When the battery is in use, the following cell reactions take place:
At anode: P b(s) + SO (aq) → P bSO (s) + 2e 2−

The overall cell reaction is given by,


Pb(s) + PbO2(s)+2H2SO4(aq) → 2PbSO4(s) + 2H2O(l)
When battery is charging, the reverse of all these reactions takes place.
Hence, on charging, PbSO4(s) present at the anode and cathode is converted into Pb and PbO2, respectively. Sulphuric acid
(H2SO4) reconstitute in the reaction. The reaction may written as:
charging

2P bO2 (s) + 2H2 O(l) −−−−−→ P b(s) + P bO2 (s) + 2H2 SO4

Section D
29. i. The transition metals are quite similar in size and, therefore, the atoms of one metal can substitute the atoms of other metal in
its crystal lattice. Thus, on cooling a mixture solution of two or more transition metals, solid alloys are formed.
ii. The high enthalpies of atomization are due to a large number of unpaired electrons in their atoms. Therefore, they have
stronger interatomic interactions and hence, stronger bonding between atoms.
iii. Transition elements and many of their compounds are paramagnetic, i.e., they are weakly attracted by a magnetic field. This is
due to the presence of unpaired electrons in atoms, ions or molecules. The paramagnetic character increases as the number of
unpaired electrons increases.
OR
a. The ability of transition metal ion to pass easily from one oxidation state to another and thus providing a new path to
reaction with lower activation energy.
b. The surface of transition metal acts as very good adsorbent and thus provides increased concentration of reactants on their
surface causing the reaction to occur.
30. i. The azeotropic solutions of two miscible liquids may show positive or negative deviation from Raoult's law.
ii. The solution is a non-ideal solution and shows a negative deviation from Raoult's law.

Section E
31. Attempt any five of the following:
(i) Both the aldopentoses(ribose and 2-deoxyribose) have D-configuration.
(ii) The three components of nucleic acid are base, sugar and phosphate group..
(iii)Lactose is present in milk as sugar. Two monosaccharide units (i.e., glucose and galactose) are present in it. Such
oligosaccharides are called disaccharides.
(iv)The main difference between nucleotide and nucleoside lies in their chemical composition. Nucleotide consists of
phosphate group, a sugar and a nitrogenous base. Nucleoside consists of sugar and a base without the phosphate group.
Nucleotides are the major causes of cancer and nucleosides are same as nucleotides only with the addition of phosphate
groups.
(v) Vitamin C cannot be stored in our body because it is water soluble. As a result, it is readily excreted in the urine.
(vi)The milk sugar lactose is converted into lactic acid by the bacteria during curdling of milk.
(vii) a. Acetylation of glucose with acetic anhydride gives glucose pentaacetate which confirms the presence of five -OH
groups. Since, it exists as a stable compound, five -OH groups should be attached to different carbon atoms.

b. Glucose reduces Fehling's reagent. Thus, it is considered as reducing sugar.

32.

i. Geometric isomerism: This type of isomerism is common in heteroleptic complexes. It arises due to the different possible
geometric arrangements of the ligands. For example:

ii. Optical isomerism: This type of isomerism arises in chiral molecules. Isomers are mirror images of each other and are non-
superimposable.

iii. Linkage isomerism: This type of isomerism is found in complexes that contain ambidentate ligands. For example: [Co(NH3)5
(NO2)] Cl2 and [Co(NH3)5 (ONO)Cl2
Yellow form Red form
iv. Coordination isomerism:
This type of isomerism arises when the ligands are interchanged between cationic and anionic entities of different metal ions

Page 12 of 14
present in the complex.
[Co(NH3)5ONO]2+ and [Co(NH3)5NO2]2+
v. Ionization isomerism:
This type of isomerism arises when a counter ion replaces a ligand within the coordination sphere. Thus, complexes that have
the same composition, but furnish different ions when dissolved in water are called ionization isomers. For e.g.,
Co(NH3)5SO4Br, and Co(NH3)5BrSO4
vi. Solvate isomerism:
Solvate isomers differ by whether or not the solvent molecule is directly bonded to the metal ion or merely present as a free
solvent molecule in the crystal lattice.
[Cr(H2O)6] Cl3 [Cr(H2O)5Cl]Cl2.H2O[Cr(H2O)5Cl2 Cl.2H2O
Violet Blue-green Dark green
OR
Coordination entity: This entity usually constitutes a central metal atom or ion, to which are attached a fixed number of other
atoms or ions or groups by coordinate bonds. Examples are [Ni(CO)4], [COCl3(NH3)3], etc.
Ligands: It is an ion having at least one lone pair of electrons and capable of forming a coordinate bond with central atom / ion in
the coordination entity.
Examples are : Cl-, (OH)-, (CN)-etc.
Coordinate number: The total number of coordinate bonds with which central atom/ ion is linked to ligands in the coordination
entity is called coordination number of central atom / ion.
Coordination polyhedron : The spatial arrangement of the ligands which are directly attached to the central atom / ion defines a
coordination polyhedron about the central atom.
Examples are: [Co(NH3)6]3+is octahedral,
[Ni(CO)4]is tetrahedral.
Homoleptic and hedroleptic: Complexes in which a metal is bound to only one kind of donor groups are known as homoleptic.
Example [CO(NH3)6]3+
