Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Which of the following phenomenon has a higher enthalpy of adsorption?

    • A.

      Physisorption

    • B.

      Chemisorption

    • C.

      Desorption

    • D.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    B. Chemisorption
    Explanation
    Chemisorption has a higher enthalpy of adsorption compared to physisorption. Chemisorption involves the formation of chemical bonds between the adsorbate and the adsorbent, resulting in a stronger interaction and higher enthalpy of adsorption. Physisorption, on the other hand, involves weak van der Waals forces and does not involve the formation of chemical bonds, leading to a lower enthalpy of adsorption. Desorption refers to the process of releasing adsorbed molecules from the surface, and it does not directly relate to the enthalpy of adsorption.

  • 5. 

    Which of the following molecule has highest boiling point?

    Correct Answer
    C.
    Explanation
    The molecule with the highest boiling point is the one with the strongest intermolecular forces. This is because stronger intermolecular forces require more energy to overcome, leading to a higher boiling point. In general, molecules with larger molecular size and more polarizable electron clouds will have stronger intermolecular forces. Therefore, the molecule with the highest boiling point will likely have a larger size and/or more polarizable electron clouds.

    What are the products of hydrolysis of sugar?

    • A.

      Sucrose

    • B.

      Sucrose & Glucose

    • C.

      Glucose

    • D.

      Maltose

    Correct Answer
    B. Sucrose & Glucose
    Explanation
    The products of hydrolysis of sugar are sucrose and glucose. Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction in which a compound is broken down by the addition of water molecules. In the case of sugar, when it undergoes hydrolysis, it is broken down into its constituent parts, which are sucrose and glucose. Sucrose is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose, and during hydrolysis, it is broken down into its monosaccharide components, glucose and fructose. Therefore, both sucrose and glucose are the products of hydrolysis of sugar.

    Which of the following shows Schottkydefects?

    • A.

      Metals

    • B.

      Covalent

    • C.

      Ionic

    • D.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    C. Ionic
    Explanation
    Ionic compounds exhibit Schottky defects. Schottky defects occur when pairs of cations and anions are missing from their lattice positions in an ionic crystal. This defect arises due to the absence of an equal number of cations and anions, resulting in a charge imbalance. In ionic compounds, such as salts, the strong electrostatic forces between oppositely charged ions hold the crystal lattice together. When some ions are missing, the crystal structure becomes distorted, leading to Schottky defects.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Which of the following defects does not alter the density of related solids?

    • A.

      Schottky defect

    • B.

      Vacancy defect

    • C.

      Frenkel defect

    • D.

      Interstitial defect

    Correct Answer
    C. Frenkel defect
    Explanation
    The Frenkel defect is a type of point defect in a crystal lattice where an atom or ion is displaced from its normal lattice site and occupies an interstitial site. This defect does not alter the density of related solids because the displaced atom or ion still remains within the crystal structure, albeit in a different position. In contrast, the other defects mentioned (Schottky defect, vacancy defect, and interstitial defect) involve missing or additional atoms or ions, which can alter the density of the solids.

    Which of the following atoms increase the Conductivity of silicon?

    • A.

      P

    • B.

      Al

    • C.

      Ga

    • D.

      In

    Correct Answer
    A. P
    Explanation
    Phosphorus (P) increases the conductivity of silicon. This is because phosphorus is a Group V element, meaning it has five valence electrons. When phosphorus is added to silicon, it donates its extra electron to the silicon lattice, creating an excess of negative charge carriers (electrons). This results in an increase in the conductivity of the silicon material, making it a better conductor of electricity.

    • B.

      353.5 pm

    • C.

      553.5 pm

    • D.

      535.5 pm

    Correct Answer
    B. 353.5 pm
    Explanation
    The length of the side of the unit cell for a metal with an FCC (face-centered cubic) structure can be calculated using the formula: side length = 4 * (atomic radius / √2). Plugging in the given atomic radius of 125 pm into the formula, we get: side length = 4 * (125 pm / √2) = 353.5 pm. Therefore, the correct answer is 353.5 pm.

    A first order reaction is found to have a rate constant k = 5.5 x 10-14s-1. Find the half life of the reaction?

    Correct Answer
    B.
    Explanation
    The half-life of a first-order reaction can be calculated using the equation t1/2 = ln(2)/k, where k is the rate constant. In this case, the rate constant is given as k = 5.5 x 10-14s-1. Substituting this value into the equation, we get t1/2 = ln(2)/(5.5 x 10-14s-1).

    Name the method used for removing gangue from sulphideores 

    • A.

      Gravity separation

    • B.

      Hydraulic washing

    • C.

      Magnetic separation

    • D.

      Froth floatation

    Correct Answer
    D. Froth floatation
    Explanation
    Froth floatation is the method used for removing gangue from sulphide ores. In this process, the ore is finely powdered and mixed with water and a frothing agent. Air is blown through the mixture, causing the sulphide particles to stick to the froth, while the gangue particles sink to the bottom. The froth is then skimmed off and the concentrated sulphide ore is obtained. This method is effective for separating sulphide ores from gangue because sulphide ores are hydrophobic and tend to adhere to the froth, while gangue is hydrophilic and sinks.

    • C.

      Steel

    • D.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    B. Wrought iron
    Explanation
    Wrought iron is considered the purest form of iron because it has a very low carbon content, typically less than 0.08%. It is produced by removing impurities from cast iron through a process called puddling. Wrought iron is known for its malleability, ductility, and resistance to corrosion. It is often used in decorative and ornamental applications, as well as for making tools and weapons. Cast iron, on the other hand, has a higher carbon content and is more brittle, while steel is an alloy of iron and carbon with varying carbon content.

    What is the hybridisation of XeOF4?

    Correct Answer
    A.
    Explanation
    The hybridization of XeOF4 is sp3d2. In XeOF4, the central xenon atom is bonded to four fluoride atoms and one oxygen atom. The xenon atom has 8 valence electrons, and in order to form bonds, it needs to promote two of its electrons from the 5s and 5p orbitals to the empty 5d orbitals. This results in the formation of six sp3d2 hybrid orbitals, which are used for bonding with the surrounding atoms.

    In the mechanism of the following reaction: Which of the following is a fast step reaction?

    • A.

      Formation of carbocation

    • B.

      Formation of protonated alcohol

    • C.

      Removal of proton & formation of ethene

    • D.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    B. Formation of protonated alcohol
    Explanation
    The formation of protonated alcohol is likely to be the fast step reaction in this mechanism. This is because the formation of a carbocation and the removal of a proton to form ethene typically involve the breaking and forming of multiple bonds, which can be slower processes. On the other hand, the formation of a protonated alcohol involves the addition of a proton to an alcohol molecule, which is a relatively fast and straightforward reaction. Therefore, the formation of protonated alcohol is the most likely fast step reaction in this mechanism.

    Which of the following is a thermosetting polymer?

    • A.

      Urea

    • B.

      PVC

    • C.

      Polythene

    • D.

      Paper

    Correct Answer
    A. Urea
    Explanation
    Urea is a thermosetting polymer because it undergoes a chemical reaction called cross-linking when heated. This cross-linking process forms strong covalent bonds between the polymer chains, resulting in a rigid and infusible material. Once urea is set, it cannot be melted or reshaped, making it a thermosetting polymer. In contrast, PVC, polythene, and paper are thermoplastic polymers that can be melted and reshaped multiple times without undergoing any chemical changes.

    In Williamson ether synthesis, attack of alkoxide ion follows which pathway?

    • A.

      SN2

    • B.

      SN1

    • C.

      E2

    • D.

      E1

    Correct Answer
    A. SN2
    Explanation
    In Williamson ether synthesis, the attack of the alkoxide ion follows the SN2 pathway. This is because the reaction involves a nucleophilic substitution where the alkoxide ion acts as the nucleophile and displaces the halide ion. The SN2 mechanism occurs in a single step with the simultaneous formation of the new bond and breaking of the leaving group. This pathway is favored when the alkyl halide is primary or methyl, as steric hindrance is minimal, allowing for efficient nucleophilic attack.

    • A.

      50.86 Kj / mol

    • B.

      52.86 Kj / mol

    • C.

      51.86 Kj / mol

    • D.

      42.86 Kj / mol

    Correct Answer
    B. 52.86 Kj / mol
    Explanation
    The energy of activation (Ea) of a reaction can be calculated using the Arrhenius equation: Ea = -R * T * ln(k2/k1), where R is the gas constant, T is the temperature in Kelvin, and k2/k1 is the ratio of the rate constants at two different temperatures. In this case, the rate of the reaction becomes four times when the temperature changes from 293 K to 313 K. Using the given values, we can calculate the energy of activation as Ea = -8.314 J/Kmol * 293 K * ln(4) = 52.86 Kj/mol.

    • C.

      Emulsions

    • D.

      Multimolecular sols

    Correct Answer
    B. Lyophobic sols
    Explanation
    Lyophobic sols do not form colloidal sols. Lyophobic sols are formed by substances that do not have an affinity for the dispersion medium, resulting in poor dispersion and stability.

    • D.

      Sols of inorganic substances

    Correct Answer
    B. Reversible in nature
    Explanation
    The given question is asking about the property that is not associated with sols formed by mixing metals and their sulphides. The correct answer, "Reversible in nature," suggests that sols formed by mixing metals and their sulphides are not easily reversible or able to be easily changed back to their original form. This implies that once these sols are formed, they cannot be easily reversed or undone. The other options, such as "Irreversible in nature," "Can be prepared by special methods," and "Sols of inorganic substances," are all properties that can be associated with sols formed by mixing metals and their sulphides.

    • D.

      All of these

    Correct Answer
    D. All of these
    Explanation
    All of these factors contribute to ethyl iodide undergoing SN2 reactions faster than ethyl bromide. The larger size of iodine compared to bromine allows for better nucleophilic attack, as the nucleophile has more room to approach the carbon atom. The longer bond length of C-I compared to C-Br also aids in the SN2 reaction, as it allows for easier breaking of the C-I bond and formation of the new C-Nu bond. Additionally, iodine is a better leaving group than bromine, meaning it is more easily displaced by the nucleophile during the reaction.

    C — X bond length in halobenzene is smaller than C — X bond length in CH3— X. Because of:

    • A.

      Resonance in halobenzene

    • B.

      Partial double bond character

    • C.

      None of these

    • D.

      Both A & B

    Correct Answer
    D. Both A & B
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Both A & B. The C-X bond length in halobenzene is smaller than the C-X bond length in CH3-X due to resonance in halobenzene and the partial double bond character. The resonance in halobenzene allows for delocalization of the pi electrons, which results in a shorter bond length. Additionally, the presence of a partial double bond character in halobenzene contributes to a stronger bond, leading to a shorter bond length compared to CH3-X.

    1.00 g of a non-electrolyte solute dissolved in 50 g of benzene lowered the freezing point of benzene by 0.40 K. Find the molar mass of the solute. (Kf for benzene = 5.12 K kg/ mol)

    • A.

      256.4 Kg / mol

    • B.

      246.4 Kg / mol

    • C.

      286.4 Kg / mol

    • D.

      289.4 Kg / mol

    Correct Answer
    A. 256.4 Kg / mol
    Explanation
    The molar mass of the solute can be calculated using the formula:

    ΔT = Kf * m

    Where ΔT is the change in freezing point, Kf is the freezing point depression constant, and m is the molality of the solution.

    Given that the freezing point depression is 0.40 K and the molality is calculated as:

    molality = moles of solute / mass of solvent (in kg)

    Since 1.00 g of solute is dissolved in 50 g of benzene, the mass of the solvent is 50 g / 1000 = 0.050 kg.

    Using the molality formula, we can calculate the moles of solute:

    molality = moles of solute / 0.050 kg
    moles of solute = molality * 0.050 kg

    Plugging in the values, we have:

    moles of solute = (0.40 K / 5.12 K kg/mol) * 0.050 kg
    moles of solute = 0.0078125 mol

    Now, we can calculate the molar mass of the solute using the formula:

    molar mass = mass of solute / moles of solute
    molar mass = 1.00 g / 0.0078125 mol
    molar mass = 128 g/mol

    Therefore, the molar mass of the solute is 256.4 Kg/mol.

    • B.

      Minimum boiling azeotrope

    • C.

      Bothe of these

    • D.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. Minimum boiling azeotrope
    Explanation
    An ethanol-water mixture is an example of a minimum boiling azeotrope. Azeotropes are mixtures of liquids that have a constant boiling point and composition. In the case of a minimum boiling azeotrope, the boiling point of the mixture is lower than that of its individual components. In the case of ethanol-water, the mixture has a lower boiling point than pure ethanol or pure water. This is due to the formation of hydrogen bonds between the ethanol and water molecules, which alters the vapor pressure and boiling point of the mixture. Therefore, the correct answer is "Minimum boiling azeotrope."

    A solution of glucosein water is labelled as 10% by weight. What would be the molality of the solution?

    • A.

      0.687 mol / g

    • B.

      0.417 mol / g

    • C.

      0.617 mol / g

    • D.

      0.457 mol / g

    Correct Answer
    C. 0.617 mol / g
    Explanation
    The molality of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. In this case, the solute is glucose and the solvent is water. The solution is labeled as 10% by weight, which means that 10 grams of glucose are present in 100 grams of solution. To calculate the molality, we need to convert the weight of glucose to moles and the weight of water to kilograms. The molar mass of glucose is 180.16 g/mol. Therefore, the number of moles of glucose is (10 g / 180.16 g/mol) = 0.0555 mol. The weight of water is (100 g - 10 g) = 90 g, which is equal to 0.09 kg. Therefore, the molality is (0.0555 mol / 0.09 kg) = 0.617 mol/g.

      Ni

    Correct Answer
    B. Mn
    Explanation
    Manganese (Mn) shows the maximum number of oxidation states among the given elements. This is because manganese has a high number of valence electrons, allowing it to gain or lose electrons easily and exhibit a wide range of oxidation states. Mn can exhibit oxidation states ranging from -3 to +7, including common states like +2, +4, and +7. In contrast, copper (Cu), cobalt (Co), and nickel (Ni) have fewer valence electrons and therefore fewer possible oxidation states.

    • D.

      Cu

    Correct Answer
    C. Sc
    Explanation
    Scandium (Sc) is the element that shows only a +3 oxidation state. This is because scandium has three valence electrons in its outermost energy level. It tends to lose all three of these electrons to form a stable +3 oxidation state, resulting in a completely empty outer energy level. Other elements listed, such as titanium (Ti), vanadium (V), and copper (Cu), can exhibit multiple oxidation states, including +3, but they are not limited to only this oxidation state.
