Q2.The strength of a reductant/oxidant in redox systems can be determined
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution:
Because a redox indicator (also called an oxidation-reduction indicator) is an indicator which undergoes a definite color change at a specific electrode potential.
Q3.In the case of compounds such as CH3CH2Cl, CH3NO2 etc which of the following term is used as bond enthalpy.
Answer : Option DExplaination / Solution:
For polyatomic molecules the term mean bond enthalpy is used for the enthalpy changes associated with chemical bonds.
Q5.According to quantum theoretical model of an atom each orbital is designated by three quantum numbers labelled as n, l and ml. These are referred to respectively as
Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution:
Quantum numbers designate specific shells, subshells, orbitals, and spins of electrons. This means that they describe completely the characteristics of an electron in an atom, i.e., they describe each unique solution to the Schrödinger equation, or the wave function, of electrons in an atom.
There are a total of four quantum numbers: the principal quantum number (n), the orbital angular momentum quantum number (l), the magnetic quantum number (ml), and the electron spin quantum number (ms). The principal quantum number, nn , describes the energy of an electron and the most probable distance of the electron from the nucleus. In other words, it refers to the size of the orbital and the energy level an electron is placed in. The number of subshells, or ll , describes the shape of the orbital. It can also be used to determine the number of angular nodes.
The magnetic quantum number, ml, describes the energy levels in a subshell, and ms refers to the spin on the electron, which can either be up or down.
Q6.Deforestation and burning of fossil fuels adds to the environmental pollution by :
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution: Deforestation and burning of fossil fuels adds to the environmental pollution As it increases the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere which traps excessive heat and increases global temperature causing global warming.
Answer : Option BExplaination / Solution:
Hydrides are formed by many d-block and f-block elements when heated with hydrogen under pressure. The hydrides tend to be non-stoichiometric and they may be of variable composition.These hydrides have properties similar to those of parent metal and hence are known as metallic hydride.
Q9.the valence shell electron pair repulsion (vsepr) theory helps in the
Answer : Option AExplaination / Solution:
Valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory is a model used in chemistry to predict the geometry of individual molecules from the number of electron pairs surrounding their central atoms. It is also named the Gillespie-Nyholm theory after its two main developers.
The molecular formula C3H8O represents two alcohols: propan-1-ol and propan-2-ol. This property is called as:
Answer : Option DExplaination / Solution:
propan-1-ol and propan-2-ol are positional isomers as they differ only in the position of functional group -OH.
Positional isomers are isomers that have the same carbon skeleton and the same functional groups but differ from each other in the location of the functional groups on or in the carbon chain.
