Solution:
Maharashtra Board 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Trigonometry - II Ex 3.1 9

ix. tan 8θ – tan 5θ – tan 3θ = tan 8θ tan 5θ tan 3θ
Solution:
Since, 8θ = 5θ + 3θ
∴ tan 8θ = tan (5θ + 3θ)
∴ tan 8θ = \(\frac{\tan 5 \theta+\tan 3 \theta}{1-\tan 5 \theta \tan 3 \theta}\)
∴ tan 8θ (1 – tan 5θ.tan 3θ) = tan 5θ + tan 3θ
∴ tan 8θ – tan8θ.tan5θ.tan3θ = tan5θ + tan 3θ
∴ tan 8θ – tan 5θ – tan 3θ = tan 8θ.tan 5θ.tan 3θ

x. tan 50° = tan 40° + 2tan 10°
Solution:
Since, 50° = 10° +40°
∴ tan 50° = tan (10° + 40°)
∴ \(\frac{\tan 10^{\circ}+\tan 40^{\circ}}{1-\tan 10^{\circ} \tan 40^{\circ}}\)
∴ tan 50° (1 – tan 10° tan 40°) = tan 10° + tan 40°
∴ tan 50° – tan 10° tan 40° tan 50° = tan 10° + tan 40°
∴ tan 50° – tan 10° tan 40° tan (90° – 40°) = tan 10° + tan 40°
∴ tan 50° – tan 10° tan 40° cot 40°
= tan 10° + tan 40° …[∵ tan (90° – θ) = cot θ]
∴ tan 50° – tan 10° tan 40°. \(\frac{1}{\tan 40^{\circ}}\) = tan 10° + tan 40°
∴ tan 50° – tan 10°. 1 = tan 10° + tan 40°
∴ tan 50° = tan 40° + 2 tan 10°

xi. \(\frac{\cos 27^{\circ}+\sin 27^{\circ}}{\cos 27^{\circ}-\sin 27^{\circ}}\) = tan 72°
Solution:
\(\frac{\cos 27^{\circ}+\sin 27^{\circ}}{\cos 27^{\circ}-\sin 27^{\circ}}\)
Dividing numerator and cos 27°, we get denominator by cos 27°, we get
Maharashtra Board 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Trigonometry - II Ex 3.1 10
= tan (45° + 27°)
= tan 72° = R.H.S

xii. \(\frac{\cos 27^{\circ}+\sin 27^{\circ}}{\cos 27^{\circ}-\sin 27^{\circ}}=\tan 72^{\circ}\)
Solution:
Since 45° = 10° + 35°,
tan 45° = tan (10° +35°)
∴ \(\frac{\tan 10^{\circ}+\tan 35^{\circ}}{1-\tan 10^{\circ} \tan 35^{\circ}}\)
∴ 1 – tan 10° tan 35o = tan 10° + tan 35°
∴ tan 10° + tan 35° + tan 10° tan 35° = 1

xiii. tan 10° + tan 35° + tan 10°. tan 35° = 1

Solution:
Dividing numerator and cos 15°, we get
Maharashtra Board 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Trigonometry - II Ex 3.1 12
= tan (45° + 15°)
= tan 30° = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\) = R.H.S

Question 3.
If sin A = \(-\frac{5}{13}\),π < A < \(\frac{3 \pi}{2}\) and cos B = \(\frac{3}{5}, \frac{3 \pi}{2}\) < B < 2π, find
i. sin (A+B)
ii. cos (A-B)
iii. tan (A + B)
Solution:
Given, sin A = \(-\frac{5}{13}\)
We know that,
cos2 A = 1 – sin2A = \(1-\left(-\frac{5}{13}\right)^{2}=1-\frac{25}{169}=\frac{144}{169}\)
∴ cos A = \(\pm \frac{12}{13}\)
Since, π < A < \(\frac{3 \pi}{2}\)
∴ ‘A’ lies in the 3rd quadrant.
∴ cos A<0
cos A = \(\frac{-12}{13}\)
Also,cos B = \(\frac{3}{5}\)
∴ sin2B = 1 – cos2B = \(1-\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)^{2}=1-\frac{9}{25}=\frac{16}{25}\)
∴ sin B = \(\pm \frac{4}{5}\)
Since, \(\frac{3 \pi}{2}\) < B < 2π
∴ ‘B’ lies in the 4th quadrant.
∴ sin B<0
Sin B = \(\frac{-4}{5}\)

i. sin (A + B) = sin A cos B+cos A sin B
Maharashtra Board 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Trigonometry - II Ex 3.1 13

ii. cos (A -B) = cos A cos B + sin A sin B

Solution:
Given tan A = \(\frac{5}{6}\), tan B = \(\frac{1}{11}\)
Maharashtra Board 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Trigonometry - II Ex 3.1 17
∴ tan (A + B) = tan \(\frac{\pi}{4}\)
∴ A + B = \(\frac{\pi}{4}\)

Question 3.
If α is a root of 25cos2 θ + 5cos θ – 12 = 0, \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) < α < π, then sin 2α is equal to
(A) \(-\frac{24}{25}\)
(B) \(-\frac{13}{18}\)
(C) \(\frac{13}{18}\)
(D) \(\frac{24}{25}\)
Answer:
(A) \(-\frac{24}{25}\)

Explanation:

25 cos2 θ + 5 cos θ – 12 = 0
∴ (5cos θ + 4) (5 cos θ – 3) = 0
∴ cos θ = \(-\frac{4}{5}\) or cos θ = \(\frac{3}{5}\)
Since \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) < α < π,
cos α < 0
∴ cos α = \(-\frac{4}{5}\)
sin2 α = 1 – cos2 α = 1 – \(\frac{16}{25}=\frac{9}{25}\)
∴ sin α = \(\pm \frac{3}{5}\)
Since \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) < α < π sin α > 0
∴ sin α = 3/5
sin 2 α = 2 sin α cos α
= \(2\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)\left(\frac{-4}{5}\right)=-\frac{24}{25}\)

(A) \(\frac{14}{25}\)
(B) \(\frac{20}{21}\)
(C) \(\frac{21}{20}\)
(D) \(\frac{15}{16}\)
Answer:
(B) \(\frac{20}{21}\)

Explanation:
cosec θ + cot θ = \(\frac{5}{2}\) …………….(i)
cosec2 θ – cot2 θ = 1
∴ (cosec θ + cot θ) (cosec θ – cot θ) = 1
∴ \(\frac{5}{2}\) (cosec θ – cot θ) = 1
∴ cosec θ – cot θ = \(\frac{2}{5}\) …(ii)
Subtracting (ii) from (i), we get
2 cot θ = \(\frac{5}{2}-\frac{2}{5}=\frac{21}{10}\)
∴ cot θ = \(\frac{21}{20}\)
∴ tan θ = \(\frac{20}{21}\)

(A) \(\frac{2 q}{1+q^{2}}\)
(B) \(\frac{2 q}{1-q^{2}}\)
(C) \(\frac{1-\mathrm{q}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{q}}\)
(D) \(\frac{1+q^{2}}{2 q}\)
Answer:
(C) \(\frac{1-\mathrm{q}^{2}}{2 \mathrm{q}}\)

Explanation:

cosec θ – cot θ = q ……(i)
cosec2 θ – cot2 θ = 1
∴ (cosec θ + cot θ) (cosec θ – cot θ) = 1
∴ (cosec θ + cot θ)q = 1
∴ cosec θ + cot θ = 1/q …….(ii)
Subtracting (i) from (ii), we get
2cot θ = \(\frac{1}{\mathrm{q}}-\mathrm{q}\)
∴ cot θ = \(\frac{1-q^{2}}{2 q}\)

i. 520° =360° + 160°
∴ 520° and 160° are co-terminal angles.
Since 90° < 160° < 180°,
160° lies in the 2nd quadrant.
∴ 520° lies in the 2nd quadrant,
∴ cosec 520° is positive.

ii. 1899° = 5 x 360° + 99°
∴ 1899° and 99° are co-terminal angles.
Since 90° < 99° < 180°,
99° lies in the 2nd quadrant.
∴ 1899° lies in the 2nd quadrant.
∴ cot 1899° is negative.

iii. 986° = 2x 360° + 266°
∴ 986° and 266° are co-terminal angles.
Since 180° < 266° < 270°,
266° lies in the 3rd quadrant.

Which is greater?
sin (1856°) or sin (2006°)
Solution:
1856° = 5 x 360° + 56°
∴ 1856° and 56° are co-terminal angles.
Since 0° < 56° < 90°, 56° lies in the 1st quadrant.
∴ 1856° lies in the 1st quadrant,
∴ sin 1856° >0 …(i)
2006° = 5 x 360° + 206°
∴ 2006° and 206° are co-terminal angles.
Since 180° < 206° < 270°,
206° lies in the 3rd quadrant.
∴ 2006° lies in the 3rd quadrant,
∴ sin 2006° <0 …(ii)
From (i) and (ii),
sin 1856° is greater.

Question 5.
Which of the following is positive?
sin(-310°) or sin(310°)
Solution:
Since 270° <310° <360°,
310° lies in the 4th quadrant.
∴ sin (310°) < 0
-310° = -360°+ 50°
∴ 50° and – 310° are co-terminal angles.
Since 0° < 50° < 90°, 50° lies in the 1st quadrant.
∴ – 310° lies in the 1st quadrant.
∴ sin (- 310°) > 0
∴ sin (- 310°) is positive.

We know that,
tan2 θ = sec2 θ – 1
= (\(\sqrt{2}\)) – 1
= 2 – 1 = 1
∴ tan θ = ±1
Since \(\frac{3 \pi}{2}\) < θ < 2π
θ lies in the 4th quadrant.

Solution:
Given, 2sin A = 1
∴ sin A = 1/2
we know that,
cos2 A = 1 – sin2 A = 1 – \(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}=1-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}\)
∴ cos A = \(\pm \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)

Solution:
Given, \(\frac{\sin \mathrm{A}}{3}=\frac{\sin \mathrm{B}}{4}=\frac{1}{5}\)
∴ sin A = \(\frac{3}{5}\) and sin B = \(\frac{4}{5}\)
We know that,
cos2 A = 1 – sin2 = 1 – \(\left(\frac{3}{5}\right)^{2}\) = 1 – \(\frac{9}{25}=\frac{16}{25}\)
∴ Cos A = ± \([{4}{5}\)
Since A lies in the second quadrant,
cos A < 0

Sin B = 4/5
We know that,
cos2B = 1 – sin2B = 1 – \(\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^{2}=1-\frac{16}{25}=\frac{9}{25}\)

v. x = 3 – 4tan θ,3y = 5 + 3sec θ

iii. x = 4cos θ – 5 sin θ … (i)
y = 4sin θ + 5cos θ .. .(ii)
Squaring (i) and (ii) and adding, we get
x2 + y2 = (4cos θ – 5sin θ)2 + (4sin θ + 5cos θ)2
= 16cos2θ – 40 sinθ cosθ + 25 sin2θ + 16 sin2 θ + 40sin θ cos θ + 25 cos2 θ
= 16(sin2 θ + cos2 θ) + 25(sin2 θ + cos2 θ)
= 16(1) + 25(1)
= 41

iv. x = 5 + 6cosec θ andy = 3 + 8cot θ
∴ x – 5 = 6cosec θ and y – 3 = 8cot θ
∴ cosec θ = \(\frac{x-5}{6}\) and cot θ = \(\frac{y-3}{8}\)
We know that,
cosec2 θ – cot2 θ = 1
∴ \(\left(\frac{x-5}{6}\right)^{2}-\left(\frac{y-3}{8}\right)^{2}\) = 1

v. 2x = 3 – 4tan θ and 3y = 5 + 3sec θ
∴ 2x – 3 = -4tan θ and 3y – 5 = 3sec θ
∴ tan θ = \(\frac{3-2 x}{4}\) and sec θ = \(\frac{3 y-5}{3}\)θ
We know that, sec2 θ – tan2 θ = 1
∴ \(\left(\frac{3 y-5}{3}\right)^{2}-\left(\frac{3-2 x}{4}\right)^{2}\) = 1

Question 5.
If 2sin2 θ + 3sin θ = 0, find the permissible values of cosθ.
Solution:
2sin2 θ + 3sin θ = 0
∴ sin θ (2sin θ + 3) = 0
∴ sin θ = 0 or sin θ = \(\frac{-3}{2}\)
Since – 1 ≤ sin θ ≤ 1,
sin θ = 0
\(\sqrt{1-\cos ^{2} \theta}\) = 0 …[ ∵ sin2 θ = 1- cos2 θ]
∴ 1 – cos2 θ = 0
∴ cos2 θ = 1
∴ cos θ = ±1 …[∵ – 1 ≤ cos θ ≤ 1]

Question 6.
If 2cos2 θ – 11 cos θ + 5 = 0, then find the possible values of cos θ.
Solution:
2cos2θ – 11 cos θ + 5 = 0
∴ 2cos2 θ – 10 cos θ – cos θ + 5 = 0
∴ 2cos θ(cos θ – 5) – 1 (cos θ – 5) = 0
∴ (cos θ – 5) (2cos θ – 1) = 0
cos θ – 5 = 0 or 2cos θ – 1 = 0
∴ cos θ = 5 or cos θ = 1/2
Since, -1 ≤ cos θ ≤ 1
∴ cos θ = 1/2

Question 7.
Find the acute angle θ such 2cos2 θ = 3sin θ.
Solution:
2cos20 = 3sin θ
∴ 2(1 – sin2 θ) = 3sin θ
∴ 2 – 2sin2 θ = 3sin θ
∴ 2sin2 θ + 3sin 9-2 = θ
∴ 2sin2 θ + 4sin θ – sin θ – 2 = θ
∴ 2sin θ(sin θ + 2) -1 (sin θ + 2) = θ
∴ (sin θ + 2) (2sin θ – 1) = 0
∴ sin θ + 2 = 0 or 2sin θ – 1 = 0
∴ sin θ = -2 or sin θ = 1/2
Since, -1 ≤ sin θ ≤ 1
∴ Sin θ = 1/2
∴ θ = 30° …[ ∵ sin 30 = 1/2]

Question 8.
Find the acute angle 0 such that 5tan2 0 + 3 = 9sec 0.
Solution:
5tan2 θ + 3 = 9sec θ
∴ 5(sec2 θ – 1) + 3 = 9sec θ
∴ 5sec2 θ – 5 + 3 = 9sec θ
∴ 5sec2 θ – 9sec θ – 2 = 0
∴ 5sec2 θ – 10 sec θ + sec θ – 2 = 0
∴ 5sec θ(sec θ – 2) + 1(sec θ – 2) = 0
∴ (sec θ – 2) (5sec θ + 1) = 0
∴ sec θ – 2 = 0 or 5sec θ + 1 = 0
∴ sec θ = 2 or sec θ = -1/5
Since sec θ ≥ 1 or sec θ ≤ -1,
sec θ = 2
∴ θ = 60° … [ ∵ sec 60° = 2]

Question 9.
Find sin θ such that 3cos θ + 4sin θ = 4.
Solution:
3cos θ + 4sin θ = 4
∴ 3cos θ = 4(1 – sin θ)
Squaring both the sides, we get .
9cos2θ = 16(1 – sin θ)2
∴ 9(1 – sin2 θ) = 16(1 + sin2 θ – 2sin θ)
∴ 9 – 9sin2 θ = 16 + 16sin2 θ – 32sin θ
∴ 25sin2 θ – 32sin θ + 7 = 0
∴ 25sin2 θ – 25sin θ – 7sin θ + 7 = 0
25sin θ (sin θ – 1) – 7 (sin θ – 1) = 0
∴ (sin θ – 1) (25sin θ – 7) = 0
∴ sin θ – 1 = 0 or 25 sin θ – 7 = 0
∴ sin θ = 1 or sin θ = \(\frac{7}{25}\)
Since, -1 ≤ sin θ ≤ 1
∴ sin θ = 1 or \(\frac{7}{25}\)
[Note: Answer given in the textbook is 1. However, as per our calculation it is 1 or \(\frac{7}{25}\).]

Question 10.
If cosec θ + cot θ = 5, then evaluate sec θ.
Solution:
cosec θ + cot θ = 5
∴ \(\frac{1}{\sin \theta}+\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}=5\)
∴ \(\frac{1+\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}=5\)
∴ 1 + cos θ = 5.sin θ
Squaring both the sides, we get
1 + 2 cos θ + cos2 θ = 25 sin2 θ
∴ cos2 θ + 2 cos θ + 1 = 25 (1 – cos2 θ)
∴ cos2 θ + 2 cos θ + 1 = 25 – 25 cos2 θ
∴ 26 cos2 θ + 2 cos θ – 24 = 0
∴ 26 cos2 θ + 26 cos θ – 24 cos θ – 24 = 0
∴ 26 cos θ (cos θ + 1) – 24 (cos θ + 1) = 0
∴ (cos θ + 1) (26 cos θ – 24) = 0
∴ cos θ + 1 = θ or 26 cos θ – 24 = 0
∴ cos θ = -1 or cos θ = \(\frac{24}{26}=\frac{12}{13}\)
When cos θ = -1, sin θ = 0
∴ cot θ and cosec x are not defined,
∴ cos θ ≠ -1
∴ cos θ = \(\frac{12}{13}\)
∴ sec θ = \(\frac{1}{\cos \theta}=\frac{13}{12}\)
[Note: Answer given in the textbook is -1 or \(\frac{13}{12}\).
However, as per our calculation it is only \(\frac{13}{12}\).]

Question 11.
If cot θ = \(\frac{3}{4}\) and π < θ < \(\frac{3 \pi}{2}\), then find the value of 4 cosec θ + 5 cos θ.
Solution:
We know that,
cosec2θ = 1 + cot2 θ = \(\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{2}\) = 1 + \(\frac{9}{16}\)
∴ cosec2 θ = \(\frac{25}{16}\)
∴ cosec θ = \(\pm \frac{5}{4}\)
Since π < θ < \(\frac{3 \pi}{2}\)
θ lies in the third quadrant.
∴ cosec θ < 0
∴ cosec θ = –\(\frac{5}{4}\)
cot θ = \(\frac{3}{4}\)
tan θ = \(\frac{1}{\cot \theta}=\frac{4}{3}\)
We know that,
sec2 θ = 1 + tan2 θ = 1 + \(\left(\frac{4}{3}\right)^{2}\)
= 1 + \(\frac{16}{9}=\frac{25}{9}\)
∴ sec θ = ±\(\frac{5}{3}\)
Since θ lies in the third quadrant,
sec θ < 0
∴ sec θ = –\(\frac{5}{3}\)
cos θ = \(\frac{1}{\sec \theta}=\frac{-3}{5}\)
∴ 4cosec θ + 5cos θ
= \(4\left(-\frac{5}{4}\right)+5\left(-\frac{3}{5}\right)\)
= -5 – 3 = -8

Question 12.
Find the Cartesian co-ordinates of points whose polar co-ordinates are:
i. (3, 90°) ii. (1, 180°)
Solution:
i. (r, θ) = (3, 90°)
Using x = r cos θ and y = r sin θ, where (x, y) are the required cartesian co-ordinates, we get
x = 3cos 90° and y = 3sin 90°
∴ x = 3(0) = 0 and y = 3(1) = 3
∴ the required cartesian co-ordinates are (0, 3).

ii. (r, θ) = (1, 180°)
Using x = r cos θ and y = r sin θ, where (x, y) are the required cartesian co-ordinates, we get
x = 1(cos 180°) and y = 1(sin 180°)
∴ x = -1 and y = 0
∴ the required cartesian co-ordinates are (-1, 0).

Question 13.
Find the polar co-ordinates of points whose Cartesian co-ordinates are:
1. (5, 5) ii. (1, \(\sqrt{3}\))
ii. (-1, -1) iv. (-\(\sqrt{3}\), 1)
Solution:
i. (x, y) = (5, 5)
∴ r = \(\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}\) = \(\sqrt{25+25}\)
\(=\sqrt{50}=5 \sqrt{2}\)
tan θ = \(\frac{y}{x}=\frac{5}{5}\) = 1
Since the given point lies in the 1st quadrant,
θ = 45° …[∵ tan 45° = 1]
∴ the required polar co-ordinates are (\(5 \sqrt{2}\), 45°).

ii. (x, y) = ( 1, \(\sqrt{3}\))
∴ r = \(\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}=\sqrt{1+3}=\sqrt{4}=2\)
tan θ = \(\frac{y}{x}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{1}=\sqrt{3}\)
Since the given point lies in the 1st quadrant,
θ = 60° …[∵ tan 60° = \(\sqrt{3}\)]
∴ the required polar co-ordinates are (2, 60°).

iii. (x, y) = (-1, -1)
∴ r = \(\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}=\sqrt{1+1}=\sqrt{2}\)
tan θ = \(\frac{y}{x}=\frac{-1}{-1}=1\)
∴ tan θ = tan \(\frac{\pi}{4}\)
Since the given point lies in the 3rd quadrant,
tan θ = tan \(\left(\pi+\frac{\pi}{4}\right)\) …[∵ tan (n + x) = tanx]
∴ tan θ = tan \(\left(\frac{5 \pi}{4}\right)\)
∴ θ = \(\frac{5 \pi}{4}\) = 225°
∴ the required polar co-ordinates are (\(\sqrt{2}\), 225°).

iv. (x, y) = (-\(\sqrt{3}\) , 1)
∴ r = \(\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}=\sqrt{3+1}=\sqrt{4}=2\)
tan θ = \(\frac{y}{x}=\frac{1}{-\sqrt{3}}\) = -tan \(\frac{\pi}{6}\)
Since the given point lies in the 2nd quadrant,
tan θ = tan \(\left(\pi-\frac{\pi}{6}\right)\) …[∵ tan (π – x) = – tanx]
∴ tan θ = tan \(\left(\frac{5 \pi}{6}\right)\)
∴ θ = \(\frac{5 \pi}{6}\) = 150°
∴ the required polar co-ordinates are (2, 150°)

Question 14.
Find the values of:
i. sin\(\frac{19 \pi^{e}}{3}\)
ii. cos 1140°
iii. cot \(\frac{25 \pi^{e}}{3}\)
Solution:
i. We know that sine function is periodic with period 2π.
sin \(\frac{19 \pi}{3}\) = sin \(\left(6 \pi+\frac{\pi}{3}\right)\) = sin \(\frac{\pi}{3}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)

ii. We know that cosine function is periodic with period 2π.
cos 1140° = cos (3 × 360° + 60°)
= cos 60° = \(\frac {1}{2}\)

iii. We know that cotangent function is periodic with period π.
cot \(\frac{25 \pi}{3}\) = cot \(\left(8 \pi+\frac{\pi}{3}\right)\) = cot \(\frac{\pi}{3}\) = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

Question 2.
State the signs of:
i. tan 380°
ii. cot 230°
iii 468°
Solution:
1. 380° = 360° + 20°
∴ 380° and 20° are co-terminal angles.
Since 0° < 20° <90°0,
20° lies in the l quadrant.
∴ 380° lies in the 1st quadrant,
∴ tan 380° is positive.

ii. Since, 180° <230° <270°
∴ 230° lies in the 3rd quadrant.
∴ cot 230° is positive.

iii. 468° = 360°+108°
∴ 468° and 108° are co-terminal angles.
Since 90° < 108° < 180°,
108° lies in the 2nd quadrant.
∴ 468° lies in the 2nd quadrant.
∴ sec 468° is negative.

Question 3.
State the signs of cos 4c and cos 4°. Which of these two functions is greater?
Solution:
Since 0° < 4° < 90°, 4° lies in the first quadrant. ∴ cos4° >0 …(i)
Since 1c = 57° nearly,
180° < 4c < 270°
∴ 4c lies in the third quadrant.
∴ cos 4c < 0 ………(ii)
From (i) and (ii),
cos 4° is greater.

Question 4.
State the quadrant in which 6 lies if
i. sin θ < 0 and tan θ > 0
ii. cos θ < 0 and tan θ > 0

i. sin θ < 0 sin θ is negative in 3rd and 4th quadrants, tan 0 > 0
tan θ is positive in 1st and 3rd quadrants.
∴ θ lies in the 3rd quadrant.

ii. cos θ < 0 cos θ is negative in 2nd and 3rd quadrants, tan 0 > 0
tan θ is positive in 1st and 3rd quadrants.
∴ θ lies in the 3rd quadrant.

ii. We know that,
cosec 45° = \(\sqrt{2}\) , cot 45° = 1, tan 0° = 0

ii.\(\cos ^{2} 0+\cos ^{2} \frac{\pi}{6}+\cos ^{2} \frac{\pi}{3}+\cos ^{2} \frac{\pi}{2}\)
Solution:
i. We know that,
cot 45° = 1, sec 60° = 2, sin 30° = 1/2
4 cot 45° – sec2 60° + sin 30°
= 4(1) – (2)2 + \(\frac{1}{2}\)

iii cot x = \(\frac{3}{4}\), x lies in the third quadrant.
iv. tan x = \(\frac{-5}{12}\) x lies in the fourth quadrant.
Solution:
i. cot θ = \(-\frac{3}{5}\)
we know that,
sin2θ = 1 – cos2θ
= 1 – \(\left(-\frac{3}{5}\right)^{2}\)
= 1 – \(\frac{9}{25}=\frac{16}{25}\)
∴ sin θ = ± \(\frac{4}{5}\)
Since 180° < 0 < 270°,
θ lies in the 3rd quadrant.
∴ sin θ < 0
Maharashtra Board 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Trigonometry - I Ex 2.1 37
Since A lies in the 2nd quadrant,
tan A < 0
Maharashtra Board 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Trigonometry - I Ex 2.1 38

We know that,
cosec2 x = 1 + cot2 x
= 1 + \(\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{2}=1+\frac{9}{16}=\frac{25}{16}\)
∴ cosec x = ± \(\frac{5}{4}\)
Since x lies in the 3rd quadrant, cosec x < 0
Maharashtra Board 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 2 Trigonometry - I Ex 2.1 39

iv. Given, tan x = \(-\frac{5}{12}\)
sec2 x = 1 + tan2
= 1 + \(\left(-\frac{5}{12}\right)^{2}\)
= 1 + \(\frac{25}{144}=\frac{169}{144}\)
∴ sec x = ± \(\frac{13}{12}\)
Since x lies in the 4th quadrant,
sec x > 0

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 SO42- ion
c. Addition of BaSO4(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 BaSO4(s) will not affect the equilibrium as the equilibrium constant expression does not include pure solids.

Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 12 Chemical Equilibrium

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.
Kc = [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 Kc.

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 Kc and Kp.
Answer:
Consider a general reversible reaction:
aA(g) + bB(g) ⇌ cC(g) + dD(g)
The equilibrium constant (Kp) in terms of partial pressure is given by equation:
Kp = \(\frac{\left(P_{C}\right)^{c}\left(P_{D}\right)^{d}}{\left(P_{A}\right)^{a}\left(P_{B}\right)^{b}}\) …………(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,
PAV = nART
PA = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{A}}}{\mathrm{V}}\) × RT
\(\frac{\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{A}}}{\mathrm{V}}\) is molar concentration of A in mol dm-3 V
∴ PA = [A]RT where, [A] = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}_{\mathrm{A}}}{\mathrm{V}}\)
Similarly, for other components, PB = [B]RT, PC = [C]RT, PD = [D]RT
Now substituting equations for PA, PB, PC, PD in equation (1), we get
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 12 Chemical Equilibrium 1
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 Kp, 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,
    PCl5(g) ⇌ PCl3(g) + Cl2(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).
    N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⇌ 2NH3(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. H2(g) + I2(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.
Dissolve 4 g cobalt chloride in 40 mL water. It forms a reddish pink solution. Add 60 mL concentrated HCl to this. It will turn blue. Take 5 mL of this solution in a test tube and place it in a beaker containing ice water mixture. The colour of solution will become pink. Place the same test tube in a beaker containing water at 90 °C. The colour of the solution turns blue.
Answer:
Inference: The colour change of the solution from pink to blue is caused by the chemical reaction. On changing the temperature, the direction of the reaction reverses. This indicates that the chemical reaction is reversible. This activity is an example of a reversible chemical reaction.

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.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 12 Chemical Equilibrium 4
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. It means solid iodine sublimes to give iodine vapour and the iodine vapour condenses to form solid iodine.

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).
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 12 Chemical Equilibrium 8
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 NO2 remain unchanged and do not vary with time, because the rate of formation of NO2 is equal to the rate of formation of N2O4.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Solutions Chapter 12 Chemical Equilibrium 9

[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.

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,
Kc = \(\frac{\left[\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}_{(g)}\right]}{\left[\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH}_{(l)}\right]}\)
But [C2H5OH(l)] = 1
∴ Kc = [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 I2(g) ⇌ I2(g)
Kc = [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:

ii. H2(g) + Cl2(g) ⇌ 2HCl(g), Kc = 1018 at 550 K
Answer:
i. For the reaction, Kc = 20 at 550 K
If the value of Kc 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, Kc = 1018 at 550 K
If the value of Kc >>> 103, forward reaction is favoured.
Hence, the given reaction will proceed in the forward direction and will nearly go to completion.

The value of Kc for the dissociation reaction:
H2(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 Kc is very low (that is, Kc < 10-3), then at equilibrium, only a small fraction of the reactants is converted into products.
For the given reaction, Kc <<< 103 at 500 K.
Hence, the equilibrium mixture contains mainly hydrogen molecules.

Question 21.
Straight chain alkanes have higher melting and boiling points as compared to branched isomeric alkanes. Give reason.
Answer:
i. The electronegativity of carbon and hydrogen is nearly the same. Therefore, C-H and C-C bonds are nonpolar covalent bonds and hence, alkanes are nonpolar.
ii. Alkane molecules are held together by weak intermolecular van der Waals forces.
iii. Larger the surface area of molecules, stronger are such intermolecular van der Waals forces.
iv. In straight chain alkane molecules, surface area is relatively larger as compared to branched chain alkanes and as a result, the intermolecular forces are relatively stronger in straight chain alkanes than in branched chain alkanes.

Question 99.
Enlist physical properties of alkenes.
Answer:
The physical properties of alkynes are similar to those of alkanes and alkenes.

  • They are less dense than water.
  • They are insoluble in water and quite soluble in less polar organic solvents like ether, benzene, carbon tetrachloride.
  • The melting points and boiling points of alkynes increase with an increase in molecular mass.

Question 100.
Lithium amide (LiNH2) is very strong base and it reacts with terminal alkynes to form lithium acetylides with the liberation of hydrogen indicating acidic nature of terminal alkynes. Why is it so?
Answer:

  • The hydrogen bonded to C ≡ C triple bond has acidic character.
  • In terminal alkynes, hydrogen atom is directly attached to sp hybridized carbon atom.
  • In sp hybrid orbital, the percentage of s-character is 50%. An electron in s-orbital is very close to the nucleus and is held tightly.
  • The sp hybrid carbon atom in terminal alkynes is more electronegative than the sp2 carbon in ethene or the sp3 carbon in ethane.
  • Due to high electronegative character of carbon in terminal alkynes, hydrogen atom can be given away as proton (H+) to very strong base.

Question 101.
Give reason: Acidic nature of alkynes is used to distinguish between terminal and non-terminal alkynes.
Answer:

  • Acidic alkynes react with certain heavy metal ions like Ag+ and Cu+ and form insoluble acetylides.
  • On addition of acidic alkyne to the solution of AgNO3 in alcohol, it forms a precipitate, which indicates that the hydrogen atom is attached to triply bonded carbon.

Hence, this reaction is used to differentiate terminal alkynes and non-terminal alkynes.

Question 119.
Differentiate between aromatic and aliphatic compounds.
Answer:
Aromatic compounds:

  • Aromatic compounds contain higher percentage of carbon.
  • They bum with sooty flame.
  • They are cyclic compounds with alternate single and double bonds.
  • They are not attacked by normal oxidizing and reducing agents.
  • They do not undergo addition reactions easily. They do not decolourise dilute alkaline aqueous KMnO4 and Br2 in CCl4, though double bonds appear in their structure.
  • They prefer substitution reactions.

Aliphatic compounds:

  • Aliphatic compounds contain lower percentage of carbon.
  • They bum with non-sooty flame.
  • They are open chain compounds.
  • They are easily attacked by oxidizing and reducing agents.
  • Unsaturated aliphatic compounds undergo addition reactions easily. They decolourise dilute aqueous alkaline KMnO4 and Br2 in CCl4.
  • The saturated aliphatic compounds give substitution reactions.

Question 120.

Br2 in CCl4 Decolourisation of red brown colour of bromine No decolourisation
H2O in acidic medium Addition of H2O molecule No reaction

Question 122.
Give the evidence for the cyclic structure of benzene.
Answer:
Evidence for the cyclic structure of benzene:
i. Benzene yields only one and no isomeric monosubstituted bromobenzene (C6H5Br) when treated with equimolar bromine in FeBr3. This indicates that all six hydrogen atoms in benzene are identical.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 114
ii. This is possible only if benzene has cyclic structure of six carbons bound to one hydrogen atom each.
iii. Benzene on catalytic hydrogenation gives cyclohexane.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 115
This confirms the cyclic structure of benzene and three C = C in it.

Question 123.
Write a short note on the Kekule structure of benzene.
Answer:
Kekule structure of benzene:
i. August Kekule in 1865 suggested the structure for benzene having a cyclic planar ring of six carbon atoms with alternate single and double bonds and hydrogen atom attached to each carbon atom.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 116
ii. The Kekule structure indicates the possibility of two isomeric 1,2-dibromobenzenes. In one of the isomers, the bromine atoms would be attached to the doubly bonded carbon atoms whereas in the other, they would be attached to single bonded carbons.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 117
iii. However, benzene was found to form only one ortho-disubstituted benzene. This problem was overcome by Kekule by suggesting the concept of oscillating nature of double bonds in benzene as given below.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 118
iv. Even with this modification, Kekule structure of benzene failed to explain unusual stability and preference to substitution reactions rather than addition reactions, which was later explained by resonance.

Question 124.
Explain the resonance phenomenon with respect to benzene.
OR
Explain the resonance hybrid structure of benzene.
Answer:

  • Benzene is a hybrid of various resonance structures. The two structures, (A) and (B) given by Kekule are the main contributing structures.
  • The resonance hybrid is represented by inserting a circle or a dotted circle inscribed in the hexagon as shown in (C).
  • The circle represents six electrons delocalized over the six carbon atoms of benzene ring.
  • A double headed arrow between the resonance structures is used to represent the resonance phenomenon.

Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 119

Question 125.
Why does benzene not prefer to undergo addition reactions?
Answer:

  • Benzene is highly unsaturated molecule but despite of this feature, it does not give addition reaction.
  • The actual structure of benzene is represented by the resonance hybrid which is the most stable form of benzene than any of its resonance structures.
  • This stability due to resonance (delocalization of π electrons) is so high that π-bonds of the molecule becomes strong and thus, resist breaking.

Thus, benzene does not prefer to undergo addition reactions.

Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons

Question 126.
Explain the resonance structures of benzene using the orbital overlap concept.
Answer:
The structure of benzene can be better explained by the orbital overlap concept,
i. All six carbon atoms in benzene are sp2 hybridized. Two sp2 hybrid orbitals of each carbon atom overlap and form carbon-carbon sigma (σ) bond and the remaining third sp2 hybrid orbital of each carbon overlaps with s orbital of a hydrogen atom to form six C – H sigma bonds.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 120

ii. The unhybridized p orbitals of carbon atoms overlap laterally forming π bonds. There are two possibilities of forming three π bonds by overlap of p orbitals of C1 – C2, C3 – C4, C5 – C6 or C2 – C3, C4 – C5, C6 – C1, respectively, as shown in the following figure. Both the structures are equally probable.

According to resonance theory, these are two resonance structures of benzene.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 121

Question 127.
Explain the structure of benzene with respect to molecular orbital theory.
Answer:
i. According to molecular orbital (MO) theory, the six p orbitals of six carbons give rise to six molecular orbitals of benzene.
ii. Shape of the most stable MO is as show in the figure below. Three of these π molecular orbitals lie above and the other below those of free carbon atom energies.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 122
iii. The six electrons of the p orbitals cover all the six carbon atoms and are said to be delocalized. Delocalization of π electrons results in stability of benzene molecule.

Question 128.
Give the carbon-carbon bond length in benzene. Explain why benzene shows unusual behaviour.
Answer:
i. X-ray diffraction data indicate that all C – C bond lengths in benzene are equal (139 pm) which is an intermediate between C – C (154 pm) and C = C bond (133 pm).

ii. Thus, absence of pure double bond in benzene accounts for its reluctance to addition reactions under normal conditions, which explains unusual behaviour of benzene.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 123

Question 129.
Write a short note on aromaticity.
Answer:
i. All aromatic compounds undergoes substitution reactions rather than addition reactions and this property is referred to as aromaticity or aromatic character.
ii. The aromatic character of benzene is correlated to its structure.
iii. Aromaticity is due to extensive cyclic delocalization of p electrons in the planar ring structure.
iv. Three rules of aromaticity that is used for predicting whether a particular compound is aromatic or non-aromatic are as follows:

  • Aromatic compounds are cyclic and planar (all atoms in ring are sp2 hybridized).
  • Each atom in aromatic ring has a p orbital. The p orbitals must be parallel so that continuous overlap is possible around the ring.
  • Huckel rule: The cyclic π molecular orbital formed by overlap of p orbitals must contain (4n + 2) p electrons, where n = integer 0, 1, 2, 3, … etc.

Question 130.
State and explain the Huckel rule of aromaticity.
Answer:
Huckel rule: The cyclic π molecular orbital formed by overlap of p orbitals must contain (4n + 2) p electrons, where n = integer 0, 1,2,3, … etc.

Explanation:
According to Huckel rule, a cyclic and planar compound is aromatic if it the number of π electrons is equal to (4n + 2), where n = integer 0, 1, 2, 3, … etc.

n Number of π electrons
n = 0 (4 × 0) – 2 = 2
n = 1 (4 × 1) + 2 = 6
n = 2 (4 × 2) + 2 = 10

e.g. Consider benzene molecule:
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 124
Benzene has 6π electrons. According to Huckel rule, if n = 1, then (4n + 2)π = 6π electrons. Hence, benzene is aromatic.

Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons

n = 4/4 = 1, here, ‘n’ comes out to be an integer.
Hence, benzene is aromatic.

ii. Naphthalene:
a. It is cyclic and planar.
b. It has 5 double bonds and 10 n electrons.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 126
c. It has a p orbital on each carbon atom of the ring. Hence, a continuous overlap around the ring is possible.
d. According to Huckel rule, this compound is aromatic if, 4n + 2 = Number of π electrons.
4n + 2 = 10,
∴ 4n = 10 – 2 = 8
n = 8/4 = 2, Here ‘n’ comes out to be an integer.
Hence, naphthalene is aromatic.

iii. Cycloheptatriene:
a. It is cyclic and planar.
b. It has three double bonds and 6 π electrons.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 127
c. But one of the carbon atoms is saturated (sp3 hybridized) and it does not have a p orbital.
d. Hence, a continuous overlap around the ring is not possible in cycloheptatriene. Hence, it is non-aromatic.

Question 132.
How does Huckel rule help in determining the aromaticity of pyridine?
Answer:
i. Pyridine has three double bonds and 6 π electrons.
ii. The six p orbitals containing six electrons form delocalized π molecular orbital.
iii. The unused sp2 hybrid orbital of nitrogen containing two non-bonding electrons is as it is.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 128
iv. According to Huckel rule, this compound is aromatic if, 4n + 2 = Number of π electrons
4n + 2 = 6,
∴ 4n = 6 – 2 = 4
n = 4/4 = 1, here ‘n’ comes out to be an integer. Hence, pyridine is aromatic.

Question 153.
Write a note on the directive influence of substituents (functional groups) in monosubstituted benzene.
Answer:
i. In benzene, all hydrogen atoms are equivalent and so, when it undergoes electrophilic substitution reactions, only one monosubstituted product is possible.
Monosubstituted benzene:
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 144
ii. When monosubstituted benzene undergoes further electrophilic substitution, the second substituent (electrophile, E) can occupy any of the five positions available and give three disubstituted products.
But these disubstituted products are not formed in equal amounts.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 145
iii. The position of second substituent (E) is determined by the nature of substituent (S) already present in the benzene ring and not on the nature of second substituent (E).
iv. The groups which direct the incoming group to ortho and para positions are called ortho and para directing groups. The groups which direct the incoming group to meta positions are called meta directing groups. Thus, depending on the nature of the substituent (S) either ortho and para products or meta products are formed as major products.

Question 154.
What are ortho and para directing groups? Enlist few ortho and para directing groups.
Answer:
The groups which direct the incoming group to ortho and para positions are called ortho and para directing groups.
Ortho and para directing groups:
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 146

Question 155.
Explain the directive influence of ortho, para directing groups in monosubstituted benzene using suitable example.
OR
Explain the directive influence of -OH group in benzene.
Answer:
i. The directive influence of ortho, para directing groups can be explained with the help of inductive and resonance effects.
ii. phenol has the following resonating structures:
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 147
iii. It can be seen from the above resonating structures, that the ortho (o-) and para (p-) positions have a greater electron density than the meta positions.
iv. Therefore, -OH group activates the benzene ring for the attack of second substituent (E) at these electron rich centres. Thus, phenolic -OH group is activating and ortho, para-directing group.
v. In phenol, -OH group has electron withdrawing inductive (-I) effect which slightly decreases the electron density at ortho positions in benzene ring. Thus, resonance effect and inductive effect of -OH group act opposite to each other. However, the strong resonance effect dominates over inductive effect.

Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons

Question 156.
Explain the o, p-directive effect of methyl group.
Answer:

  • All ortho and para directing groups possess nonbonding electron pair on the atom which is directly attached to the aromatic ring; however, methyl group is an exception.
    Methyl (or alkyl groups) is ortho and para directing, although it has no nonbonding electron pair on the key atom. This is explained on the basis of special type of resonance called hyperconjugation or no bond resonance.

Question 157.
Explain why halide group is an ortho and para directing group.
Answer:
i. In aryl halides, halogens are moderately deactivating. Because of their strong -I effect, overall electron density on the benzene ring decreases, which makes the electrophilic substitution difficult.
ii. However, halogens are ortho and para directing. This can be explained by considering resonance structures.
iii. e.g. Chlorobenzene has the following resonating structures:
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 148
iv. Due to resonance, the electron density on ortho and para positions is greater than meta positions and hence, -Cl is ortho and para directing.

Question 158.
What are meta directing groups? Enlist few of them.
Answer:
The groups which direct the incoming group to meta positions are called meta directing groups.
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 149
[Note: All meta directing groups have positive (or partial positive) charge on the atom which is directly attached to an aromatic ring.]

Question 159.
Explain the directive influence of nitro group in nitrobenzene.
OR
Explain why nitro group is a meta-directing group.
Answer:
i. Meta directing group withdraws electrons from the aromatic ring by resonance, making the ring electron-deficient. Therefore, meta groups are ring deactivating groups.
ii. Due to -I effect, -NO2 group reduces electron density in benzene ring on ortho and para positions. So, the attack of incoming group becomes difficult at ortho and para positions. The incoming group can attack on meta positions more easily.
iii. The various resonance structures of nitrobenzene are as shown below:
Maharashtra Board Class 11 Chemistry Important Questions Chapter 15 Hydrocarbons 150
iv. It is clear from the above resonance structures that the ortho and para positions have comparatively less electron density than at meta positions. Hence, the incoming group/electrophile attacks on meta positions.

Question 160.
What are polycyclic aromatic compounds? How are they produced?
Answer:

  • Polycyclic aromatic compounds are the hydrocarbons containing more than two benzene rings fused together.
  • They are produced by incomplete combustion of tobacco, coal and petroleum.

Question 161.
Write the harmful effects of benzene.
Answer:

  • Benzene is both, toxic and carcinogenic (cancer causing).
  • In fact, it might be considered “the mother of all carcinogens” as a large number of carcinogens have structures that include benzene rings.
  • In liver, benzene is oxidized to an epoxide and benzopyrene is converted into an epoxy diol. These substances are carcinogenic and can react with DNA and thus, can induce mutation leading to uncontrolled growth of cancer cells.

(i) P(X = 1)
(ii) P(X ≥ 1)
(iii) P(X ≤ 8).
Solution:
X ~ B(10, 0.2)
∴ n = 10, p = 0.2
∴ q = 1 – p = 1 – 0.2 = 0.8
The p,m.f. of X is given by
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Binomial Distribution Miscellaneous Exercise 8 II Q1

Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Binomial Distribution Miscellaneous Exercise 8

Question 2.
Let X ~ B(n, p).
(i) If n = 10, E(X) = 5, find p and Var(X).
(ii) If E(X) = 5 and Var(X) = 2.5, find n and p.
Solution:
X ~ B(n, p)
(i) Given: n = 10 and E(X) = 5
But E(X) = np
∴ np = 5.
∴ 10p = 5
∴ p = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
∴ q = 1 – p = 1 – \(\frac{1}{2}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Var(X) = npq = 10(\(\frac{1}{2}\))(\(\frac{1}{2}\)) = 2.5.
Hence, p = \(\frac{1}{2}\) and Var(X) = 2.5

(ii) Given: E(X) = 5 and Var(X) = 2.5
∴ np = 5 and npq = 2.5
∴ \(\frac{n p q}{n p}=\frac{2.5}{5}\)
∴ q = 0.5 = \(\frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}\)
∴ p = 1 – q = 1 – \(\frac{1}{2}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Substituting p = \(\frac{1}{2}\) in np = 5, we get
n(\(\frac{1}{2}\)) = 5
∴ n = 10
Hence, n = 10 and p = \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Question 3.
If a fair coin is tossed 10 times and the probability that it shows heads (i) 5 times (ii) in the first four tosses and tail in the last six tosses.
Solution:
Let X = number of heads.
p = probability that coin tossed shows a head
∴ p = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
q = 1 – p = 1 – \(\frac{1}{2}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Given: n = 10
∴ X ~ B(10, \(\frac{1}{2}\))
The p.m.f. of X is given by
P(X = x) = \({ }^{n} C_{x} P^{x} q^{n-x}\)
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Binomial Distribution Miscellaneous Exercise 8 II Q3

(i) P(coin shows heads 5 times) = P[X = 5]
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Binomial Distribution Miscellaneous Exercise 8 II Q3.1
Hence, the probability that can shows heads exactly 5 times = \(\frac{63}{256}\)

(ii) P(getting heads in first four tosses and tails in last six tosses) = P(X = 4)
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Binomial Distribution Miscellaneous Exercise 8 II Q3.2
Hence, the probability that getting heads in first four tosses and tails in last six tosses = \(\frac{105}{512}\).

Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Binomial Distribution Miscellaneous Exercise 8

Question 4.
The probability that a bomb will hit a target is 0.8. Find the probability that out of 10 bombs dropped, exactly 2 will miss the target.
Solution:
Let X = the number of bombs hitting the target.
p = probability that bomb will hit the target
∴ p = 0.8 = \(\frac{8}{10}=\frac{4}{5}\)
∴ q = 1 – p = 1 – \(\frac{4}{5}\) = \(\frac{1}{5}\)
Given: n = 10
∴ X ~ B(10, \(\frac{4}{5}\))
The p.m.f. of X is given as:
P[X = x] = \({ }^{n} \mathrm{C}_{x} p^{x} q^{n-x}\)
i.e.p(x) = \({ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_{x}\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^{x}\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^{10-x}\)
P(exactly 2 bombs will miss the target) = P(exactly 8 bombs will hit the target)
= P[X = 8]
= p(8)
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Binomial Distribution Miscellaneous Exercise 8 II Q4
Hence, the probability that exactly 2 bombs will miss the target = 45\(\left(\frac{2^{16}}{5^{10}}\right)\)

Question 5.
The probability that a mountain bike travelling along a certain track will have a tire burst is 0.05. Find the probability that among 17 riders:
(i) exactly one has a burst tyre
(ii) at most three have a burst tyre
(iii) two or more have burst tyres.
Solution:
Let X = number of burst tyres.
p = probability that a mountain bike travelling along a certain track will have a tyre burst.
∴ p = 0.05
∴ q = 1 – p = 1 – 0.05 = 0.95
Given: n = 17
∴ X ~ B(17, 0.05)
The p.m.f. of X is given by
P(X = x) = \({ }^{n} \mathrm{C}_{x} P^{x} q^{n-x}\)
i.e.(x) = \({ }^{17} \mathrm{C}_{x}(0.05)^{x}(0.95)^{17-x}\), x = 0, 1, 2, ……, 17
(i) P(exactly one has a burst tyre)
P(X = 1) = p(1) = \({ }^{17} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) (0.05)1 (0.95)17-1
= 17(0.05) (0.95)16
= 0.85(0.95)16
Hence, the probability that riders has exactly one burst tyre = (0.85)(0.95)16

Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Binomial Distribution Miscellaneous Exercise 8

(ii) P(at most three have a burst tyre) = P(X ≤ 3)
= P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)
= p(0) + p(1) + p(2) + p(3)
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Binomial Distribution Miscellaneous Exercise 8 II Q5
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Binomial Distribution Miscellaneous Exercise 8 II Q5.1
Hence, the probability that at most three riders have burst tyre = (2.0325)(0.95)14.

(iii) P(two or more have tyre burst) = P(X ≥ 2)
= 1 – P(X < 2)
= 1 – [P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)]
= 1 – [p(0) + p(1)]
= 1 – [\({ }^{17} \mathrm{C}_{0}\) (0.05)0 (0.95)17 + \({ }^{17} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) (0.05)(0.95)16]
= 1 – [1(1)(0.95)17 + 17(0.05)(0.95)16]
= 1 – (0.95)16[0.95 + 0.85]
= 1 – (1.80)(0.95)16
= 1 – (1.8)(0.95)16
Hence, the probability that two or more riders have tyre burst = 1 – (1.8)(0.95)16.

Question 6.
The probability that a lamp in a classroom will be burnt out is 0.3. Six such lamps are fitted in the classroom. If it is known that the classroom is unusable if the number of lamps burning in it is less than four, find the probability that the classroom cannot be used on a random occasion.
Solution:
Let X = number of lamps burnt out in the classroom.
p = probability of a lamp in a classroom will be burnt
∴ p = 0.3 = \(\frac{3}{10}\)
∴ q = 1 – p = 1 – \(\frac{3}{10}\) = \(\frac{7}{10}\)
Given: n = 6
∴ X ~ B(6, \(\frac{3}{10}\))

Question 12.
Given X ~ B(n, P)
(i) If n = 10 and p = 0.4, find E(x) and Var(X).
(ii) If p = 0.6 and E(X) = 6, find n and Var(X).
(iii) If n = 25, E(X) = 10, find p and SD(X).
(iv) If n = 10, E(X) = 8, find Var(X).
Solution:
(i) Given: n = 10 and p = 0.4
∴ q = 1 – p = 1 – 0.4 = 0.6
∴ E(X) = np = 10(0.4) = 4
Var(X) = npq = 10(0.4)(0.6) = 2.4
Hence, E(X) = 4, Var(X) = 2.4.

(ii) Given: p = 0.6, E (X) = 6
E(X) = np
6 = n(0.6)
n = \(\frac{6}{0.6}\) = 10
Now, q = 1 – p = 1 – 0.6 = 0.4
∴ Var(X) = npq = 10(0.6)(0.4) = 2.4
Hence, n = 10 and Var(X) = 2.4.

(iii) Given: n = 25, E(X) = 10
E(X) = np
10 = 25p
p = \(\frac{10}{25}=\frac{2}{5}\)
∴ q = 1 – p = 1 – \(\frac{2}{5}\) = \(\frac{3}{5}\)
Var(X) = npq = \(25 \times \frac{2}{5} \times \frac{3}{5}\) = 6
∴ SD(X) = √Var(X) = √6
Hence, p = \(\frac{2}{5}\) and S.D.(X) = √6.

Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 8 Binomial Distribution Ex 8.1

(iv) Given: n = 10, E(X) = 8
E(X) = np
8 = 10p
p = \(\frac{8}{10}=\frac{4}{5}\)
q = 1 – p = 1 – \(\frac{4}{5}\) = \(\frac{1}{5}\)
Var(X) = npq = \(10\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)\left(\frac{1}{5}\right)=\frac{8}{5}\)
Hence, Var(X) = \(\frac{8}{5}\).

(ii) Amount of syrup prescribed by a physician.
(iii) The person on a high protein diet is interesting to gain weight in a week.
(iv) 20 white rats are available for an experiment. Twelve rats are males. A scientist randomly selects 5 rats, the number of female rats selected on a specific day.
(v) A highway-safety group is interested in studying the speed (in km/hr) of a car at a checkpoint.
Solution:
(i) Let X = number of unemployed graduates in a town.
Since the population of the town is 1 lakh, X takes the finite values.
∴ random variable X is discrete.
Range = {0, 1, 2, …, 99999, 100000}.

(ii) Let X = amount of syrup prescribed by a physician.
Then X takes uncountable infinite values.
∴ random variable X is continuous.

(iii) Let X = gain of weight in a week
Then X takes uncountable infinite values
∴ random variable X is continuous.

(iv) Let X = number of female rats selected on a specific day.
Since the total number of rats is 20 which includes 12 males and 8 females, X takes the finite values.
∴ random variable X is discrete.
Range = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

(v) Let X = speed of .the car in km/hr.
Then X takes uncountable infinite values
∴ random variable X is continuous.

Find the probability that
(i) X is positive
(ii) X is non-negative
(iii) X is odd
(iv) X is even.
Solution:
(i) P(X is positive) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)
= 0.25 + 0.15 + 0.1
= 0.50

(ii) P(X is non-negative)
= P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)
= 0.20 + 0.25 + 0.15 + 0.1
= 0.70

(iii) P(X is odd)
= P(X = -3) + P(X = -1) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 3)
= 0.05 + 0.15 + 0.25 + 0.1
= 0.55

Solution:
P(X ≤ 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)
= \(\frac{{ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{0}}{2^{5}}+\frac{{ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{1}}{2^{5}}+\frac{{ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{2}}{2^{5}}\)
= \(\frac{{ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{5}}{2^{5}}+\frac{{ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{4}}{2^{5}}+\frac{{ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{3}}{2^{5}}\) ………[latex]{ }^{n} \mathrm{C}_{r}={ }^{n} \mathrm{C}_{n-r}[/latex]
= P(X = 5) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 3)

Find a and obtain c.d.f. of X.
Solution:
For p.m.f. of a r.v. X
\(\sum_{i=1}^{5} P(X=x)=1\)
∴ P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 1
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 7 Probability Distributions Miscellaneous Exercise 7 II Q5.1
Let F(x) be the c.d.f. of X.
Then F(x) = P(X ≤ x)
∴ F(1) = P(X ≤ 1) = P(X = 1) = \(\frac{1}{20}\)
F(2) = P(X ≤ 2) = P(X = 1) + P (X = 2)
\(=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{3}{20}=\frac{4}{20}=\frac{1}{5}\)
P(3) = P(X ≤ 3) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)
\(=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{3}{20}+\frac{5}{20}=\frac{9}{20}\)
F(4) = P(X ≤ 4) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)
\(=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{3}{20}+\frac{5}{20}+\frac{10}{20}=\frac{19}{20}\)
F(5) = P(X ≤ 5) = P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)
\(=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{3}{20}+\frac{5}{20}+\frac{10}{20}+\frac{1}{20}=\frac{20}{20}=1\)

Question 6.
A fair coin is tossed 4 times. Let X denote the number of heads obtained. Write down the probability distribution of X. Also, find the formula for p.m.f. of X.
Solution:
When a fair coin is tossed 4 times then the sample space is
S = {HHHH, HHHT, HHTH, HTHH, THHH, HHTT, HTHT, HTTH, THHT, THTH, TTHH, HTTT, THTT, TTHT, TTTH, TTTT}
∴ n(S) = 16
X denotes the number of heads.
∴ X can take the value 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
When X = 0, then X = {TTTT}
∴ n (X) = 1
∴ P(X = 0) = \(\frac{n(X)}{n(S)}=\frac{1}{16}=\frac{{ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{0}}{16}\)
When X = 1, then
X = {HTTT, THTT, TTHT, TTTH}
∴ n(X) = 4
∴ P(X = 1) = \(\frac{n(X)}{n(S)}=\frac{4}{16}=\frac{{ }^{4} C_{1}}{16}\)
When X = 2, then
X = {HHTT, HTHT, HTTH, THHT, THTH, TTHH}
∴ n(X) = 6
∴ P(X = 2) = \(\frac{n(X)}{n(S)}=\frac{6}{16}=\frac{{ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{2}}{16}\)
When X = 3, then
X = {HHHT, HHTH, HTHH, THHH}
∴ n(X) = 4
∴ P(X = 3) = \(\frac{n(X)}{n(S)}=\frac{4}{16}=\frac{{ }^{4} C_{3}}{16}\)
When X = 4, then X = {HHHH}
∴ n(X) = 1
∴ P(X = 4) = \(\frac{n(X)}{n(S)}=\frac{1}{16}=\frac{{ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{4}}{16}\)
∴ the probability distribution of X is as follows:
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 7 Probability Distributions Miscellaneous Exercise 7 II Q6
Also, the formula for p.m.f. of X is
P(x) = \(\frac{{ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{x}}{16}\), x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 and = 0, otherwise.

Question 7.
Find the probability distribution of the number of successes in two tosses of a die, where success is defined as
(i) number greater than 4
(ii) six appear on at least one die.
Solution:
When a die is tossed two times, we obtain (6 × 6) = 36 number of observations.
Let X be the random variable, which represents the number of successes.
Here, success refers to the number greater than 4.
P(X = 0) = P(number less than or equal to 4 on both the tosses)
= \(\frac{4}{6} \times \frac{4}{6}=\frac{16}{36}=\frac{4}{9}\)
P(X = 1) = P(number less than or equal to 4 on first toss and greater than 4 on second toss) + P(number greater than 4 on first toss and less than or equal to 4 on second toss)
= \(\frac{4}{6} \times \frac{2}{6}+\frac{4}{6} \times \frac{2}{6}\)
= \(\frac{8}{36}+\frac{8}{36}\)
= \(\frac{16}{36}\)
= \(\frac{4}{9}\)
P(X = 2) = P(number greater than 4 on both the tosses)
= \(\frac{2}{6} \times \frac{2}{6}=\frac{4}{36}=\frac{1}{9}\)
Thus, the probability distribution is as follows:
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 7 Probability Distributions Miscellaneous Exercise 7 II Q7
(ii) Here, success means six appears on at least one die.
P(Y = 0) = P(six appears on none of the dice) = \(\frac{5}{6} \times \frac{5}{6}=\frac{25}{36}\)
P(Y = 1) = P(six appears on none of the dice x six appears on at least one of the dice ) + P(six appears on none of the dice x six appears on at least one of the dice)
= \(\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{5}{6}+\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{5}{6}=\frac{5}{36}+\frac{5}{36}=\frac{10}{36}\)
P(Y = 2) = P(six appears on at least one of the dice) = \(\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{36}\)
Thus, the required probability distribution is as follows:

The following is the c.d.f. of a r.v. X:
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 7 Probability Distributions Miscellaneous Exercise 7 II Q9
Find
(i) p.m.f. of X
(ii) P( -1 ≤ X ≤ 2)
(iii) P(X ≤ X > 0).
Solution:
(i) From the given table
F(-3) = 0.1, F(-2) = 0.3, F(-1) = 0.5
F(0) = 0.65, f(1) = 0.75, F(2) = 0.85
F(3) = 0.9, F(4) = 1
P(X = -3) = F(-3) = 0.1
P(X = -2) = F(-2) – F(-3) = 0.3 – 0.1 = 0.2
P(X = -1) = F(-1) – F(-2) = 0.5 – 0.3 = 0.2
P(X = 0) = F(0) – F(-1) = 0.65 – 0.5 = 0.15
P(X = 1) = F(1) – F(0) = 0.75 – 0.65 = 0.1
P(X = 2) = F(2) – F(1) = 0.85 – 0.75 = 0.1
P(X = 3) = F(3) – F(2) = 0.9 – 0.85 = 0.1
P(X = 4) = F(4) – F(3) = 1 – 0.9 = 0.1
∴ the p.m.f of X is as follows:
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 7 Probability Distributions Miscellaneous Exercise 7 II Q9.1
(ii) P(-1 ≤ X ≤ 2) = P(X = -1) + P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)
= 0.2 + 0.15 + 0.1 + 0.1
= 0.55

(iii) (X ≤ 3) ∩ (X > 0)

Question 11.
A player tosses two wins. He wins ₹ 10 if 2 heads appear, ₹ 5 if 1 head appears and ₹ 2 if no head appears. Find the expected winning amount and variance of the winning amount.
Solution:
When a coin is tossed twice, the sample space is
S = {HH, HT, TH, HH}
Let X denote the amount he wins.
Then X takes values 10, 5, 2.
P(X = 10) = P(2 heads appear) = \(\frac{1}{4}\)
P(X = 5) = P(1 head appears) = \(\frac{2}{4}\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
P(X = 2) = P(no head appears) = \(\frac{1}{4}\)
We construct the following table to calculate the mean and the variance of X:
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 7 Probability Distributions Miscellaneous Exercise 7 II Q11
From the table Σxi . P(xi) = 5.5, \(\Sigma x_{i}^{2} \cdot P\left(x_{i}\right)\) = 38.5
E(X) = Σxi . P(xi) = 5.5
Var(X) = \(\Sigma x_{i}^{2} \cdot P\left(x_{i}\right)\) – [E(X)]2
= 38.5 – (5.5)2
= 38.5 – 30.25
= 8.25
∴ Hence, expected winning amount = ₹ 5.5 and variance of winning amount = ₹ 8.25.

Question 12.
Let the p.m.f. of r.v. X be P(x) = \(\frac{3-x}{10}\), for x = -1, 0, 1, 2 and = 0, otherwise.
Calculate E(X) and Var(X).
Solution:
P(X) = \(\frac{3-x}{10}\)
X takes values -1, 0, 1, 2
P(X = -1) = P(-1) = \(\frac{3+1}{10}=\frac{4}{10}\)
P(X = 0) = P(0) = \(\frac{3-0}{10}=\frac{3}{10}\)
P(X = 1) = P(1) = \(\frac{3-1}{10}=\frac{2}{10}\)
P(X = 2) = P(2) = \(\frac{3-2}{10}=\frac{1}{10}\)
We construct the following table to calculate the mean and variance of X:
Maharashtra Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 7 Probability Distributions Miscellaneous Exercise 7 II Q12
From the table
ΣxiP(xi) = 0 and \(\Sigma x_{i}{ }^{2} \cdot P\left(x_{i}\right)\) = 1
E(X) = ΣxiP(xi) = 0
Var(X) = \(\Sigma x_{i}{ }^{2} \cdot P\left(x_{i}\right)\) – [E(X)]2
= 1 – 0
= 1
Hence, E(X) = 0, Var (X) = 1.
