stronger than
O – O bond due to less interelectronic repulsions.
(iii) Bond dissociation energy of F2 is less than Cl2 this is due to relatively large electron – electron
repulsion among the lone pairs in F2 molecule where they are much closer to each other than in
case of Cl2.

As a result of resonance, N–O bond length is average of single bond and double bond whereas
N–OH bond has purely single bond character. Therefore, N–O bond is shorter than N–OH
bond in HNO3.
(ii) S atom in SF4 is not sterically protected as it is surrounded by only four F atoms, so attack of
H2O molecules can take place easily and hence hydrolysis takes place easily. In contract, in
SF6, S is sterically protected by six F atoms. Therefore does not allow H2O molecules to attack
S atoms. As a result of this, SF6 does not undergo hydrolysis.
(iii) In XeF2, Xe is sp3d hybridised having 2 bond pair and 3 lone pair of electrons. The presence of
3 lone pair of electrons in Xe F2 at equidistance to have minimum repulsion is responsible for

1. Schottky defect
21. Multimolecular colloids: In this type of colloids, colloidal particles are aggregates of atoms or
molecules each having size less than 1nm, e.g., sulphur sol, gold sol.
Macromolecular colloids: In this type of colloids, colloidal particles are themselves large molecules
of colloidal dimensions, e.g., starch, proteins, polyethene, etc.
Associated colloids: There are certain substances which at low concentrations behave as normal
electrolyte, but at higher concentrations exhibit colloidal behaviour due to the formation of
aggregates. Such colloids are known as associated colloids, e.g., soaps and detergents.
24. (i) Fluorine does not exhibit any positive oxidation state as it is the most electro-negative element
and does not have d orbitals in its valance shell.
(ii) This is due to low ionization enthalpy of xenon.
(iii) Phosphorus is much more reactive than nitrogen as the P–P single bond (213 kJ mol -1 ) is
much weaker than N º N triple bond (941.4 kJ mol -1 ).
27. Difference between antiseptics and disinfectants.
l Antiseptics are chemical substances which prevent the growth of micro-organisms and may even
kill them but are not harmful to living tissues.
l Antiseptics are generally applied to living tissues such as wounds, cuts, ulcers and diseased skin
surfaces.
l Dettol, furacine, soframicine are antiseptics.
l Disinfectants are chemical substances which kill micro-organisms or stop their growth but are
harmful to human tissues.
l Disinfectants are applied to inanimate objects such as floor, drainage system, instrument, etc.
l Chlorine in the concentration of 0.2 to 0.4 ppm in aqueous solution and SO2 in very low
concentration are disinfectants.

(b) (i) Transition elements form many interstitial compounds as they are capable of entrapping
small atoms like H, C or N in the interstitial sites in their crystal lattice.
(ii) Cr 2+ is reducing as its configuration changes from d 4 to d 3 , the latter having a half
filled t2g configuration. On the other hand, the change from Mn 3+ to Mn 2+ results in the
half-filled d 5 configuration which has extra stability therefore Mn 3+ is oxidising.
(iii) This is because transition metals have strong metallic bonds as they have a large number
of unpaired electrons.

(b) (i) The atomic radii of transition metals decreases with atomic number in a series as the
nuclear charge increases due to poor shielding effect of d orbitals.
(ii) This is due to its high enthalpy of atomization and low hydration enthalpy.
(iii) This is due to much large third ionisation energy of Mn as Mn 2+ is very stable on
account of stable d 5 configuration.
OR
(a) Lanthanoid contraction: The steady decrease in the atomic and ionic radii of lanthanoids
with increase in atomic number is known as lanthanoid contraction.
Cause of lanthanoid contraction: As we move along the lanthanoid series, for every
additional proton in the nucleus, the corresponding electron goes into 4f -subshell, there is poor
shielding of one electron by another in this subshell due to the shapes of these f-orbitals. The
imperfect shielding is not able to counterbalance the effect of the increased nuclear charge.
Thus the net result is decrease in size with increase in atomic number.
Consequences:
(i) 5d series elements have nearly same radii as that of 4d-series.
(ii) The basic strength of hydroxides decreases from La(OH) 3 to Lu(OH) 3 .
(b) (i) Because the high hydration enthalpy of Cu 2+ easily compensates the second ionization
enthalpy of Cu.
(ii) Because strong ligand cause spin pairing giving rise to diamagnetic octahedral complex
which are very stable and have very large crystalfield stabilization energy. This splitting
energy overcomes the ionization enthalpy.
(iii) This is due to stability of Mn 2+ as it has half filled d 5 configuration.

22. (i) The positively charged colloidal particles of Fe(OH)3 get coagulated by the negatively charged
ions provided by electrolyte.
(ii) The path of light becomes visible due to scattering of light by colloidal particles (Tyndall
effect).
(iii) Electrophoresis takes place in which colloidal particles move towards the oppositely charged
electrode where they lose their charge and get coagulated.
23. (i) Crystal field spliting: When the ligands approach the central metal ion, the electrons in the
d-orbitals of central metal ion will be repelled by the lone pairs of the ligands. Because of these
interactions the degeneracy of d orbitals of the metal ion is lost and these split into two sets of
orbitals having different energies. This is known as crystal field splitting, e.g., for d4,
configuration is t32g e1g in the presence of weak field ligand.
(ii) Linkage isomerism: The isomers which have same molecular formula but differ in the linkage
of ligand atom to the central metal atom are called linkage isomers, e.g.,
[Co(NH3 ) 5 NO2 ]Cl 2 and [Co(NH3)5ONO]Cl2
Pentaamminenitrito–N–Cobalt (III) chloride, pentaamminenitrito–O–Cobalt(III) chloride
(iii) Ambidentate ligand: A ligand which can bind to the central metal atom through any of the
two donor atoms present in it is called ambidentate ligand, e.g., NO2 can bind to metal either

24. (i) Ethanol undergoes intermolecular hydrogen bonding due to the presence of a hydrogen
attached to oxygen atom. As a result, ethanol exist as associated molecules and hence it has
higher boiling point than methoxy ethane which does not form hydrogen bonds.
(ii) Phenol is stronger acid than ethanol because the phenoxide ion left after the release of proton is
stabilized by resonance but ethoxide ion is not. Moreover, ethoxide ion is destabilised by +I
effect of ethyl group.
(iii) Due to –I effect or –R effect of –NO2 group, the resulting phenolate ion is more stable than
phenoxide ion. Therefore o- and p--nitrophenols are more acidic than phenol.
25. (i) The catalytic activity of transition metals is attributed to the following reasons:
(a) Because of their variable oxidation states transition metals form unstable intermediate
compounds and provide a new path with lower activation energy for the reaction.
(b) In some cases, the transition metal provides a suitable large surface area with free
vacancies on which reactants are adsorbed.
(ii) This due to filling of 4f orbitals which have poor shielding effect or due to lanthanoid contraction.
(iii) This is due to comparable energies of 5f, 6d and 7s orbital in actinoids.

of colloidal dimensions, e.g., starch, proteins, polyethene, etc.
Associated colloids: There are certain substances which at low concentrations behave as normal
electrolyte, but at higher concentrations exhibit colloidal behaviour due to the formation of
aggregates. Such colloids are known as associated colloids, e.g., soaps and detergents.
22. (i) Pig iron into steel: Pig iron is converted into steel by heating in a converter. A blast of oxygen
diluted with carbon dioxide is blown through the converter. Oxygen reacts with impurities and
raised the temperature to 2173K. Carbon gets oxidised to CO which burns off at the mouth of
the converter. Oxides of silicon and Mg form slag. When the flame is stopped, slag is tapped
off and other metals like Mn, Cr, Ni, W may be added in the end.

This is due to filling of 4f orbitals which have poor shielding effect.
(ii) The E° value for the Mn3+/Mn2+ couple is much positive than Cr3+/Cr2+ couple or Fe3+/Fe2+
couple because Mn3+ ion receiving an electron gets d-subshell half-filled which is highly
stable. While in case of Fe3+ d-sub shell is already half-filled, so it does not receive electron
easily.
(iii) This is because fluorine and oxygen are highly electronegative elements and have small size.

28. (a) Kohlrausch Law: “The molar conductance of an electrolyte at infinite dilution is equal to the
sum of the molar conductances of the two ions, i.e., the cation and the anion.”

(b) Given Lom ( HCl) = 426 S cm 2 mol -1
Lom ( NaCl) = 126 S cm 2 mol -1
Lom ( CH3 COONa) = 91S cm 2 mol -1
Lom ( CH3 COOH) = Lom ( CH3 COO- ) + Lom ( H+ )
Lom ( CH3 COONA) = Lom ( CH3 COO- ) + Lom ( Na + ) ...(1)
Lom ( NaCl) = Lom ( Na + ) + Lom ( Cl + ) ...(2)
Lom ( HCl) = Lom ( H+ ) + Lom ( Cl + ) ...(3)

Subtracting (2) from the sum of (1) and (3), we get:
Lom ( CH3 COO- ) + Lom ( Na + ) + Lom ( H+ ) + Lom ( Cl - ) - Lom (( Na + ) + Lom Cl - )
= Lom (CH3 COO- ) + Lom (H+ ) = Lom (CH3 COOH)

30. (a) Mechanism of nucleophilic addition reactions:
A nucleophile attacks the electrophilic carbon atom of the polar carbonyl group from a
direction approximately perpendicular to the plane of sp2 hybridized orbitals of carbonyl
carbon. The hybridization of carbon changes from sp2 to sp3 in this process and a tetrahedral
intermediate is produced. The intermediate captures a proton from the medium to give the
neutral product.

(i) Froth floatation method: This method is used to remove gangue from sulphide ores. In this
process a suspension of the powdered ore is made with water, some pine oil (collector) and
stablisers are added. A rotating paddle agitates the mixture and draws air in it. The froth is light
and it skimmed off.
(ii) Electro refining of metals: In this method, the impure metal is made to act as anode. A strip of
the same metal in pure form is used a cathode. They are put in a suitable electrolyte containing
soluble salt of the same metal.

Cathode: M n + + ne – ¾¾® M (pure metal)

Sb, Ag, Au, Pt, Cu, Zn may be refined by this process.
(iii) Zone refining: This method is based on the principle that the impurities are more soluble in
the melt than in the solid state of the metal. A circular mobile heater is fixed at one end of a
rod of the impure metal. The molten zone moves along with the heater. The pure metal
crystallises out of the melt and impurities pass on into the adjacent molten zone.
22. (i) Nickel does not form low spin octahedral complexes because ‘Ni’ has electronic configuration
3d8 4s2, in which two inner d-orbitals are not available which are required to form d2sp3

structure in which the metal ion lies between two planar C5H5 rings. The bonding involves
overlap of p-electrons of the C5H5 rings with unfilled d-orbital of the metal. So that all M–C
bonds are identical for their stability.
(iii) Co2+ is easily oxidised to Co3+ in the presence of a strong ligand because in presence of strong
ligand, the 3d electrons pair up leaving two orbitals empty to be involved in d2sp3
hybridisation.

Denaturation of Proteins
When a protein in its native form, is subjected to a change in temperature or change in pH, the hydrogen
bond are disturbed. Due to this, globules unfold and helix get uncoiled and protein loses its biological
activity. This is called denaturation of protein. During denaturation 2° and 3° structures are destroyed but
1° structures remain intact, e.g., coagulation of egg white on boiling, curdling of milk, etc.

free ion just as would be the case in spherical field. The two orbitals lying along the axis get
repelled more strongly than other three (dxy, dyz, dxz). The degenerate set of d-orbitals get split
into two sets: the lower energy t2g set and eg set. The energy separation is denoted by D o . The
actual configuration adopted is decided by the relative values of D o and P. P-represents the
energy required for electron pairing in a single orbital.

21. (i) Macro molecular colloids: Macromolecules in suitable solvents form solution. Where in size
of the macromolecules may fall within the colloidal range. The system showing such
characteristics are called macromolecular colloids. The colloids are quite stable and in many
respect they resemble true solutions. Examples of naturally occurring macro molecules are
starch, cellulose, proteins and those of manmade macromolecules are nylon, polythene,
polystyrene, synthetic rubber etc.
(ii) Multimolecular colloids: A large number of atoms or smaller molecules (diameter < 1 nm) of
a substance on dissolution aggregate together to form species having size in the colloidal
range. Such species are called multimolecular colloids. Example: A sulphur sol contains
thousands of S8 sulphur molecules, a platinum or gold sol may have particles of various sizes
having many atoms.
(iii) Associated colloides (Micelles): There are certain substances which at low concentrations
behave like normal strong electrolytes but at higher concentration behave as colloidal solutions
due to the formation of aggregated particles. Such colloids are associated colloids and
aggregated particles as micelles. Examples: soaps and detergents.
22. (i) This is because transition metals have strong metallic bonds as they have large number of
unpaired electrons.
(ii) There is a close similarity in physical and chemical properties of the 4d and 5d series of the
transition elements much more than expected on the basis of usual family relationship. This is
because 5d and 4d series elements have virtually the same atomic and ionic radii due to
lanthanide contraction. Due to equality in size of Zr and Hf, Nb and Ta, Mo and W, etc., the
two elements of pair have the same properties.
(iii) The members in the actinoid series exhibit larger number of oxidation states than the
corresponding members in the lanthanide series due to the fact that the 5f, 6d and 7s levels are
of comparable energies.

24. (i) Pig iron into steel: Pig iron is converted into steel by heating in a converter. A blast of oxygen
diluted with carbon dioxide is blown through the converter. Oxygen reacts with impurities and
raised the temperature to 2173K carbon gets oxidised to CO which burns off at the mouth of
the converter. Oxides of silicon and Mg form slag. When the flame is stopped, slag is tapped
off and other metals like Mn, Cr, Ni, W may be added in the end.

(ii) Peptide linkage: The amide linkage (— C — NH —) formed between two a–amino acid
molecules with the loss of a water molecule in a polypeptide is called a peptide linkage.
(iii) Denaturation of Proteins: When a protein in its native form, it is subjected to a change,
change in temperature or change in pH, the hydrogen bond are disturbed. Due to this, globules
unfold and helix get uncoiled and protein loses its biological activity. This is called
denaturation of protein. During denaturation 2° and 3° structures are destroyed but 1°
structures remain intact, e.g., coagulation of egg white on boiling, curdling of milk, etc.

The following reactions cannot be explained by the open chain structure of glucose.
(i) Despite having the aldehyde group, glucose does not give 2, 4– DNP test, Schiffs test and it
does not form the hydrogensulphite addition product with NaHSO3.
(ii) The penta acetate of glucose does not react with hydroxyl amine indicating the absence of free
—CHO group.
(iii) D–Glucose on treatment of methyl alcohol in the presence of dry HCl gas gives two isomeric
nonomethyl derivatives known as a-D-glucoside and methyl b– D–glucoside. These
glucosides do not reduce fehling solution and also do not react with hydrogen cyanide
indicating the absence of free —CHO group.
A ring structure called pyranose structure (a- or b-) is proposed for the glucose molecule.
26. Polymers are classified into four groups based on the magnitude of intermolecular forces. They are—
(i) Elastomers (ii) Fibers
(iii) Thermoplastic polymers (iv) Thermosetting polymers
Polythene—Polythene is a thermoplastic polymer.
Bakelite— It is a thermosetting polymer.
27. Antiseptics: Antiseptics are the chemicals which prevent the growth of the harmful microorganism.
They do not harm the living tissues. For example dettol.
Disinfectants: These are the chemicals which completely destroy the microorganism: They are toxic
to living tissues. 1% solution of phenol is a disinfectant whereas 0.2% solution of phenol is antiseptic.
28. (a) Positive deviation from Raoult's law: When the partial vapour pressure of each component
(A and B) consequently the total vapour pressure is greater than the pressure expected on the
basis of Raoult's law then the deviation is termed as positive deviation.
Cause of positive deviation: This type of deviation is observed by solution in which the
forces of attraction between A–A molecules and between B–B molecules is greater then the
forces of attraction between A–B molecules.
g A - B < g A -A or g B- B
Negative deviation from Raoult's law: When the partial vapour pressure of each component
of solution is less than the vapour pressure expected on the basis of Raoult's law then the
deviation is called as negative deviation.
Causes of negative deviation: This type of deviation is shown by solutions in which the
forces of attraction between A–A and B–B molecules is less than the forces of attraction
between A and B molecules.

(a) Osmosis: The phenomenon in which solvent molecules flow through a semipermeable
membrane from a solution of low concentration to a solution of higher concentration is termed
as osmosis.
Osmotic Pressure: The hydrostatic pressure exerted by the column of the solution which is
just sufficient to prevent the osmosis is called osmotic pressure.
Advantage of using osmotic pressure as compared to other collegative properties:
(i) The equilibrium is established very quickly. Hence, results are obtained in a very short
time.
(ii) The concentration of the solution does not change during determination of osmotic
pressure.
(iii) This is ideal method for proteins to find their molar mass since it happens at room
temperature and no coagulation occurs.

(a) Mechanism of nucleophilic addition reactions:
A nucleophile attacks the electrophilic carbon atom of the polar carbonyl group from a
direction approximately perpendicular to the plane of sp2 hybridized orbitals of carbonyl
carbon. The hybridization of carbon changes from sp2 to sp3 in this process and a tetrahedral
intermediate is produced. The intermediate captures a proton from the medium to give the
neutral product.

11. Rate expression is an experimentally determined expression which relates the rate of reaction with the
concentration of the reactants whereas rate constant is the rate of reaction when concentration of each
reactant in the reaction is unity.
Consider a general reaction
aA + bB ¾ ¾® c C + dD
The rate expression for this reaction is
Rate = k [A]m [B]n
Where the proportionality constant k is called rate constant.
12. (i) This is because the N—O bond in NO–2 is an average of a single bond and a double bond
whereas the N—O bond in NO–3 is an average of two single bonds and a double bond.
(ii) In SF6, S atom is sterically protected by six F atoms and does not allow water molecules to
attack the S atom. Further, F does not have d-orbitals to accept the electrons denoted by H2O
molecules. Due to these reasons, SF6 is kinetically an inert substance.
OR
(i) In PCl5 the two axial bonds are longer than the three equatorial bonds. This is due to the fact
that the axial bond pairs suffer more repulsion as compared to equatorial bond pairs.
(ii) The property of catenation depends upon bond strength of the element. As S—S bond is much
stronger (213 kJ mol–1) than O—O bond (138 kJ mol–1), sulphur has greater tendency for
catenation than oxygen.
13. (i) In aqueous solution Cu+ undergoes disproportionation to form a more stable Cu2+ ion.
2 Cu+ (aq) ¾ ¾® 2 Cu2+(aq) + Cu(s)
The higher stability of Cu2+ in aqueous solution may be attributed to its greater negative
D hydH° than that of Cu+. It compensates the second ionization enthalpy of Cu involved in the
formation of Cu2+ ions.
(ii) Actinoids exhibit greater range of oxidation states than lanthanoids. This is because there is less
energy difference between 5f and 6d orbitals belonging to actinoids than the energy difference
between 4f and 5d orbitals in case of lanthanoids.

17. Primary Structure: The specific sequence in which the various a-amino acids present in a protein
are linked to one another is called its primary structure. Any change in the primary structure creates a
different protein.
Secondary Structure: The conformation which the polypeptide chain assumes as a result of
hydrogen bonding is known as secondary structure. The two types of secondary structures are a-helix
and b-pleated sheet structure.
In a-helix structure, the polypeptide chain forms all the possible hydrogen bonds by twisting into a
right handed screw (helix) with the —NH groups of each amino acid residue hydrogen bonded to the
C==O groups of an adjacent turn of the helix. In b-pleated structure, all peptide chains are stretched
out nearly to maximum extension and then laid side by side which are held together by hydrogen
bonds.

21. (i) Production of Vacuum: Adsorption can be successfully applied to create conditions of high
vacuum. For this a bulb of charcoal cooled in liquid air, is connected to vessel which has
already been exhausted as far as possible by vacuum pump. The remaining traces of air inspite
of low pressure are adsorbed by the charcoal almost completely.
(ii) Heterogeneous Catalysis: There are many gaseous reactions of industrial importance
involving solid catalyst. Manufacture of ammonia using iron as a catalyst, manufacture of
H2SO4 by contact process using V2O5 catalyst and use of finely divided nickel in the
hydrogenation of vegetable oils are the excellent examples. The gaseous reactants are adsorbed
on the surface of the solid catalyst. As a result, the concentration of the reactants increases on
the surface of the catalyst and hence the rate of reaction increases.
(iii) Froth Floatation Process: In froth floatation process the powdered ore is mixed with water. It
is then mixed with pine oil (a frother). The oil particles are adsorbed on the surface of ore
particles. Now, a stream of air is blown through the mixture from below when froth is formed
at the water surface. The ore particles stick to the bubbles of the air rises to surface along with
the foam while the gangue particles which are wetted by water settle at the bottom. The foam is
separated out and is collected and in the course, the ore particles also settle down.
OR
(i) Micelles: There are some substances which at low concentration behave as normal strong
electrolytes but at higher concentration exhibit colloidal behaviour due to formation of
aggregated particles. The aggregated particles thus formed are called micelles. The formation
of micelles takes place only above a particular temperature called Kraft temperature and
above a particular concentration called critical micelle concentration (CMC). Surface active
agents such as soap and synthetic detergents belong to this class.
(ii) Peptization: The process of converting a precipitate into colloidal sol by shaking it with
dispersion medium in the presence of a small amount of suitable electrolyte is called
peptization. During peptization, the precipitate absorbs one of the ions of the electrolyte on its
surface. This causes development of positive or negative charge on precipitates, which
ultimately break up into particles of colloidal dimension.
(iii) Desorption: The process of removing an adsorbed substance from a surface on which it is
adsorbed is called desorption.
22. (i) Vapour phase refining of a metal: In this method, the metal is converted into its volatile
compound and collected elsewhere. It is then decomposed to give pure metal. For example,
refining of nickel by Mond process.

(ii) Electrolytic refining of a metal: In this method, the impure metal is made to act as anode. A
strip of same metal in pure form is used as cathode. They are put in a suitable electrolytic bath
containing soluble salt of same metal. When electric current is passed the metal from the anode
goes into solution as ions due to oxidation while pure metal gets deposited at the cathode due to
reduction of metal ions. The voltage applied for electrolysis is such that impurities of more
electropositive metals remains in the solution as ions while impurities of the less electropositive
metals settle down under the anode as anode mud.

(iii) Recovery of silver after silver ore was leached with NaCN: During leaching Ag is
oxidised to Ag+ which then combines with CN– ions to form soluble complex, [Ag(CN)2]–.

electropositive zinc metal.

25. (i) Haloalkanes dissolve in organic solvents because the new intermolecular attractions between
haloalkanes and organic solvent molecules have much the same strength as ones being broken
in the separate haloalkanes and solvent molecules.
(ii) An equimolar mixture of a pair of enantiomers is called racemic mixture. For example,
butan-2-ol. A racemic mixture is optically inactive due to external compensation.
(iii) Of the two bromo derivatives, C6H5CH(CH3)Br and C6H5CH(C6H5)Br, the intermediate
obtained from C6H5CH (C6H5) Br is more stable than obtained from C6H5CH(CH3) Br because
it is stabilised by two phenyl groups due to resonance. Therefore, C6H5CH (C6H5)Br is more
reactive than C6H5(CH3) Br.

do not contain any soap e.g., sodium dodecylbenzene sulphonate. These can be used both in
soft and hard water as they give foam even in hard water. Detergents are mainly classified into
three categories:
(i) Anionic detergents

time. Sodium benzoate, sodium metabisulphite are some common preservatives.
Preservatives prevent rancidity and kill or inhibit the growth of microorganism.
(iii) Antacids: These are the chemical substances which neutralize the excess acid and raise the pH
to an appropriate level in the stomach. Sodium hydrogen carbonate or a mixture of aluminium
and magnesium hydroxide are some common antacids.
28. (a) Molarity is the number of moles of solute dissolved in one litre of solution whereas molality is
the number of moles of solute per kilogram of the solvent. Molarity decreases with increase in
temperature as volume increases with increase in temperature. Molality is independent of
temperature because mass does not depend on temperature.
i ´ K f ´ WB ´ 1000
(b) DTf =
M B ´ WA
i = 3, Kf = 1.86 K kg mol–1, WB = 10.5 g
MB = 184 g mol–1, WA = 200 g
Substituting these values in above equation, we get
3 ´ 1.86 K kg mol -1 ´ 10.5 g ´ 1000 g kg -1
DTf =
184 g mol -1 ´ 200 g
DTf = 1.59 K
Therefore, freezing of aqueous solution

= 271.56 K
OR
(a) Osmosis: The spontaneous movement of the solvent molecules either from the pure solvent to
the solution or from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution through a
semi-permeable membrane.
Osmotic Pressure: The minimum excess pressure that has to be applied on the solution to
prevent the passage of solvent molecules into it through semipermeable membrane is called
osmotic pressure.
Osmotic pressure is a colligative property as it depends on the number of moles of solute
particles and not on their identity.
i ´ K b ´ WB ´ 1000
(b) DTb =

i = 2, Kb = 0.512 K kg mol–1, WB= 15g

2 ´ 0.512 K kg mol -1 ´ 15 g ´ 1000 g Kg -1

DTb = = 1.05 K
58.44 g mol -1 ´ 250 g

25. (i) In aniline, the lone pair of electrons on N-atom are delocalised over benzene ring due to
resonance. As a result, electron density on the nitrogen atom decreases. In contrast, in
–
methylamine, +I-effect of CH3 group increases electron density on the nitrogen atom.
Therefore, aniline is a weaker base than methylamine, hence its pKb value is more than that for
methylamine.
(ii) Ethylamine is soluble in water due to formation of inter-molecular hydrogen bonds with water
molecules. However, in aniline due to large hydrophobic part, i.e., hydrocarbon part, the extent
of hydrogen bonding decreases considerably and hence aniline is insoluble in water.
(iii) Due to the presence of two H-atoms on N-atom, primary amines undergo extensive
intermolecular hydrogen bonding whereas tertiary amines have no H-atoms on the nitrogen
atom, do not undergo H-bonding. As a result, primary amines have higher boiling points than
tertiary amines.

(ii) Synthetic Detergents: Detergents are cleansing agents which have all the properties of soaps,
but actually do not contain any soap e.g., sodium dodecylbenzene sulphonate. These can be
used both in soft and hard water as they give foam even in hard water. Detergents are mainly
classified into three categories:
(i) Anionic detergents
(ii) Cationic detergents
(iii) Non-ionic detergents
(iii) Antacids: These are the chemical substances which neutralize the excess acid and raise the pH

15. (i) The catalytic activity of transition metals and their compounds is attributed to the following
reasons:
Because of their variable oxidation states transition metals form unstable intermediate
compounds and provide a new path with lower activation for the reaction.
In some cases, the transition metal provides a suitable large surface area with free valencies on
which reactants are adsorbed.
(ii) In general in the same group of d block elements, the 4d and 5d transition element has larger
size than that of 3d elements. Thus, the valence electrons are less lightly held and hence can
form metal-metal bond more frequently.

1. The energy required to form the intermediate called activated complex is known as activation energy.
Activation energy = Threshold energy – Average energy of the reactants
2. Reverse osmosis: If a pressure larger than the osmotic pressure is applied on the solution side, the
solvent starts to flow from the solution into the pure solvent through the semipermeable membrane.
This phenomenon is called reverse osmosis.
3. If either the ore or the gangue is capable of being attracted by magnetic field, then such separation are
carried out by magnetic separation.
11. Molarity is the number of moles of solute dissolved in one litre of solution whereas molality is the
number of moles of solute per kilogram of the solvent. Molarity decreases with increase in
temperature as volume increases with increase in temperature. Molality is independent of temperature
because mass does not depend on temperature.
14. (i) Pig iron is melt with scrap iron and coke using hot air blast. Due to this, impurities such as C, S
and P present in the pig iron are removed as CO2, SO2 and P2O5 and carbon content reduced to
about 3%.
(ii) Bauxite is soluble in concentrated NaOH solution whereas impurities are not.
15. (i) This is due to presence of unpaired electrons in the (n–1) d orbitals of transition elements.
(ii) The chemistry of actinoids is not as smooth as lanthanoid because they are radioactive and
show greater number of oxidation states due comparable energies of 5f, 6d and 7s orbitals.
18. The following facts and reactions cannot be explained by open chain structure of glucose.
(i) Despite having the aldehyde group, glucose does not give 2, 4-DNP test, Shiff’s test and it does
not form the hydrogen sulphite addition product with NaHSO3.
(ii) The penta-acetate of glucose does not react with hydroxylamine indicating the absence of free
aldehydic group.
21. (i) This is because bond dissociation energy of F2 is lower than Cl2 Moreover, fluorine forms
(ii) The acidic strength of compounds increases because of increase in polarity of E—H bond from
P—H to H—Cl, which is due to increase in electronegativity of E.
(iii) In SF6, S atom is sterically protected by six F atoms and does not allow water molecules to
attack the S atom. Further, F does not have d-orbitals to accept the electrons denoted by H2O
molecules. Due to these reasons, SF6 is kinetically an inert substance.

9. Molarity (M) is the number of moles of solute dissolved in one litre of solution whereas molality (m)
is the number of moles of the solute per thousand grams of solvent.
If MB is the molar mass of solute, d is the density of solution then molarity (M) value of a solution can
be converted into its molality (m) by using the following for formula.
1000 ´ M
m=
1000 ´ d - M ´ M B

dispersion medium are liquids (e.g., milk, Cod liver, oil, etc.)
(ii) Hydrosol: A sol in which solid is the dispersed phase and water in dispersion medium is called
hydrosol.
13. (i) Production of Vacuum: Adsorption can be successfully applied to create conditions of high
vacuum. For this a bulb of charcoal cooled in liquid air, is connected to vessel which has
already been exhausted as far as possible by vacuum pump. The remaining traces of air inspite
of low pressure are adsorbed by the charcoal almost completely.
(ii) Heterogeneous Catalysis: There are many gaseous reactions of industrial importance
involving solid catalyst. Manufacture of ammonia using iron as a catalyst, manufacture of
H2SO4 by contact process using V2O5 catalyst and use of finely divided nickel in the
hydrogenation of vegetable oils are the excellent examples. The gaseous reactants are adsorbed
on the surface of the solid catalyst. As a result, the concentration of the reactants increases on
the surface of the catalyst and hence the rate of reaction increases.

(b) (i) The catalytic activity of transition metals and their compounds is attributed to the
following reasons:
In some cases, the transition metal provides a suitable large surface area with free
valencies on which reactants are adsorbed.
In general in the same group of d block elements, the 4d and 5d transition element has
larger size than that of 3d elements. Thus, the valence electrons are less lightly held and
hence can form metal-metal bond more frequently.
(ii) Mn3+ is less stable and changes to Mn2+ which is more stable due to half filled d-orbital
configuration. That is why, Mn3+ undergoes disproportionation reaction.
(iii) Co (III) has electric configuration 3d, 4s, i.e., it has three unpaired electron. In the
presence of strong ligands, two unpaired electrons in 3d subshell pair up and third
unpaired electron shift to higher energy subshell from where it can be easily lost and
hence oxidised to Co(III).

12. The process of settling of colloidal particles through induced aggregation by the addition of some
suitable electrolyte is known as coagulation. Three methods by which coagulation of lyophobic sols
can be carried out are:
(i) Electrophoresis: During electrophoresis the colloidal particles move towards oppositely
charged electrodes, get discharged and coagulated.
(ii) Boiling: On boiling a sol, the adsorbed layer is disturbed due to increased collision with the
molecules of dispersion medium. This reduces the charge on the particles which ultimately
settle down in the form of a precipitate.
(iii) Addition of Electrolytes: When excess of an electrolyte is added to a colloidal solution, the
colloids interact with ions carrying charge opposite to that present on themselves. This causes
neutralisation leading to their coagulation.

(ii) A number of reactions that occur in the bodies of animals and plants to maintain the life process
are catalysed by enzymes. The enzymes are thus termed as biocatalysts. Almost all the enzymes
are globular proteins. An enzyme catalyses a biochemical reaction by providing alternate
lower activation path thereby increasing the rate of the biochemical reaction. For example,
activation energy for acid hydrolysis of sucrose is 6.22 kJ mol–1 while the activation energy is
only 2.15 kJ mol–1 when hydrolyzed in the presence of enzyme sucrose.

24. Chlorine withdraws electrons through negative inductive effect and releases electron through
resonance. Through negative inductive effect, chlorine destabilizes the intermediate carbocation
formed during the electrophilic substitution. Through resonance effect, chlorine tends to stabilize the
carbocation and the effect is more pronounced at ortho and para-positions

Resonance effect stabilizes the

The negative inductive effect is stronger than resonance effect and causes net electron withdrawal and
thus causes net deactivation. The resonance effect tends to oppose the inductive effect for the attack at
ortho and para positions and hence makes the deactivation less for ortho and para attack. Thus the
electrophilic substitution takes place at ortho and para positions..

22. (i) Because strong ligand causes spin pairing giving rise to diamagnetic octahedral complex which
are very stable and have very large crystal field stabilization energy. This splitting energy
overcomes the ionization enthalpy.
(ii) CO is capable of accepting an appreciable amount of electron density from a filled metal
d-orbital into vacant antibonding p*-orbital of its own.This type of p interaction increases the
value of crystal field stabilization energy. This explain why CO is a stronger complexing
reagent than NH3.
(iii) Ni in [Ni(CO)4] is sp3 hybridized. Hence, it is tetrahedral.
In [Ni(CN)4]2–, the Ni2+ is dsp2 hybridized. Hence, it has square planar geometry.

23. (i) Cr2+ is a reducing agent as its configuration changes from d4 to d3, the later having a half-filled
t2g level. On the other hand, the change from Mn3+ to Mn2+ results in the extra stable half-filled (d5)
configuration and hence Mn3+ is an oxidizing agent.
(ii) This is due to very small energy gaps between 5f, 6d and 7s subshells in actinoids.
(iii) In aqueous solutions, the transition metal ions which have partially filled d-orbitals undergo d-d
transition by absorbing light from visible region and radiate complementary colour.

Semicarbazide
Although semicarbazide has two —NH2 group but one which is directly attached to C—O
is involved in the resonance as shown above. Consequently, electron density on this
—NH2 group decreases and hence it does not act as a nucleophile. On the other hand, the
lone pair of electrons on the other —NH2 group is not involved in resonance and hence is
available for nucleophilic attack on the C—O group of aldehydes and ketones.
(ii) Due to presence of three methyl groups, the nucleophilic attack by CN– ion does not occur
due to steric hindrance in 2, 4, 6-trimethyl cylcohexanone. As there is no such steric
hindrance in cyclohexanone so nucleophilic attack by the CN– ion occurs readily and
hence cyclohexanone cyanohydrin is obtained in good yield.

22. (i) Because of large number of unpaired electrons in their atoms, the transition metals have strong
interatomic interactions and hence stronger bonding between atoms, resulting in higher
enthalpies of atomization.
(ii) In the same group of d-block elements, the 4d and 5d transition elements are larger in size than
than those of 3d elements. Hence, the valence electrons are less tightly held and form
metal–metal bond more frequently.
(iii) Mn3+(d4) is less stable than Mn2+ (d5, half filled) while Fe3+ (d5, half filled) is more stable than
Fe2+ (d4). That is why Mn2+ is more resistance than Fe2+ towards oxidation.

(iii) In NO2–, nitrogen has a lone pair of electrons. As lone pair-bond pair repulsion is greater
than bond pair-bond repulsion, thus O—N—O bond angle in NO2– is less than NO2+.

liquid is called aerosol, e.g., smoke, fog, etc.
(ii) An emulsion is a colloidal system in which both the dispersed phase and the dispersion medium
are liquids, e.g., milk, cod liver oil, etc.
(iii) There are some substances such as soap which at low concentration behave as normal
electrolytes, but at higher concentration exhibit colloidal behaviour due to the formation of
aggregates. The aggregated particles thus formed are known as micelles or associated colloids.

(ii) Because of its small size, oxygen is capable of forming pp–pp bond and exist as diatomic
O2 molecule. The intermolecular forces in oxygen are weak van der Waals force, due to
which it is a gas at room temperature. On the other hand, sulphur, due to its larger size
prefers to form S–S single bond and exist as octaatomic S8 molecule having puckered ring
structure. Because of larger size the force of attraction holding the S8 molecules together
are much stronger. Hence sulphur is a solid at room temperature.

17. The cleansing action of soap such as sodium stearate is due to the fact that soap molecules form
micelle around the oil droplet in such a way that hydrophobic part of the stearate ions is in the oil
droplet and hydrophilic part projects out of the grease droplet like the bristles. Since the polar groups
can interact with water, the oil droplet surrounded by stearate ions is now pulled in water and removed
from the dirty surface. Thus soap helps in emulsification and washing away of oils and fats.

23. (i) Interstitial compounds are well known for many of the transition elements because the
transition elements are capable of entrapping small sized atoms such as H,C and N in the
interstitial sites in their crystal lattices. These trapped atoms get bonded to the atoms of
transition elements, for example, TiC, Fe3H and Mn4N, etc.
(ii) The decrease in metallic radius coupled with increase in atomic mass results in a general
increase in density from titanium to copper in the first series of transition elements.
(iii) This is due to very small energy gaps between 5f, 6d and 7s subshells in actinoids.
27. (i) Elastomers: These are the polymers having the weakest intermolecular forces of attraction
between the polymer chains. The weak forces permit the polymer to be stretched. A few ‘cross
links’ are introduced between the chains, which help the polymer to retract to its original
position after the force is released as in vulcanised rubber. Elastomers thus possess an elastic
character, e.g., buna-S, buna-N, neoprene, etc.
(ii) Condenstaion Polymers: The condensation polymers are formed by the repeated condensation
reaction between different bifunctional or trifunctional monomer units usually with elimination
of small molecules such as water, alcohol hydrogen chloride, etc. Nylon 6, 6, Nylon 6, terylene
are some examples.
(iii) Addition polymers: Addition polymers are formed by repeated addition of same or different
monomer molecules. The monomers used are unsaturated compounds, e.g., alkenes, alkadienes
and their derivatives. Polythene is an example of addition polymer.

(b) (i) Due to smaller size of O as compared to S, the bond dissociation enthalpy of O–H bond is
higher than that of S–H bond. As a result, in aqueous solution, S–H bond can break more
easily form H+ ion than O–H bond. Hence H2S is more acidic than H2O.
(ii) This is because fluorine is the most electronegative element and it does not have d orbitals.
(iii) This is because the valence shell orbital of He is completely filled (1s2) and it has high
ionisation enthalpy and more positive electron gain enthalpy.

8. Human beings suffer from depression when they have low levels of noradrenaline. Noradrenaline is a
neurotransmiter that plays a role in mood changes. Low levels of noradrenaline lower the
signal-sending activity and make human beings suffer from depression. Tranquilizers such as
improniazid and phenelyzine are useful in treating this depression.

18. Difference between antiseptics and disinfectants:

Antiseptics
z Antiseptics are chemical substances which prevent the growth of microorganisms and may even
kill them but are not harmful to living tissues.
z Antiseptics are generally applied to living tissues such as wounds, cuts, ulcers and diseased skin
surfaces.
z Dettol, furacine, soframicine are antiseptics.
Disinfectants
z Disinfectants are chemical substances which kill microorganisms or stop their growth but are
harmful to human tissues.
z Disinfectants are applied to inanimate objects such as floor, drainage system, instrument, etc.
z Chlorine in the concentration of 0.2 to 0.4 ppm in aqueous solution and SO in very low
2
concentration are disinfectants.
22. Three distinct features of chemisorptions which are not found in physisorptions:
(i) Enthalpy of adsorption: Enthalpy of adsorption is high (80-240 kJ mol–1) as it involves
chemical bond formation.
(ii) High specificity: Chemisorption is highly specific and it will only occur if there is some
possibility of chemical bonding between adsorbent and adsorbate. For example, hydrogen is
adsorbed by transition metals by virtue of hydride formation.
(iii) Irreversibility: Chemisorption is usually irreversible in nature as it involves compound
formation. It is very slow at low temperatures on account of high activation energy.
23. (i) Cr2+ is reducing agent as its configuration changes from d4 to d3, the later having a half-filled
trg level. On the other hand, the change from Mn2+ to Mn3+ results in the extra stable
half-filled, d5 configuration. Therefore Mn3+ is an oxidising agent.
(ii) This is due to small energy gap between 5f, 6d and 7s subshells in actinoids.
(iii) This is because with increase in atomic number in a series , the increased nuclear charge is
partly cancelled by the increased shielding effect of electrons in the d-orbitals of penultimate
shell.

26. (i) A peptide linkage is an amide linkage —( CONH— ) formed between —COOH group of one
a-amino acid and —NH2 group of the other a-amino acid by the loss of a water molecule.
(ii) Primary structure of proteins: The sequence in which various amino acids are arranged in a
protein is called its primary structure. Any change in the sequence of amino acids creates
different protein which alters biological functions.
(iii) Denaturation of Proteins: When a protein in its native form is subjected to a change in
temperature or a change in pH, the hydrogen bonds are disturbed. Due to this, globules unfold
and helix gets uncoiled and protein loses its biological activity. This is called denaturation of
protein. During denaturation 2° and 3° structures are destroyed but 1° structures remain intact,
e.g., coagulation of egg white on boiling, curdling of milk, etc.

29. (a) (i) Bond dissociation enthalpy decreases as the bond distance increases from F2 to I2 because
of the corresponding increase in the size of the atom as we move from F to I. The F—F bond
dissociation enthalpy is, however, smaller than that of Cl—Cl and even smaller than that of
Br—Br. This is because F atom is very small and hence the three lone pairs of electrons on
each F atom repel the bond pair holding the F-atoms in F2 molecule. Hence, the bond
dissociation enthalpy increases in the order: I 2 < F2 < Br2 < Cl 2 .

the particles of the dispersion medium. Example, sols of metal and their sulphides and
hydroxides, As2S3 sol, Fe(OH)3 sol.
(iii) Emulsion is a colloidal solution in which both the dispersed phase and dispersion medium are
liquids. Example, milk, cod liver oil, etc.
21. (i) N due to the absence of d-orbitals, cannot form pp - dp multiple bonds. Thus, N cannot expand
its covalency beyond four but in R3N—O, N has a covalency of 5. So, the compound
R3N—O does not exist. On the other hand, P due to the presence of d-orbitals forms
pp - dp multiple bonds and hence can expand its covalency beyond 4. Therefore, P forms
R3P—O in which the covalency of P is 5.
(ii) Because Pb is in +4 oxidation state in PbCl4 and has high charge/size ratio than Pb2+, thus
polarising power of Pb4+ is greater than Pb2+, and hence it is more covalent.

(iii) In CH3–X the carbon atom is sp2 hybridised while in halobenzene the carbon atom is sp3
hybridised. The sp2 hybridised carbon is more electronegative due to greater s-character and
holds the electron pair of C–X bond more tightly than sp3 hybridised carbon with less
s-character. Thus, C–X bond length in CH3–X is bigger than C–X in halobenzene.

28. (a) For a solution of volatile liquids, Raoult’s law states that the partial vapour pressure of each
component of the solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction present in solution, i.e.,
p A µ x A , or p A = p Ao x A
According to Henry’s law, the partial pressure of a gas in vapour phase (p) is directly
proportional to mole fraction (x) of the gas in the solution.
p = KHx
On comparing it with Raoult’s law it can be seen that partial pressure of the volalite component
or gas is directly proportional to its mole fraction in solution.

only the proportionality constant KH differs from p Ao . Thus, it becomes a special case of Henry's
law in which KH = p Ao .

28. (a) Kohlrausch’s Law: It states that the limiting molar conductivity of an electrolyte can be
represented as the sum of the individual contributions of the anion and cation of the electrolyte.
In general, if an electrolyte on dissociation gives n + cations and n – anions then its limiting molar
conductivity is given by
Lom = n + lo+ + n – lo–
Here, lo+ and lo- are the limiting molar conductivities of cations and anions, respectively.
Applications of Kohlrausch’s Law:
Calculation of molar conductivities of weak electrolyte at infinite dilution: For example, molar
conductivity of acetic acid (weak acid) at infinite dilution can be obtained from the knowledge of
molar conductivities at infinite dilution of strong electrolytes like HCl, CH3COONa and NaCl as
illustrated below.

29. (i) In the formation of metallic bonds, no electrons from 3d-orbitals are involved in case of zinc,
while in all other metals of the 3d series, electrons from the d-orbitals are always involved in
the formation of metallic bonds. That is why, the enthalpy of atomisation of zinc is the lowest
in the series.
(ii) This is due to filling of 4f orbitals which have poor shielding effect (lanthanoid contraction).
(iii) Transition elements show variable oxidation states because electrons in ns and ( n - 1) d-orbitals
(iv) This is because the sum of enthalpies of sublimation and ionisation is not balanced by

30. (a) (i) This is due to steric and electronic reasons. Sterically, the presence of two relatively large
substituents in ketones hinders the approach of nucleophile to carbonyl carbon than in
aldehydes having only one such substituent. Electronically two alkyl groups reduce the
positivity of the carbonyl carbon more effectively in ketones than in aldehydes.
(ii) This is because for aldol condensation to take place, at least one a-hydrogen (i.e., hydrogen
at carbon adjacent to carbonyl carbon) should be available, which is not present in
(CH3)3C—CHO.
(iii) This is due to more extensive association of carboxylic acid molecules through intermolecular
hydrogen bonding. The hydrogen bonds do not break completely even in the vapour phase.

11. (i) Hydraulic washing: It is based on the differences in the gravities of the ore and the gangue
particles.
(ii) Vapour phase refining: In this, metal is converted into its volatile compound and collected
elsewhere. It is then decomposed to give pure metal. So, the two requirements are:
(a) The metal should form a volatile compound with an available reagent.
(b) The volatile compound should be easily decomposable, so that the recovery is easy.
22. (a) (i) There are two bond pairs and three lone pairs of electrons around central Xe atom in XeF2.
Therefore according to VSEPR Theory XeF2 should be linear.

24. (i) Due to inert pair effect +3 oxidation state of Bi is more stable than its +5 oxidation state while
+5 oxidation state of Sb is more stable than its +3 oxidation state. Therefore, Bi (V) can more
easily accept a pair of electrons to form more stable Bi (III) than Sb (V) can accept a pair of
electrons and hence Bi (V) is stronger oxidising agent than Sb (V).
(ii) N–N single bond is weaker than P–P single bond due to large interelectronic repulsion between
the lone pairs of electrons present on the N atoms of N–N bond having small bond length.
(iii) Noble gases being monoatomic have no interatomic forces except weak London or dispersion
forces and therefore, they are liquefied at very low temperatures. Hence, they have very low
boiling points.

9. It states that for a solution of volatile liquids, the partial vapour pressure of each component in the
solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction. According to Raoults law, for a volatile
component, A of the solution
PA µ x A or PA = PAo x A , where PA0 is the vapour pressure of pure component A.
If one of the component is so volatile that it exist as a gas then according to Henry’s law
p = K H x , where KH is the Henry law constant i.e., the partial vapour pressure of the volatile
component (gas) is directly proportional to its mole fraction in the solution.
Thus the similarity between Raoult’s law and Henry’s law is that both state that the partial vapour
pressure of the volatile component or gas is directly proportional to its mole fraction in the solution.
10. (i) Rate constant, k may be defined as the rate of reaction when concentration of each reactant is
taken as unity.
(ii) Refer to Ans. 10 (ii) Set-II CBSE Delhi 2014.
11. (i) This method of concentration of ore is based on the principle that the surface of sulphide ores is
preferentially wetted by oils while that of gangue is preferentially wetted by water.
(ii) Electrolytic refining: In this method, impure metal is made to act as anode. A strip of same
metal in pure form is used as cathode. They are put in a electrolytic bath containing soluble salt
of same metal. On passing electric current, metal ions from the electrolyte solution are
deposited at the cathode in the form of pure metal while an equivalent amount of metal
dissolves from the anode and goes into the electrolyte solution as metal ions, i.e.,
At cathode: M n + ( aq) + ne – ¾ ¾ ¾® M( s)
At anode: ¾® M n + ( aq) + ne –
M( s) ¾ ¾
The voltage applied for the electrolysis is such that the impurities of more electropositive
metals remain in the solution as ions where impurities of less basic metals settle down under
the anode as anode mud. A large number of metals such as copper, gold, silver, zinc,
aluminium, etc., are refined by this method.

22. (i) In vapour form sulphur partly exists as S2 molecules which have two unpaired electrons in the
antibonding p * molecular orbitals like O2 molecule and hence, exhibits paramagnetism.
(ii) The oxidation of central atom Sn is +4 in SnCl4 while it is +2 in SnCl2. Higher the positive
oxidation of central atom, more will be its polarising power which, in turn increases the
covalent character of bond formation between the central atom and the atoms around it.
(iii) Acids which contains P—H bonds have reducing character. Since H3PO2 contains two P—H
bonds while H3PO3 contains only one P—H bond therefore H3PO2 is a stronger reducing agent
than H3PO3.
23. (i) Chemical substances which kill microorganisms or stop their growth but are not safe to be
applied to the living tissues are called disinfectants. For example, chlorine in concentrations of
0.2 to 0.4 ppm is used for sterilisation of water to make it fit for drinking.
(ii) Biomolecules such as carbohydrates, proteins, liquids and nucleic acids are chosen as drug targets.
(iii) Anionic detergents: These are so named because large part of their molecules are anions and it
is the anionic part of the molecule which is involved in the cleansing action. These are sodium
salt of sulphonated long chain alcohols or hydrocarbons. For example, sodium lauryl sulphate,
sodium dodecylbenzene sulphonate, etc. Anionic detergents are used in household work and in
toothpastes.

11. Kohlrausch law states that the limiting molar conductivity of an electrolyte can be represented as the
sum of the individual contributions of cation and anion of the electrolyte.
In general, if an electrolyte on dissociation gives n + cations and n - anions then its limiting molar
conductivity is given by
L°m = n + l°+ + n - l°-
where, l°+ and l°- are the limiting molar conductivities of cations and anions respectively.
Conductivity of a solution decreases with dilution. This is due to the fact that the number of ions per

21. Emulsions are the colloidal solutions in which both the dispersed phase and dispersion medium are
liquids. Emulsion can be classified into two types. These are:
(i) Oil in water (O/W) type emulsion: In this type of emulsions oil acts as disperse phase and
water acts as dispersion medium e.g., milk, vanishing cream.
(ii) Water in oil (W/O) type emulsion: In this type of emulsions water acts as disperse phase and
oil acts as dispersion medium e.g., butter, cod liver oil, cold cream.
22. (i) Phosphorus due to presence of d orbitals in its valence shell forms pp - dp multiple bonds. As
a result phosphorus can expand its covalency beyond four. Therefore, phosphorus form
R3P—O in which its covalency is 5. In contrast, nitrogen due to absence of d-orbitals, cannot
form pp - dp multiple bonds and hence cannot expand its covalency beyond 4. Therefore,
(CH3 ) 3 N—O does not exist.
(ii) The size of O atom is smaller as compared to S. Thus when an electron is added to isolated
gaseous O atom, the interelectronic repulsions encountered in the smaller 2p-orbitals of O are
larger than those encountered in the larger 3p-orbitals of S.
As a result less energy is released in case of O than in case of S. Hence oxygen has less electron
gain enthalpy with negative sign than sulphur.
(iii) Acids which contains P–H bonds have reducing character. Since H3PO2 contains two P–H
bonds while H3PO3 contains only one P–H bond therefore H3PO2 is a stronger reducing agent
than H3PO3.

paramagnetic. In [Ni(CO)4], Ni is in zero oxidation state with the electronic configuration
3d8 4s2. CO is a strong ligand it causes 4s electrons to shift to 3d and pair up 3d electrons.
Since there is no unpaired electron in the complex Ni(CO)4, therefore, it is diamagnetic.

(ii) CH3 Cl. As three bulky methyl groups hinder the approach of nucleophile in (CH3)C—Cl.
25. (i) In primary amines, two hydrogen atoms are present on N-atom and they undergo extensive
intermolecular hydrogen bonding which results in association of molecules while in tertiary
amines, no hydrogen atom is present on N-atom. Hence there is no hydrogen bonding in
tertiary amines. As a result of this primary amines have higher boiling point than tertiary
amines.
(ii) Aniline being a Lewis base reacts with AlCl3 a Lewis acid and catalyst used in Friedel crafts
+ -
reaction to form salt C6H5NH2AlCl3. Due to presence of a +ve charge on N-atom in the salt, the
+
group NH2AlCl3 acts as a strong deactivating group. It reduces the electron density in the
benzene ring as a result of this aniline does not undergo Friedel-crafts reaction.
(iii) The basicity of amine in aqueous solution depends upon the stability of the substituted
ammonium cation. Here the combination of three factors, +ve I effect of CH3 groups, hydrogen
bonding and steric hindrance favour greater stability for ammonium cation of dimethyl amine
than ammonium cation of trimethyl amine. Hence dimethylamine is stronger base than
trimethyl amine.

(ii) The specific sequence in which various a-amino acids present in a protein are linked to one
another is called its primary structure. Any change in its primary structure creates a new
protein.
(iii) Denaturation of Proteins: When a protein in its native form is subjected to a change, such as
change in temperature or change in pH, the hydrogen bonds are disturbed. Due to this, globules
unfold and helix get uncoiled and protein loses its biological activity. This is called
denaturation of protein. During denaturation, 2° and 3° structures are destroyed but 1°
structures remain intact, e.g., coagulation of egg while on boiling, curdling of milk, etc.

(a) A mixture of ethanol and acetone shows positive deviation from Raoults law.
In pure ethanol hydrogen bond exist between the molecules. On adding acetone to ethanol,
acetone molecules get in between the molecules of ethanol thus breaking some of the hydrogen
bonds and weakening molecular interactions considerably. Weakening of molecular
interactions leads to increase in vapour pressure resulting in positive deviation from Raoults
law.

(b) (i) As zinc atom has completely filled d orbitals (3d 10 4s 2 ) in its ground state as well as in its
oxidised state, therefore zinc is not considered as transition element.
(ii) Transition metals form a large number of complexes due to following reasons:
= Small size and high charge of the ions of transition metals.
= Presence of vacant orbitals of appropriate energy which can accept lone pairs of
electrons donated by ligand.
(iii) Mn2+has the electronic configuration [Ar]3d5 which is half filled and hence very stable.
Due to this the third ionisation energy of Mn is very high. Thus the much large third
ionisation energy of Mn (where the required change is d5 to d4) is mainly responsible for
this.

(a) (i) Because of –I effect of Cl atom in ClCH2COOH and +I effect of CH3 group in CH3COOH
the electron density in the O—H bond in ClCH2COOH is much lower than CH3COOH.
As a result O—H bond in ClCH2COOH is much weaker than in CH3COOH therefore
loses a proton more easily than CH3COOH. Hence ClCH2COOH acid is stronger acid
than CH3COOH.

Na2[Zn(CN)4] on the surface of ZnS thereby preventing it from forming froth. Under these

(b) In butter, water acts as disperse phase and oil acts as dispersion medium.
(c) River water is a colloidal solution of clay. Sea water contains a variety of electrolytes.
When river water meets the sea water, the electrolytes present in sea water coagulate the
colloidal solution of clay resulting in its deposition with the formation of delta.
23. (a) The common oxidation state of lanthanoid is +3. Besides this some of the lanthanoid also exhibit
+2 and +4 oxidation states.
(b) The important characteristics of the transition elements are:
(i) All transition elements are metallic in nature.
(ii) Transition elements exhibit variable oxidation states.
(iii) Most of the transition elements form coloured compounds.
(iv) A number of transition elements and their compounds show catalytic properties.
(c) In 3d transition series zinc is not regarded as transition element as Zn atom has completely filled
d orbitals (3d10) in its ground state as well as in its oxidised state.
OR
(a) The electronic configuration of Mn 2 + is [Ar] 3d5 which is half filled and hence stable. So Mn 2 +
cannot lose third electron easily. On the other hand, Fe 2 + has electronic configuration [Ar] 3d6.
It tends to lose one electron to acquire stable [Ar] 3d5 electronic configuration. Hence Mn2+ is
more stable than Fe2+ towards oxidation.
(b) In the formation of metallic bonds, no electrons from 3d-orbitals are involved in case of zinc,
while in all other metals of the 3d series, electrons from the d-orbitals are always involved in the
formation of metallic bonds. That is why, the enthalpy of atomisation of zinc is the lowest in the
series.
(c) Ti3+ has one electron in d-orbitals (3d1) which can absorb light in visible region for d–d
transition. Hence, it is coloured in aqueous solution. Sc3+ has no d electron (3d 0), therefore, no
light is absorbed for d–d transition. Hence, it is colourless in aqueous solution.

25. (a) The carbohydrates which differ in configuration at the glycosidic carbon (i.e., C1 in aldoses and
C2 in ketoses) are called anomers e.g., a–D-(+)-glucose and b–D-(+)-glucose.
(b) Denaturation of Proteins: When a protein in its native form is subjected to a change, such as
change in temperature or change in pH, the hydrogen bonds are disturbed. Due to this, globules
unfold and helix get uncoiled and protein loses its biological activity. This is called denaturation
of protein. During denaturation, 2° and 3° structures are destroyed but 1° structures remain intact,
e.g., coagulation of egg while on boiling, curdling of milk, etc.

(PHBV), nylon-2-nylon-6 etc.
(iii) Polyethene is an addition polymer.
28. (a) It states that for a solution of volatile liquids, the partial vapour pressure of each component in
the solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction. Thus, for a solution of volatile liquids
A and B, PA µ xA and PB µ xB or PA = PAo x A and PB = PBo x B where PA and PB are partial
vapour pressures, xA and xB are mole fractions, PAo and PBo are vapour pressure of pure
components A and B respectively.

29. (a) (i) Due to inert pair effect Bi in +3 state is much more stable than in +5 state. Therefore, Bi in
+5 state accepts two electrons and get reduced to more stable +3 state. Hence Bi is strong
oxidising in +5 state.
(ii) Nitrogen with n = 2, has s and p orbitals only. It does not have d orbitals to expand its
covalency beyond four. Hence, NCl 5 is not known. PCl5 is known as P has vacant

(b) (i) In vapour form sulphur partly exists as S2 molecules which have two unpaired electrons in
the antibonding p * molecular orbitals like O2 molecule and hence, exhibits paramagnetism.
(ii) This is due to the following reasons:
He does not have d-orbitals in the valence shell and hence electron cannot be excited to
higher energy levels like in Xe to form bonds.
Ionisation enthalpy of He is sufficiently higher than those of oxygen and fluorine.
(iii) Acids which contains P—H bonds have reducing character. Since H3PO2 contains two
P—H bonds while H3PO3 contains only one P–H bond therefore H3PO2 is a stronger

carbon atom. Moreover it also hinder the approach of nucleophile CN- . Since in

Semicarbazide has two –NH2 groups but one of them (i.e., directly attached to C = O) is
involved in resonance as shown above. Thus, electron density on this NH2 group
decreases hence it does not act as a nucleophile. In contrast, the lone pair of electrons on
the other NH2 group (i.e., attached to —NH) is not involved in resonance and hence is
available for nucleophilic attack on the C = O group of aldehydes and ketones.

WB = 3.9 g, WA = 49 g, DTf = 1.62 K, M B = 122 g mol - 1 and K f = 4.9 K kg mol - 1
K f ´ WB ´ 1000
Substituting these values in the equation M B = , we get
DTf ´ WA
4.9 K kg mol - 1 ´ 3.9 g ´ 1000 g kg - 1

MB =
1.62 K ´ 49 g
M B = 240.74 g mol -1

(ii) A racemic mixture contains the two enantiomers d and l in equal proportions. As the rotation due to one
enantiomer is cancelled by equal and opposite rotation of another enantiomer therefore, it is optically
inactive.
(iii) The presence of NO2 group at o/p position in haloarenes helps in the stabilisation of resulting carbanion
by –R and –I effects and hence increases the reactivity of haloarenes towards nucleophilic substitution

(iv) Because aspartame is unstable at cooking temperature.
24. (a) (i) As the size of halogen atom increases from F to I, the bond dissociation enthalpy of H—X bond
decreases from H—F to H—I. Due to this acidic character increases from HF to HI.
(ii) Because of small size and high electronegativity oxygen forms pp-pp multiple bonds and exists as a
diatomic, O2 molecule. These molecules are held together by weak vander Waal forces. Sulphur on
the other hand due to its higher tendency for catenation and lower tendency for pp-pp multiple bond
formation, forms octa-atomic, S8 molecule. Because of bigger size of S8 molecule than O2
molecule the force of attraction holding the S8 molecules together are much stronger than O2
molecules. Hence, there is large difference between the melting and boiing points of oxygen and
sulphur.

8. In transition elements, the energies of (n - 1)d orbitals and ns orbitals are nearly same. Therefore, electrons
from both can participate in bond formation and hence show variable oxidation states.
In transition elements, the oxidation states differ from each other by unity, e.g., Fe 2 + and Fe 3 + , Cu + and
Cu 2 + , etc. while in p-block elements the oxidation state differ by units of two, e.g., Sn 2 + and Sn 4 + , Pb 2 +
and Pb 4 + , etc. In transition elements the higher oxidation states are more stable for heavier elements in a
group e.g., Mo(VI) and W(VI) are more stable than Cr(VI) in group 6 whereas in p-block elements the lower
oxidation states are more stable for heavier elements due to the inert pair effect, e.g., Pb(II) is more stable
than Pb (IV) in group 16.

14. The accumulation of the molecular species at the surface rather than in the bulk of a solid or liquid is known
as adsorption. For example, water vapour are adsorbed by silica gel.
When a gas is adsorbed on the surface of a solid its entropy decreases i.e., DS becomes –ve. Since adsorption
is a spontaneous process therefore DG ( = DH - TDS) must be negative. As - TDS is +ve, DG can be negative
only if DH has sufficiently high –ve value. Hence, adsorption is exothermic in nature.
There are two types of adsorption based on the nature of forces between adsorbate and adsorbent.
(i) Physical adsorption, when accumulation of gas on the surface of a solid occurs due to weak van der Waal
forces.
(ii) Chemical adsorption, when the gas molecules or atoms are held to the surface of solid by chemical bonds.

19. (i) Due to –I and –R effect of NO 2 group electron density in the O—H bond decreases in p-nitrophenol
whereas due to hyperconjugation effect and +I effect of CH3 group, the electron density in the O—H
bond increases in p-methylphenol. Consequently O—H bond in p-nitrophenol becomes much weaker
than O—H bond in p-methyl phenol and hence p-nitrophenol is more acidic than p-methylphenol.
(ii) This is due to:
(a) partial double bond character as a result of the conjugation of unshared electron pair of oxygen with
the aromatic ring and

26. (a) (i) Both are sp 3 hybridised. In NH+4 all the four orbitals are bonded whereas in NH3 there is a lone pair
of electrons on N, which is responsible for lone pair -bond pair repulsion in NH3 reducing the bond
angle to less tetrahedral angle 109°28'.
(ii) Due to inert pair effect the stability of +6 oxidation state decreases down the group from S to TE .
Therefore, reducing character decreases from SO2 to TeO2 .
(iii) Greater the number of oxygen atoms in the conjugate base greater will be the dispersal of negative
charge through pp-dp bonding and hence greater will be the stability of the conjugate base. As the
conjugate base ClO-4 is more stable than ClO- , therefore HClO4 is a stronger acid than HClO.

22. (i) Nitrogen due to small size and high electronegativity forms pp- pp multiple bonds and exist as a
diatomic molecule. These molecules are held together by weak vander Waal forces and hence N2 exist as
a gas at room temperature. In contrast due to larger size and lower electronegativity P does not form
pp- pp bond with itself rather it prefer to form single P–P bonds and exist as tetrahedral P4 molecules.
Due to bigger size, the force of attraction holding P4 molecules are quite strong and cannot broken by the
collision of molecules at room temperature and hence solid at room temperature.
(ii) As we move down the group from O to Te, the size of central atom goes on increasing and its
electronegativity goes on decreasing. Consequently, the bond pairs of electrons tend to lie away from the
central atom as we move from H2O to H2 Te. As a result of this the force of repulsion between the bond
pairs decreases as we move from H2 O to H2 Te and hence the bond angle decreases in the same order.
or
Due to decrease in the tendency of the central atom to undergo sp 3 hybridisation from H2O to H2 Te.
(iii) Halogens have one electron less than the nearest noble gas configuration. Therefore, they have a strong
tendency to accept an additional electron to acquire nearest noble gas configuration and hence they have
maximum negative electron gain enthalpy.

(a) (i) This is due to d-d transition. Under the influence of the ligand attached, the d-orbitals in a transition
metal complex split in two sets of orbitals having slightly different energies. When white light falls
on these complexes they absorb a particular colour from the white light for the promotion of
electrons and remaining colours are emitted. The colour of the complex is due to this emitted
radiations.

6. The addition of a non-volatile solute to a volatile solvent lowers its vapour pressure. In order to boil the
solution, i.e., to make its vapour pressure equal to atmospheric pressure, the solution has to be heated at a
higher temperature. In other words, the boiling point of solution becomes higher than solvent.
As elevation in boiling point depends on the number of moles of solute particles and independent of their
nature therefore it is a colligative property.

14. (i) The motion of the colloidal particles in a zig-zag path due to unbalanced bombardment by the particles
of dispersion medium is called Brownian movement.
(ii) Peptization: The process of converting a precipitate into colloidal sol by shaking it with dispersion
medium in the presence of a small amount of suitable electrolyte is called peptization. During
peptization, the precipitate absorbs one of the ions of the electrolyte on its surface. This causes
development of positive or negative charge on precipitates, which ultimately break up into particles of
colloidal dimension.
(iii) Multimolecular colloids: A large number of atoms or smaller molecules (diameter < 1 nm) of a substance
on dissolution aggregate together to form species having size in the colloidal range. Such species are
called multimolecular colloids. Examples: a sulphur sol consist of particles containing thousands of S8
sulphur molecules, a platinum or gold sol may have particles of various sizes having many atoms.

25. (a) (i) N atom both in NH3 and NH4 is sp 3 hybridised. In NH+4 all the four orbitals are bonded whereas in
NH3 there is a lone pair on N , which is responsible for lone pair-bond pair repulsion in NH3
reducing the bond angle from 109°28' to 107°.
(ii) Due to high electronegativity and same size of oxygen, H2 O undergoes extensive intermolecular
H-bonding and exist as an associated molecule. On the other hand, due to low electronegativity of S,
H2 S is unable to form effective H-bonds and exists as a discrete molecule which are held by weak
vander Waal forces. To overcome these forces only small amount of energy is required. Therefore
H2 S has lower boiling point than H2 O.
(iii) Because the stability of + 4 oxidation state increases from S to Te on moving down the group in group 16
due to inert pair effect.

Liberation of hydrogen prevent the formation of ferric chloride.

(ii) Greater the number of oxygen atom in conjugate base greater will be the dispersal of negative
charge through pp - dp back bonding and greater will be its stability. Thus, ClO-4 is more stable
than ClO - . As the conjugate base ClO-4 is more stable than ClO- . Therefore, HClO4 is stronger
acid than HClO.
(iii) As we move down the group, the size of the atom of the element increases and therefore E—H bond
strength decreases. Thus, Bi—H bond is the weakest amongst the hydrides of elements of group 15
and hence BiH 3 is the strongest reducing agent.
