What is the role of cryolite in the metallurgy of Aluminium?
A: The role of cryolite is as follows:

What is a tailing of mercury? How is it removed?
In the presence of ozone, mercury loses its metallic lustre, meniscus nature and sticks to the walls

up
of glass tube due to the formation of Hg2O. This is called tailing of mercury. The meniscus can be
regained by shaking it with water
2 Hg + O3 → Hg2O + O2

5. Write the reactions of F2 and Cl2 with water.
A:

.ee
F2 being a strong oxidising agent oxidises H2O to O2 or O3
2 F2 (g) + 2 H2O (l) → 4 HF (aq.) + O2 (g)

w w
3 F2 (g) + 3 H2O (l) → 6 HF (aq.) + O3 (g)
Cl2 on the other hand, reacts with H2O to form Hydrochloric acid and Hypochlorous acid.

6. w
Cl2 (g) + H2O (l) → HCl (aq.) + HOCl (aq.)
CuSO4.5 H2O is blue in colour whereas anhydrous CuSO4 is colourless, why?
A: In CuSO4.5 H2O, water acts as ligand. As a result it causes crystal field splitting. Hence, d − d
transition is possible in CuSO4.5 H2O and it shows colour. In the anhydrous CuSO4 due to the
absence of water (ligand), crystal field splitting is not possible. Hence it is colourless.
7. What are artificial sweetening agents? Give example.
A: Artificial sweetners are chemical substances which are sweet in taste but do not add any calories to
our body.
e.g.: Saccharin, Aspartame, Sucralose
8. Arrange the following bases in decreasing order of pKb values.

Sr. INTER CHEMISTRY

A: The stereoisomers related to each other as non − superimposable mirror images are called

11. Derive Bragg's equation.
A: H Suppose two X−rays of wavelength λ are incident on two parallel planes of a crystal surface.

et
H Then they both undergo diffraction.
H First X−ray is diffracted from point 'A' in the first plane with an angle of θ.

.n
H Second ray is diffracted from 'B' in the second plane.

a
bh
H Then, the second X−ray travels some extra distance than the first X−ray. The extra distance (path
difference) travelled by the second X−ray = CB + BD.

i
rat
H According to Bragg, the path difference must be an integral multiple of the wave length (λ) when
the two waves are in constructive interference.
∴ CB + BD = nλ ......(1)

12. What is relative lowering of vapour pressure? How it is useful to determine the molar mass of a
solute?
A: When a non−volatile solute is dissolved in a volatile solvent, the vapour pressure decreases. This
difference between the vapour pressure of pure solvent (Po) and the vapour pressure of the solution
(Ps) is known as lowering of vapour pressure (LVP).
Sr. INTER CHEMISTRY

Mathematically, (Po − Ps) = ∆P

The ratio of lowering of vapour pressure (∆P) to the vapour pressure of pure solvent (Po) is called
relative lowering of vapour pressure (RLVP).
According to Raoult's law, RLVP = XB (mole fraction of solute)

Explain Werner's theory of coordination compounds with suitable examples.
A:
.e
Werner's theory of complex compounds

w w
H Every complex compound has a central metal atom or ion.
H The metal atom/ion shows two types of valencies, like primary valency and secondary valency.

w
Primary valency: It is numerically equal to the oxidation state of central atom. Generally anions
satisfy primary valency of a metal. While representing the structure of a complex compound, these
anions are connected to central metal with dotted lines (........). It is also called ionisable valency.
Secondary valency: The chemical species (groups or ions) which are linked by coordinate covalent
bonds with central metal atom/ion are called 'ligands'. The number of coordinate covalent bonds
formed by central metal atom/ion with ligands is called its secondary valency or coordination
number.
Every metal has a fixed coordination number in a given oxidation state. The species satisfying 2°
valency are not ionisable in solutions. Hence they are represented with continuous line (........) while
writing the structure of complex compound. Due to the presence of ligands which are oriented in a
particular direction, the complex molecule or ion has definite shape.
H Some ligands satisfy both primary and secondary valency of a metal. They are also not ionisable.
H The central metal atom/ion along with ligands is written in a square bracket which is called
complex ion or coordination sphere.
H Ionisable ions which satisfy 1° valency are written out side the square bracket.

Explain the mechanism of nucleophilic bimolecular substitution (SN2) reaction with one example.

.
Bimolecular nucleophilic substitution reactions are known as SN2 reactions. In these reactions, the

∴ Rate ∝ [RX][Nu−]
ibh
rate of reaction depends on the concentration of both alkyl halide and nucleophile.

at
So, there are second order reactions.

r
up
Explanation: It involves only one step. The nucleophile approaches the halide carbon from the
opposite side of the halogen atom to form transition state. It is the slowest step. So, it is known as

ad
SN2 reaction. The transition state is dissociated to form substituted product and halide ion then
formed is completely removed.

en
In these reactions the configuration of the compound is completely inverted like an umbrella blown

inside out. This charge of configuration is called Walden inversion.

19. Describe the salient features of the collision theory of reaction rates of bimolecular reactions.
A: Moleculor collision theory was proposed by Arrhenius. It explains the rate of gaseous bimolecular
reactions.
Main Postulates: H A reaction takes place only when reactant molecules collide with proper
orientation. All collisions do not lead to the formation of products.
H The minimum energy that the reactant molecule should posses to give products is called
threshold energy (ET).
11
 Intermediate Exams Special

H Under STP conditions very few molecules possess ET. But most of the molecules have less
energy than threshold energy.
H The minimum excess energy that reactant molecules should acquire to participate in chemical
reaction or to cross threshold energy barrier is called activation energy Ea = ET − ER.
Sr. INTER CHEMISTRY
H The molecules possessing the threshold energy are called activated molecule and collisions
between these activated molecules alone lead to the formation of products. Hence these collisions
are called activated collisions or fruitful collisions or effective collisions.

H According to Lechatelier's principle, low temperature and high pressure are required to get high
yield of NH3. But at low temperature the reaction is very slow.
Optimum Conditions: Temperature : 725 − 775 K, Pressure − 200 − 300 atm.
Catalyst: Iron oxide mixed with small amount of K2O and Al2O3.
Process: Pure and dry N2 and H2 mixture is compressed to 300 atm pressure then the mixture is
heated to 725 − 775 K and passed over a catalyst.
