Answer: 27

For elementary reaction,

Rate of reaction = K[A]2 [B2]

Initial rate =

\(\begin{array}{l}K\left ( \frac{n_{A}}{v_{o}} \right )^{2}\left ( \frac{n_{B}}{v_{o}} \right )\end{array} \)

Final rate =

\(\begin{array}{l}K\left ( \frac{n_{A}}{v_{o}/3} \right )^{2}\left ( \frac{n_{B}}{v_{o}/3} \right ) = 27K\left ( \frac{n_{A}}{v_{o}} \right )\left ( \frac{n_{B}}{v_{o}} \right )\end{array} \)

Final rate = 27 × Initial rate

Answer: 49

Fe: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d6 4s2

In 3d6, no. of unpaired e = 4

Spin only magnetic moment = √n(n+2) BM

= √4(4+2)

= √24

= 4.9

= 49 × 10–1

Answer: 354

KP = KC (RT)∆ng, ∆ng= 1 (for given reaction)

600.1 = 20.4 (RT)1

T ≈ 354 K

Question 26. A KCl solution of conductivity 0.14 S m-1 shows a resistance of 4.19 Ω in a conductivity cell. If the same cell is filled with an HCl solution, the resistance drops 1.03 Ω. The conductivity of the HCl solution is ……………….. x 10-2 S m-1. (Round off to the Nearest Integer).


Answer: 56

For KCl solution,

\(\begin{array}{l}R = \left (\frac{1}{K} \right )\left (\frac{l}{A} \right ) \Rightarrow \frac{l}{A} = R \times K = 4.19\times0.14\end{array} \)

= 0.58 ohm

For HCl solution,

\(\begin{array}{l}R = \left (\frac{1}{K} \right )\left (\frac{l}{A} \right )\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}K = \left (\frac{l/A}{R} \right ) = \frac{0.58}{1.03}=0.56=56\times 10^{-2} \: Sm^{-1}\end{array} \)

= 56

Answer: 85

Since boiling point is the same, elevation in boiling point is also the same for both solutions.

\(\begin{array}{l}(\Delta T_{B})_{K_{4}[Fe(CN)_{6}]} = (\Delta T_{B})_{A}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}(ik_{B}m)_{K_{4}[Fe(CN)_{6}]} = (ik_{B}m)_{A}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}(1+4\alpha)\times 1 = \frac{1\times \frac{18.1}{M}\times 1000}{100-18.1}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}2.6 = \frac{18.1}{M}\times \frac{1000}{81.9}\end{array} \)

M = 85

Question 28. The number of chlorine atoms in 20 mL of chlorine gas at STP is ………1021. (Round off to the Nearest Integer).

[Assume chlorine is an ideal gas at STP

R=0.083 L bar mol-1 K-1, NA = 6.023 x 1023]


Answer: 1

\(\begin{array}{l}n = \frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{1\times20 \times10^{-3} }{0.083\times 273}\end{array} \)
\(\begin{array}{l}Number\: of\: atoms = \frac{1\times20 \times10^{-3} }{0.083\times 273} \times2 \times6.023 \times10^{23}\end{array} \)

= 1.06 × 1021

Question 29. KBr is doped with 10-5 mole per cent of SrBr2. The number of cationic vacancies in 1 g of KBr crystal is ……… 1014. (Round off to the Nearest Integer).

[Atomic Mass: K = 39.1 u, Br = 79.9 u, NA = 6.023 x 1023]


Answer: 5

For every Sr+2 ion, 1 cationic vacancy is created. Hence, no. of Sr+2 ion = Number of cationic vacancies

Since the mole percentage of SrBr2 dopped is 10–5 to that of total moles of KBr.

Hence,

No. of cationic vacancy =

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{10^{-5}}{100}\times \frac{1}{119}\times N_{A}\end{array} \)

=

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{1}{119}\times10^{-7} \times6.022 \times 10^{23}\end{array} \)

= 5 × 10–2 × 10–7 × 1023

= 5 × 1014

= 5
