Answer: 9

According to the tabulated data,

Element with Atomic number (n+2), should be an alkali metal

As we see, first ionization enthalpy (I1) is very less but second ionization enthalpy (I2) is very large.

Hence, atomic number can be = 11

That is, (n + 2) = 11

n = 9

Note: ‘n’ can’t be ‘1’.

Question 5: The structure of a peptide is given below.

Solved JEE Advanced 2020 Chemistry Paper

If the absolute values of the net charge of the peptide at pH = 2, pH = 6, and pH = 11 are |𝑧1|, |𝑧2|, and |𝑧3|, respectively, then what is |𝑧1| + |𝑧2| + |𝑧3|?


Answer: 5

(i) At pH = 2 (Highly acidic)

In highly acidic medium, the given tripeptide exists as cationic form.

JEE Advanced 2020 Chemistry Solved Paper

Net charge +2

|Z1| = 2 at pH = 2

(ii)At pH = 6 (neutral solution)

In neutral medium, the given tripeptide exists as Zwitter ion.

JEE Advanced 2020 Chemistry Papers

net charge = 0

|Z2| = 0 at pH = 6

(iii)At pH = 11 (basic medium)

In basic medium the given tripeptide exists in anionic form.

JEE Advanced 2020 Chemistry Paper 2

Net charge = –3

|Z3| = 3

Therefore, |Z1| + |Z2| + |Z3| = 2 + 0 + 3 = 5

Question 6: An organic compound (C8H10O2) rotates plane-polarized light. It produces pink color with neutral FeCl3 solution. What is the total number of all the possible isomers for this compound?


Answer: 6

DBE (Double bond equivalent) of C8H10O2 is

= Number of carbon atoms – (Number of monovalent atoms)/2 + 1

= 8 – 10/2 + 1 = 4

It gives pink colour with neutral FeCl3 solution. It means phenolic group should be present in the compound.

Note: C* represent chiral carbon. So it will have (d and l) optically active isomers.

JEE Advanced 2020 Chemistry Paper 2 Solution

Total optically active isomer = 6

Question 7: In an experiment, m grams of a compound X (gas/liquid/solid) taken in a container is loaded in a balance as shown in figure I below. In the presence of a magnetic field, the pan with X is either deflected upwards (figure II), or deflected downwards (figure III), depending on the compound X. Identify the correct statement(s).

JEE Advanced 2020 Chemistry Paper 2 Solutions


a) If X is H2O(l), deflection of the panis upwards.
b) If X is K4[Fe(CN)6](𝑠), deflection of the panis upwards.
c) If X is O2 (𝑔), deflection of the panis downwards.
d) If X is C6H6(l), deflection of the panis downwards.

Answer: A, B, C

Paramagnetic substances are attracted by magnetic fields & diamagnetic substances are repelled by magnetic field.

O2 – is paramagnetic

H2O & C6H6(l) – are Diamagnetic

& K4[Fe(CN)6] is also Diamagnetic

a) x = H2O &rarr; Diamagnetic

b) x = K4[Fe(CN)6] &rarr; Diamagnetic

Here, Fe+2 strong field ligand.

&rarr; 3d6 &rArr; [t2g6, eg0]

c) x = O2 &rarr; Paramagnetic

Here, O2(g) is paramagnetic due to two unpaired electrons present in pi* (antibonding orbitals)

d) x = C6H6 (l) &rarr; diamagnetic (incorrect)

It is due to presence of 0 unpaired electrons.

b) Addition of Na3AlF6 lowers the melting point of alumina.
c) CO2 is evolved at the anode during electrolysis.
d) The cathode is a steel vessel with a lining of carbon.

Answer: A, B, C, D

Refer topic metallurgy

Refer topic metallurgy

a)Extraction of aluminium (Hall’s process and Hall Heroult’s electrolytic cell):

The process involved in extraction of aluminium is Hall Heroult’s process.

During process, Al2O3 is obtained as precipitate.

When CO3 is bubbled through a solution of sodium aluminate.

The reaction is given as:

2Na[Al(OH)4](aq.) + CO2 &rarr; Na2CO3 + H2O + 2Al(OH)3 (&darr;) or Al2O3.2H2O (ppt)

Refer topic metallurgy

b) Electrolytic reduction of pure alumina takes place in steel box with lining of carbon (cathode) with cryolite (Na3AlF6) and fluorspar (CaF2) which lowers the melting point and increases the conductivity of electrolyte.

Refer topic metallurgy

c) Electrolysis process in Hall’s process:

Graphite rods acts as anode:

At cathode:

Al+3 + 3e &rarr; Al

At anode: The oxygen liberated at anode reacts with the carbon of anode to produce CO and CO2.

C + O2– &rarr; CO + 2e

C + 2O2– &rarr; CO2 + 4e

Refer topic metallurgy

d)Here the cathode is a steel vessel with a lining of carbon.

Question 10: Choose the correct statement(s) among the following.


a) SnCl2.2H2O is a reducing agent.
b) SnO2 reacts with KOH to form K2[Sn(OH)6].
c) A solution of PbCl2 in HCl contains Pb2+and Clions.
d) The reaction of Pb3O4 with hot dilute nitric acid to give PbO2 is a redox reaction.

Answer: A, B

a)SnCl2.2H2O is a reducing agent since Sn2+ tends to convert into Sn4+

SnO2 + KOH &rarr; K2SnO3 + H2O

or

Amphoteric K2[Sn(OH)6]

b)First group cations (Pb2+) form insoluble chloride with HCl that is PbCl2 however it is slightly soluble in water and therefore lead +2 ion is never completely precipitated on adding hydrochloric acid in test sample of Pb2+, rest of the Pb2+ ions are quantitatively precipitated with H2S in acidic medium.

So that we can say that filtrate of first group contain solution of PbCl2 in HCl which contains Pb2+and Cl.

However, in the presence of conc. HCl or excess HCl it can produce H2[PbCl4].

So, we can conclude A, B or A,B,C should be answers

PbCl2 + HCl → H2 [PbCl4]

Pb3O4 + HNO3 → PbO2 + Pb(NO3)2 + H2O

or

2PbO.PbO2 (Non redox reaction)

Question 11: Consider the following four compounds I, II, III, and IV.

JEE Advanced 2020 Chemistry Paper 2 Solution 11

Choose the correct statement(s).


a) The order of basicity is II >I >III >IV.
b) The magnitude of pKb difference between I and II is more than that between III and IV.
c) Resonance effect is more in III than in IV.
d) Steric effect makes compound IV more basic than III.

Answer: C, D

a)Correct basic strength order of given compound is

(IV) > (II) > (I) > (III)

b) Compound IV is a stronger base than III due to SIR effect, which basic strength difference between I & II is very less.

c) In compound IV due to SIR (steric inhibition due to resonance) effect both –NO2 and N(CH3)2 group will be out of plane hence resonance effect in compound IV is less.

Answer: –5242.42

P. E of 2 H-atoms

Total eng = P.E./2

Potential Energy = 2 Total Energy

E = -13.6 x z2/n2 ev/atom

= –2 x 13.6 x z2/n2 ev/atom + (–2 x 13.6 x z2/n2) ev/ atom

= – 2x 2 x 13.6 x 1 x ev/atom

= – 4 x 13.6 x 1.6 x 10–19 J/atom × 6.023 × 1023 atom/mole

= – 4 × 13.6 × 1.6 × 6.023×104 J/mole

Question 16: Consider the reaction sequence from P to Q shown below. The overall yield of the major product Q from P is 75%. What is the amount in grams of Q obtained from 9.3 mL of P? (Use density of P = 1.00 g mL−1; Molar mass of C = 12.0, H =1.0, O =16.0 and N = 14.0 g mol−1)

Solutions for Chemistry JEE Advanced Paper 2


Answer: 18.6

Solved Chemistry 2020 JEE Advanced Paper 2

Molecular weight of aniline (C6H5NH2) = 77 + 14 + 2 = 93

Density of P = 1 gm ml–1

d = m/v

or m = dv

Mass of P = 9.3 × 1 = 9.3 g

9.3 ml of P = 9.3 gm

P = of P

Solutions for Chemistry 2020 JEE Advanced Paper 2

= 1:1:1

So,the mole of Q formed will be 0.1 mole and extent of reaction is 100% but if it is 75% yield.

Then amount of Q = 0.1 x 75/100 = 0.075 mol

The molecular formula of Q = C16H12ON2

So, M. wt. of Q = 16 x 12 + 12 x 1 + 16 + 2 x 14

= 192 + 12 + 16 + 28

= 248 gm / mol

So, amount of Q = 248 x 0.075= 18.6 gm

Question 17: Tin is obtained from cassiterite by reduction with coke. Use the data given below to determine the minimum temperature (in K) at which the reduction of cassiterite by coke would take place.

At 298 K: ∆𝑓𝐻0(SnO2(𝑠)) = −581.0 kJ mol−1, ∆𝑓𝐻0(CO2(g)) = −394.0 kJ mol−1,

𝑆0(SnO2(s)) = 56.0J K−1mol−1, 𝑆0(Sn(s)) = 52.0 J K−1mol−1,

𝑆0(C(𝑠)) = 6.0J K−1mol−1, 𝑆0(CO2(g)) = 210.0 J K−1mol−1.

Assume that the enthalpies and the entropies are temperature independent.


Answer: 935

SnO2 (s) + C(s) &rarr; CO2 + Sn

&Delta;H = (&Delta;f H)P – (&Delta;f H)R

= – 394 + 581

= + 187 KJ/mol

&Delta;S = (&Delta; S)P – (&Delta; S)R

= 210 + 52 – 56 – 6

= 200 J/k mol

&Delta; G = 187 × 1000 – 200 × T

T = [187×1000]/200 = 935 K
