29. Read the following text carefully and answer the questions that follow: [4]
The unique behaviour of Cu, having a positive E° accounts for its inability to liberate H2 from acids. Only

oxidising acids (nitric and hot concentrated sulphuric) react with Cu, the acids being reduced. The stability of the
half-filled d sub-shell in Mn2+ and the completely filled d10 configuration in Zn2+ are related to their E° values,
whereas E° for Ni is related to the highest negative Δ hyd H°. An examination of the E o
3+ 2+
values the low
(M /M )

value for Sc reflects the stability of Sc3+ which has a noble gas configuration. The comparatively high value for

Mn shows that Mn2+(d5) is particularly stable, whereas a comparatively low value for Fe shows the extra

stability of Fe3+ (d5). The comparatively low value for V is related to the stability of V2+ (half-filled t2g level).

Explanation: Enamel is the hardest substance in the human body and contains the highest percentage of minerals, with water
and organic material composing the rest. The primary mineral is hydroxyapatite, which is crystalline calcium phosphate.
Magnesium is not present in human enamel. However, magnesium is an essential mineral for human health. Magnesium is a
cofactor for more than 300 enzyme systems and is involved in both aerobic and anaerobic energy generation and in glycolysis,
either directly as an enzyme activator or as part of the magnesium-ATP complex. Magnesium is required for mitochondria to
carry out oxidative phosphorylation. It plays a role in regulating potassium fluxes and in the metabolism of calcium.

eg as it is associated
with strong field and low spin situation.
b. H2O is a weak field ligand in [Ni(H2O)6]2+. As a result, Ni2+ has unpaired electrons. In this compound, d-electrons from the
lower energy level can be stimulated to the higher energy level, implying that a d-d transition is possible. As a result,
[Ni(H2O)6]2+ appears green, whereas [Ni(CO)4] is colourless due to the absence of an unpaired electron in the complex. CO is
a strong field ligand that produces electron pairing.
18. As we move from left to right in a series from Sc to Mn atomic radii decreases. This decrease occurs because of increase in
nuclear charge that occurs. After Mn, electron pairing occurs so shielding effect of d orbitals increases which try to increase the
size. From Fe to Ni size almost remains constant because of two factors playing role simultaneously i.e nuclear charge effect as
well as shielding effect. After Ni, size increases from Cu to Zn, because Cu and Zn have completely filled d orbital so shielding
effect plays dominant role.
19. Answer the following:
(i) The reaction in redox titration between KMnO4 and oxalic acid is very slow. By raising the temperature we can increase
the rate of reaction.
(ii) The units of rate of a reaction are mol L-1 s-1. In gaseous reaction the unit of rate of reaction is atm s-1.

Ether

Boiling points: Ethers are isomeric with monohydric alcohols but their boiling points are much lower than those of the isomeric
alcohols. This is due to the reason that unlike alcohols, ethers do not form hydrogen bonds. As a result ethers do not show
molecular association and hence have lower boiling point than corresponding alcohols.

solution.

29. i. Due to the removal of an electron from the stable d10 configuration of Zn2+.
ii. Transition metals despite having high E° oxidation, are poor reducing agents because of their high heat of vaporization, high
ionisation energies and low heats of hydration.
iii. Cr2+ is reducing as its configuration changes from d4 to d3, the having a half-filled t2g level. On the other hand, the change

from Mn3+ to Mn2+ results in the half-filled (d5) configuration which has extra stability.
OR

Page 10 of 13
 The Stability of Cu2+ is more than Cu+ as stability depends on the hydration energy of the ions when they bond to the water
molecules. The Cu2+ ion has a greater charge density than Cu+ ion and thus forms much stronger bonds releasing more
energy.
30. i. The product is based on the phenomenon of Reverse Osmosis between solutions of two different concentration.
ii. When solutions of two different concentration are separated by a semipermeable membrane and excess pressure is applied on
the solution of higher concentration, solvent flow from higher concentration to lower concentration. This is called Reverse
Osmosis and same can be used to treat seawater and convert into drinking water.

(vi)An anomeric carbon can be identified as the carbonyl carbon (of the aldehyde or ketone functional group) in the open-
chain form of the sugar. It can also be identified as the carbon bonded to the ring oxygen and a hydroxyl group in the
cyclic form.
(vii)Glycosidic linkage: It is the linkage which joins two monosaccharides through oxygen atom. It is present in
carbohydrates.
Peptide Linkage: It is the linkage which joins two amino acids through - CO-NH- bond. It is present in proteins.

The degenerate d-orbitals (in a spherical field environment) split into two levels i.e., e and, t in the presence of ligands. The
g 2g

splitting of the degenerate levels due to the presence of ligands is called the crystal-field splitting while the energy difference
between the two levels ( e andt ) is called the crystal-field splitting energy. It is denoted by Δ After the orbitals have split, the
g 2g 0

filling of the electrons takes place. After 1 electron (each) has been filled in the three t orbitals, the filling of the fourth electron
2g

takes place in two ways. It can enter the e orbital (giving rise to t e like electronic configuration) or the pairing of the electrons

pairing energy (P), then the electrons enter the e orbital. On the other hand, if the Δ value of a ligand is more than the pairing
