c. Catalysis:
The phenomenon of increasing the rate of a chemical reaction with the help of a catalyst is known as catalysis.

Question B.
Define adsorption. Why students can read blackboard written by chalks?
Answer:

Adsorption is the phenomenon of accumulation of higher concentration of ‘one substance on the surface of another (in bulk) due to unbalanced/unsatisfied attractive forces on the surface.
When we write on blackboard using chalk, the chalk particles get adsorbed on the surface of the blackboard.

Hence, students can read blackboard written by chalks.

Question C.
Write characteristics of adsorption.
Answer:
Following are the characteristics of adsorption:

Adsorption is a surface phenomenon.
It depends upon the surface area of the adsorbent.
It involves physical forces (van der Waals forces) or chemical forces (chemical or covalent bonds).
Adsorbate is always present in higher concentration on the surface of an adsorbent than in the bulk.
Adsorption is dependent on temperature (of the surface) and pressure (of adsorbate gas).
It takes place with the evolution of heat (with some exceptions).

Question D.
Distinguish between Lyophobic and Lyophilic sols.
Answer:
Lyophobic sols (colloids):

Lyophobic sols are formed only by special methods.
They are irreversible.
These are unstable and hence, require traces of stabilizers.
Addition of small amount of electrolytes causes precipitation or coagulation of lyophobic sols.
Viscosity of lyophobic sol is nearly the same as the dispersion medium.
Surface tension of lyophobic sol is nearly the same as the dispersion medium.

Lyophilic sols (colloids):

Lyophilic sols are formed easily by direct mixing.
They are reversible.
These are self-stabilized.
Addition of large amount of electrolytes causes precipitation or coagulation of lyophilic sols.
Viscosity of lyophilic sol is much higher than that of the dispersion medium.
Surface tension of lyophilic sol is lower than that of dispersion medium.

Question E.

Printing ink	Solid	Liquid
Fog	Liquid	Gas

Question F.
Write notes on :
a. Tyndall effect
b. Brownian motion
c. Types of emulsion
d. Hardy-Schulze rule
Answer:
a. Tyndall effect:
i. Tyndall observed that when light passes through true solution, the path of light through it cannot be detected.
ii. However, if the light passes through a colloidal dispersion, the particles scatter some light in all directions and the path of the light through colloidal dispersion becomes visible to observer standing at right angles to its path.
iii. The phenomenon of scattering of light by colloidal particles and making path of light visible through the dispersion is referred as Tyndall effect and the bright cone of the light is called Tyndall cone.
iv. Tyndall effect is observed only when the following conditions are satisfied.

The diameter of the dispersed particles is not much smaller than the wavelength of light used.
The refractive indices of dispersed phase and dispersion medium differ largely.

v. Significance of Tyndall effect:

It is useful in determining number of particles in colloidal system and their particle size.
It is used to distinguish between colloidal dispersion and true solution.

b. Brownian motion:
i. The colloidal or microscopic particles undergo ceaseless random zig-zag motion in all directions in a fluid. This motion of dispersed phase particles is called Brownian motion.
ii. Cause of Brownian motion:

Particles of the dispersed phase constantly collide with the fast-moving molecules of dispersion medium (fluid).
Due to this, the dispersed phase particles acquire kinetic energy from the molecules of the dispersion medium.
This kinetic energy brings about Brownian motion.

c. Types of emulsion:
iii. There are two types of emulsions:
a. Emulsion of oil in water (o/w type): An emulsion in which dispersed phase is oil and dispersion medium is water is called emulsion of oil in water.
e.g. 1. Milk consists of particles of fat dispersed in water.
2. Other examples include vanishing cream, paint, etc.
b. Emulsion of water in oil (w/o type): An emulsion in which dispersed phase is water and dispersion medium is oil is called emulsion of water in oil.
e.g. 1. Cod liver oil consists of particles of water dispersed in oil.
2. Some other examples of this type include butter, cream, etc.

d. Hardy-Schulze rule:
i. Generally, greater the valency of the flocculating ion added, greater is its power to cause precipitation. This is known as Hardy-Schulze rule.
ii. In the coagulation of negative sol, the flocculating power follows the following order:
Al³⁺ > Ba²⁺ > Na⁺
iii. Similarly, in the coagulation of positive sol, the flocculating power is in the following order:
[Fe (CN)₆]^4- > PO₄^3- > SO₄^2- > Cl^–

Question G.
Explain Electrophoresis in brief with the help of diagram. What are its applications ?
Answer:
i. Electrophoresis: Electrophoresis set up is shown in the diagram below.

The diagram shows U tube set up in which two platinum electrodes are dipped in a colloidal solution.
When electric potential is applied across two electrodes, colloidal particles move towards one or other electrode.
The movement of colloidal particles under an applied electric potential is called electrophoresis.
Positively charged particles move towards cathode while negatively charged particles migrate towards anode and get deposited on the respective electrode.

ii. Applications of electrophoresis:

On the basis of direction of movement of the colloidal particles under the influence of electric field, it is possible to know the sign of charge on the particles.
It is also used to measure the rate of migration of sol particles.
Mixture of colloidal particles can be separated by electrophoresis, since different colloidal particles in mixture migrate with different rates.

Question H.
Explain why finely divided substance is more effective as adsorbent?
Answer:

Adsorption is a surface phenomenon and hence, the extent of adsorption depends upon surface area of the adsorbent.
Adsorption increases with increase in surface area of the adsorbent.
Finely divided powdered substances provide larger surface area for a given mass.

Hence, finely divided substance is more effective as adsorbent.

Question I.
What is the adsorption Isotherm?
Answer:
The relationship between the amount of a substance adsorbed per unit mass of adsorbent and the equilibrium pressure (in case of gas) or concentration (in case of solution) at a given constant temperature is called an adsorption isotherm.

Question J.
Aqueous solution of raw sugar, when passed over beds of animal charcoal, becomes colourless. Explain.
Answer:

When aqueous solution of raw sugar is passed over beds of animal charcoal, charcoal adsorbs the coloured particles from the raw sugar.
Thus, due to the adsorption of coloured particles, raw sugar becomes colourless when passed over beds of animal charcoal.

Question K.
What happens when a beam of light is passed through a colloidal sol?
Answer:
i. When a beam of light is passed through colloidal sol, it is observed that the colloidal particles scatter some of the incident light in all directions.
ii. Because of this scattering of light, the path of light through the colloidal dispersion becomes visible to observer standing at right angles to its path and the phenomenon is known as Tyndall effect.
iii.

Question L.
Mention factors affecting adsorption of gas on solids.
Answer:
Adsorption of gases on solids depends upon the following factors:

Nature of adsorbate (gas)
Nature of solid adsorbent
Surface area of adsorbent
Temperature of the surface
Pressure of the gas

Question M.
Give four uses of adsorption.
Answer:
i. Catalysis (Heterogeneous catalysis):

The solid catalysts are used in many industrial manufacturing processes.
For example, iron is used as a catalyst in manufacturing of ammonia, platinum in manufacturing of sulphuric acid, H₂SO₄ (by contact process) while finely divided nickel is employed as a catalyst in hydrogenation of oils.

ii. Gas masks:

It is a device which consists of activated charcoal or mixture of adsorbents.
It is used for breathing in coal mines to avoid inhaling of the poisonous gases.

iii. Control of humidity: Silica and alumina gels are good adsorbents of moisture.
iv. Production of high vacuum:

Lowering of temperature at a given pressure, increases the rate of adsorption of gases on charcoal powder. By using this principle, high vacuum can be attained by adsorption.
A vessel evacuated by vacuum pump is connected to another vessel containing coconut charcoal cooled by liquid air. The charcoal adsorbs the remaining traces of air or moisture to create a high vacuum.

Question N.
Explain Bredig’s arc method.
Answer:

Colloidal sols can be prepared by electrical disintegration using Bredig’s arc method.
This process involves vaporization as well as condensation.
Colloidal sols of metals such as gold, silver, platinum can be prepared by this method.
In this method, electric arc is struck between electrodes of metal immersed in the dispersion medium.
The intense heat produced vapourizes the metal which then condenses to form particles of colloidal sol.

Question O.
Explain the term emulsions and types of emulsions.
Answer:
i. A colloidal system in which one liquid is dispersed in another immiscible liquid is called an emulsion.
ii. There are liquid-liquid colloidal systems in which both liquids are either completely or partially immiscible.
iii. There are two types of emulsions:
a. Emulsion of oil in water (o/w type): An emulsion in which dispersed phase is oil and dispersion medium is water is called emulsion of oil in water.
e.g. 1. Milk consists of particles of fat dispersed in water.
2. Other examples include vanishing cream, paint, etc.
b. Emulsion of water in oil (w/o type): An emulsion in which dispersed phase is water and dispersion medium is oil is called emulsion of water in oil.
e.g. 1. Cod liver oil consists of particles of water dispersed in oil.
2. Some other examples of this type include butter, cream, etc.

4. Explain the following :

Question A.
A finely divided substance is more effective as adsorbent.
Answer:

Adsorption is a surface phenomenon and hence, the extent of adsorption depends upon the surface area of the adsorbent.
Adsorption increases with an increase in surface area of the adsorbent.
Finely divided powdered substances provide a larger surface area for a given mass. Hence, a finely divided substance is more effective as an adsorbent.

Question B.
Freundlich adsorption isotherm, with the help of a graph.
Answer:
Graphical representation of the Freundlich adsorption isotherm:

i. Freundlich proposed the following empirical equation for adsorption of a gas on solid.
\(\frac{x}{\mathrm{~m}}\) = k P^1/n (n > 1) ………(i)
where,
x = Mass of the gas adsorbed
m = Mass of the adsorbent
\(\frac{x}{\mathrm{~m}}\) = Mass of gas adsorbed per unit mass of adsorbent
P = Equilibrium pressure
k and n are constants which depend on the nature of adsorbate, adsorbent and temperature.
ii. The graphical representation of Freundlich equation is as shown in the adjacent plot of x/m vs ‘P’.
iii. In case of solution, P in the equation (i) is replaced by the concentration (C) and thus,
\(\frac{x}{\mathrm{~m}}\) = k C^1/n ………(ii)
iv. By taking logarithm on both sides of the equation (ii),
we get
log \(\frac{x}{\mathrm{~m}}\) = log k + \(\frac{1}{n}\) log C ……..(iii)
v. On plotting a graph of log \(\frac{x}{\mathrm{~m}}\) against log C or log P, a straight line is obtained as shown in the adjacent plot. The slope of the straight line is and intercept on Y-axis is log k.
vi. The factor \(\frac{1}{n}\) ranges from 0 to 1. Equation (iii) holds good over limited range of pressures.
a. When \(\frac{1}{n}\) → 0, \(\frac{x}{\mathrm{~m}}\) → constant, the adsorption is independent of pressure.
b. When \(\frac{1}{n}\) = 1, \(\frac{x}{\mathrm{~m}}\) = k P, i.e., \(\frac{x}{\mathrm{~m}}\) ∝ P, the adsorption varies directly with pressure.
c. The experimental isotherms tend to saturate at high pressure.

5. Distinguish between the following :

Question A.
Adsorption and absorption. Give one example.
Answer:
Adsorption:

Adsorption is a surface phenomenon as adsorbed matter is concentrated only at the surface and does not penetrate through the surface to the bulk of adsorbent.
Concentration of the adsorbate is high only at the surface of the adsorbent.
It is dependent on temperature and pressure.
It is accompanied by evolution of heat known as heat of adsorption.
It depends on surface area.
e.g. Adsoiption of a gas or liquid like acetic acid by activated charcoal.

Absorption:

Absorption is a bulk phenomenon as absorbed matter is uniformly distributed inside as well as at the surface of the bulk of substance.
Concentration of the absorbate is uniform throughout the bulk of the absorbent.
It is independent of temperature and pressure.
It may or may not be accompanied by any evolution or absorption of heat.
It is independent of surface area.
e.g. Absorption of water by cotton, absorption of ink by blotting paper.

Question B.
Physisorption and chemisorption. Give one example.
Answer:
Physisorption:

In physisorption, the forces operating are weak van der Waals forces.
It is not specific in nature as all gases adsorb on all solids. For example, all gases adsorb on charcoal.
The heat of adsorption is low and lies in the range 20-40 kJ mol^-1.
It occurs at low temperature and decreases with an increase of temperature.
It is reversible.
Physisorbed layer may be multimolecular layer of adsorbed particles under high pressure.
e.g. At low temperature N₂ gas is physically adsorbed on iron.

Chemisorption:

In chemisorption, the forces operating are of chemical nature (covalent or ionic bonds).
It is highly specific and occurs only when chemical bond formation is possible between adsorbent and adsorbate. For example, adsorption of oxygen on tungsten, hydrogen on nickel, etc.
The heat of adsorption is high and lies in the range 40-200 kJ mol^-1.
It is favoured at high temperature, however, the extent of chemical adsorption is lowered at very high temperature due to bond breaking.
It is irreversible.
Chemisorption forms monomolecular layer of adsorbed particles.
e.g. N₂ gas chemically adsorbed on iron at high temperature forms a layer of iron nitride, which desorbs at very high temperature.

6. Adsorption is surface phenomenon. Explain.
Answer:
Consider a surface of a liquid or a solid.

The molecular forces at the surface of a liquid are unbalanced or in unsaturation state.
In solids, the ions or molecules at the surface of a crystal do not have their forces satisfied by the close contact with other particles.
Because of the unsaturation, solid and liquid surfaces tend to attract gases or dissolved substances with which they come in close contact. Thus, the substance accumulates on the surface of solid or liquid i.e., the substance gets adsorbed on the surface.

Hence, adsorption is a surface phenomenon.

7. Explain how the adsorption of gas on solid varies with
a. nature of adsorbate and adsorbent
b. surface area of adsorbent
Answer:
i. a. Nature of adsorbate:
1. All solids adsorb gases to some extent. It is observed that gases having high critical temperature liquify easily and can be readily adsorbed.
2. The gases such as SO₂, Cl₂, NH₃ which are easily liquefiable are adsorbed to a larger extent as compared to gases such as N₂, O₂, H₂, etc. which are difficult to liquify.
3. Thus, the amount of gas adsorbed by a solid depends on the nature of the adsorbate gas i.e., whether it is easily liquefiable or not.

b. Nature of adsorbent: Substances which provide large surface area for a given mass are effective as adsorbents and adsorb appreciable volumes of gases.
e.g. Silica gel and charcoal are effective adsorbents due to their porous nature.

ii. Surface area of the adsorbent:

Adsorption is a surface phenomenon. Hence, the extent of adsorption increases with increase in surface area of the adsorbent.
Finely divided substances, rough surfaces, colloidal substances are good adsorbents as they provide larger surface area for a given mass.

Note: Critical temperature of some gases and volume adsorbed.

8. Explain two applications of adsorption.
Answer:
i. Catalysis (Heterogeneous catalysis):

The solid catalysts are used in many industrial manufacturing processes.
For example, iron is used as a catalyst in manufacturing of ammonia, platinum in manufacturing of sulphuric acid, H₂SO₄ (by contact process) while finely divided nickel is employed as a catalyst in hydrogenation of oils.

ii. Gas masks:

It is a device which consists of activated charcoal or mixture of adsorbents.
It is used for breathing in coal mines to avoid inhaling of the poisonous gases.

9. Explain micelle formation in soap solution.
Answer:

Soap molecule has a long hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain called tail which is attached to hydrophilic ionic carboxylate group, called head.
In water, the soap molecules arrange themselves to form spherical particles that are called micelles.
In each micelle, the hydrophobic tails of soap molecules point to the centre and the hydrophilic heads lie on the surface of the sphere.
As a result of this, soap dispersion in water is stable.

10. Draw labelled diagrams of the following :
a. Tyndall effect
b. Dialysis
c. Bredig’s arc method
d. Soap micelle
Answer:
a. Tyndall effect:

b. Dialysis:

c. Bredig’s arc method:

Activity :
Collect the information about methods to study surface chemistry.
Answer:
Following are the few methods that are employed to study surface chemistry.
i. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy:
It is a surface-sensitive spectroscopic technique which is used to measure elemental composition of the surface, to determine elements that are present as contaminants on the surface, etc.

ii. Auger electron spectroscopy:
It is a common analytical technique which is used to study surfaces of materials.

iii. Temperature programmed desorption (TPD):
Adsorbed molecules get desorbed when the surface temperature is increased. TPD technique is used to observe these desorbed molecules and helps in providing information about binding energy between the adsorbate and adsorbent.

iv. Scanning Electron Microscopy:
In this technique, a scanning electron microscope is used to focus electron beam over the surface of the sample to be examined. The electron beam interacts with the sample and an image is obtained. This image provides information about surface structure and composition of the sample.

[Note: Students are expected to collect additional information about surface chemistry on their own.]

Question 1.
Collect information about surface chemistry.
Answer:

Surface or interface represents the boundary which separates two bulk phases.
e.g. Boundary between water and its vapour is a liquid-gas interface.
Certain properties of substances, particularly of solids and liquids, depend upon the nature of the surface.
An interface usually has a thickness of a few molecules. However, its area depends on the size of the bulk phase particles.
Commonly considered bulk phases may be pure compounds or solutions.
A number of important phenomena, namely, dissolution, crystallization, heterogeneous catalysis, electrode processes and corrosion take place at an interface.
Thus, study of chemistry of surfaces is critical to many applications in industry, analytical investigations and day-to-day activities such as cleaning and softening of water.
The branch of chemistry which deals with the nature of surfaces and changes occurring on the surfaces is called surface chemistry.
Study of surfaces requires a rigorously clean surface. An ultra-clean metal surface can be obtained under very high vacuum, of the order of 10^-8 to 10^-9 pascal.
Adsorption, catalysis and colloids (such as emulsions and gels) are some of the important aspects of surface chemistry.

Answer:

Characteristics of hydrocarbons:

They are chemical compounds that are formed from only hydrogen and carbon atoms.
Both ‘C’ and ‘H’ share an electron pair forming covalent bonds.
One of the special properties of carbon is its ability to form double and triple bonds (unsaturation). Saturated hydrocarbons are alkanes and cycloalkanes while the unsaturated hydrocarbons are the aromatics, alkenes and alkynes.
All hydrocarbons are insoluble in water, their boiling point increases as the size of alkane increases.
All hydrocarbons can reach complete oxidation.
Hydrocarbons are mainly used as fuel for transport and industry.

Question 1.
Why are alkanes insoluble in water and readily soluble in organic solvents like chloroform or ether?
Answer:

The solubility of any substance is governed by the principle of like dissolves like. This means polar compounds are soluble in polar solvents while nonpolar compounds are soluble in nonpolar solvents.
Alkanes consist of C – C and C – H nonpolar covalent bonds and thus, they are nonpolar in nature, whereas water is a polar solvent.
The dipole-dipole forces that exist between water molecules is much stronger than the forces of attraction between alkane and water molecules.

Hence, alkanes are insoluble in water and readily soluble in organic solvents like chloroform or ether.

Question 1.
Why is sodamide used in dehydrohalogenation of vicinal dihalides to remove HX from alkenyl halide in place of alcoholic KOH?
Answer:

Sodamide (NaNH₂) is a strong base and hence, helps in complete conversion of alkenyl halide formed in the first step to form alkynes.
The base (KOH or NaOH) used in first step gives alkynes in poor yield and hence, stronger bases such as NaNH₂ on KNH₂ are used in second step.

Question 1.
Alkanes and alkenes do not react with lithium amide. Give reason.
Answer:
i. The sp hybrid carbon atom in terminal alkynes is more electronegative than the sp² carbon in ethene or the sp³ carbon in ethane.
ii. Due to high electronegative character of carbon in terminal alkynes, hydrogen atom can be given away as proton (H⁺) to very strong base as shown in the reactions below.

iii. Further, since s-character decreases from sp to sp² to sp³ carbon atom, the relative acidity of alkanes, alkenes and alkynes is in the following order: H – C = C – H > H₂C = CH₂ > H₃C – CH₃
Hence, alkenes and alkanes do not react with lithium amide.

Anaerobic respiration produces less energy because:

Incomplete breakdown of respiratory substrate takes place.
Some of the products of anaerobic respiration can be oxidised further to release energy which shows that anaerobic respiration does not liberate the whole energy contained in the respiratory substrate.
NADH₂ does not produce ATP, as electron transport is absent.
Only 2 ATP molecules are generated from one molecule of glucose during anaerobic respiration.

Question (G)
Write explanatory notes on:

Question (i)
Glycolysis
Answer:
Glycolysis is a process where glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvic acid, hence called glycolysis (glucose-breaking). It is common to both aerobic and anaerobic respiration. It occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. It involves ten steps.
Glycolysis consists of two major phases:
1. Preparatory phase (1-5 steps).
2. Payoff phase (6-10 steps).
1. Preparatory phase:
a. In this phase, glucose is phosphorylated twice by using two ATP molecules and a molecule of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is formed.
b. It is then cleaved into two molecules of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxy acetone phosphate. These two molecules are 3-carbon carbohydrates (trioses) and are isomers of each other.
c. Dihydroxy acetone phosphate is isomerised to second molecule of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate.
d. Therefore, two molecules of glyceraldehyde-3- phosphate are formed.
e. Preparatory phase of glycolysis ends.

2. Payoff phase:
a. In this phase, both molecules of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate are converted to two molecules of 1,3- bisphoglycerate by oxidation and phosphorylation. Here, the phosphorylation is brought about by inorganic phosphate instead of ATP.
b. Both molecules of 1, 3-bisphosphoglycerate are converted into two molecules of pyruvic acid through series of reactions accompanied with release of energy. This released energy is used to produce ATP (4 molecules) by substrate-level phosphorylation.

Question (ii)
Write explanatory notes on: Fermentation by yeast
Answer:
Alcoholic fermentation is a type of anaerobic respiration where the pyruvate is decarboxylated to acetaldehyde. The acetaldehyde is then reduced by NADH+H⁺ to ethanol and Carbon dioxide. Since ethanol is produced during the process, it is termed alcoholic fermentation.

Question (iii)
Write explanatory notes on: Electron transport chain
Answer:

NADH₂ and FADH₂ produced during glycolysis, connecting link reaction and Krebs cycle are oxidized with the help of various electron carriers and enzymes.
These carriers and enzymes are arranged on inner mitochondrial membrane in the form of various complexes as complex I, II, III, VI and V.
NADH+H⁺ is oxidised by NADH dehydrogenase (complex I) and it’s electrons are transferred to ubiquinone (coenzyme Q-CoQ) present on inner membrane of mitochondria. Reduced ubiquinone is called as ubiqunol.
FADH₂ is oxidised by complex II (Succinate dehydrogenase) and these electrons are also transferred to CoQ.
During oxidation of NADH+H⁺ and FADH₂ , electrons and protons are released but only electrons are canned forward whereas protons are released into outer chamber of mitochondria (intermembrane space).
Ubiquinol is oxidised by complex-III (Cytochrome bcl complex) and it’s electrons are transferred to cytochrome C. Cytochrome C is a small, iron-containing protein, loosely associated with inner membrane. It acts as a mobile electron carrier, transferring the electrons between complex III and IV.
Cytochrome C is oxidised by complex IV or cytochrome C oxidase consisting of cytochrome a and a₃. Electrons are transferred by this complex to the molecular oxygen. This is terminal oxidation.
Reduced molecular oxygen reacts with protons to form water molecule called as metabolic water.
Protons necessary for this are channelled from outer chamber of mitochondria into inner chamber by F₀ part of oxysome (complex V) present in inner mitochondrial membrane.
This proton channelling by F₀ is coupled to catalytic site of F₁ which catalyses the synthesis of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. This is oxidative phosphorylation.
As transfer of protons is accompanied with synthesis of ATP, this process is named as ‘Chemiosmosis’ by Peter Mitchell.

Significance of ETS:

Major amount of energy is generated through ETS or terminal oxidation in the form of ATP molecules.
Per glucose molecule 38 ATP molecules are formed, out of which 34 ATP molecules are produced through ETS.
Oxidized coenzymes such as NAD and FAD are regenerated from their reduced forms (NADH+H⁺ and FADH₂) for recycling.
In this process, energy is released in a controlled and stepwise manner to prevent any damage to the cell.
ETS produces water molecules.

Question (H)
How are glycolysis, TCA cycle and electron transport chain-linked? Explain.
Answer:
Glycolysis, TCA cycle and electron transport chain are linked in the following manner:

The coenzymes are initially present in the form of NAD⁺ and FAD⁺ which latter get reduced to NADH+H⁺ and FADH+H⁺ by accepting the hydrogen from organic substrate during glycolysis, link reaction and Krebs cycle.
During glycolysis, glucose is oxidised to two molecules of pyruvic acid with net gain 2 molecules of NADH+H⁺.
This pyruvic acid undergoes link reaction to form two molecules of acetyl CoA and two molecules of NADH+H⁺.
Acetyl CoA, thus formed enters into the Krebs cycle and it gets completely oxidised to C0₂ and H₂0; with a net gain of 6 NADH+H+ and 2 FADH+H⁺ are formed.
During ETS, reduced coenzymes are reoxidized to NAD⁺ and FAD⁺ with a net gain of 34 ATPs. The ATPs thus formed are used during glycolysis.
The oxidized NAD⁺ and FAD⁺ will again accept the hydrogen from organic substrate. Thus, reduced coenzymes are converted back to their oxidized forms by dehydrogenation to keep the process going.

Question (I)
How would you demonstrate that yeast can respire both aerobically and anaerobically?
Answer:
Respiration in yeast can be demonstrated with the help of an experiment.
Anaerobic respiration in yeast:

A pinch of dry baker’s yeast suspended in water containing 10ml of 10% glucose in a test tube (test tube A).
The surface of the liquid is covered with oil to prevent entry of air and the test tube is closed tightly with rubber stopper to prevent leakage.
One end of a short-bent glass tube is inserted through it to reach the air inside the tube.
Other end of the glass tube is connected by a polyethylene or rubber tubing to another bent glass tube fitted into a stopper.
The open end of the glass tube (delivery tube) is dipped into lime water containing in a test tube
(Tube B).
Stoppers of both the tubes are fitted tightly to prevent leakage of gases. First test tube is placed in warm water (37° C-38° C) in a beaker.
Lime water gradually turns milky, indicating the evolution of carbon dioxide from the yeast preparation.
Level of the lime water in the delivery tube does not rise, showing that there is no decline in volume of gas in test tube A and consequently no utilization of oxygen by yeast. Preparation is stored for a day or two.
When we open the stopper of tube A we will notice a smell of alcohol indicating the formation of ethanol.
From this activity it may be inferred that yeast respires anaerobically to ferment glucose to ethanol and carbon dioxide.

Aerobic respiration in yeast: Experiment explained can be carried out for demonstrating aerobic respiration in yeast.

If the level of the lime water in the test tube B rises, indicating intake of oxygen, hence the level of volume of gas rises.
The preparation tube is stored for a day or two, if no smell of alcohol is noticed it indicates that the yeast respires aerobically.

Question (J)
What is the advantage of step wise energy release in respiration?
Answer:
In ETS energy is released in step wise manner to prevent damage of cells.

A stepwise release of the chemical bond energy facilitates the utilization of a relatively higher proportion of that energy in ATP synthesis.
Activities of enzymes for the different steps may be enhanced or inhibited by specific compounds. This provides a means of controlling the rate of the pathway and the energy output according to need of the cell.
The same pathway may be utilized for forming intermediates used in the synthesis of other biomolecules like amino acids.

Question (K)
Explain ETS.
Answer:

NADH₂ and FADH₂ produced during glycolysis, connecting link reaction and Krebs cycle are oxidized with the help of various electron carriers and enzymes.
These carriers and enzymes are arranged on inner mitochondrial membrane in the form of various complexes as complex I, II, III, VI and V.
NADH+H⁺ is oxidised by NADH dehydrogenase (complex I) and it’s electrons are transferred to ubiquinone (coenzyme Q-CoQ) present on inner membrane of mitochondria. Reduced ubiquinone is called as ubiqunol.
FADH₂ is oxidised by complex II (Succinate dehydrogenase) and these electrons are also transferred to CoQ.
During oxidation of NADH+H⁺ and FADH₂ , electrons and protons are released but only electrons are canned forward whereas protons are released into outer chamber of mitochondria (intermembrane space).
Ubiquinol is oxidised by complex-III (Cytochrome bcl complex) and it’s electrons are transferred to cytochrome C. Cytochrome C is a small, iron-containing protein, loosely associated with inner membrane. It acts as a mobile electron carrier, transferring the electrons between complex III and IV.
Cytochrome C is oxidised by complex IV or cytochrome C oxidase consisting of cytochrome a and a₃. Electrons are transferred by this complex to the molecular oxygen. This is terminal oxidation.
Reduced molecular oxygen reacts with protons to form water molecule called as metabolic water.
Protons necessary for this are channelled from outer chamber of mitochondria into inner chamber by F₀ part of oxysome (complex V) present in inner mitochondrial membrane.
This proton channelling by F₀ is coupled to catalytic site of F₁ which catalyses the synthesis of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. This is oxidative phosphorylation.
As transfer of protons is accompanied with synthesis of ATP, this process is named as ‘Chemiosmosis’ by Peter Mitchell.

Question (L)
Discuss “The respiratory pathway is an amphibolic pathway”.
OR
Question (M)
Why is Krebs cycle referred as amphibolic pathway?
Answer:

Respiration is considered as a catabolic process; however, it is not entirely correct in case of Krebs cycle.
Many reactions of Krebs cycle involve oxidation of acetyl CoA to release energy and C02.
However, the breakdown of respiratory substrates provides intermediates like a-ketoglutarate, oxaloacetate are used as precursors for synthesis of fatty acids, glutamic acid and aspartic acid respectively.
Thus, as the same respiratory process acts as catabolic as well as anabolic pathway for synthesis of various intermediate metabolic products, it is called amphibolic pathway.

Question 6.
Identify the cycle given below. Correct it and fill in the blanks and write description of it in your own
Answer:

Krebs cycle or citric acid cycle is the second phase of aerobic respiration which takes place in the matrix of the mitochondria.
The acetyl CoA formed during the link reaction undergoes aerobic oxidation.
This cycle serves a common oxidative pathway for carbohydrates, fats and proteins.
In mitochondria pyruvic acid is decarboxylated and the remaining 2-carbon fragment is combined with a molecule of coenzyme A to form acetyl-CoA.
This reaction is an oxidative decarboxylation process and produces H⁺ ions and electrons along with carbon dioxide. During the process NAD⁺ is reduced to NADH+H⁺.
P-oxidation of fatty acids also produces acetyl-CoA as the end product.
Acetyl-CoA from both sources is condensed with oxaloacetic acid to form citric acid. Citric acid is oxidized step-wise by mitochondrial enzymes, releasing carbon dioxide.
Regeneration of oxaloacetic acid occurs to complete the cycle.
There are four steps of oxidation in this cycle, catalyzed by dehydrogenases (oxidoreductases) using NAD⁺ or FAD⁺ as the coenzyme.
The coenzymes are consequently reduced to NADH+H⁺ and FADH₂ respectively. These transfer their electrons to the mitochondrial respiratory chain to get reoxidised.
One molecule of GTP (ATP) is also generated for every molecule of citric acid oxidized.

Why is glycolysis considered as biochemical proof of evolution?
Answer:

Glycolysis does not require oxygen. Hence it might have been used by earlier organisms for energy production, as there was no free oxygen in atmosphere of primitive earth.
Glycolysis is the first metabolic pathway, an ancient pathway which is common to both aerobic and anaerobic organisms.
All cells have glycolysis in their metabolic pathway.
Upto pyruvate the pathway is similar to all aerobic and anaerobic organisms. Later, the fate of pyruvic acid can be either C0₂ or ethanol or lactic acid depending upon the type of organism.
Hence it is considered as a biochemical proof of evolution.

(i) What is role of Mg⁺⁺, Zn⁺⁺ in various steps of glycolysis?
Answer:
a. Mg⁺⁺ and Zn⁺⁺ are the cofactors that are tightly bound to enzymes and helps the enzymes to perform their functions.
b. They regulate the activity of the most important enzymes like Hexokinase, Phosphoffuctokinase, Triose phosphate dehydrogenase, Phosphoglycerate kinase, Enolase, Pyruvate kinase.

(ii) Why some reactions of glycolysis are reversible and some irreversible?
Answer:
Irreversible chemical reactions:
Some chemical reactions can occur in only one direction i.e. these reactions are irreversible reactions. The reactants can change to the products, but the products cannot change back to the reactants.

Reversible chemical reactions:

Some chemical reactions can occur in both directions i.e. these reactions are reversible reactions. In this case the reactants change to the products and the products can change back to the reactants, atleast under specific conditions.
Out of ten, four are irreversible reactions which involves the enzyme kinase that is required for phosphorylation reactions, these reactions involve large negative energy AG, hence the reactions are irreversible.
Other reversible reactions do not involve high negative energy hence are reversible.

Do the plants breath like animals? If yes, how and why?
Answer:

Yes, plants breath like animals because they also require energy to carry out different metabolic activities. Hence, plants take up oxygen required for respiration and they also give out C0₂.
Plants take care of their gas exchange needs. The stomata and lenticels are important for this purpose.
Leaves are well adapted for gaseous exchange during photosynthesis.
Large amount of gases is exchanged. In plants, each living cell is located quite close to the surface of the plants.

What is effect of carbon monoxide poisoning on cytochromes?
Answer:

At sub-cellular level, carbon monoxide is toxic for mitochondria.
It alters the mitochondrial respiratory chain at the cytochrome c oxidase level (complex IV of the mitochondrial respiratory chain) and causes inhibition of ETS.
This inhibition leads to the development of symptoms observed in acute CO poisoning, and in some diseases related to smoking.
These symptoms include headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, weakness, difficulty in concentration or confusion, visual changes, syncope, seizures, abdominal pain and muscle cramping.

Can you recall? (Textbook Page No. 151)

Which is most preferred nutrient among carbohydrate, protein and fat for energy production? Why?
Answer:

The preferred nutrient is carbohydrate because it quickly supplies energy as compared to other nutrients.
Carbohydrates are easy to digest as compared to fats.
The RQ of carbohydrate is 1. Hence allows complete oxidation of food. Thus, the preferred nutrient is carbohydrate.

Internet my friend (Textbook Page No. 158)

Calculate the RQ for different respiratory substrates using appropriate formula.
Answer:
The RQ for different respiratory substrates are:
1. Carbohydrates (R.Q. is 1)
When carbohydrates are used as substrate, equal volumes of C0₂ and 0₂ are released and consumed respectively, thus its R.Q. is 1.
C₆ H₁₂ O₆ + 6O₂ → 6 C0₂ + 6H₂0
R.Q. = 6C0₂ / 60₂ = 1.0

2. Fats (R.Q. is less than 1)
Substrates like fats are poorer in oxygen than carbohydrates. Thus, more oxygen is utilized for its complete oxidation.
2(C₅₁ H₉₈ O₆) + 145O₂ → 102CO₂ + 98H₂O + Energy
R.Q. = C0₂/ 0₂ = 102 / 145 = 0.7

3. Protein respiration (R.Q. is less than 1)

When proteins serve as respiratory substrate, they are first degraded to amino acids.
Then, amino acids are converted into various intermediates of carbohydrates.
However, amino acids have low proportion of O₂ as compared to carbohydrates.
Thus, they require more O₂ during their complete oxidation and value of R.Q. becomes less than 1.
In case of proteins, the R.Q. is approximately 0.9.

∴ T(K) = -15 °C + 273.15 = 258.15 K
b. T(K) = t°C +273.15
∴ T(K) = 25 °C + 273.15 = 298.15 K
c. T(K) = t°C + 273.15
∴ T(K) = -197 °C + 273.15 = 76.15 K
d. T(K) = t°C + 273.15
∴ T(K) = 273 °C + 273.15 = 546.15 K

∴ 10 atm = 1013250 Pa
= 1.01325 × 10⁶ Pa

b. 1 kPa:
1 kPa = 1000 Pa

c. 107000 N m^-2:
1 N m^-2 = 1 Pa
∴ 107000 Nm^-2 = 107000 Pa

Answer:
a. Exactly 1.5 atm to pascals:
1 atm = 101325 Pa
∴ 1.5 atm = 1.5 × 101325
= 151987.5 Pa

b. 89 kPa to newton per square metre (N m^-2):
1 Pa = 1 N m^-2 and 1 Pa = 10^-3 kPa
∴ 10^-3 kPa = 1 N m^-2
∴ 89 kPa = \(\frac{1 \times 89}{10^{-3}}\) N m^-2 = 89000 N m^-2

c. 101.325 kPa to bar:
1 bar = 1.0 × 10⁵ Pa
= 1.0 × 10² k Pa
∴ 100 kPa = 1 bar
∴ 101.325 kPa = \(\frac{1 \times 101.325}{100}\)
= 1.01325 bar

d. -100 °C to Kelvin:
T(K) = t °C + 273.15

e. 0.124 torr to standard atmosphere:
1 atm = 760 torr
∴ 1 torr = \(\frac {1}{760}\)atm
∴ 0.124 torr = 0.124 × \(\frac {1}{760}\)
= 1.632 × 10^-4 atm

Question J.
Hot air balloons float in air because of the low density of the air inside the balloon. Explain this with the help of an appropriate gas law.

Answer:
The working of hot air balloon can be explained with the help of Charles’ law. According to Charles’ law, at constant pressure, the volume of a fixed amount of a gas varies directly with the temperature. This means that as the temperature increases, the air inside the balloon expands and occupies more volume. Thus, hot air inside the balloon is less dense than the surrounding cold air. This causes the hot air balloon to float in air.

b. Temperature is decreased from 300 K to 150 K at constant pressure
c. Temperature is decreased from 400 K to 300 K and pressure is decreased from 4 bar to 3 bar.
Answer:

Thus, the volume of the gas remains the same.
Hence, there will be no change in the position of the piston.

Question D.
List the characteristic physical properties of the gases.
Answer:
Characteristic physical properties of the gases:

Gases are lighter than solids and liquids (i.e., possess lower density).
Gases do not possess a fixed volume and shape. They occupy entire space available and take the shape of the container.
Gas molecules are widely separated and are in continuous, random motion. Therefore, gases exert pressure equally in all directions due to collision of gas molecules, on the walls of the container.
In case of gases, intermolecular forces are weakest.
Gases possess the property of diffusion, which is a spontaneous homogeneous inter mixing of two or more gases.
Gases are highly compressible.

Question E.

b. The electrostatic force of attraction between positively polarised hydrogen atom of one molecule and a highly electronegative atom (which may be negatively charged) of other molecule is called as hydrogen bond.

c. The pressure exerted by saturated water vapour is called aqueous tension.

d. Dipole moment (p) is the product of the magnitude of the charge (Q) and the distance between the centres of positive and negative charge (r). It is designated by a Greek Letter (p) and its unit is Debye (D).

Question F.
Would it be easier to drink water with a straw on the top of the Mount Everest or at the base ? Explain.
Answer:
When you drink through a straw, the pressure inside the straw reduces (as the air is withdraw by mouth) and the liquid is pushed up to your mouth by atmospheric pressure. Thus, drinking with a straw makes use of pressure difference to force the liquid into your mouth. So, if the pressure difference is less it will be difficult to drink through a straw. On the top of the Mount Everest, atmospheric pressure is very low. Hence, it will be difficult to drink water with a straw on the top of Mount Everest as compared to at the base.

At constant temperature, the pressure of fixed amount (number of moles) of a gas varies inversely with its volume.

b. Statement for Charles’ law:
‘At constant pressure, the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature in Kelvin.

Question K.
Differentiate between Real gas and Ideal gas.
Answer:
Ideal gas:

Strictly obeys Boyle’s and Charles’ law.
\(\frac{\mathrm{PV}}{\mathrm{nRT}}\) = 1
Molecules are perfectly elastic.
No attraction or repulsion between the gas molecules i.e. collision without loss of kinetic energy (K.E.)
Actual volume of the gas molecules is negligible as compared to total volume of the gas.
Ideal gases cannot be liquified even at low temperature but continues to obey Charles’ law and finally occupies zero volume at 0 K.
Practically, ideal gas does not exist.

Real gas:

Shows deviation from Boyle’s and Charles’ law at high pressure and temperature, i.e. obeys Boyle’s law and Charles’ law at low pressure and high temperature. \(\frac{\mathrm{PV}}{\mathrm{nRT}}\) ≠ 1
Molecules are not perfectly elastic.
Intermolecular attraction is present, hence collision takes place with loss of kinetic energy.
Actual volume of individual gas molecule is significant at high pressure and low- temperature.
Real gases undergo liquefaction at low’ temperature when cooled and compressed.
Gases that exist in nature like H₂, O₂, CO₂, N₂, He, etc. are real gases.

4. Answer the following questions

Question A.
State and write mathematical expression for Dalton’s law of partial pressure and explain it with suitable example.
Answer:
i. Statement: The total pressure of a mixture of two or more non-reactive gases is the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases in the mixture.
ii. Explanation:
Dalton’s law can be mathematically expressed as:
P_Total = P₁ + P₂ + P₃ …(at constant T and V)
where, P_Total is the total pressure of the mixture and P₁, P₂, P₃, … are the partial pressures of individual gases 1, 2, 3, … in the mixture.
For example, consider two non-reactive gases A and B. On mixing the two gases, pressure exerted by individual gas A in the mixture of both the gases is called partial pressure of gas A (say P₁). Likewise, partial pressure of gas B is P₂. According to Dalton’s law, total pressure of the mixture of gas A and B at constant T and V will be given as:
P_Total = P₁ + P₂

iii. Schematic illustration of Dalton’s law of partial pressures:

Question B.
Derive an Ideal gas equation. Mention the terms involved in it. Also write how it is utilised to obtain combined gas law.
Answer:
According to Boyle’s law,
V ∝ \(\frac{1}{\mathrm{P}}\) (at constant T and n) ……….(1)
According to Charles’ law,
V ∝ T (at constant P and n) ……(2)
According to Avogadro’s law,
V ∝ n (at constant P and T) ……(3)
Combining relations (1), (2) and (3), we get
V ∝ \(\frac{\mathrm{nT}}{\mathrm{P}}\)
Converting this proportionality into an equation by introducing a constant of proportionality (‘R’ known as gas constant), we get
∴ V = \(\frac{\mathrm{nRT}}{\mathrm{P}}\)
On rearranging the above equation, we get
PV = nRT
where,
P = Pressure of gas,
V = Volume of gas,
n = number of moles of gas,
R = Gas constant,
T = Absolute temperature of gas.
This is the ideal gas equation or equation of state.
[Note: In the ideal gas equation, R is called gas constant or universal gas constant, whose value is same for all the gases. In this equation, if three variables are known, fourth can be calculated. The equation describes the state of an ideal gas. Hence, it is also called as equation of state.]

The ideal gas equation is written as PV = nRT …(1)
On rearranging equation (1), we get,

The ideal gas equation used in this form is called combined gas law.

c. Statement of Boyle’s law: For a fixed mass (number of moles ‘n’) of a gas at constant temperature, the pressure (P) of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume (V) of the gas.
OR
At constant temperature, the pressure of fixed amount (number of moles) of a gas varies inversely with its volume.

Question D.
Write Postulates of kinetic theory of gases.
Answer:
Postulates of kinetic theory of gases:

Gases consist of tiny particles (molecules or atoms).
On an average, gas molecules remain far apart from each other. Therefore, the actual volume of the gas molecules is negligible as compared to the volume of the container. Hence, gases are highly compressible.
The attractive forces between the gas molecules are negligible at ordinary temperature and pressure. As a result, gas expands to occupy entire volume of the container.
Gas molecules are in constant random motion and move in all possible directions in straight lines. They collide with each other and with the walls of the container.
Pressure of the gas is due to the collision of gas molecules with the walls of the container.
The collisions of the gas molecules are perfectly elastic in nature, which means that the total energy of the gaseous particle remains unchanged after collision.
The different gas molecules move with different velocities at any instant and hence have different kinetic energies. However, the average kinetic energy of the gas molecules is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.

Question E.
Write a short note on
a. Vapour pressure.
b. Surface tension
c. Viscosity.
Answer:
a. Vapour pressure:

Molecules of liquid have tendency to escape from its surface to form vapour above it. This called evaporation.
When a liquid is placed in a closed container, the liquid undergoes evaporation and vapours formed undergo condensation.
At equilibrium, the rate of evaporation and rate of condensation are equal.
The pressure exerted by the vapour in equilibrium with the liquid is known as saturated vapour pressure or simply vapour pressure.
Vapour pressure is measured by means of a manometer.
The most common unit for vapour pressure is torr. 1 torr = 1 mm Hg.

[Note: i. The vapour pressure of water is also called aqueous tension.
ii. Water has a vapour pressure of approximately 20 torr at room temperature.]

b. Surface tension:

The particles in the bulk of liquid are uniformly attracted in all directions and the net force acting on the molecules present inside the bulk is zero.
But the molecules at the surface experience a net attractive force towards the interior of the liquid, or the forces acting on the molecules on the surface are imbalanced.
Therefore, liquids have tendency to minimize their surface area and the surface acts as a stretched membrane.
The force acting per unit length perpendicular to the line drawn on the surface of liquid is called surface tension.
Unit: Surface tension is measured in SI unit, N m^-1 and is denoted by Greek letter ‘γ’

c. Viscosity:
i. Liquids (fluids) have tendency to flow.
ii. Viscosity measures the magnitude of internal friction in a liquid or fluid to flow as measured by the force per unit area resisting uniform flow.
iii. Different layers of a liquid flow with different velocity. This called laminar flow. Here, the layers of molecules in the immediate contact of the fixed surface remains stationary. The subsequent layers slip over one another. Strong intermolecular forces obstruct the layers from slipping over one another, resulting in a friction between the layers.
iv. Viscosity is defined as the force of friction between the successive layers of a flowing liquid. It is also the resistance to the flow of a liquid.
v. When a liquid flow through a tube, the central layer has the highest velocity, whereas the layer along the inner wall in the tube remains stationary. This is a result of the viscosity of a liquid. Hence, a velocity gradient exists across the cross-section of the tube.

vi. Viscosity is expressed in terms of coefficient of viscosity, ‘η’ (Eta). The SI unit of viscosity coefficient is N s m^-2 (newton second per square meter). In CGS system, the unit (η) is measured in poise.
1 poise = 1 g cm^-1 s^-1 = 10^-1 kg m^-1 s^-1

How does a bicycle pump work?
Answer:
A bicycle pump works on Boyle’s law. Pushing a bicycle pump squashes the same number of particles into a smaller volume. This squashing means particles hit the walls of the pump more often, increasing the pressure. The increased pressure of a gas can be felt on palm by pushing in the piston of a bicycle pump.

Question 1.
i. Watch Boyle’s law experiment.
ii. Find applications of Boyle’s law.
iii. Try to study how Boyle’s law helps in ‘scuba-diving’ i.e., importance of Boyle’s law in scuba diving an exhilarating sport.
Answer:
i. Students can refer to ‘Boyle’s law experiment’ on YouTube channel of ‘Socratica’.
ii. a. Syringes: When the plunger of a syringe is pulled back out, it causes the volume of the gas inside it to increase due to the reduction of pressure. This creates a vacuum in the syringe, which is constantly trying to adjust the pressure back to normal. However, since the only substance available, such as the blood or medication, is on the other side of the needle, this liquid is sucked into the vacuum, increasing the pressure and decreasing the volume of the gas. When we push the plunger back down, the pressure again increases, lowering the volume inside the syringe, and pushing the fluid out.

b. Respiration: Boyle’s law is essential for the human breathing process. When person breathes in, his/her lung volume increases and the pressure within decreases. Since air always moves from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure, air is drawn into the lungs. The opposite happens when person exhales. Since the lung volume decreases, the pressure within increases, forcing the air out of the lungs

c. Storage of Gases: Many industries store gases under high pressure. This allows the gas to be stored at a low volume, saving plenty of storage space.
[Note: Students are expected to search more on the internet about various other applications of Boyle’s law on their own.]

iii. Importance of Boyle’s law in scuba diving:
a. Boyle’s law affects scuba diving in many ways.
b. It explains the role of pressure in the aquatic environment.
c. As divers descend, the water pressure surrounding them increases, causing air in their body and equipment to have a smaller volume. As the divers ascend, water pressure decreases, causing their body and equipment to expand to acquire a greater volume.
d. Furthermore, it is crucial that scuba divers never attempt to hold their breath when immersed in water.
e. According to Boyle’s law, if divers attempt this when they ascend to a body of water of less pressure, then the air that is trapped in their lungs will over-expand and rupture. This is known as Pulmonary Barotrauma. Thus, it is important for scuba divers to exhale as they ascend because the external pressure increases.
f. Also, if a diver returns to the surface too quickly, dissolved gases in the blood expand and form bubbles, which can get stuck in capillaries and organs (causing the ‘bends’).

Question i.
Why does bicycle tyre burst during summer?
Answer:

According to Charles’ law, at constant pressure, the volume of a fixed amount of a gas varies directly with the temperature. This means that as the temperature increases, the volume also increases.
During summer, the temperature of the surrounding air is high. Due to the high temperature, the air inside the tyre gets heated. This will increase the volume of the tyres and it will burst.

Question ii.
Why do the hot air balloons fly high?
Answer:

According to Charles’ law, at constant pressure, gases expand on heating and become less dense. Thus, hot air is less dense than cold air.
In a hot air balloon, the air inside it is heated by a burner. Upon heating, the air inside the balloon expands and becomes lighter (less dense) than the cooler air on the outside. This causes the hot air balloon to fly high in air.

i. Few real-life examples of Charles’ law:
a. Helium balloon: If we fill a helium balloon in a warm or hot room, and then take it into a cold room, it shrinks up and will look like it has lost some of the air inside it. This shows that gases expand on heating and contract on cooling.
b. A bottle of deodorant: If we expose a bottle of deodorant to sunlight and high temperatures, the air molecules inside the bottle will expand which can lead to the bursting of the deodorant bottle. This is another example of Charles’ law.
c. Basketball: You may have noticed that a basketball has less responsive bounce during winter than in summer. This yet another example of Charles’ law. When a basketball is inflated, the air pressure inside it is set to a fixed value. As the temperature falls, the volume of the gas inside the ball also decreases proportionally.

Question 1.
Why does the pressure in the automobile tyres change during hot summer or winter season?
Answer:

According to Gay-Lussac’s law, at constant volume, pressure of a fixed amount of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
During hot summer, the temperature of automobile tyre increases faster. Consequently, the air inside the tyre gets heated and the gas molecules starts moving faster.
As the volume of the tyre remains constant, the pressure inside it increases.
During winter, the temperature of automobile tyre decreases. Consequently, the air inside the tyre gets cooled and the gas molecules starts moving much slower and the pressure inside the tyre decreases.

Answer:
Law of mass action: The law of mass action states that the rate of a chemical reaction at each instant is proportional to the product of concentrations of all the reactants.

Question B.
Write an expression for equilibrium constant with respect to concerntration.
Answer:
For a reversible chemical reaction at equilibrium, aA + bB ⇌ cD + dD
Equilibrium constant (K_c) = \(\frac{[C]^{\mathrm{c}}[\mathrm{D}]^{\mathrm{d}}}{[\mathrm{A}]^{\mathrm{a}}[\mathrm{B}]^{\mathrm{b}}}\)

Question C.
Derive mathematically value of K_p for A_(g) + B_(g) ⇌ C_(g) + D_(g).
Answer:
When the concentrations of reactants and products in gaseous reactions are expressed in terms of their partial pressure, then the equilibrium constant is represented as K_p.
∴ For the reaction,
A_(g)+ B_(g) ⇌ C_(g) + D_(g)
the equilibrium constant (K_C) can be expressed using partial pressure as: K_p = \(\frac{P_{C} \times P_{D}}{P_{A} \times P_{B}}\)

The change of pressure does not affect the value of equilibrium constant.

Question J.
Differentiate irreversible and reversible reaction.
Answer:
Irreversible reaction:

Products are not converted back to reactants.
Reaction stops completely and almost goes to completion.
It can be carried out in an open or closed vessel.
It takes place only in one direction. It is represented by →
e.g. C_(s) + O_2(g) → CO_2(g)

Reversible reaction:

Products arc converted back to reactants.
Reaction appears to have stopped but does not undergo completion.
It is generally carried out in a closed vessel.
It takes place in both directions. It is represented by ⇌
e.g. N_2(g) + O_2(g) ⇌ 2NO_(g)

Question K.
Write suitable conditions of concentration, temperature and pressure used during manufacture of ammonia by Haber process.
Answer:
i. Concentration: Addition of H₂ or N₂ both favours forward reaction. This increases the yield of NH₃.
ii. Temperature: The formation NH₃ is exothermic. Hence, low temperature should favour the formation of NH₃. However, at low temperatures, the rate of reaction is small. At high temperatures, the reaction occurs rapidly but decomposition of NH₃ occurs. Hence, optimum temperature of about 773 K is used.
iii. Pressure: The forward reaction is favoured with high pressure as it proceeds with decrease in number of moles. At high pressure, the catalyst becomes inefficient. Therefore, optimum pressure needs to be used. The optimum pressure is about 250 atm.

Question L.
Relate the terms reversible reactions and dynamic equilibrium.
Answer:

Reversible reactions are the reactions which do not go to completion and occur in both the directions simultaneously.
If such a reaction is allowed to take place for a long time, so that the concentrations of the reactants and products do not vary with time, then the reaction will attain equilibrium.
Since, both the forward and backward reactions continue to take place in opposite directions in the same speed, the equilibrium achieved is dynamic in nature.

Thus, if the reaction is not reversible then it cannot attain dynamic equilibrium.

Question M.
For the equilibrium.
\(\mathrm{BaSO}_{4(\mathrm{~s})} \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{Ba}_{(\mathrm{aq})}^{2+}+\mathrm{SO}_{4(\mathrm{aq})}^{2-}\)
state the effect of
a. Addition of Ba²⁺ ion.
b. Removal of SO₄^2- ion
c. Addition of BaSO_4(s)
on the equilibrium.
Answer:
a. Addition of Ba²⁺ ion will favour the reverse reaction, (that is, equilibrium shifts from right to left). This increases the amount of BaSO₄.
b. Removal of \(\mathrm{SO}_{4}^{2-}\) ion will favour the forward reaction, (that is, equilibrium shifts from left to right). This decreases the amount of BaSO₄.
c. Addition of BaSO_4(s) will not affect the equilibrium as the equilibrium constant expression does not include pure solids.

3. Explain :

Question A.
Dynamic nature of chemical equilibrium with suitable example.
Answer:
Dynamic nature of chemical equilibrium:
i. Consider a chemical reaction: A ⇌ B.
K_c = [B]/[A]
At equilibrium, the ratio of concentration of the product to that of the concentration of the reactant is constant and this is equal to K_c.

ii. At this stage reaction takes place in both the directions with same speed although the reaction appears to have stopped. Thus, the chemical equilibrium is dynamic in nature. Dynamic means moving and at a microscopic level, the system is in motion.

iii. For example, in the reaction between H₂ and I₂ to form HI, the colour of the reaction mixture becomes constant because the concentrations of H₂, I₂ and HI become constant at equilibrium.
H₂ + I₂ ⇌ 2HI
Thus, when equilibrium is reached, the reaction appears to have stopped. However, this is not the case. The reaction is still going on in the forward and backward direction but the rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction. Hence, chemical equilibrium is dynamic in nature and not static.

Question B.
Relation between K_c and K_p.
Answer:
Consider a general reversible reaction:
aA_(g) + bB_(g) ⇌ cC_(g) + dD_(g)
The equilibrium constant (K_p) in terms of partial pressure is given by equation:
K_p = \(\frac{\left(P_{C}\right)^{c}\left(P_{D}\right)^{d}}{\left(P_{A}\right)^{a}\left(P_{B}\right)^{b}}\) …………(1)
For a mixture of ideal gases, the partial pressure of each component is directly proportional to its concentration at constant temperature.
For component A,
P_AV = n_ART
P_A = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{A}}}{\mathrm{V}}\) × RT
\(\frac{\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{A}}}{\mathrm{V}}\) is molar concentration of A in mol dm^-3 V
∴ P_A = [A]RT where, [A] = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{A}}}{\mathrm{V}}\)
Similarly, for other components, P_B = [B]RT, P_C = [C]RT, P_D = [D]RT
Now substituting equations for P_A, P_B, P_C, P_D in equation (1), we get

where Δn = (number of moles of gaseous products) – (number of moles of gaseous reactants) in the balanced chemical equation.
R = 0.08206 L atm K^-1 mol^-1
[Note: While calculating the value of K_p, pressure should be expressed in bar, because standard state of pressure is 1 bar. 1 pascal (Pa) = 1 N m^-2 and 1 bar = 10⁵ Pa]

Question C.
State and explain Le Chatelier’s principle with reference to
1. change in temperature
2. change in concerntration.
Answer:
Statement: When a system at equilibrium is subjected to a change in any of the factors determining the equilibrium conditions of a system, system will respond in such a way as to minimize the effect of change.

1. Change in temperature:

Consider the equilibrium reaction,
PCl_5(g) ⇌ PCl_3(g) + Cl_2(g) + 92.5 kJ
The forward reaction is exothermic. According to Le Chatelier’s principle an increase in temperature shifts the position of equilibrium to the left.
The reverse reaction is endothermic. An endothermic reaction consumes heat. Therefore, the equilibrium must shift in the reverse direction to use up the added heat (heat energy converted to chemical energy).
Thus, an increase in temperature favours formation of PCl₅ while a decrease in temperature favours decomposition of PCl₅.

2. Change in concentration:

Consider reversible reaction representing production of ammonia (NH3).
N_2(g) + 3H_2(g) ⇌ 2NH_3(g) + Heat
According to Le Chatelier’s principle, when H₂ or N₂ is added to equilibrium, the effect of addition of H₂ or N₂ or is reduced by shifting the equilibrium from left to right so that the added N₂ or H₂ is consumed.
The forward reaction occurs to a large extent than the reverse reaction until the new equilibrium is established. As a result, the yield of NH₃ is increases.
In general, if the concentration of one of the species in equilibrium mixture is increased, the position of equilibrium shifts in the opposite so as to reduce the concentration of this species. However, the equilibrium constant remains unchanged.

Question D.
a. Reversible reaction
b. Rate of reaction
Answer:
a. Reversible reaction:
i. Reactions which do not go to completion and occur in both the directions simultaneously are called reversible reactions.
ii. Reversible reactions proceed in both directions. The direction from reactants to products is the forward reaction, whereas the opposite reaction from products to reactants is called the reverse or backward reaction.
iii. A reversible reaction is denoted by drawing in between the reactants and product a double arrow, one pointing in the forward direction and other in the reverse direction (⇌ or ⇄).
ii. At high temperature in an open container, the CO₂ gas formed will escape away. Therefore, it is not possible to obtain back
e.g. a. H_2(g) + I_2(g) ⇌ 2HI_(g)
b. CH₃COOH_(aq) + H₂O_(l) ⇌ CH₃COO^–_(aq) + H₃O⁺_(aq)

b. Rate of reaction:
Rate of a chemical reaction:
i. The rate of a chemical reaction can be determined by measuring the extent to which the concentration of a reactant decreases in the given time interval, or extent to which the concentration of a product increases in the given time interval.
ii. Mathematically, the rate of reaction is expressed as:
Rate = \(-\frac{\mathrm{d}[\text { Reactant }]}{\mathrm{dT}}=\frac{\mathrm{d}[\text { Product }]}{\mathrm{dT}}\)
where, d[reactant] and d[product] are the small decrease or increase in concentration during the small time interval dT.

Question E.
What is the effect of adding chloride on the position of the equilibrium ?
AgCl_(s) ⇌ Ag⁺_(aq) + Cl^–_(aq)
Answer:
Addition of Cl ion will favour the reverse reaction, (that is, equilibrium shift from right to left) This increases the amount of AgCl.

Question 1.
Calcium earbonate when heated strongly, decomposes to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.
i. If this reaction is carried out in a closed container, what will we observe?
ii. Consider this reaction occurring in an open system or container, what will happen? Can we obtain back calcium carbonate?
Answer:
At high temperature in a closed container, we will find that after certain time, some calcium carbonate is present. If we continue the experiment over a longer period of time at the same temperature, the concentrations of calcium carbonate, calcium oxide and carbon dioxide remain unchanged. The reaction thus appears to have stopped and the system has attained the equilibrium. Actually, the reaction does not stop but proceeds in both the directions with equal rates. In other words, calcium carbonate decomposes to give calcium oxide and carbon dioxide at a particular rate. Exactly at the same rate the calcium oxide and carbon dioxide recombine and form calcium carbonate. Thus, in closed container, reversible reaction occurs.

ii. At high temperature in an open container, the CO₂ gas formed will escape away. Therefore, it is not possible to obtain back calcium carbonate. Thus, in an open container, irreversible reaction occurs.

Question 1.
i. Equilibrium existing in the formation of oxyhaemoglobin in human body
ii. Refrigeration system in equilibrium
Answer:
i. Equilibrium existing in the formation of oxyhaemoglobin in human body:
Oxygen is transported in the body with the assistance of red blood cells. The red blood cells contain a pigment called haemoglobin. Each haemoglobin molecule binds four oxygen molecules to form oxyhaemoglobin. Thus, the oxygen molecules are carried to individual cells in the body tissue where they are released.

The binding of oxygen to haemoglobin is a reversible reaction.
Hb + 4O₂ ⇌ Hb.4O₂
When the oxygen concentration is high (in the lungs), haemoglobin and oxygen combine to form oxyhaemoglobin and the reaction achieves equilibrium. But, when the oxygen concentration is low (in the body tissue), the reverse reaction occurs, that is, oxyhaemoglobin dissociates to haemoglobin and oxygen.
Thus, an equilibrium exists in the formation of oxyhaemoglobin in the human body.

ii. Refrigeration system in equilibrium:
a. Refrigeration system works on the principle of thermal equilibrium i.e., when a cold body comes in contact with a hot body then the heat flows from hot body to cold body until both the bodies attain the same temperature.
b. In the same way, a liquid (called as refrigerant) passes through the various compartments in the refrigerator and eventually lowers the temperature inside the refrigerator. This cycle is briefly described below:
Refrigerant flows through the compressor, which raises the pressure of the refrigerant. Next, the refrigerant flows through the condenser, where it condenses from vapor form to liquid form, giving off heat in the process. The heat given off is what j makes the condenser “hot to the touch.” After the condenser, the refrigerant goes through the expansion valve, where it experiences a pressure drop. Finally, the refrigerant goes to the evaporator. The refrigerant draws heat from the evaporator which causes the refrigerant to vaporize. The evaporator draws heat from the region that is to be cooled. The vaporized refrigerant goes back to the compressor to restart the cycle. In each of the heat transfer process, equilibrium is achieved (that is, heat given off is equivalent to the cooling achieved.)

Question 1.
i. Place some iodine crystals in a closed vessel. Observe the change in colour intensity in it.
ii. What do you see in the flask after some time?
Answer:
i. The vessel gets slowly filled up with violet coloured vapour of iodine. After a certain time, the intensity of violet colour becomes stable.
ii. After sometime, both solid iodine and iodine vapour are present in the closed vessel. Iodine crystals will be seen deposited near the mouth of the flask and violet coloured vapour will be filled in the entire flask.

Question 1.
i. Dissolve a given amount of sugar in minimum amount of water at room temperature.
ii. Increase the temperature and dissolve more amount of sugar in the same amount of water to make a thick sugar syrup solution.
iii. Cool the syrup to the room temperature.
Answer:
Observation: Sugar crystals separate out.
Inference: The sugar syrup solution prepared is a saturated solution. Therefore, additional amount of sugar cannot be dissolved in it at room temperature.
In a saturated solution, there exists dynamic equilibrium between the solute molecules in the solid state and in dissolved state.
Sugar_(aq) ⇌ Sugar_(s)
The rate of dissolution of sugar = The rate of crystallization of sugar.
However, when it is heated, additional amount of sugar can be dissolved in it. But when such a thick sugar syrup is cooled again to room temperature, sugar crystals separate out.

Question 1.
Colourless N₂O₄ taken in a closed flask is converted to NO₂ (a reddish brown gas).

Answer:
Observation: Initially, the colourless gas (N₂O₄) turns to reddish brown (NO₂) gas. After sometime, the colour becomes lighter indicating the formation of N₂O₄ from NO₂.
Inference: This indicates that the reaction is reversible. In such reaction, the reactants combine to form the products and the products combine to give the reactants. As soon as the forward reaction produces any NO₂, the reverse reaction begins and NO₂, starts combining back to N₂O₄. At equilibrium, the concentrations of N₂O₄ and NO₂remain unchanged and do not vary with time, because the rate of formation of NO₂ is equal to the rate of formation of N₂O₄.

[Note: For any reversible reaction in a closed system whenever the opposing reactions (forward and reaction) are occurring at different rates, the forward reaction will gradually become slower and the reverse reaction will become faster. Finally, the rates become equal and equilibrium is established.]

i. Consider the following dissociation reaction:

The reaction is carried out in a closed vessel starting with hydrogen iodide.
ii. Now, let us start with hydrogen and iodine vapour in a closed container at a certain temperature.
H_2(g) + I_2(g) ⇌ 2HI_(g)
Answer:
i. Starting with hydrogen iodide:
Observations:
a. At first, there is an increase in the intensity of violet colour.
b. After certain time, the increase in the intensity of violet colour stops.
c. When contents in a closed vessel are analyzed at this stage, it is observed that reaction mixture contains the hydrogen iodide, hydrogen and iodine with their concentrations being constant over time.
Inference:
The rate of decomposition of HI becomes equal to the rate of combination of H₂ and I₂. At equilibrium, no net change is observed and both reactions continue to occur at equal rates.
Thus, the reaction represents chemical equilibrium.

ii. Starting with hydrogen and iodine:
Observations:
a. At first, there is a decrease in the intensity of violet colour.
b. After certain time, the decrease in the intensity of violet colour stops.
c. When contents in a closed vessel are analyzed at this stage, it is observed that reaction mixture contains hydrogen, iodine and hydrogen iodide with their concentrations being constant over time.
Inference:
The rate of combination of H₂ and I₂ becomes equal to the rate of decomposition of HI. The reaction attains chemical equilibrium.

Question 1.
Two processes, which are taking place in opposite directions are in equilibrium. How to write equilibrium constant expersions for heterogeneous equilibrium?
Answer:
Equilibrium in a system having more than one phase is called heterogeneous equilibrium.
If ethanol is placed in a conical flask, liquid-vapour equilibrium is established.
C₂H₅OH_(l) ⇌ C₂H₅OH_(g)
For a given temperature,
K_c = \(\frac{\left[\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}_{(g)}\right]}{\left[\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}_{(l)}\right]}\)
But [C₂H₅OH_(l)] = 1
∴ K_c = [C₂H₅OH_(g)]
Thus, at any given temperature, density is constant irrespective of the amount of liquid, and the term in the denominator is also constant.
ii. similarly, consider I_2(g) ⇌ I_2(g)
K_c = [I₂(g)]
iii. Thus, the expression for equilibrium constant does not contain the concentration of pure solids and pure liquids. That is because for any pure liquid and solid, the concentration is simply its density and this will not change no matter how much solid or liquid is used. Hence, the expression for heterogeneous equilibrium only uses the concentration of gases and dissolved substances (aq.). Solids are pure substances with unchanging concentrations and thus equilibria including solids are simplified.

Question 1.
Comment on the extent to which the forward reaction will proceed, from the magnitude of the equilibrium constant for the following reactions:
i. H_2(g) + I_2(g) ⇌ 2HI_(g), K_c = 20 at 550 K
ii. H_2(g) + Cl_2(g) ⇌ 2HCl_(g), K_c = 1018 at 550 K
Answer:
i. For the reaction, K_c = 20 at 550 K
If the value of K_c is the range of 10^-3 to 10³, the forward and reverse proceed to equal extents.
Hence, the given reaction will form appreciable concentrations of both reactants and the product at equilibrium.

ii. For the reaction, K_c = 10¹⁸ at 550 K
If the value of K_c >>> 10³, forward reaction is favoured.
Hence, the given reaction will proceed in the forward direction and will nearly go to completion.

Question 1.
The value of Kc for the dissociation reaction:
H_2(g) ⇌ 2H_(g) is 1.2 × 10^-42 at 500 K.
Does the equilibrium mixture contain mainly hydrogen molecules or hydrogen atoms?
Answer:
When the value of K_c is very low (that is, K_c < 10^-3), then at equilibrium, only a small fraction of the reactants is converted into products.
For the given reaction, K_c <<< 10³ at 500 K.
Hence, the equilibrium mixture contains mainly hydrogen molecules.

Hence, Ne, O^2-, Na⁺ are isoelectronic species.

6. Answer the following questions.

Question A.
Differentiate between Isotopes and Isobars.
Answer:

No.	Isotopes	Isobars
i.	Isotopes are atoms of same element.	Isobars are atoms of different elements.
ii.	They have same atomic number but different atomic mass number.	They have same atomic mass number but different atomic numbers.
iii.	They have same number of protons but different number of neutrons.	They have different number of protons and neutrons.

Question B.
Define the terms:
i. Isotones
ii. Isoelectronic species

i. Isotones: Isotones are defined as the atoms of different elements having same number of neutrons in their nuclei. e.g. \({ }_{5}^{11} \mathrm{B}\) and \({ }_{6}^{12} \mathrm{C}\) having 6 neutrons each are isotones.

ii. Isoelectronic species:
soelectronic species are defined as atoms and ions having the same number of electrons.
e. g. Ar, Ca²⁺ and K⁺ containing 18 electrons each.

iii. Electronic configuration:
Electronic configuration of an atom is defined as the distribution of its electrons in orbitals.

Question C.
State and explain Pauli’s exclusion principle.
Answer:
Pauli’s exclusion principle:
i. Statement: “No two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers”. OR “Only two electrons can occupy the same orbital and they must have opposite spins. ”
ii. The capacity of an orbital to accommodate electrons is decided by Pauli’s exclusion principle.
iii. According to this principle, for an electron belonging to the same orbital, the spin quantum number must be different since the other three quantum numbers are the same.
iv. The spin quantum number can have two values: +\(\frac {1}{2}\) and –\(\frac {1}{2}\).
v. Example, consider helium (He) atom with electronic configuration 1 s².
For the two electrons in Is orbital, the four quantum numbers are as follows:
Electron number Quantum number Set of values of quantum numbers

Thus, in an atom, any two electrons can have the same three quantum numbers, but the fourth quantum number must be different.
vi. This leads to the conclusion that an orbital can accommodate maximum of two electrons and if it has two electrons, they must have opposite spin.

Question D.
State Hund’s rule of maximum multiplicity with suitable example.
Answer:
Hund’s rule of maximum multiplicity:
i. Statement: “Pairing of electrons in the orbitals belonging to the same subshell does not occur unless each orbital belonging to that subshell has got one electron each.”
ii. Example, according to Hund’s rule, each of the three-degenerate p-orbitals must get one electron of parallel spin before any one of them receives the second electron of opposite spin. Therefore, the configuration of four electrons occupying p-orbitals is represented as

iii. As a result of Hund’s rule, the atom with fully filled and half-filled set of degenerate orbitals has extra stability.

Question E.
Write the drawbacks of Rutherford’s model of an atom.
Answer:
Drawbacks of Rutherford’s model of an atom:
i. Rutherford’s model of an atom resembles the solar system with the nucleus playing the role of the massive sun and the electrons are lighter planets. Thus, according to this model, electrons having negative charge revolve in various orbits around the nucleus. However, the electrons revolving about the nucleus in fixed orbits pose a problem. Such orbital motion is an accelerated motion accompanied by a continuous change in the velocity of electron as noticed from the continuously changing direction. According to Maxwell’s theory of electromagnetic radiation, accelerated charged particles would emit electromagnetic radiation. Hence, an electron revolving around the nucleus should continuously emit radiation and lose equivalent energy. As a result, the orbit would shrink continuously and the electron would come closer to the nucleus by following a spiral path. It would ultimately fall into the nucleus. Thus, Rutherford’s model has an intrinsic instability of atom. However, real atoms are stable.

ii. Rutherford’s model of an atom does not describe the distribution of electrons around the nucleus and their energies.

Question F.
Write postulates of Bohr’s Theory of hydrogen atom.
Answer:
Postulates of Bohr’s theory of hydrogen atom:
i. The electron in the hydrogen atom can move around the nucleus in one of the many possible circular paths of fixed radius and energy. These paths are called orbits, stationary states or allowed energy states. These orbits are arranged concentrically around the nucleus in an increasing order of energy.

ii. The energy of an electron in the orbit does not change with time. However, the electron will move from a lower stationary state to a higher stationary state if and when the required amount of energy is absorbed by the electron. Energy is emitted when electron moves from a higher stationary state to a lower stationary state. The energy change does not take place in a continuous manner.

iii. The frequency of radiation absorbed or emitted when transition occurs between two stationary states that differ in energy by ΔE is given by the following expression:
ν = \(\frac{\Delta E}{h}=\frac{E_{2}-E_{1}}{h}\) ………….(1)
Where E₁ and E₂ are the energies of the lower and higher allowed energy states respectively. This expression is commonly known as Bohr’s frequency rule.

iv. The angular momeñtum of an electron in a given stationary state can be expressed as mvr = n × h/2π
where, n 1,2, 3
Thus, an electron can move only in those orbits for which its angular momentum is integral multiple of h/2π.
Thus, only certain fixed orbits are allowed.

Question G.
Mention demerits of Bohr’s Atomic model.
Answer:
Demerits of Bohr’s atomic model:

Bohr’s atomic model (theory) failed to account for finer details of the atomic spectrum of hydrogen as observed in sophisticated spectroscopic experiments.
Bohr’s atomic model (theory) was unable to explain the spectrum of atoms other than hydrogen.
Bohr’s atomic model (theory) could not explain the splitting of spectral lines in the presence of a magnetic field (Zeeman effect) or electric field (Stark effect).
Bohr’s atomic model (theory) failed to explain the ability of atoms to form molecules by chemical bonds.

Question H.
State the order of filling atomic orbitals following Aufbau principle.
Answer:
Aufbau principle:
i. Aufbau principle gives the sequence in which various orbitals are filled with electrons.
ii. In the ground state of an atom, the orbitals are filled with electrons based on increasing order of energies of orbitals, Pauli’s exclusion principle and Hund’s rule of maximum multiplicity.
iii. Increasing order of energies of orbitals:

Orbitals are filled in order of increasing value of (n + l)
In cases where the two orbitals have same value of (n + l), the orbital with lower value of n is filled first.

iv. The increasing order of energy of different orbitals in a multi-electron atom is:
1s < 2s < 2p < 3s < 3p < 4s < 3d < 4p < 5s < 4d < 5p < 6s < 4f < 5d < 6p < 7s and so on.

Question I.
Explain the anomalous behavior of copper and chromium.
Answer:
i. Copper:

Copper (Cu) has atomic number 29.
Its expected electronic configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d⁹.
The 3d orbital is neither half-filled nor fully filled. Hence, it has less stability.
Due to interelectronic repulsion forces, one 4s electron enters into 3d orbital. This makes 3d orbital completely filled and 4s orbital half-filled which gives extra stability and the electronic configuration of Cu becomes, 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹ 3d¹⁰.

ii. Chromium:

Chromium (Cr) has atomic number 24.
Its expected electronic configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s²3d⁴.
The 3d orbital is less stable as it is not half-filled.
Due to inter electronic repulsion forces, one 4s electron enters into 3d orbital. This makes 4s and 3d orbitals half-filled which gives extra stability and the electronic configuration of Cr becomes, 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹ 3d⁵.

Question J.
Write orbital notations for electrons in orbitals with the following quantum numbers.
a. n = 2, l =1
b. n = 4, l = 2
c. n = 3, l = 2
Answer:
i. 2p
ii. 4d
iii. 3d

Question K.

Answer:
2s orbital:

2p orbital:

Question N.
Explain in brief, the significance of azimuthal quantum number.
Answer:
Azimuthal quantum number (l):

Azimuthal quantum number is also known as subsidiary quantum number and is represented by letter l.
It represents the subshell to which the electron belongs. It also defines the shape of the orbital that is occupied by the electron.
Its value depends upon the value of principal quantum number ‘n’. It can have only positive values between 0 and (n – 1).
Atomic orbitals with the same value of ‘n’ but different values of ‘l’ constitute a subshell belonging to the shell for the given ‘n’ The azimuthal quantum number gives the number of subshells in a principal shell. The subshells have l to be 0, 1, 2,3 … which are represented by symbols s, p, d, f, … respectively.

Question O.
If n = 3, what are the quantum number l and m_l?
Answer:
: For a given n, l = 0 to (n – 1) and for given l, m_l = -l……, 0…….. + l
Therefore, the possible values of l and m_l for n = 3 are:

Question P.
The electronic configuration of oxygen is written as 1s² 2s² 2p_x² 2p_y¹ 2p_z¹ and not as 1s² 2s² 2p_x² 2p_y² 2p_z⁰. Explain.
Answer:

According to Hund’s rule of maximum multiplicity “Pairing of electrons in the orbitals belonging to the same subshell does not occur unless each orbital belonging to that subshell has got one electron each.”
Oxygen has 8 electrons. The first two electrons will pair up in the Is orbital, the next two electrons will pair up in the 2s orbital and this leaves 4 electrons, which must be placed in the 2p orbitals.
Each of the three degenerate p-orbitals must get one electron of parallel spin before any one of them receives the second electron of opposite spin. Therefore, two p orbitals have one electron each and one p-orbital will have two electrons.

Thus, the electronic configuration of oxygen is written as 1s² 2s² 2p_x² 2p_y¹ 2p_z¹ and not as 1s² 2s² 2p_x² 2p_y² 2p_z⁰.

Question Q.
Write note on ‘Principal Quantum number.
Answer:
Principal quantum number (n):
i. Principal quantum number indicates the principal shell or main energy level to which the electron belongs.
ii. It is denoted by ‘n’ and is a positive integer with values 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ….
iii. A set of atomic orbitals with given value of ‘n’ constitutes a single shell. These shells are also represented by the letters K, L, M, N, etc.
iv. With increase of ‘n’, the number of allowed orbitals in that shell increases and is given by n².
v. The allowed orbitals in the first four shells are given below:

vi. As the value of ‘n’ increases, the distance of the shell from the nucleus increases and the size of the shell increases. Its energy also goes on increasing.

Question R.
Using concept of quantum numbers, calculate the maximum numbers of electrons present in the ‘M’ shell. Give their distribution in shells, subshells and orbitals.
Answer:
i. Each main shell contains a maximum of 2n² electrons.
For ‘M’ shell, n = 3.
Therefore, the maximum numbers of electrons present in the ‘M’ shell = 2 × (3)² = 18.

ii. The distribution of these electrons in shells, subshells and orbitals can be given as follows:

Note: Orbital distribution in the first four shells:

Question S.
Indicate the number of unpaired electrons in :
a. Si (Z = 14)
b. Cr (Z = 24)
Answer:
i. . Si (Z = 14): 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p²
Orbital diagram:

Number of unpaired electrons = 2

ii. Cr (Z = 24): 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s¹ 3d⁵
Orbital diagram:

Number of unpaired electrons = 6

Question T.

a. the number of protons
b. the electronic configuration of that element.
Answer:
a. In an atom, number of protons is equal to number of electrons.

Question 1.
What does the negative sign of electron energy convey?
Answer:
Negative sign for the energy of an electron in any orbit in a hydrogen atom indicates that the energy of the electron in the atom is lower than the energy of a free electron at rest. A free electron at rest is an electron that is infinitely far away from the nucleus and is assigned the energy value of zero.

As the electron gets close to the nucleus, value of ‘n’ decreases and E_n becomes large in absolute value and more negative. The negative sign corresponds to attractive forces between electron and nucleus.

Class 11 Chemistry Chapter 7 Exercise Solutions Maharashtra Board

Chemistry Class 11 Chapter 7 Exercise Solutions

1. Explain the following

Question A.
The elements Li, B, Be and N have the electronegativities 1.0, 2.0, 1.5 and 3.0, respectively on the Pauling scale.
Answer:

Li, B, Be and N belong to same period.
As we move across a period from left to right in the periodic table, the effective nuclear charge increases steadily and therefore, electronegativity increases.

Hence, the elements Li, B, Be and N have the electronegativities 1.0, 2.0, 1.5 and 3.0, respectively on the Pauling scale.

Question B.
The atomic radii of Cl, I and Br are 99, 133 and 114 pm, respectively.
Answer:

Cl, I and Br belong to group 17 (halogen group) in the periodic table.
As we move down the group from top to bottom in the periodic table, a new shell gets added in the atom of the elements.
As a result, the effective nuclear charge decreases due to increase in the atomic size as well as increased shielding effect.
Therefore, the valence electrons experience less attractive force from the nucleus and are held less tightly resulting in the increased atomic radius.
Thus, their atomic radii increases in the following order down the group.
Cl (99 pm) < Br (114 pm) < I (133 pm)

Hence, the atomic radii of Cl, I and Br are 99, 133 and 114 pm, respectively.

Question C.
The ionic radii of F^– and Na⁺ are 133 and 98 pm, respectively.
Answer:

F^– and Na⁺ are isoelectronic ions as they both have 10 electrons.
However, the nuclear charge on F^– is +9 while that of Na⁺ is +11.
In isoelectronic species, larger nuclear charge exerts greater attraction on the electrons and thus, the radius of that isoelectronic species becomes smaller.

Thus, F^– has larger ionic radii (133 pm) than Na⁺ (98 pm).

Question D.
₁₃Al is a metal, ₁₄Si is a metalloid and ₁₅P is a nonmetal.
Answer:

Electronic configuration of Al is [Ne] 3s²3p¹, ₁₄Si is [Ne] 3s² 3p² and that of ₁₅P is [Ne] 3s² 3p³.
Metals are characterized by the ability to form compounds by loss of valence electrons.
‘Al’ has 3 valence electrons, thus shows tendency to lose 3 valence electrons to complete its octet. Hence, Al is a metal.
Nonmetals are characterized by the ability to form compounds by gain of valence electrons in valence shell.
‘P’ has 5 valence electrons thus, shows tendency to gain 3 electrons to complete its octet. Hence, ‘P’ is a nonmetal.
Si has four valence electrons, thus it can either lose/gain electrons to complete its octet. Hence, behaves as a metalloid.

Question E.
Cu forms coloured salts while Zn forms colourless salts.
Answer:

Electronic configuration of ₂₉CU is [Ar] 3d¹⁰4s¹ while that of Zn is [Ar] 3d¹⁰4s².
Electronic configuration of Cu in its +1 oxidation state is [Ar] 3d¹⁰ while that in +2 oxidation state is [Ar] 3d⁹.
Therefore, Cu contains partially filled d orbitals in +2 oxidation state and thus, Cu²⁺ salts are coloured.
However, Zn has completely filled d orbital which is highly stable and hence, it does not form coloured ions.

Hence, Cu forms coloured salts while Zn forms colourless salts.

2. Write the outer electronic configuration of the following using orbital notation method. Justify.
A. Ge (belongs to period 4 and group 14)
B. Po (belongs to period 6 and group 16)
C. Cu (belongs to period 4 and group 11)
Answer:
A. a. Ge belongs to period 4. Therefore, n = 4.
b. Group 14 indicates that the element belongs to the p-block of the modem periodic table.
c. The general outer electronic configuration of group 14 elements is ns² np².
d. Thus, the outer electronic configuration of Ge is 4s² 4p².

B. a. Po belongs to period 6. Therefore, n = 6.
b. Group 16 indicates that the element belongs to the p-block of the modem periodic table.
c. The general outer electronic configuration of group 16 elements is ns² np⁴.
d. Thus, the outer electronic configuration of Po is 6s² 6p⁴.

C. a. Cu belongs to period 4. Therefore, n = 4.
b. Group 11 indicates that the element belongs to the d-block of the modem periodic table.
c. The general outer electronic configuration of the d-block elements is ns^0-2(n-1)d^1-10.
d. The expected configuration of Cu is 4s²3d⁹. However, the observed configuration of Cu is 4s¹3d¹⁰. This is due to the extra stability associated with completely filled d-subshell. Thus, the outer electronic configuration of Cu is 4s¹3d¹⁰.

3. Answer the following

Question A.
La belongs to group 3 while Hg belongs to group 12 and both belong to period 6 of the periodic table. Write down the general outer electronic configuration of the ten elements from La to Hg together using orbital notation method.
Answer:
i. La and Hg both belongs to period 6. Therefore, n = 6.
ii. Elements of group 3 to group 12 belong to the d-block of the modem periodic table.
iii. The general outer electronic configuration of the d-block elements is ns^0-2 (n -1 )^1-10.
iv. Therefore, the outer electronic configuration of all ten elements from La to Hg is as given in the table below.

[Note: There are 14 elements between La and Hf which are called lanthanides. Therefore, after La, electrons are filled in 4f subshell of lanthanide elements. Once all the 14 elements of lanthanide series are filled, next electron enters 5d subshell of Hf. Hence, the outer electronic configurations of Hf to Hg often include completely filled 4f subshell. For example, the electronic configuration of Hf ‘5d²6s²’ can also be written as ‘4f¹⁴5d²6s²’.]

Question B.
Ionization enthalpy of Li is 520 kJ mol^-1 while that of F is 1681 kJ mol^-1. Explain.
Answer:

Both Li and F belong to period 2.
Across a period, the screening effect is the same while the effective nuclear charge increases.
As a result, the outer electron is held more tightly and therefore, the ionization enthalpy increases across a period.
Hence, F will have higher ionization enthalpy than Li.

Thus, ionization enthalpy of Li is 520 kJ mol^-1 while that of F is 1681 kJ mol^-1.

Question C.
Explain the screening effect with a suitable example.
Answer:
i. In a multi-electron atom, the electrons in the inner shells tend to prevent the attractive influence of the nucleus from reaching the outermost electron.
ii. Thus, they act as a screen or shield between the nuclear attraction and outermost or valence electrons. This effect of the inner electrons on the outer electrons is known as screening effect or shielding effect.
iii. Across a period, screening effect due to inner electrons remains the same as electrons are added to the same shell.
iv. Down the group, screening effect due to inner electrons increases as a new valence shell is added.
e.g. Potassium (19K) has electronic configuration 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹.
K has 4 shells and thus, the valence shell electrons are effectively shielded by the electrons present in the inner three shells. As a result of this, valence shell electron (4s¹) in K experiences much less effective nuclear charge and can be easily removed.

Question D.
Why the second ionization enthalpy is greater than the first ionization enthalpy ?
Answer:
The second ionization enthalpy (Δ_iH₂) is greater than the first ionization enthalpy (Δ_iH₁) as it involves removal of electron from the positively charged species.

Question E.
Why the elements belonging to the same group do have similar chemical properties ?
Answer:

Chemical properties of elements depend upon their valency.
Elements belonging to the same group have the same valency.

Hence, the elements belonging to the same group show similar chemical properties.

Question F.
Explain : electronegativity and electron gain enthalpy. Which of the two can be measured experimentally?
Answer:
i. The ability of a covalently bonded atom to attract the shared electrons toward itself is called electronegativity (EN). Electronegativity cannot be measured experimentally. However, various numerical scales to express electronegativity were developed by many scientists. Pauling scale of electronegativity is the one used most widely.

ii. Electron gain enthalpy is a quantitative measure of the ease with which an atom adds an electron forming the anion and is expressed in kJ mol^-1. Thus, it is an experimentally measurable quantity.

5. Answer the following questions

Question A.
The electronic configuration of some elements are given below:
a. 1s²
b. 1s²2s²2p⁶
In which group and period of the periodic table they are placed ?
Answer:
a. 1s²
Here n = 1. Therefore, the element belongs to the 1st period.
The outer electronic configuration 1s² corresponds to the maximum capacity of 1s, the complete duplet. Therefore, the element is placed at the end of the 1st period in the group 18 of inert gases in the modem periodic table,

b. 1s²2s²2p⁶
Here n = 2. Therefore, the element belongs to the 2nd period.
The outer electronic configuration 2s²2p⁶ corresponds to complete octet. Therefore, the element is placed in the 2nd period of group 18 in the modem periodic table.

Answer:
Sulfur should have smaller ionization energy than oxygen.
a. Lithium has electronic configuration 1s²2s¹ while that of beryllium is 1s²2s².
b. Li can achieve a noble gas configuration by losing one electron while Be can do so by losing two electrons. Hence, lithium forms +1 ions while beryllium forms +2 ions.

Question E.
Define : a. Ionic radius
b. Electronegativity
Answer:
a. Ionic radius: Ionic radius is defined as the distance of valence shell of electrons from the centre of the nucleus in an ion.

b. Electronegativity: The ability of a covalently bonded atom to attract the shared electrons toward itself is called electronegativity (EN).

Question F.
Compare chemical properties of metals and non-metals.
Answer:
i. Metals (like alkali metals) react vigorously with oxygen to form oxides which reacts with water to form strong bases.
e. g. Sodium (Na) reacts with oxygen to form Na₂O which produces NaOH on reaction with water.

ii. Nonmetals (like halogens) react with oxygen to form oxides which on reaction with water form strong acids.
e.g. Chlorine reacts with oxygen to form Cl₂O₇ which produces HClO₄ on reaction with water.

Question G.
What are the valence electrons ? For s-block and p-block elements show that number of valence electrons is equal to its group number.
Answer:

Electrons present in the outermost shell of the atom of an element are called valence electrons.
3Li is an s-block element and its electronic configuration is 1s²2s¹. Since it has one valence electron, it is placed in group 1.
Therefore, for s-block elements, group number = number of valence electrons.
However, for p-block elements, group number = 18 – number of electrons required to attain complete octet.
7N is a p-block element and its electronic configuration is 1s²2s²2p³. Since it has five electrons in its valence shell, it is short of three electrons to complete its octet.
Therefore, its group number = 18 – 3 = 15.

Question H.
Define ionization enthalpy. Name the factors on which ionisation enthalpy depends? How does it vary down the group and across a period?
Answer:
i. The energy required to remove an electron from the isolated gaseous atom in its ground state is called ionization enthalpy (Δ_iH).
Ionization enthalpy is the quantitative measure of tendency of an element to lose electron and expressed in kJ mol^-1.

ii. Ionization energy depends on the following factors

Size (radius) of an atom
Nuclear charge
The shielding or screening effect of inner electrons
Nature of electronic configuration

iii. Variation of ionization energy down the group: On moving down the group, the ionization enthalpy decreases. This is because electron is to be removed from the larger valence shell. Screening due to core electrons goes on increasing and the effective nuclear charge decreases down the group. As a result, the removal of the outer electron becomes easier down the group.

iv. Variation of ionization energy across a period: The screening effect is the same while the effective nuclear charge increases across a period. As a result, the outer electron is held more tightly and hence, the ionization enthalpy increases across a period. Therefore, the alkali metal shows the lowest first ionization enthalpy while the inert gas shows the highest first ionization enthalpy across a period.

Note: First ionization enthalpy values of elements of group 1.

Note: First ionization enthalpy values of elements of period 2.

Question I.
How the atomic size vary in a group and across a period? Explain with suitable example.
Answer:
i. Variation in atomic size down the group:
a. As we move down the group from top to bottom in the periodic table, the atomic size increases with the increase in atomic number.
b. This is because, as the atomic number increases, nuclear charge increases but simultaneously the number of shells in the atoms also increases.
c. Asa result, the effective nuclear charge decreases due to increase in the size of the atom and shielding effect increases down the group. Thus, the valence electrons experience less attractive force from nucleus and are held less tightly.
d. Hence, the atomic size increases in a group from top to bottom.

e. g.

In group 1, as we move from top to bottom i.e., from Li to Cs, a new shell gets added in the atom of the elements and the electrons are added in this new shell.
As a result of this, the effective nuclear charge goes on decreasing and screening effect goes on increasing down a group.
Therefore, the atomic size is the largest for Cs and is the smallest for Li in group 1.

[Note: Atomic radii of Li and Cs are 152 pm and 262 pm respectively.]

ii. Variation in atomic size across a period:
a. As we move across a period from left to right in the periodic table, the atomic size of an element decreases with the increase in atomic number.
b. This is because, as the atomic number increases, nuclear charge increases gradually but addition of electrons takes place in the same shell.
c. Therefore, as we move across a period, the effective nuclear charge increases but screening effect caused by the core electrons remains the same.
d. As a result of this, attraction between the nucleus and the valence electrons increases. Therefore, valence electrons are more tightly bound and hence, the atomic radius goes on decreasing along a period resulting in decrease in atomic size.

e. g.

In the second period, as we move from left towards right i.e., from Li to F, the electrons are added in the second shell of all the elements in second period (except noble gas Ne).
As a result of this, the effective nuclear charge goes on increasing from Li to F, however, screening effect remains the same.
Therefore, the atomic size is the largest for Li (alkali metal) and is the smallest for F (halogen).

[Note: Atomic radii of Li and F are 152 pm and 64 pm respectively.]

Question J.
Give reasons.
a. Alkali metals have low ionization energies.
b. Inert gases have exceptionally high ionization energies.
c. Fluorine has less electron affinity than chlorine.
d. Noble gases possess relatively large atomic size.
Answer:
a. i. Across a period, the screening effect is the same while the effective nuclear charge increases.
ii. As a result, the outer electron is held more tightly and hence, the ionization enthalpy increases across a period.
iii. Since the alkali metals are present in the group 1 of the modem periodic table, they have low ionization energies.

b. i. Across a period, the screening effect is the same and the effective nuclear charge increases.
ii. As a result, the outer electron is held more tightly and hence, the ionization enthalpy increases across a period.
iii. Inert gases are present on the extreme right of the periodic table i.e., in group 18. Also, inert gases have stable electronic configurations i.e., complete octet or duplet. Due to this, they are extremely stable and it is very difficult to remove electrons from their valence shell.
Hence, inert gases have exceptionally high ionization potential.

c. The less electron affinity of fluorine is due to its smaller size. Adding an electron to the 2p orbital in fluorine leads to a greater repulsion than adding an electron to the larger 3p orbital of chlorine.
Hence, fluorine has less electron affinity than chlorine.

d. i. Noble gases have completely filled valence shell i.e., complete octet (except He with complete duplet).
ii. Since their valence shell contains eight electrons, they experience greater electronic repulsion and this results in increased atomic size (atomic radii) of the noble gas elements.
Hence, noble gases possess

Question K.
Consider the oxides Li₂O, CO₂, B₂O₃.
a. Which oxide would you expect to be the most basic?
b. Which oxide would be the most acidic?
c. Give the formula of an amphoteric oxide.
Answer:
a. Li₂O is the most basic oxide.
b. CO₂ is the most acidic oxide.
c. Formula of an amphoteric oxide: Al₂O₃.
[Note: Both B₂O₃ and CO₂ are acidic oxides. But CO₂ is more acidic oxide as compared to B₂O₃. Hence, CO₂ is most acidic oxide amongst the given.]

Question H.
State and explain the law of conservation of mass.
Answer:
Law of conservation of mass:

The law of conservation of mass states that, “Mass can neither be created nor destroyed” during chemical combination of matter.
Antoine Lavoisier who is often referred to as the father of modem chemistry performed careful experimental studies for various combustion reactions, namely burning of phosphorus and mercury in the presence of air.
Both his experiments resulted in increased weight of products.
After several experiments, in burning of phosphorus, he found that the weight gained by the phosphoms was exactly the same as the weight lost by the air. Hence, total mass of reactants = total mass of products.
When hydrogen gas bums and combines with oxygen to form water, the mass of the water formed is equal to the mass of the hydrogen and oxygen consumed. Thus, this is in accordance with the law of conservation of mass.

Question F.
Arjun purchased 250 g of glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) for Rs 40. Find the cost of glucose per mole.
Answer:
Given: Mass of urea = 250 g, cost for 250 g glucose = Rs 40, molecular formula of glucose = C₆H₁₂O₆
To find: Cost per mole of glucose
Calculation: Molecular formula of glucose is (C₆H₁₂O₆).
Molecular mass of glucose
= (6 × Average atomic mass of C) + (12 × Average atomic mass of H) + (6 × Average atomic mass of O)
= (6 × 12 u) + (12 × 1 u) + (6 × 16 u)
=180 u
∴ Molar mass of glucose = 180 g mol^-1

Now,
\(\frac {250}{180}\) mol of glucose cost = Rs 40
1 mol glucose cost = x
∴ x = \(\frac{40 \times 180}{250}\) = Rs 28.8/mol of glucose
Ans. The cost of glucose per mole is Rs 28.8.

[ Calculation using log table:
\(\frac{40 \times 180}{250}\)
= Antilog₁₀ [log₁₀(40) + log₁₀(180) + log₁₀(250)]
= Antilog₁₀[1.6021 + 2.2553 – 2.3979]
= Antilog₁₀[1.4595] = 28.80 ]

2.0 g of a metal burnt in oxygen gave 3.2 g of its oxide. 1.42 g of the same metal heated in steam gave 2.27 of its oxide. Which law is verified by these data ?
Answer:
Here, metal oxide is obtained by two different methods; reactions of metal with oxygen and reaction of metal with water vapour (steam).
In first reaction (reaction with oxygen),
The mass of oxygen in metal oxide = 3.2 – 2.0 = 1.2 g
% of oxygen = \(\frac{1.2}{3.2}\) × 100 = 37.5%
% of metal = \(\frac{2.0}{3.2}\) × 100 = 62.5%
In second reaction (reaction with steam),
The mass of oxygen in metal oxide = 2.27 – 1.42 = 0.85 g
% of oxygen = \(\frac{0.85}{2.27}\) × 100 = 37.44 ≈ 37.5%
% of metal = \(\frac{1.42}{2.27}\) × 100 = 62.56 ≈ 62.5%
Therefore, irrespective of the source, the given compound contains same elements in the same proportion. The law of definite proportions states that “A given compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by weight”. Hence, the law of definite proportions is verified by these data.
Ans: The law of definite proportions is verified by given data.

Number of atoms = Number of moles × Avogadro’s constant
Now, 1 molecule of urea has total 8 atoms, out of which 4 atoms are of H, 2 atoms are of N, 1 of C and 1 of O.
∴ Number of H atoms in 5.6 g of urea = (4 × 0.0933) mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol
= 2.247 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen
∴ Number of N atoms in 5.6 g of urea = (2 × 0.0933) mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol
= 1.124 × 10²³ atoms of nitrogen
∴ Number of C atoms in 5.6 g of urea = (1 × 0.0933) mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol
= 0.562 × 10²³ atoms of carbon
∴ Number of O atoms in 5.6 g of urea = (1 × 0.0933) mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol
= 0.562 × 10²³ atoms of oxygen
Ans: 5.6 g of urea contain 2.247 × 10²³ atoms of H, 1.124 × 10²³ atoms of N, 0.562 × 10²³ atoms of C and 0.562 × 10²³ atoms of O.

5. Explain

Question A.
The need of the term average atomic mass.
Answer:

Several naturally occurring elements exist as a mixture of two or more isotopes.
Isotopes have different atomic masses.
The atomic mass of such an element is the average of atomic masses of its isotopes.
For this purpose, the atomic masses of isotopes and their relative percentage abundances are considered.

Hence, the term average atomic mass is needed to express atomic mass of elements containing mixture of two or more isotopes.

Question B.
Molar mass.
Answer:
i. The mass of one mole of a substance (element/compound) in grams is called its molar mass.
ii. The molar mass of any element in grams is numerically equal to atomic mass of that element in u.
e.g.

Element	Atomic mass (u)	Molar mass (g mol^-1)
H	1.0	1 0
C	12.0	12.0
O	16.0	16.0

iii. Similarly, molar mass of polyatomic molecule, in grams is numerically equal to its molecular mass or formula mass in u.
e.g.

Polyatomic substance	Molecular/formula mass (u)	Molar mass (g mol^-1)
O₂	32.0	32.0
H₂O	18.0	18.0
NaCl	58.5	58.5

Question C.
Mole concept.
Answer:

Even a small amount of any substance contains very large number of atoms or molecules. Therefore, a quantitative adjective ‘mole’ is used to express the large number of sub-microscopic entities like atoms, molecules, ions, electrons, etc. present in a substance.
Thus, one mole is the amount of a substance that contains as many entities or particles as there are atoms in exactly 12 g (or 0.012 kg) of the carbon -12 isotope.
One mole is the amount of substance which contains 6.0221367 × 10²³ particles/entities.

Question D.
Formula mass with an example.
Answer:

The formula mass of a substance is the sum of atomic masses of the atoms present in the formula.
In substances such as sodium chloride, positive (sodium), and negative (chloride) entities are arranged in a three-dimensional structure in a way that one sodium (Na⁺) ion is surrounded by six chlorides (Cl^–) ions, all at the same distance from it and vice versa. Thus, sodium chloride does not contain discrete molecules as the constituent units.
Therefore, NaCl is just the formula that is used to represent sodium chloride though it is not a molecule.
In such compounds, the formula (i.e., NaCl) is used to calculate the formula mass instead of molecular mass.

e.g. Formula mass of sodium chloride = atomic mass of sodium + atomic mass of chlorine
= 23.0 u + 35.5 u = 58.5 u

Question E.
Molar volume of gas.
Answer:
i. It is more convenient to measure the volume rather than mass of the gas.
ii. It is found from Avogadro law that one mole of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4 dm³ at standard temperature (0 °C) and pressure (1 atm) (STP).
iii. The volume of 22.4 dm³ at STP is known as molar volume of a gas.
iv. The relationship between number of moles and molar volume can be expressed as follows:

[Note: IUPAC has recently changed the standard pressure to 1 bar. Under these new STP conditions the molar volume of a gas is 22.71 L mol^-1]

Question F.
Types of matter (on the basis of chemical composition).
Answer:
Matter on the basis of chemical composition can be classified as follows:
i. Pure substances: They always have a definite chemical composition. They always have the same properties regardless of their origin.
e.g. Pure metal, distilled water, etc.

They are of two types:
a. Elements: They are pure substances, which cannot be broken down into simpler substances by ordinary chemical changes.
Elements are further classified into three types:
1. Metals:

They have a lustre (a shiny appearance).
They conduct heat and electricity.
They can be drawn into wire (ductile).
They can be hammered into thin sheets (malleable).
e.g. Gold, silver, copper, iron. Mercury is a liquid metal at room temperature.

2. Nonmetals:

They have no lustre, (except diamond, iodine)
They are poor conductors of heat and electricity, (except graphite)
They cannot be hammered into sheets or drawn into wire, because they are brittle. e.g. Iodine

3. Metalloids: Some elements have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals and are called metalloids or semimetals.
e.g. Arsenic, silicon and germanium.
b. Compounds: They are the pure substances which are made up of two or more elements in fixed proportion.
e.g. Water, ammonia, methane, etc.

ii. Mixtures: They have no definite chemical composition and hence no definite properties. They can be separated by physical methods.
e.g. Paint (mixture of oils, pigment, additive), concrete (a mixture of sand, cement, water), etc.

Mixtures are of two types:

Homogeneous mixture: In homogeneous mixture, constituents remain uniformly mixed throughout its bulk.
e.g. Solution, in which solute and solvent molecules are uniformly mixed throughout its bulk.
Heterogeneous mixture: In heterogeneous mixture, constituents are not uniformly mixed throughout its bulk.
e.g. Suspension, which contains insoluble solid in a liquid.

Answer:
Solid (crude/impure) organic compounds can be purified by crystallization.

Question B.
What do you understand by the terms
a. residue
b. filtrate.
Answer:
a. Residue: In the process of filtration, the insoluble (undissolved) impurities which remain on the filter paper are called residue.

b. Filtrate: In the process of filtration, the liquid which pass through the filter paper and collected in the beaker is called filtrate.

Question C.
Why is a condenser used in distillation process?
Answer:
In the process of distillation, a liquid is converted into its vapour and the vapour is then condensed back to liquid on cooling. The condenser has a jacket with two outlets through which water is circulated. Hence, to provide efficient cooling, a condenser is used.

Question D.
Why is paper moistened before filtration?
Answer:
Before filtration, filter paper is moistened with appropriate solvent to ensure that it sticks to the funnel and does not let the air to pass through the leaks.

Question E.
What is the stationary phase in Paper Chromatography?
Answer:
Paper chromatography is a type of partition chromatography in which a special quality paper, namely Whatman paper 1 is used. The water trapped in the fibres of the paper acts as stationary phase.

Question F.
What will happen if the upper outlet of the condenser is connected to the tap instead of the lower outlet?
Answer:

If water enters through upper outlet of condenser, the water will quickly flow down under the influence of gravity. This allows only a small section of the condenser to be cooled enough.
If water enters through lower outlet of condenser, the entire condenser will be filled with water before it leaves out providing maximum cooling to the condenser. This results in maximum recovery of purified liquid.

Hence, water must be allowed to enter through lower outlet of condenser during distillation process.

Question G.
Give names of two materials used as stationary phase in chromatography.
Answer:

Alumina
Silica gel

Question H.
Which properties of solvents are useful for solvent extraction?
Answer:

Organic compound must be more soluble in the organic solvent, than in water.
Solvent should be immiscible with water and be able to form two distinct layers.

Question I.
Why should spotting of mixture be done above the level of mobile phase ?
Answer:

If spotting of a mixture is done at the level of mobile phase, then solvent will come in contact with the sample spot.
Sample spot will dissolve in the mobile phase and its components will move all over the plate resulting in no distinct separation.

Hence, spotting of mixture should be done above the level of mobile phase.

Question J.
Define : a. Stationary phase b. Saturated solution
Answer:
a. Stationary phase:
Stationary phase is a solid or a liquid supported on a solid which remains fixed in a place and on which different solutes are adsorbed to a different extent.

Solvent should not react chemically with the compound to be purified.
Solvent should be volatile so that it can be removed easily.

Question N.
Name the different types of Chromatography and explain the principles underlying them.
Answer:
Depending on the nature of the stationary phase i.e., whether it is a solid or a liquid, chromatography is classified into adsorption chromatography and partition chromatography.
i. Adsorption chromatography: This technique is based on the principle of differential adsorption. Different solutes are adsorbed on an adsorbent to different extent.

Adsorption chromatography is further classified into two types:

Column chromatography
Thin-layer chromatography

ii. Partition chromatography: This technique is based on continuous differential partitioning of components of a mixture between stationary and mobile phases. For example, paper chromatography

Question O.
Why do we see bands separating in column chromatography?
Answer:

In column chromatography, the solutes get adsorbed on the stationary phase and depending on the degree to which they are adsorbed, they get separated from each other.
The component which is readily adsorbed are retained on the column and others move down the column to various distances forming distinct bands.

Hence, we see bands separating in column chromatography.

Question P.
How do you visualize colourless compounds after separation in TLC and Paper Chromatography?
Answer:
i. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC): If components are colourless but have the property of fluorescence then they can be visualized under UV light, or the plate can be kept in a chamber containing a few iodine crystals. The iodine vapours are adsorbed by the components and the spots appear brown. Also, spraying agent like ninhydrin can also be used (for amino acids).

ii. Paper Chromatography: The spots of the separated colourless components may be observed either under ultra-violet light or by the use of an appropriate spraying agent.

Question Q.
Compare TLC and Paper Chromatography techniques.
Answer:

Chromatography technique	TLC	Paper chromatography
Principle	It is based on the principle of differential adsorption. Different solutes are adsorbed on an adsorbent to different extent.	It is based on continuous differential partitioning of components of a mixture between stationary and mobile phases.
Stationary phase	Solid (adsorbent like silica gel or alumina over a glass plate)	Liquid (water trapped in the fibres of a Paper)
Mobile phase	Liquid (single solvent/mixture of solvents)	Liquid (single solvent/mixture of solvents)
Visualization of components of a mixture	Similar to TLC the coloured components are visible as coloured spots and the colourless components are observed under UV light or using a spraying agent.

3. Label the diagram and explain the process in your words.

Answer:
When filtration is carried out using a vacuum pump it is called filtration under suction. It is a faster and more efficient technique than simple filtration. The diagram is as follows:

ii. Procedure:

The assembly for filtration under suction consists of a thick wall conical flask with a sidearm (Buchner flask).
The flask is connected to a safety bottle by rubber tube through the side arm.
Buchner funnel (a special porcelain funnel with a porous circular bottom) is fitted on the conical flask with the help of a rubber cork.
A circular filter paper of correct size is placed on the circular porous bottom of the Buchner funnel and the funnel is placed on the flask.
Filter paper is moistened with a few drops of water or solvent.
Suction is created by starting the pump and filtration is carried out.

iii. Crystals are collected on the filter paper and filtrate in the flask.

Practical/Project:

Question 1.
Study different animals in kingdom Animalia and prepare the chart with detail scientific information.
Answer:
Phylum Porifera (Pori = Pores: feron = bearing): Members of the phylum Porifera are also called sponges. Characteristic features of the phylum:

Habitat: They are aquatic, mostly marine but few species are found in fresh water.
Forms: They are sedentary animals (attached to substratum or rock).
Body shape: They have asymmetrical body. Body of these animals consists of many cells with minimal
division of labour among cells. Hence, their body is considered as a colony of different types of cells.
Body surface: Their body bears minute pores called ‘ostia’ through which water enters the spongocoel (body cavity). Water leaves the body through a large opening called ‘osculum’. Beating of flagella creates water current.
Circulation: Water is circulated in the body through the ‘canal system’. When the water enters the body of poriferans, cells absorb the food, exchange respiratory gases and release excretory products.
Digestive system: The body cavity of sponges (spongocoel) is lined by unique type of flagellated cells called choanocytes or collar cells for digestion.
Endoskeleton: The body of sponges consists of calcareous / siliceous spicules and proteinaceous ‘spongin fibres’.
Reproduction: Sponges reproduce asexually as well as sexually. Asexual reproduction takes place by fragmentation and gemmule formation. Sexual reproduction is by formation of gametes. Fertilization is internal and development is indirect through larval stage.
Sponges have great power of regeneration.
e.g. Scypha, Euspongia (Bath sponge), Euplectella (Venus’ flower basket).

Characteristics of members belonging to phylum Cnidaria:

Habitat: They are aquatic, mostly marine and few of them are fresh – water forms.
Forms: They are sessile or free swimming.
Cnidoblasts: Presence of cnidoblasts or stinging cells are present on the tentacles for anchorage, offence and defence.
Body Symmetry: They have radially symmetrical body.
Germ layer: They are diploblastic.
Body cavity: Cnidarians have a central cavity called coelenteron or gastrovascular cavity, which helps in digestion and circulation. They have blind-sac body plan i.e., single pore opening to the exterior in the digestive system.
Body form: Members of this phylum exhibit two body forms. The cylindrical form, known as polyp e.g. Hydra and the umbrella – like form (.Aurelia – jelly fish) is known as medusa.
Digestion: They have extracellular and intracellular digestion.
Reproduction: Cnidarians reproduce asexually and sexually.

Asexual reproduction takes place by budding and regeneration. Sexual reproduction takes place gamete formation. They exhibit metagenesis i.e. alternation of polypoid generation with medusoid generation. Polyps produce medusae asexually and medusae produce polyps sexually, e.g. Obelia
e.g. Hydra, Aurelia (Jellyfish), Physalia (Portuguese man-of-war), Adamsia (Sea anemone), Diploria (Brain coral), Gorgonia (sea fan).

The members of this phylum are commonly known as comb jellies and sea walnuts. They are also known as acnidarians as they lack cnidoblasts. The phylum is considered as one of the minor phyla as it is represented by very few members.

Salient features of phylum Ctenophora:

Habitat: They are exclusively marine.
Forms: They are free swimming animals.
Germ layers: Members of this phylum are diploblastic.
Body Symmetry: They are radially symmetrical.
Body plan: The animals of this phylum show blind-sac body plan.
Body organization: They show tissue level organization.
Locomotion: It is earned out by eight rows of ciliated comb plates.
Bioluminescence: It is the characteristic feature of the members of this phylum.
Digestion: It is extracellular and intracellular.
Reproduction: Reproduction is sexual with indirect development.
Colloblasts: These sticky cells are used to capture prey, e.g. Pleurobrachia, Ctenoplana

Discuss the criteria of classification.
Answer:
1. The given diagrams represents the number of germ layers and body symmetry used as criteria for animal classification.
2. Number of germ layers:
(a) When an organism shows only two germ layers, they are called diploblastic animals. In this case, the outer ectoderm is separated from the inner endoderm by a non-living substance called mesoglea.
(b) When an organism shows three germinal layers, they are called triploblastic animals. The three layers are namely – outer ectoderm, middle mesoderm and inner endoderm.
3. Body symmetry:
Body symmetry implies to the similarity in shape, size and number of parts on the opposite sides of a median line when body is divided into two halves by an imaginary line along different plane. Animals may be asymmetrical, radially symmetrical or bilaterally symmetrical.
(a) Asymmetrical animals:
An animal is said to be asymmetrical when its body cannot be divided into two identical halves in any plane.
(b) Radially symmetrical animals:
In certain animals, body can be cut or divided into two similar halves in a number of planes wherein, all the cuts (planes) pass through the centre. This type of symmetry is called radial symmetry.
(c) Bilaterally symmetrical animals:
In this type, the body of the animal can be bisected or divided in two equal or identical halves by a single median or vertical plane.

(i) Why is phylum Arthropoda considered as most successful phylum?
Answer:
Phylum Arthropoda is considered as most successful phylum because of the following reasons:
a. Phylum Arthropoda is the largest phylum of kingdom Animalia. It includes various forms like lobsters, prawns, crabs, insects, millipedes, locust, honeybees, etc.
b. They are omnipresent (present everywhere). Arthropods show great variety of adaptations as their habitat varies from terrestrial to aquatic habitat.
c. Several others factors also contribute to the success of the phylum which includes:
1. The exoskeleton of arthropods is made up of tough chitinous exoskeleton. This enables them to survive on lands in almost all environment and is a great defense against predators.
2. They possess jointed appendages which allow complex movements.
3. They exhibit moulting or eedysis.
4. They have metamerically segmented body helping in movement around diverse environments.

(ii) What do we mean by parthenogenesis?
Answer:
Development of an egg into a complete individual without fertilization is known parthenogenesis. It is found in many non-vertebrates such as bees, rotifers and even some lizards and birds (turkey).

(iii) What do we mean by living fossil?
Answer:
A member of a living animal or plant species that is almost identical to species known from the fossil record (not the recent fossil record), i.e. they have changed very little over a long period.
[Source:https://www. encyclopedia, com/earth-and-environment/ecology-and- environmentalism/environmental-studies/living-fossil]

(iv) How the bees produce honey?
Answer:
a. Bees produce honey using the nectar of flowering plants. A bee sucks the nectar and stores it in a honey sac until it returns to the hive.
b. The nectar is then transferred to worker bees in the hive who suck the nectar from the honey sac through their proboscis. This nectar contains 70% water and 20% honey. Honeybees get rid of excess water by swallowing and regurgitating the nectar again and again. They also fan their wings over filled cells of honeycomb.

When most of the water has evaporated from the honeycomb, the bee seals the comb with a secretion of liquid from its abdomen which eventually hardens into beeswax. This is how the honey bees use nectar to produce a thick, sticky and sweet honey.

(v) What will happen if arthropods do not moult?
Answer:
a. Moulting or eedysis is a periodic shedding of the outer cuticle layer of body in arthropods.
b. The outer layer of body of arthropods is formed of tough, non-living chitinous substance.
c. If arthropods do not moult, they cannot grow and mature into adult forms

Give salient features of phylum Echinodermata.
Answer:
Salient features of phylum Echinodermata (Echinus – spines, derma – skin)

Habitat: These are exclusively marine.
Forms: Members of this phylum are solitary, sedentary or free-living and gregarious, benthic.
Body symmetry: These animals are radially symmetrical with pentamerous symmetry.
Shape: Members of Echinodermata are spherical, elongated or star-shaped.
Body: The endoskeleton is made up of calcareous ossicles. Spines are formed on the body. Hence, they are known as echinoderms. The body has two sides oral and aboral and lacks definite divisions. Mouth is ventrally present on oral surface and anus on aboral surface.
Water vascular system: Presence of water vascular system is the peculiar character of echinoderms. The madrepOrite is the opening of water vascular system through which water enters. Water vascular system is useful in locomotion, food capturing, respiration.
Digestion: Digestive system is complete.
Respiration: Peristomial gills, papillae, respiratory tree, etc. are used for respiration.
Circulatory and excretory systems: Absent in echinoderms.
Nervous system: Nervous system is simple with a nerve ring around the mouth and radial nerves in arms.
Reproduction and development: Sexes are separate (sometimes bisexual). Fertilization is external.
Development is indirect, i.e. through larval stages. They show high power of regeneration.

e.g. Sea lily (Antedon), Sea star (Asterias), Sea cucumber (Cucumaria), Brittle star (Ophiothrix), Sea urchin (Echinus).

2. They perform cutaneous respiration (i. e. gaseous exchange across the skin or outer integument.) under water and when on land, they respire through lungs.
Thus, to facilitate cutaneous respiration, amphibians do not have exoskeleton.

Why are amphibians and reptilians called poikilotherms?
Answer:
Amphibians and reptilians are called poikilotherms as they cannot maintain a constant body temperature. Their body temperature changes according to the change in surrounding temperature.

Give adaptations in Aves for flying.
Answer:

In birds, the forelimbs are modified into wings for flying.
They possess stream-lined body to reduce resistance during flight.
Bones are hollow or pneumatic to reduce body weight.
In order to reduce body weight, urinary bladder is absent. Also, females possess only left ovary and oviduct.
Body is covered by feathers to facilitate flying.

(i) Aves and mammals are homeotherms. Give reason.
Answer:
a. Aves and mammals can generate heat to maintain their body temperature.
b. They keep their body temperature constant, irrespective of fluctuations in environmental temperature. Thus, Aves and mammals are homeotherms.

(ii) How mammals differ from other groups of animals?
Answer:
Features of class Mammalia (mammae: breasts, nipple):

Special feature: Presence of mammary glands (milk-producing glands) for the nourishment of young ones. Mammary glands are modified sweat glands.
Habitat: Mammals are omnipresent (present everywhere). These are mostly terrestrial, some are aquatic and few are aerial and arboreal (living on trees).
Locomotion: Limbs are the organs of locomotion and are modified for walking, climbing, burrowing, swimming, etc.
Body division: Body is differentiated into head, neck, trunk and tail. They have external ear (pinna).
Body temperature: Mammals are homeotherms or warm-blooded animals.
Exoskeleton: It is in the form of hair, fur, nails, hooves, horns, etc.
Skin: Skin is glandular and has sweat glands and sebaceous (oil) glands.
Mouth cavity: Mammals show heterodont dentition (various types of teeth like incisors, canines, premolars and molars).
Circulation: Heart is ventral in position, four chambered with two auricles and two ventricles. RBCs are biconcave and enucleated (except camel). Blood is red in colour.
Respiration: Respiration takes place by lungs.
Nervous system: Brain is highly developed. Cerebrum shows a transverse band called corpus callosum.
Reproduction and development: Only few mammals are oviparous, e.g. Duck billed platypus. Some have pouches for development of immature young ones. These are called marsupials, e.g. Kangaroo. Most of the mammals are placental and viviparous.
