NF3 has no vacant orbital neither in nitrogen nor in fluorine so it cannot accept the electron and hence, cannot acts as lewis acid and but for PCl5 P has no L.P & hence it cannot acts as a base but ClF3 (3 B.P + 2 L.P) & SF4 (4 B.P + 1 L.P)

Section-B

Question 21. A certain orbital has n = 4 and ml = –3. The number of radial nodes in this orbital is ____.(Round off to the Nearest Integer).


Answer: 0

Number of radial nodes = n – l– 1

n = 4, ml =–3 so l =3

radial nodes = 4 – 3 – 1 = 0

Question 22. 15 mL of an aqueous solution of Fe2+ in the acidic medium completely reacted with 20 mL of 0.03 M aqueous Cr 2O72-. The molarity of the Fe2+ solution is _____× 10–2M.(Round off to the Nearest Integer).


Answer: 24

By law of equivalence Meq of Fe2+ = Meq of Cr 2O72-

M × 15 × 1 = 0.03 × 6 × 20

M = 0.24 M = 24 × 10–2 M

Question 23. The reaction of white phosphorus on boiling with alkali in an inert atmosphere resulted in the formation of product ‘A’. The reaction of 1 mol of ‘A’ with an excess of AgNO3 in an aqueous medium gives _______ mol(s) of Ag. (Round off to the Nearest Integer).

JEE Main 2021 March 17th Shift-1 Chemistry Paper Question 23 solution

So, the final reaction along with the stoichiometric coefficient is.

8AgNO3 + PH3 + 4H2O 8Ag + H3PO4 + 8HNO3

Excess 1 mol

Hence, 1 mol produce 8 mol Ag

Question 24. The oxygen dissolved in water exerts a partial pressure of 20 kPa in the vapour above water. The molar solubility of oxygen in water is _____ × 10–5 mol dm–3.
(Round off to the Nearest Integer).

[Given : Henry’s law constant = KH = 8.0 × 104 kPa for O2. Density of water with dissolved oxygen = 1.0 kg dm–3 ]


Answer: 25

P(g) = [KH]X

20 × 103 = [8.0 × 103 × 104] × Solubility

Solubility =

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{20\times 10^{3}}{8.0\times 10^{7}}\end{array} \)

Solubility = 25 × 10–5 mol/dm3

Question 25. The standard enthalpies of formation of Al2O3 and CaO are –1675 kJ mol–1 and –635 kJ mol–1 respectively. For the reaction 3CaO + 2Al → 3Ca + Al2O3 the standard reaction enthalpy ΔrH0=______ kJ. (Round off to the Nearest Integer)


Answer: 230

ΔrH0f = ΔrH0f (Products) – ΔrH0f (Reactants)

= ΔrH0f(Al2O3)–3×ΔrH0f(CaO)

= – 1675 –3 (–635)

= 230 kJ

Question 26. For a certain first-order reaction 32% of the reactant is left after 570s. The rate constant of this reaction is _______ × 10–3 s –1. (Round off to the Nearest Integer).
[Given: log102 = 0.301, ln10 = 2.303]


Answer: 2

k = 1/t ln a / [a-x]

k = 2.303 / 570 log 100 / 32

k = 2.303 / 570 × 0.5

k = 2 × 10-3 s-1

Question 27. The pressure exerted by a non-reactive gaseous mixture of 6.4 g of methane and 8.8 g of carbon dioxide in a 10 L vessel at 27°C is _____ kPa. (Round off to the Nearest Integer). [Assume gases are ideal, R = 8.314 J mol–1 K –1 Atomic masses: C : 12.0u, H : 1.0u, O : 16.0 u]


Answer: 150

V = 10 L, T = 27° C = 300 K

(m)methane = 6.4 g, CO2 (m) = 8.8 g

PV = ntotalRT

P × 10–2 = (0.4 + 0.2) × 8.314 × 300

P = 149652 Pa ⇒ P = 149.652 kPa ≈ 150 kPa

Question 28. The mole fraction of a solute in a 100 molal aqueous solution is _____ × 10–2 . (Round off to the Nearest Integer). [Given : Atomic masses : H : 1.0 u, O : 16.0 u]


Answer: 64

Let weight of H2O = 1000 g

Moles of solute = 100

(mole)H2O = 1000/18

Mole fraction of solute =

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{mole\: of\: solute}{Total\: moles} = \frac{1800}{2800}\end{array} \)

Xsolute = 64 × 10-2

JEE Main 2021 March 17th Shift-1 Chemistry Paper Question 29

Answer: 80

Moles of C6H6 = 3.9/78 = 0.05 mol

Moles of C6H5NO2 = 4.92/123 = 0.04 mol

By conserving moles of carbon, mole of C6H5 NO2 Formed theoretically are 0.05 mol

%yield =

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{moles\: formed\: actually}{moles\: formed\: theoretically} = \frac{1800}{2800}\times 100\end{array} \)

%yield =

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{0.04}{0.05}\times 100 = 80%\end{array} \)

Answer: 2

JEE Main 2021 March 17th Shift-1 Chemistry Paper Question 30

\(\begin{array}{l}K_{a}\frac{[H^{+}][A^{-}]}{[HA]}\end{array} \)

\(\begin{array}{l}2\times 10^{-6}=\frac{[0.1][0.01\alpha ]}{[0.01]}\end{array} \)

α = 2 × 10–5
