  3. Ozone is a powerful oxidising agent because it can easily decompose to give an atom of nascent oxygen which is more reactive than O2; O3 → O2 + [O]

(ii) (1)

ISC Class 12 Chemistry Question Paper Solution 2019-13

(2)

ISC Class 12 Chemistry Question Paper Solution 2019-14

(b) (i)

  1. Interhalogen compounds X –Xʹ are more reactive than halogens X – X because X – Xʹ bonds are weaker than X – X bonds.
  2. Bond energy of S-S bond is greater than O-O bond. Due to the small size of oxygen atom, it has greater lp-bp repulsion hence O-O bond is weaker than S-S bond. Therefore, sulphur shows the property of catenation.
  3. PH3 does not form intermolecular H-bonds due to large atomic size of Phosphorous while NH3 forms intermolecular H-bonds with water hence it becomes soluble.

(ii)
