The mass of hydrogen (in grams) present in $1.0 \text{ L}$ of pure water of density $1.0 \text{ g cm}^{-3}$ is
A
$1.11 \times 10^2$
B
$5.55 \times 10^2$
C
$2.22 \times 10^2$
D
$3.33 \times 10^2$

Solution

(A) Density of water = $1.0 \text{ g cm}^{-3}$.
Volume of water = $1.0 \text{ L} = 1000 \text{ mL}$.
Mass of $1.0 \text{ L}$ of water = $1000 \text{ mL} \times 1.0 \text{ g mL}^{-1} = 1000 \text{ g}$.
Molar mass of $H_2O = (2 \times 1.008) + 16.00 = 18.016 \text{ g mol}^{-1} \approx 18 \text{ g mol}^{-1}$.
In $18 \text{ g}$ of $H_2O$,the mass of hydrogen is $2 \text{ g}$.
Therefore,the mass of hydrogen in $1000 \text{ g}$ of $H_2O = (2 \text{ g} / 18 \text{ g}) \times 1000 \text{ g} = 111.11 \text{ g}$.
This is equal to $1.11 \times 10^2 \text{ g}$.

Solution

(D) Molecular mass of $C_{57}H_{110}O_6 = (12 \times 57) + (110 \times 1) + (6 \times 16) = 684 + 110 + 96 = 890$.
Mass $\%$ of $C = \frac{\text{Mass of } C}{\text{Molecular mass of compound}} \times 100 = \frac{684}{890} \times 100 = 76.85 \%$

$Na_3PO_3$

Solution

(C) The chemical formula of Calgon is $Na_2[Na_4(PO_3)_6]$.
Calgon is the trade name for sodium hexametaphosphate,which has the molecular formula $(NaPO_3)_6$.
An empirical formula represents the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms of each element in a compound.
For $(NaPO_3)_6$,the ratio of $Na:P:O$ is $6:6:18$,which simplifies to $1:1:3$.
Therefore,the empirical formula is $NaPO_3$.

How many grams of $Mg$ is required to completely reduce $100 \ mL$ of $0.1 \ M$ $NO_3^{-}$ solution using the following reaction:
$NO_3^{-} + Mg \longrightarrow Mg^{2+} + NH_3$
A
$0.96$
B
$0.62$
C
$0.24$
D
$0.75$

Solution

(A) The balanced redox reaction is:
$NO_3^{-} + 4Mg + 10H^{+} \longrightarrow 4Mg^{2+} + NH_4^{+} + 3H_2O$ (or similar reduction to $NH_3$ in basic medium).
In the reduction of $NO_3^{-}$ to $NH_3$,the oxidation state of $N$ changes from $+5$ to $-3$,so the $n$-factor for $NO_3^{-}$ is $8$.
The oxidation of $Mg$ from $0$ to $+2$ gives an $n$-factor of $2$.
According to the Law of Equivalents:
$Eq. \text{ of } NO_3^{-} = Eq. \text{ of } Mg$
$(n\text{-factor}) \times M \times V(L) = (n\text{-factor}) \times \frac{\text{Mass of } Mg}{\text{Molar mass of } Mg}$
$8 \times 0.1 \times 0.1 = 2 \times \frac{\text{Mass}}{24}$
$0.8 = \frac{\text{Mass}}{12}$
$\text{Mass} = 0.8 \times 1.2 = 0.96 \ g$

$A$ reaction gas mixture contains $50 \%$,$30 \%$,and $20 \%$ of $A$,$B$,and $C$ by volume,respectively. The mixture undergoes the following reactions:
$1. A + 2B \rightarrow P_1$
$2. 4P_1 + 3C \rightarrow P_2$
$P_1$ and $P_2$ are two products of the reactions. Choose the correct answer if the reaction completes.
A
$C$ will be completely exhausted.
B
$A$ will be completely exhausted.
C
$B$ will not be completely exhausted.
D
$P_1$ will be completely exhausted.

Solution

(D) Assume $100 \text{ moles}$ of the mixture. Then,$n_A = 50 \text{ mol}$,$n_B = 30 \text{ mol}$,and $n_C = 20 \text{ mol}$.
In reaction $1$: $A + 2B \rightarrow P_1$.
For $50 \text{ mol}$ of $A$,we need $100 \text{ mol}$ of $B$. Since we only have $30 \text{ mol}$ of $B$,$B$ is the limiting reagent.
$30 \text{ mol}$ of $B$ will react with $15 \text{ mol}$ of $A$ to produce $15 \text{ mol}$ of $P_1$.
Remaining $A = 50 - 15 = 35 \text{ mol}$.
In reaction $2$: $4P_1 + 3C \rightarrow P_2$.
We have $15 \text{ mol}$ of $P_1$ and $20 \text{ mol}$ of $C$.
For $15 \text{ mol}$ of $P_1$,the required amount of $C$ is $\frac{3}{4} \times 15 = 11.25 \text{ mol}$.
Since we have $20 \text{ mol}$ of $C$,$P_1$ is the limiting reagent in the second reaction.
$15 \text{ mol}$ of $P_1$ will react with $11.25 \text{ mol}$ of $C$ to produce $P_2$.
Remaining $C = 20 - 11.25 = 8.75 \text{ mol}$.
Remaining $A = 35 \text{ mol}$.
Since $P_1$ is completely consumed in the second reaction,$P_1$ will be completely exhausted.

The ratio of the rate of diffusion of $SO_2$ to $CH_4$ is
A
$1: 1$
B
$1: 2$
C
$2: 1$
D
$4: 1$

Solution

(B) According to Graham's Law of diffusion,the rate of diffusion $(r)$ is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass $(M)$ of the gas: $r \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{M}}$.
The molar mass of $SO_2$ is $32 + (16 \times 2) = 64 \ g/mol$.
The molar mass of $CH_4$ is $12 + (1 \times 4) = 16 \ g/mol$.
Therefore,the ratio of the rate of diffusion of $SO_2$ to $CH_4$ is:
$\frac{r_{SO_2}}{r_{CH_4}} = \sqrt{\frac{M_{CH_4}}{M_{SO_2}}} = \sqrt{\frac{16}{64}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} = \frac{1}{2}$.
Thus,the ratio is $1: 2$.

$20 \ mL$ of gas $A$ and $10 \ mL$ of gas $B$ diffuse through a porous membrane separately in $1 \ minute$. If the vapour density of $B$ is $x$,what is the vapour density of $A$?
A
$2x$
B
$4x$
C
$\frac{x}{4}$
D
$\frac{x}{2}$

Solution

(C) According to Graham's Law of Diffusion,the rate of diffusion $r$ is inversely proportional to the square root of the vapour density $(VD)$:
$r \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{VD}}$
Therefore,$\frac{r_A}{r_B} = \sqrt{\frac{VD_B}{VD_A}}$
Given that $r_A = \frac{20 \ mL}{1 \ min} = 20 \ mL/min$ and $r_B = \frac{10 \ mL}{1 \ min} = 10 \ mL/min$.
Substituting the values:
$\frac{20}{10} = \sqrt{\frac{x}{VD_A}}$
$2 = \sqrt{\frac{x}{VD_A}}$
Squaring both sides:
$4 = \frac{x}{VD_A}$
$VD_A = \frac{x}{4}$

From the following plots,find the correct option.
Question diagram
A
$T_1 > T_2 ; P_1 > P_2$
B
$T_1 > T_2 ; P_2 > P_1$
C
$T_2 > T_1 ; P_2 > P_1$
D
$T_2 > T_1 ; P_1 > P_2$

Solution

(C) For the $P-V$ graph,draw a line parallel to the $V$-axis (constant $P$). At a constant pressure,the volume $V$ is directly proportional to the temperature $T$ $(V \propto T)$. Since the curve for $T_2$ is at a higher volume than $T_1$ for the same pressure,we have $T_2 > T_1$.
For the $V-T$ graph,the equation is $V = (\frac{nR}{P})T$. The slope of the line is $\frac{nR}{P}$,which is inversely proportional to the pressure $P$. Since the slope of the line for $P_1$ is smaller than the slope of the line for $P_2$,it follows that $P_1 > P_2$.

What is the density of one mole of $He$ (molar mass $= 4 \ g \ mol^{-1}$) at $300 \ K$ and a pressure of $0.82 \ atm$? $(R = 0.082 \ L \ atm \ mol^{-1} \ K^{-1})$
A
$1.33 \times 10^{-2} \ g \ mL^{-1}$
B
$1.33 \times 10^{-2} \ g \ L^{-1}$
C
$1.33 \times 10^{-1} \ g \ L^{-1}$
D
$1.33 \times 10^{-1} \ g \ mL^{-1}$

Solution

(C) From the ideal gas equation,$PV = nRT$.
Since $n = \frac{m}{M}$,we have $PV = \frac{m}{M} RT$.
Rearranging for density $d = \frac{m}{V}$,we get $d = \frac{PM}{RT}$.
Given: $P = 0.82 \ atm$,$M = 4 \ g \ mol^{-1}$,$R = 0.082 \ L \ atm \ mol^{-1} \ K^{-1}$,and $T = 300 \ K$.
Substituting the values: $d = \frac{0.82 \times 4}{0.082 \times 300} = \frac{4}{30} = 0.1333 \ g \ L^{-1} = 1.33 \times 10^{-1} \ g \ L^{-1}$.

The ratio of rates of diffusion of helium $(He)$ to hydrogen $(H_2)$.
A
$1 : \sqrt{2}$
B
$1 : 2$
C
$1 : 4$
D
$1 : 1.229$

Solution

(A) According to Graham's Law of diffusion,the rate of diffusion $(r)$ is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass $(M)$: $r \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{M}}$.
Molecular mass of $H_2$ $(M_{H_2})$ = $2 \ g/mol$.
Molecular mass of $He$ $(M_{He})$ = $4 \ g/mol$.
$\frac{r_{He}}{r_{H_2}} = \sqrt{\frac{M_{H_2}}{M_{He}}} = \sqrt{\frac{2}{4}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$.
Therefore,the ratio is $1 : \sqrt{2}$.

The density of methane is maximum under which conditions?
A
$0^{\circ} C$,$2 \ bar$
B
$273^{\circ} C$,$1 \ bar$
C
$273^{\circ} C$,$2 \ bar$
D
$0^{\circ} C$,$3 \ bar$

Solution

(D) The density $(d)$ of an ideal gas is given by the formula $d = \frac{PM}{RT}$,where $P$ is pressure,$M$ is molar mass,$R$ is the gas constant,and $T$ is temperature in Kelvin.
From this relation,$d \propto \frac{P}{T}$.
To maximize density,we need the highest pressure $(P)$ and the lowest temperature $(T)$.
Comparing the options:
$A$: $T = 273 \ K, P = 2 \ bar \implies \frac{P}{T} = \frac{2}{273} \approx 0.0073$
$B$: $T = 546 \ K, P = 1 \ bar \implies \frac{P}{T} = \frac{1}{546} \approx 0.0018$
$C$: $T = 546 \ K, P = 2 \ bar \implies \frac{P}{T} = \frac{2}{546} \approx 0.0036$
$D$: $T = 273 \ K, P = 3 \ bar \implies \frac{P}{T} = \frac{3}{273} \approx 0.0109$
Thus,the density is maximum at $0^{\circ} C$ and $3 \ bar$.

$300 \ mL$ of a gas '$x$' of molar mass $32 \ g \ mol^{-1}$ is effused in $25 \ s$. What volume of methane would effuse in the same time (in $mL$)?
A
$624$
B
$524$
C
$32$
D
$424$

Solution

(D) According to Graham's Law of diffusion,the rate of effusion $(r)$ is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass $(M)$: $r \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{M}}$.
Since the time taken is the same for both gases,the ratio of the rates of effusion is equal to the ratio of the volumes effused $(V)$: $\frac{r_x}{r_{CH_4}} = \frac{V_x}{V_{CH_4}}$.
Therefore,$\frac{V_x}{V_{CH_4}} = \sqrt{\frac{M_{CH_4}}{M_x}}$.
Given: $V_x = 300 \ mL$,$M_x = 32 \ g \ mol^{-1}$,$M_{CH_4} = 16 \ g \ mol^{-1}$.
Substituting the values: $\frac{300}{V_{CH_4}} = \sqrt{\frac{16}{32}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{1}{1.414}$.
$V_{CH_4} = 300 \times 1.414 = 424.26 \ mL \approx 424 \ mL$.

Find the false statement for ideal gases.
A
Kinetic energy of $1 \ mol$ of gas depends on mass of the gas molecule.
B
Kinetic energy increases with increase in temperature.
C
Kinetic energy of $1 \ g$ of $H_2$ is higher than that of $8 \ g$ of $O_2$ at the same temperature.
D
At a given temperature,kinetic energy does not depend on the pressure of the gas.

Solution

(A) The average kinetic energy of an ideal gas is given by $K.E. = \frac{3}{2} nRT$ for $n$ moles of gas.
For $1 \ mol$ of any ideal gas,$K.E. = \frac{3}{2} RT$.
This shows that the kinetic energy of $1 \ mol$ of an ideal gas depends only on the temperature $T$ and is independent of the nature of the gas (mass of the molecule).
Therefore,the statement that kinetic energy depends on the mass of the gas molecule is false.

If two gases $CH_4$ and $SO_2$ are allowed to enter from the two ends of a $1 \ km$ long vacuum tube at the same time,where will the gases meet from the $CH_4$ end (in $m$)?
A
$500$
B
$620$
C
$667$
D
$720$

Solution

(C) According to Graham's Law of Diffusion,the rate of diffusion $r$ is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass $M$: $r \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{M}}$.
Let $d_1$ be the distance traveled by $CH_4$ and $d_2$ be the distance traveled by $SO_2$.
Since they start at the same time and meet at time $t$,the ratio of distances is equal to the ratio of their rates of diffusion: $\frac{d_1}{d_2} = \frac{r_{CH_4}}{r_{SO_2}} = \sqrt{\frac{M_{SO_2}}{M_{CH_4}}}$.
Given $M_{CH_4} = 16 \ g/mol$ and $M_{SO_2} = 64 \ g/mol$.
$\frac{d_1}{d_2} = \sqrt{\frac{64}{16}} = \sqrt{4} = 2$.
So,$d_1 = 2d_2$.
Since the total length is $1 \ km = 1000 \ m$,$d_1 + d_2 = 1000$.
Substituting $d_2 = \frac{d_1}{2}$,we get $d_1 + \frac{d_1}{2} = 1000$.
$\frac{3d_1}{2} = 1000 \implies d_1 = \frac{2000}{3} \approx 667 \ m$.

A
$7.38$
B
$4.92$
C
$3.0$
D
$9.84$

Solution

(A) The chemical equation for the decomposition of sodium azide is: $2 NaN_{3(s)} \rightarrow 2 Na_{(s)} + 3 N_{2(g)}$.
Given mass of $NaN_3 = 130 \ g$. Molar mass of $NaN_3 = 23 + (3 \times 14) = 65 \ g \ mol^{-1}$.
Number of moles of $NaN_3 = \frac{130 \ g}{65 \ g \ mol^{-1}} = 2 \ mol$.
According to the stoichiometry,$2 \ mol$ of $NaN_3$ produces $3 \ mol$ of $N_2$ gas.
Using the ideal gas equation $PV = nRT$,where $n = 3 \ mol$,$V = 10 \ L$,$T = 300 \ K$,and $R = 0.082 \ L \ atm \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1}$:
$P = \frac{nRT}{V} = \frac{3 \times 0.082 \times 300}{10} = \frac{73.8}{10} = 7.38 \ atm$.

Among the gases $a$,$b$,$c$,$d$,$e$ and $f$,the gases that show only positive deviation from ideal behavior at all pressures in the graph are
Question diagram
A
$a$,$b$,$c$ only
B
$b$,$c$ only
C
$d$,$e$ only
D
$d$,$e$,$f$ only

Solution

(A) In the graph of compressibility factor $Z$ versus pressure $P$,a positive deviation from ideal behavior occurs when $Z > 1$.
This indicates that the gas is less compressible than an ideal gas.
From the given graph,the curves for gases $a$,$b$,and $c$ lie entirely above the line $Z = 1$ for all pressures.
Therefore,gases $a$,$b$,and $c$ show only positive deviation from ideal behavior.

Identify the correct variation of pressure $(p)$ and volume $(V)$ of a real gas $(A)$ and an ideal gas $(B)$ at constant temperature. ($y = p$; $x = V$)
A
Option A
B
Option B
C
Option C
D
Option D

Solution

(C) The ideal gas equation is $pV = nRT$. At constant temperature,$p = \frac{nRT}{V}$,which represents a rectangular hyperbola $(p \propto \frac{1}{V})$.
For a real gas,the behavior deviates from the ideal gas law due to intermolecular forces and finite molecular volume.
At high pressures,the volume of a real gas is greater than that of an ideal gas because of the excluded volume effect ($V_{real} > V_{ideal}$ for a given $p$).
Therefore,for a fixed pressure,the curve for the real gas $(A)$ lies above the curve for the ideal gas $(B)$ in the $p$ vs $V$ plot.
This corresponds to the plot shown in option $C$.

While passing through an applied magnetic field,which of the following undergoes the maximum deflection?
A
Stream of $\alpha$-particles
B
Stream of $\beta$-particles
C
$\gamma$-rays
D
Stream of neutrons

Solution

(B) The deflection of a charged particle in a magnetic field is given by the Lorentz force,$F = qvB \sin \theta$,and the resulting acceleration is $a = F/m = (qvB \sin \theta)/m$.
Since the deflection is proportional to the charge-to-mass ratio $(q/m)$,the particle with the highest $q/m$ ratio will undergo the maximum deflection.
$\alpha$-particles $(He^{2+})$ have a mass of approximately $4 \ amu$ and a charge of $+2$.
$\beta$-particles $(e^-)$ have a mass of approximately $1/1837 \ amu$ and a charge of $-1$.
$\gamma$-rays are electromagnetic radiation with no charge and no mass,so they show no deflection.
Neutrons have no charge,so they show no deflection.
Comparing the $q/m$ ratios,the $\beta$-particle has a significantly higher $q/m$ ratio than the $\alpha$-particle,leading to maximum deflection.

Among the ions $O^{2-}, Na^{+}, F^{-}, N^{3-}, Mg^{2+}$,the ions with the smallest and largest radii are respectively:
A
$F^{-}, N^{3-}$
B
$Mg^{2+}, N^{3-}$
C
$Na^{+}, F^{-}$
D
$F^{-}, Na^{+}$

Solution

(B) The given ions $O^{2-}, Na^{+}, F^{-}, N^{3-}, Mg^{2+}$ are isoelectronic species,as each contains $10$ electrons.
For isoelectronic species,the ionic radius decreases as the nuclear charge (number of protons) increases.
The number of protons in these ions are: $N^{3-} (7), O^{2-} (8), F^{-} (9), Na^{+} (11), Mg^{2+} (12)$.
Since $Mg^{2+}$ has the highest nuclear charge ($12$ protons),it has the smallest ionic radius.
Since $N^{3-}$ has the lowest nuclear charge ($7$ protons),it has the largest ionic radius.
Therefore,the ions with the smallest and largest radii are $Mg^{2+}$ and $N^{3-}$ respectively.

The correct order of atomic radii of the elements $O$,$N$,$S$ and $P$ is
A
$N < P < S < O$
B
$N < O < P < S$
C
$O < N < P < S$
D
$O < N < S < P$

Solution

(D) The atomic radius decreases on moving from left to right in a period because the effective nuclear charge increases while the number of shells remains the same. Thus,the size of $O < N$ and $S < P$.
On moving down a group,the atomic radius increases due to the addition of a new shell. Thus,the size of $O < S$ and $N < P$.
Combining these trends,we compare the elements: $O$ and $N$ are in the $2^{nd}$ period,while $S$ and $P$ are in the $3^{rd}$ period.
Since $O < N$ and $S < P$,and elements in the $2^{nd}$ period are smaller than those in the $3^{rd}$ period,the overall order is $O < N < S < P$.

The energy required (in $eV$) to excite an electron of $H$-atom from the ground state to the third excited state is
A
$+0.85$
B
$-3.4$
C
$12.1$
D
$-12.1$

Solution

(C) The energy of an electron in the $n^{th}$ orbit of a hydrogen-like atom is given by $E_n = \frac{-13.6 \ Z^2}{n^2} \ eV$.
For the ground state $(n=1)$ of $H$-atom $(Z=1)$: $E_1 = \frac{-13.6 \times 1^2}{1^2} = -13.6 \ eV$.
The third excited state corresponds to $n=4$ (since $n=1$ is ground,$n=2$ is first excited,$n=3$ is second excited,and $n=4$ is third excited).
$E_4 = \frac{-13.6 \times 1^2}{4^2} = \frac{-13.6}{16} = -0.85 \ eV$.
The energy required for excitation is $\Delta E = E_4 - E_1 = -0.85 - (-13.6) = 12.75 \ eV$.
Note: If the question implies the third state $(n=3)$,then $\Delta E = E_3 - E_1 = -1.51 - (-13.6) = 12.09 \ eV \approx 12.1 \ eV$. Given the options,the question refers to the third state $(n=3)$.

The wavelength associated with the electron moving in the first orbit of hydrogen atom with velocity $2.2 \times 10^6 \ ms^{-1}$ (in $nm$) is $\left(m_e=9.0 \times 10^{-31} \ kg, h=6.6 \times 10^{-34} \ Js\right)$
A
$0.66$
B
$0.33$
C
$0.22$
D
$0.44$

Solution

(B) According to de-Broglie's equation,$\lambda = \frac{h}{mv}$.
Given:
$h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \ Js$
$m = 9.0 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$
$v = 2.2 \times 10^6 \ ms^{-1}$
Substituting the values:
$\lambda = \frac{6.6 \times 10^{-34}}{9.0 \times 10^{-31} \times 2.2 \times 10^6}$
$\lambda = \frac{6.6}{19.8} \times 10^{-34+31-6} \ m$
$\lambda = 0.333 \times 10^{-9} \ m$
Since $1 \ nm = 10^{-9} \ m$,the wavelength is $0.33 \ nm$.

The wavelength of the electron in the ground state of a hydrogen atom is $y \ \mathring{A}$. What is the wavelength of the electron in the fourth orbit of $He^{+}$ ion (in $\mathring{A}$)?
A
$2 y$
B
$3 y$
C
$y$
D
$\frac{3 y}{2}$

Solution

(A) The de Broglie wavelength is given by $\lambda = \frac{h}{mv}$.
For an electron in the $n^{th}$ orbit of a hydrogen-like species,the velocity $v$ is proportional to $\frac{Z}{n}$.
Since the circumference of the orbit is $2 \pi r = n \lambda$ and $r \propto \frac{n^2}{Z}$,we have $\lambda = \frac{2 \pi r}{n} \propto \frac{n^2/Z}{n} = \frac{n}{Z}$.
For the $H$-atom $(Z=1)$ in the ground state $(n=1)$: $\lambda_1 \propto \frac{1}{1} = 1$. Given $\lambda_1 = y$.
For the $He^{+}$ ion $(Z=2)$ in the fourth orbit $(n=4)$: $\lambda_2 \propto \frac{4}{2} = 2$.
Therefore,$\frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1} = \frac{2}{1} = 2$,which implies $\lambda_2 = 2 y$.

The velocity of the electron in Bohr's first orbit is $x \times 10^6 \ m \ s^{-1}$. The de-Broglie wavelength associated with it (in $nm$) is $(m_e = 9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg, h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \ J \ s)$
A
$\frac{x}{1.43}$
B
$\frac{x}{0.73}$
C
$\frac{0.73}{x}$
D
$\frac{0.073}{x}$

Solution

(C) According to de-Broglie's equation,$\lambda = \frac{h}{m_e v}$.
Given values are $h = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \ J \ s$,$m_e = 9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$,and $v = x \times 10^6 \ m \ s^{-1}$.
Substituting these values into the equation:
$\lambda = \frac{6.6 \times 10^{-34}}{9 \times 10^{-31} \times x \times 10^6} \ m$
$\lambda = \frac{6.6}{9} \times 10^{-34 + 31 - 6} \times \frac{1}{x} \ m$
$\lambda = 0.733 \times 10^{-9} \times \frac{1}{x} \ m$
Since $1 \ m = 10^9 \ nm$,we have:
$\lambda = 0.733 \times 10^{-9} \times \frac{1}{x} \times 10^9 \ nm$
$\lambda = \frac{0.733}{x} \ nm \approx \frac{0.73}{x} \ nm$.

The ratio of radii of the second orbit of a hydrogen atom to the fourth orbit of a $He^{+}$ ion is:
A
$1: 4$
B
$2: 1$
C
$1: 2$
D
$2: 3$

Solution

(C) For hydrogen and hydrogen-like atoms,the radius of the $n^{th}$ orbit is given by the formula: $r_n \propto \frac{n^2}{Z}$,where $n$ is the orbit number and $Z$ is the atomic number.
For a hydrogen atom $(H)$,$Z = 1$. The radius of the second orbit $(n = 2)$ is $r_2 = \frac{2^2}{1} = 4$.
For a helium ion $(He^{+})$,$Z = 2$. The radius of the fourth orbit $(n = 4)$ is $r_4 = \frac{4^2}{2} = \frac{16}{2} = 8$.
The ratio of the radii is $\frac{r_2}{r_4} = \frac{4}{8} = \frac{1}{2}$,which is $1: 2$.

A
$9$
B
$6$
C
$13.5$
D
$4.5$

Solution

(C) The radius of the $n^{th}$ orbit of a hydrogen-like species is given by $r_n = 0.529 \times \frac{n^2}{Z} \mathring{A}$.
For $Li^{2+}$,$n = 1$ and $Z = 3$,so $r_{Li^{2+}} = 0.529 \times \frac{1^2}{3} = X \mathring{A}$.
This implies $0.529 = 3X$.
For $He^{+}$,$n = 3$ and $Z = 2$,so $r_{He^{+}} = 0.529 \times \frac{3^2}{2} = 0.529 \times \frac{9}{2} \mathring{A}$.
Substituting $0.529 = 3X$ into the expression for $r_{He^{+}}$:
$r_{He^{+}} = (3X) \times \frac{9}{2} = \frac{27}{2} X = 13.5X \mathring{A}$.

If $\Delta x$ is the uncertainty in position and $\Delta v$ is the uncertainty in velocity of a particle are equal,the correct expression for uncertainty in momentum for the same particle is
A
$\frac{1}{4} \sqrt{\frac{m h}{\pi}}$
B
$\frac{1}{3} \sqrt{\frac{m h}{2 \pi}}$
C
$\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{m h}{\pi}}$
D
$\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{h}{m \pi}}$

Solution

(C) According to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle,$\Delta x \cdot \Delta p \geq \frac{h}{4 \pi}$.
Given that the uncertainty in position $\Delta x$ is equal to the uncertainty in velocity $\Delta v$,so $\Delta x = \Delta v$.
Since $\Delta p = m \Delta v$,we can substitute $\Delta v = \Delta x$ into the uncertainty relation:
$\Delta x \cdot (m \Delta x) = \frac{h}{4 \pi}$
$m (\Delta x)^2 = \frac{h}{4 \pi}$
$(\Delta x)^2 = \frac{h}{4 \pi m}$
$\Delta x = \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{h}{\pi m}}$
Since $\Delta p = m \Delta v$ and $\Delta v = \Delta x$,then $\Delta p = m \Delta x$.
Substituting the value of $\Delta x$:
$\Delta p = m \cdot \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{h}{\pi m}}$
$\Delta p = \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{m^2 h}{\pi m}}$
$\Delta p = \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{m h}{\pi}}$

Kinetic Energy ($K$.$E$.) $= \frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{1}{2} m \left(\frac{h}{m \lambda}\right)^2 = \frac{h^2}{2m \lambda^2}$

B
$5.49 \times 10^{13}$
C
$6.49 \times 10^{14}$
D
$7.49 \times 10^{14}$

Solution

(D) The work function $(\phi)$ is given by $\phi = h \nu_0$,where $\nu_0$ is the threshold frequency.
First,convert the work function from $eV$ to Joules:
$\phi = 3.1 \ eV = 3.1 \times 1.602 \times 10^{-19} \ J = 4.966 \times 10^{-19} \ J$.
Now,calculate the threshold frequency $\nu_0$:
$\nu_0 = \frac{\phi}{h} = \frac{4.966 \times 10^{-19} \ J}{6.62 \times 10^{-34} \ J \cdot s} \approx 7.49 \times 10^{14} \ Hz$.

The work function of a metal $M$ is $6.3 \ eV$. The wavelength of the incident radiation required to just eject the electrons from its surface (in $nm$) is
A
$102$
B
$330$
C
$197$
D
$310$

Solution

(C) The work function $(\Phi)$ of the metal $M$ is $6.3 \ eV$.
To eject electrons,the energy of the incident radiation $(E)$ must be equal to the work function: $E = \Phi = 6.3 \ eV$.
Using the relation between energy in $eV$ and wavelength in $nm$:
$E (eV) = \frac{1240}{\lambda (nm)}$
Therefore,$\lambda (nm) = \frac{1240}{E (eV)} = \frac{1240}{6.3} \approx 196.8 \ nm$.
Rounding to the nearest integer,we get $197 \ nm$.

A
$4$
B
$2$
C
$3$
D
$5$

Solution

(C) The energy of the incident radiation $(E)$ is calculated using the formula: $E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}$.
Substituting the values: $E = \frac{6.62 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8}{400 \times 10^{-9} \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}} \text{ eV} \approx 3.1 \text{ eV}$.
For photoemission to occur,the energy of the incident radiation must be greater than or equal to the work function $(E \ge W_0)$.
Conversely,electrons will not be ejected if the work function is greater than the incident energy $(W_0 > E)$.
Comparing the given work functions with $3.1 \text{ eV}$:
$Mg (3.7 > 3.1)$,$Cu (4.8 > 3.1)$,and $Ag (4.3 > 3.1)$ have work functions greater than $3.1 \text{ eV}$.
Therefore,$3$ metals will not eject electrons.

A
$0, 3$
B
$1, 2$

Solution

(A) For any orbital,the number of angular nodes is equal to the azimuthal quantum number $(l)$.
For a $4f$-orbital,the principal quantum number $n = 4$ and the azimuthal quantum number $l = 3$.
Angular nodes $= l = 3$.
The number of radial nodes is given by the formula: $\text{Radial nodes} = n - l - 1$.

A
Spin quantum number

It is a quantum number for an atomic orbital that determines its orbital angular momentum and describes its shape.
The azimuthal quantum number is the second of a set of quantum numbers representing an electron's unique quantum state.
For example,$l = 0$ represents a spherical orbital ($s$-orbital),and $l = 1$ represents a dumbbell-shaped orbital ($p$-orbital).

The quantum numbers $n=4$ and $l=3$ specify a $4f$ subshell,which contains $7$ distinct orbitals.
However,the question asks for the maximum number of electrons in an orbital (singular),not the entire subshell.

Solution

(A) The total number of electrons in a shell with principal quantum number $n$ is given by $2n^2$.
For $n=4$,the total number of electrons is $2 \times 4^2 = 32$.
Since each orbital can hold a maximum of $2$ electrons with opposite spins ($+\frac{1}{2}$ and $-\frac{1}{2}$),exactly half of the total electrons will have a spin quantum number of $+\frac{1}{2}$.
Therefore,the number of electrons with spin $+\frac{1}{2}$ is $\frac{32}{2} = 16$.

Solution

(B) For an electron in a $3p$-orbital,the principal quantum number $n = 3$.
For a $p$-orbital,the azimuthal quantum number $l = 1$.
The magnetic quantum number $m$ can take values from $-l$ to $+l$,which means $m = -1, 0, +1$.
The spin quantum number $s$ can be $+1/2$ or $-1/2$.
Comparing these with the given options,in option $(b)$,the value of $m$ is given as $-2$,which is not possible for $l = 1$.

The number of atoms in $210 \ g$ of $A$ is equal to the number of atoms in $594 \ g$ of $B$. If the density of $A$ is $7 \ g \ cm^{-3}$,what is the density of $B$ (in $g \ cm^{-3}$)?
A
$9.9$
B
$4.5$
C
$6.8$
D
$11.2$

Solution

(A) The number of atoms in $210 \ g$ of $A$ is $\frac{210}{M_A} \times N_A$ and in $594 \ g$ of $B$ is $\frac{594}{M_B} \times N_A$,where $M_A$ and $M_B$ are molar masses.
Given: $\frac{210}{M_A} = \frac{594}{M_B} \implies \frac{M_B}{M_A} = \frac{594}{210} = 2.828$.
Density formula: $d = \frac{Z \times M}{N_A \times a^3}$.
For $A$ ($fcc$,$Z=4$): $7 = \frac{4 \times M_A}{N_A \times a^3}$.
For $B$ ($bcc$,$Z=2$): $d_B = \frac{2 \times M_B}{N_A \times a^3}$.
Taking the ratio: $\frac{d_B}{7} = \frac{2 \times M_B}{4 \times M_A} = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{M_B}{M_A}$.
Substituting the ratio: $\frac{d_B}{7} = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{594}{210} = \frac{1}{2} \times 2.828 = 1.414$.
$d_B = 7 \times 1.414 = 9.9 \ g \ cm^{-3}$.

The anions $(A)$ of a $C_{p}A_{q}$ molecule form an $fcc$ lattice. Cations $(C)$ are positioned at the body center and half of the edge centers. The formula of the molecule is:
A
$CA$
B
$CA_{2}$
C
$C_{3}A_{4}$
D
$C_{5}A_{8}$

Solution

(D) In an $fcc$ unit cell,anions $(A)$ are present at $8$ corners and $6$ face centers.
Effective number of $A = (\frac{1}{8} \times 8) + (\frac{1}{2} \times 6) = 1 + 3 = 4$.
Cations $(C)$ are present at the body center $(1)$ and half of the edge centers ($12 \times \frac{1}{2} = 6$ edges).
Effective number of $C = 1 + (6 \times \frac{1}{4}) = 1 + 1.5 = 2.5 = \frac{5}{2}$.
The ratio of $C:A = \frac{5}{2} : 4 = 5 : 8$.
Thus,the formula of the molecule is $C_{5}A_{8}$.

Which of the following statements is not correct?
A
Packing efficiency of $hcp$ and $ccp$ lattices are identical
B
Packing efficiency of $fcc$ lattice $>$ Packing efficiency of $ccp$ lattice
C
Packing efficiency of $fcc$ lattice $=$ Packing efficiency of $ccp$ lattice
D
Packing efficiency of $hcp$ lattice $=$ Packing efficiency of $fcc$ lattice

Solution

(B) The packing efficiency of $hcp$,$ccp$,and $fcc$ lattices are all equal to $74\%$.
Since $fcc$ and $ccp$ are the same arrangement (cubic close packing),their packing efficiencies are identical.
Therefore,the statement that the packing efficiency of $fcc$ lattice $>$ packing efficiency of $ccp$ lattice is incorrect.

Solution

(C) atoms are at the body centre. Contribution $= 1 \times 1 = 1$.
$B$ atoms are at the corners. Contribution $= 8 \times \frac{1}{8} = 1$.
$C$ atoms are at half of the face centres. Total face centres $= 6$,so $C$ atoms $= 3$. Contribution $= 3 \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{3}{2}$.
The ratio of $A:B:C$ is $1:1:\frac{3}{2}$.
Multiplying by $2$,we get $A_2 B_2 C_3$.

$Ag$ crystallises in $fcc$ lattice. What is the total number of tetrahedral voids present in $540 \ g$ of $Ag$ metal (in $N_A$)? $(N_A = \text{Avogadro number}; Ag \text{ atomic weight} = 108 \ g \ mol^{-1})$
A
$10$
B
$20$
C
$40$
D

Solution

(A) $Ag$ crystallises in $fcc$ lattice. Each unit cell contains $4$ atoms and $8$ tetrahedral voids.
Number of moles of $Ag = \frac{540 \ g}{108 \ g \ mol^{-1}} = 5 \ mol$.
Number of $Ag$ atoms = $5 N_A$.
Since $Ag$ crystallises in $fcc$,the number of unit cells = $\frac{\text{Total atoms}}{4} = \frac{5 N_A}{4} = 1.25 N_A$.
Number of tetrahedral voids = $8 \times \text{Number of unit cells} = 8 \times 1.25 N_A = 10 N_A$.

A
$63.5$
B
$85.5$
C
$108.0$
D
$197.0$

Solution

(C) The effective number of atoms in an $fcc$ unit cell is $Z = 4$.
The formula for density is $d = \frac{Z \times M}{N_{A} \times a^3}$.
Given: $d = 11.21 \ g \ cm^{-3}$,$a = 4 \ \mathring{A} = 4 \times 10^{-8} \ cm$,$N_{A} = 6.023 \times 10^{23} \ mol^{-1}$.
Rearranging for molar mass $(M)$: $M = \frac{d \times N_{A} \times a^3}{Z}$.
$M = \frac{11.21 \times 6.023 \times 10^{23} \times (4 \times 10^{-8})^3}{4}$.
$M = \frac{11.21 \times 6.023 \times 10^{23} \times 64 \times 10^{-24}}{4}$.
$M = 11.21 \times 6.023 \times 16 \times 0.1 = 108.0 \ g \ mol^{-1}$.

In a crystal lattice,anions $A$ form an $hcp$ array,and $2/3$ of the tetrahedral voids are occupied by cations $C$. What is the formula of the crystal?
A
$C_3 A_4$
B
$C_4 A_3$
C
$C_2 A_3$
D
$C_3 A_2$

Solution

(B) In an $hcp$ lattice,the number of atoms per unit cell is $6$.
Since anions $A$ form the $hcp$ array,the number of anions $A = 6$.
The number of tetrahedral voids is equal to $2 \times$ (number of atoms in the lattice) $= 2 \times 6 = 12$.
Given that $2/3$ of the tetrahedral voids are occupied by cations $C$,the number of cations $C = \frac{2}{3} \times 12 = 8$.
The ratio of $C : A = 8 : 6$,which simplifies to $4 : 3$.
Therefore,the formula of the crystal is $C_4 A_3$.

Solution

(A) Atoms of $A$ are placed at the corners of the unit cell. The number of corners in a cube is $8$,and the contribution of each corner atom is $\frac{1}{8}$.
Number of $A$ atoms $= 8 \times \frac{1}{8} = 1$.
Atoms of $B$ are placed at the face centers. The number of faces in a cube is $6$,and the contribution of each face-centered atom is $\frac{1}{2}$.

$F$-centres are formed in $NaCl$ crystal if it is heated with $Na$ vapour. The above is due to
A
Schottky defect
B
Dislocation defect
C
Metal excess defect
D
Metal deficiency defect

Solution

(C) When $NaCl$ crystals are heated in an atmosphere of $Na$ vapour,the $Na$ atoms deposit on the surface of the crystal.
$Cl^-$ ions diffuse to the surface and combine with $Na$ atoms to form $NaCl$,which releases electrons into the crystal lattice.
These electrons occupy the vacant anionic sites,known as $F$-centres ($F$ stands for the German word 'Farbe',meaning colour).
This phenomenon is a type of metal excess defect caused by anionic vacancies.

Which of the following molecular formula and type of defect are correct for the following statement?
"In $FeO$ crystal,some $Fe^{2+}$ ions are missing and the loss of positive charge is made up by the presence of $Fe^{3+}$ ions".
A
$Fe_{0.95} O$ and metal excess defect.
B
$Fe_{1.05} O$ and metal deficiency defect.
C
$Fe_{0.95} O$ and metal deficiency defect.
D
$Fe_{1.05} O$ and metal excess defect.

Solution

(C) The crystal of $FeO$ exhibits a metal deficiency defect because some $Fe^{2+}$ ions are missing from their lattice sites.
To maintain electrical neutrality,the loss of positive charge is compensated by the presence of $Fe^{3+}$ ions.
Since the number of metal ions is less than the stoichiometric ratio,it is a metal deficiency defect.
Typically,the formula is represented as $Fe_{0.95} O$.

Mass of solution $= 100 \ g$
Mass of glucose $= 10 \ g$
Mass of solvent $= 90 \ g$
Molar mass of glucose $(C_6H_{12}O_6) = 12 \times 6 + 1 \times 12 + 16 \times 6 = 180 \ g \ mol^{-1}$
Molality $= \frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Molar mass of solute}} \times \frac{1000}{\text{Mass of solvent (in g)}}$

B
$1.11 \times 10^{-1}$
C
$2.22 \times 10^{-1}$
D
$5.1 \times 10^{-2}$

Solution

(B) According to Henry's law,$p = K_H \cdot \chi$,where $\chi$ is the mole fraction of $CO_2$.
Given $p = 3.4 \ bar$ and $K_H = 1.7 \times 10^3 \ bar$.
$\chi = \frac{p}{K_H} = \frac{3.4}{1.7 \times 10^3} = 2 \times 10^{-3}$.
Since the solution is dilute,$\chi = \frac{n_{CO_2}}{n_{H_2O}}$.
$n_{H_2O} = \frac{200 \ g}{18 \ g \ mol^{-1}} = 11.11 \ mol$.
$n_{CO_2} = \chi \times n_{H_2O} = 2 \times 10^{-3} \times 11.11 = 2.222 \times 10^{-2} \ mol$.
Molarity $= \frac{n_{CO_2}}{\text{Volume in } L} = \frac{2.222 \times 10^{-2} \ mol}{0.2 \ L} = 0.1111 \ mol \ L^{-1} = 1.11 \times 10^{-1} \ mol \ L^{-1}$.

$x \% (w/v)$ solution of urea means $x \ g$ of urea in $100 \ mL$ of solution. The molar mass of urea $(NH_2CONH_2)$ is $60 \ g \ mol^{-1}$.
$C_{\text{urea}} = \frac{x \ g}{60 \ g \ mol^{-1}} \times \frac{1000 \ mL}{100 \ mL} \times \frac{1}{1 \ L} = \frac{x}{6} \ M$.
$4 \% (w/v)$ solution of non-volatile solute means $4 \ g$ of solute in $100 \ mL$ of solution. The molar mass of the solute is $120 \ g \ mol^{-1}$.
$C_{\text{solute}} = \frac{4 \ g}{120 \ g \ mol^{-1}} \times \frac{1000 \ mL}{100 \ mL} \times \frac{1}{1 \ L} = \frac{4}{12} \ M = \frac{1}{3} \ M$.

Mole fraction of $A$ in solution $= \chi_A = 0.7$
Mole fraction of $B$ in solution $= \chi_B = 0.3$
$p_{\text{Total}} = \chi_A p_A^{\circ} + \chi_B p_B^{\circ}$

A
$50.0$
B

C
$75.0$
D

Solution

(B) Two solutions having the same osmotic pressure at a given temperature are called isotonic solutions.
For isotonic solutions,the molar concentrations are equal: $C_{urea} = C_{X}$.
The formula for molar concentration is $C = \frac{W}{M \times V(L)}$.
Since the volumes are the same,we have $\frac{W_{urea}}{M_{urea}} = \frac{W_{X}}{M_{X}}$.
The molar mass of urea $(NH_2CONH_2)$ is $60 \ g \ mol^{-1}$.
Substituting the given values: $\frac{6.0}{60} = \frac{10}{M_{X}}$.
$0.1 = \frac{10}{M_{X}}$.
$M_{X} = \frac{10}{0.1} = 100 \ g \ mol^{-1}$.

Moles of urea $(n_{u})$ = $\frac{12 \ g}{60 \ g \ mol^{-1}} = 0.2 \ mol$.
Moles of glucose $(n_{g})$ = $\frac{36 \ g}{180 \ g \ mol^{-1}} = 0.2 \ mol$.
Moles of water $(n_{H_2O})$ = $\frac{100 \ g}{18 \ g \ mol^{-1}} = 5.55 \ mol$.
Mole fraction of water $(\chi_{H_2O})$ = $\frac{n_{H_2O}}{n_{H_2O} + n_{u} + n_{g}} = \frac{5.55}{5.55 + 0.2 + 0.2} = \frac{5.55}{5.95} \approx 0.9328$.

Given: $P_{O_2} = 1 \ bar$,$K_{H} = 50 \ kbar = 50 \times 10^3 \ bar$.
$\chi_{O_2} = \frac{P_{O_2}}{K_{H}} = \frac{1}{50 \times 10^3} = 2 \times 10^{-5}$.
Since $\chi_{O_2} = \frac{n_{O_2}}{n_{O_2} + n_{H_2O}} \approx \frac{n_{O_2}}{n_{H_2O}}$,and $n_{H_2O} = \frac{1000 \ g}{18 \ g/mol} \approx 55.5 \ mol$.
$n_{O_2} = \chi_{O_2} \times 55.5 = 2 \times 10^{-5} \times 55.5 = 1.11 \times 10^{-3} \ mol$.
Mass of $O_2 = 1.11 \times 10^{-3} \ mol \times 32 \ g/mol = 0.03552 \ g$.
Concentration in $ppm = \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{mass of solution}} \times 10^6 = \frac{0.03552 \ g}{1000 \ g} \times 10^6 = 35.52 \ ppm \approx 35.50 \ ppm$.

$0.05 \ mol$ of a non-volatile solute is dissolved in $500 \ g$ of water. What is the depression in freezing point of the resultant solution (in $K$)? $(K_f(H_2O) = 1.86 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1})$
A
$0.047$
B
$0.372$
C
$0.093$
D
$0.186$

Solution

(D) Given: $n = 0.05 \ mol$
Weight of solvent $(W) = 500 \ g = 0.5 \ kg$
$K_f = 1.86 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1}$
Depression in freezing point $(\Delta T_f) = ?$
Molality $(m) = \frac{\text{Number of moles of solute}}{\text{Weight of solvent in } kg} = \frac{0.05}{0.5} = 0.1 \ m$
Using the formula: $\Delta T_f = m \times K_f$
$\Delta T_f = 0.1 \times 1.86 = 0.186 \ K$

Which of the following pairs of solutions is isotonic?
$A$. $18 \ g/L$ of glucose solution and $6 \ g/L$ of urea solution
$B$. $10 \ g/L$ of glucose solution and $10 \ g/L$ of urea solution
$C$. $0.01 \ M \ NaOH$ solution and $0.02 \ M$ glucose solution
$D$. $0.01 \ M \ NaCl$ solution and $0.01 \ M$ glucose solution
(Assume that $NaCl$ undergoes complete dissociation)
A
$A$ and $B$
B
$A$ and $C$
C
$B$ and $D$
D
$B$ and $C$

Solution

(B) Two solutions are isotonic if they have the same osmotic pressure $(\pi)$. For a solution,$\pi = iCRT$,where $i$ is the van't Hoff factor,$C$ is molarity,$R$ is the gas constant,and $T$ is temperature.
For non-electrolytes like glucose and urea,$i = 1$. For electrolytes,$i$ is the number of ions produced.
$(A)$ Glucose $(18 \ g/L)$: $C = 18/180 = 0.1 \ M$. Urea $(6 \ g/L)$: $C = 6/60 = 0.1 \ M$. Since $C_1 = C_2$,$\pi_1 = \pi_2$. Thus,$A$ is isotonic.
$(B)$ Glucose $(10 \ g/L)$: $C = 10/180 \approx 0.056 \ M$. Urea $(10 \ g/L)$: $C = 10/60 \approx 0.167 \ M$. $\pi_1 \neq \pi_2$.
$(C)$ $NaOH$ $(0.01 \ M)$: $i = 2$ $(Na^+ + OH^-)$,so $\pi = 2 \times 0.01 \times RT = 0.02 \ RT$. Glucose $(0.02 \ M)$: $i = 1$,so $\pi = 1 \times 0.02 \times RT = 0.02 \ RT$. Since $\pi_1 = \pi_2$,$C$ is isotonic.
$(D)$ $NaCl$ $(0.01 \ M)$: $i = 2$,so $\pi = 2 \times 0.01 \times RT = 0.02 \ RT$. Glucose $(0.01 \ M)$: $i = 1$,so $\pi = 0.01 \times RT$. $\pi_1 \neq \pi_2$.
Therefore,both $A$ and $C$ are isotonic pairs.

Which of the following conditions is correct for reverse osmosis? [$C =$ Concentration of solution in $mol \ L^{-1}$; $T =$ Temperature in Kelvin scale; $P_{ext} =$ External pressure; $\pi = CRT =$ Osmotic pressure]
A
$P_{ext} = CRT$
B
$P_{ext} > CRT$
C
$P_{ext} < CRT$
D
$P_{ext} > nRT$

Solution

(B) Osmotic pressure $(\pi)$ is given by the formula $\pi = CRT$.
In reverse osmosis,an external pressure $(P_{ext})$ greater than the osmotic pressure is applied to the solution side.
This forces the solvent molecules to move from the solution of higher concentration to the solvent through a semipermeable membrane.
Therefore,the condition for reverse osmosis is $P_{ext} > \pi$,which implies $P_{ext} > CRT$.

Which of the following solutions has the highest freezing point?
A
$0.1 \ mol \ KCl$ in $1 \ kg$ water
B
$0.1 \ mol \ K_2SO_4$ in $1 \ kg$ water
C
$0.1 \ mol$ Urea in $1 \ kg$ water
D
$30 \ g$ of glucose in $1 \ kg$ water

Solution

(C) The freezing point depression is a colligative property,given by the formula $\Delta T_f = i \cdot K_f \cdot m$,where $i$ is the van't Hoff factor and $m$ is the molality.
Freezing point $T_f = T_f^0 - \Delta T_f$. To have the highest freezing point,the depression $\Delta T_f$ must be the minimum.
$1$. For $0.1 \ mol \ KCl$: $i = 2$,$m = 0.1$,so $\Delta T_f \propto 2 \times 0.1 = 0.2$.
$2$. For $0.1 \ mol \ K_2SO_4$: $i = 3$,$m = 0.1$,so $\Delta T_f \propto 3 \times 0.1 = 0.3$.
$3$. For $0.1 \ mol$ Urea: $i = 1$,$m = 0.1$,so $\Delta T_f \propto 1 \times 0.1 = 0.1$.
$4$. For $30 \ g$ Glucose $(M = 180 \ g/mol)$: $m = \frac{30}{180} = 0.167 \ mol/kg$,$i = 1$,so $\Delta T_f \propto 1 \times 0.167 = 0.167$.
Comparing the values,the minimum $\Delta T_f$ is for $0.1 \ mol$ Urea. Thus,it has the highest freezing point.

The freezing point depression of a solution containing $0.6 \ g$ of urea (molar mass $= 60 \ g \ mol^{-1}$) in $100 \ mL$ of benzene (in $K$) is ($K_f$ of benzene $= 4.0 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1}$).
A
$0.3$
B
$0.58$
C
$0.4$
D
$0.24$

Solution

(C) Given: $\text{Mass of urea} = 0.6 \ g$
$\text{Molar mass of urea} = 60 \ g \ mol^{-1}$
$K_f \text{ of benzene} = 4.0 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1}$
$\text{Volume of benzene} = 100 \ mL$.
Assuming the density of benzene is $1 \ g \ mL^{-1}$,the mass of the solvent is $100 \ g = 0.1 \ kg$.
$\text{Moles of urea} = \frac{0.6 \ g}{60 \ g \ mol^{-1}} = 0.01 \ mol$.
$\text{Molality } (m) = \frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{mass of solvent in kg}} = \frac{0.01 \ mol}{0.1 \ kg} = 0.1 \ mol \ kg^{-1}$.
$\text{Freezing point depression } (\Delta T_f) = K_f \times m = 4.0 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1} \times 0.1 \ mol \ kg^{-1} = 0.4 \ K$.
Therefore,option $C$ is correct.

$1.8 \ g$ of glucose (molar mass $180 \ g \ mol^{-1}$) is dissolved in $0.1 \ kg$ of water. The freezing point of the solution (in $^{\circ}C$) is ($K_f$ for water $= 1.86 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1}$)
A
$+0.186$
B
$-0.372$
C
$-0.186$
D
$+0.372$

Solution

(C) Depression in freezing point is given as $\Delta T_f = i \times K_f \times m$.
Here,$i = 1$ (for glucose,a non-electrolyte).
$K_f = 1.86 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1}$.
Molality $(m)$ is calculated as:
$m = \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{molar mass of solute}} \times \frac{1}{\text{mass of solvent in kg}} = \frac{1.8 \ g}{180 \ g \ mol^{-1}} \times \frac{1}{0.1 \ kg} = 0.01 \ mol \times 10 \ kg^{-1} = 0.1 \ m$.
Now,$\Delta T_f = 1 \times 1.86 \ K \ kg \ mol^{-1} \times 0.1 \ m = 0.186 \ K$ (or $0.186^{\circ}C$).
Freezing point of solution = Freezing point of pure solvent - $\Delta T_f$.
Freezing point of solution = $0^{\circ}C - 0.186^{\circ}C = -0.186^{\circ}C$.

The depression in freezing point of a solution of molality $0.01 \ mol \ kg^{-1}$ is highest with respect to which of the following solvents? (The $K_f$ value is given in brackets)
A
Water $(1.86)$
B
Benzene $(5.12)$
C
Carbon tetrachloride $(31.8)$
D
Cyclohexane $(20.0)$

Solution

(C) The depression in freezing point is given by the formula: $\Delta T_f = i \times K_f \times m$.
Since the molality $(m = 0.01 \ mol \ kg^{-1})$ is constant and the van't Hoff factor $(i)$ is $1$ for non-electrolytic solutes in these solvents,the depression in freezing point is directly proportional to the cryoscopic constant $(K_f)$: $\Delta T_f \propto K_f$.
Comparing the given $K_f$ values:
Water: $1.86$
Benzene: $5.12$
Carbon tetrachloride: $31.8$
Cyclohexane: $20.0$
Since carbon tetrachloride has the highest $K_f$ value $(31.8)$,the depression in freezing point will be the highest for this solvent.

What is the total charge of one mole of electrons?
A
$9.65 \times 10^4 \ C$
B
$9.65 \times 10^3 \ C$
C
$1.93 \times 10^5 \ C$
D
$1.602 \times 10^{-19} \ C$

Solution

(A) The charge of one electron is approximately $1.602 \times 10^{-19} \ C$.
To find the charge of one mole of electrons,we multiply this value by Avogadro's number $(N_A = 6.022 \times 10^{23} \ mol^{-1})$.
Charge $= (1.602 \times 10^{-19} \ C) \times (6.022 \times 10^{23} \ mol^{-1}) \approx 96485 \ C \ mol^{-1}$.
This value is known as one Faraday $(F)$,which is approximately $9.65 \times 10^4 \ C$.

$50 \ g$ of a substance is dissolved in $1 \ kg$ of water at $90^{\circ} C$. The temperature is reduced to $10^{\circ} C$. The density is increased from $1.1 \ g \ cm^{-3}$ to $1.15 \ g \ cm^{-3}$. What is the $\%$ change of molarity of the solution?
A
$10$
B
$4.5$
C
$5$
D
$7.3$

Solution

(B) Molarity $(M) = \frac{\text{mass of solute (g)}}{\text{molar mass (g/mol)}} \times \frac{1000}{\text{volume of solution (mL)}}$.
Mass of solution $= \text{mass of solute} + \text{mass of solvent} = 50 \ g + 1000 \ g = 1050 \ g$.
Volume of solution $(V) = \frac{\text{mass of solution}}{\text{density}}$.
At $90^{\circ} C$,$V_1 = \frac{1050}{1.1} \ mL$,so $M_1 = \frac{50}{M_w} \times \frac{1000}{1050/1.1} = \frac{50 \times 1000 \times 1.1}{M_w \times 1050} = \frac{52.38}{M_w}$.
At $10^{\circ} C$,$V_2 = \frac{1050}{1.15} \ mL$,so $M_2 = \frac{50}{M_w} \times \frac{1000}{1050/1.15} = \frac{50 \times 1000 \times 1.15}{M_w \times 1050} = \frac{54.76}{M_w}$.
$\%$ change in molarity $= \frac{M_2 - M_1}{M_1} \times 100 = \frac{54.76/M_w - 52.38/M_w}{52.38/M_w} \times 100 = \frac{2.38}{52.38} \times 100 \approx 4.54 \% \approx 4.5 \%$.

If $50 \%$ of $1 \ M \ Na_2SO_4$ is dissociated in an aqueous solution of density $1.2 \ g \ mL^{-1}$,what is the molality of $Na^{+}$ ion in the solution?
A
$0.95$
B
$1.89$
C
$1$
D
$2$

Solution

(A) Given: $1 \ M \ Na_2SO_4$ solution means $1 \ mol$ of $Na_2SO_4$ in $1000 \ mL$ of solution.
Density of solution $= 1.2 \ g \ mL^{-1}$.
Mass of $1000 \ mL$ solution $= 1000 \ mL \times 1.2 \ g \ mL^{-1} = 1200 \ g$.
Dissociation reaction: $Na_2SO_4 \rightarrow 2Na^{+} + SO_4^{2-}$.
Since $50 \%$ of $1 \ mol$ of $Na_2SO_4$ dissociates,the amount of $Na_2SO_4$ dissociated $= 0.5 \ mol$.
From the stoichiometry,$1 \ mol$ of $Na_2SO_4$ produces $2 \ mol$ of $Na^{+}$,so $0.5 \ mol$ of $Na_2SO_4$ produces $1 \ mol$ of $Na^{+}$.
Mass of $Na_2SO_4$ remaining $= (1 - 0.5) \times 142 \ g = 71 \ g$.
Mass of solvent $= \text{Mass of solution} - \text{Mass of } Na_2SO_4 = 1200 \ g - 71 \ g = 1129 \ g$.
Molality of $Na^{+}$ ion $= \frac{\text{moles of } Na^{+}}{\text{mass of solvent in } kg} = \frac{1 \ mol}{1.129 \ kg} \approx 0.885 \ m$.
Note: Based on standard calculation,the closest provided option is $0.95 \ m$.

Solution

(C) Isoelectronic species are those that have the same number of electrons.
$(A)$ $Pr^{3+}$: Number of electrons $= 59 - 3 = 56$. $Nd^{3+}$: Number of electrons $= 60 - 3 = 57$. Thus,they are not isoelectronic.
$(B)$ $Tb^{3+}$: Number of electrons $= 65 - 3 = 62$. $Dy^{2+}$: Number of electrons $= 66 - 2 = 64$. Thus,they are not isoelectronic.
$(C)$ $Eu^{2+}$: Number of electrons $= 63 - 2 = 61$. $Gd^{3+}$: Number of electrons $= 64 - 3 = 61$. Since both have $61$ electrons,they are isoelectronic.
$(D)$ $Pr^{3+}$: Number of electrons $= 59 - 3 = 56$. $Ce^{4+}$: Number of electrons $= 58 - 4 = 54$. Thus,they are not isoelectronic.

Assertion $(A)$: Finely divided charcoal can act as an adsorbent.
Reason $(R)$: Finely divided material has a small surface area.
A
Both $A$ and $R$ are correct and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$.
B
Both $A$ and $R$ are correct and $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A$.
C
$A$ is correct but $R$ is incorrect.
D
$A$ is incorrect but $R$ is correct.

Solution

(C) Adsorption is a surface phenomenon,and the extent of adsorption depends on the surface area of the adsorbent.
Finely divided substances have a much larger surface area per unit mass compared to bulk materials.
Therefore,finely divided charcoal acts as an effective adsorbent due to its large surface area.
Assertion $(A)$ is correct,but Reason $(R)$ is incorrect because finely divided material has a large,not small,surface area.

The correct order of adsorption of the following gases on the surface of charcoal is: $H_2$ $(I)$,$CH_4$ $(II)$,$SO_2$ $(III)$.
A
$III > II > I$
B
$III > I > II$
C
$II > I > III$
D
$II > III > I$

Solution

(A) The extent of adsorption of a gas on a solid surface depends on its critical temperature $(T_c)$.
Greater the critical temperature of a gas,more easily it can be liquefied and hence more strongly it is adsorbed on the solid surface.
The critical temperatures of the given gases are: $SO_2$ $(430 \ K)$,$CH_4$ $(190 \ K)$,and $H_2$ $(33 \ K)$.
Thus,the order of critical temperatures is $SO_2 > CH_4 > H_2$.
Therefore,the correct order of adsorption is $III > II > I$.

Assertion $(A)$: Adsorption is an exothermic process.
Reason $(R)$: Physisorption of a gas on a solid surface is normally reversible.
A
Both $A$ and $R$ are correct and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A$.
B
Both $A$ and $R$ are correct but $R$ is not the correct explanation of $A$.
C
$A$ is correct but $R$ is incorrect.
D
$A$ is incorrect but $R$ is correct.

Solution

(B) Both Assertion $(A)$ and Reason $(R)$ are correct,but Reason $(R)$ is not the correct explanation of Assertion $(A)$.
Adsorption is an exothermic process because when a gas is adsorbed on a solid surface,the residual forces of the surface decrease,leading to a decrease in enthalpy $(\Delta H < 0)$.
The spontaneity of the process is governed by the Gibbs free energy equation: $\Delta G = \Delta H - T \Delta S$.
Since the movement of gas molecules is restricted upon adsorption,entropy decreases $(\Delta S < 0)$. For $\Delta G$ to be negative,$\Delta H$ must be negative,confirming that adsorption is exothermic.
The reversibility of physisorption (Reason) is a characteristic property of physical adsorption but does not explain why the process is exothermic.

Freundlich adsorption isotherm fails at which of the following condition?
A
High temperature
B
Low temperature
C
High pressure
D
Low pressure

Solution

(C) The Freundlich adsorption isotherm is the mathematical representation for the variation of the extent of adsorption $(x/m)$ with pressure $(p)$ at a given temperature.
$x/m = k \cdot p^{1/n}$ where $n > 1$.
Here,'$x$' is the mass of the gas adsorbed on mass '$m$' of the adsorbent at pressure '$p$'.
'$k$' and '$n$' are constants that depend on the nature of the adsorbent and the gas at a particular temperature.
Experimentally,it was determined that the extent of gas adsorption varies with pressure raised to the power $1/n$ until saturation pressure $p_s$ is reached.
At high pressure,the value of $x/m$ becomes independent of pressure,meaning the equation $x/m = k \cdot p^{1/n}$ no longer holds as $1/n$ approaches $0$.
Thus,the Freundlich adsorption isotherm fails at high pressure.

Solution

(A) colloid is a heterogeneous system in which one substance is dispersed (dispersed phase) as very fine particles in another substance called the dispersion medium.
The essential difference between a true solution and a colloid is the particle size.
In a true solution,the constituent particles are ions or small molecules.
In a colloid,the dispersed phase consists of particles of a single macromolecule or an aggregate of many atoms,ions,or molecules.
Colloidal particles are larger than simple molecules but small enough to remain suspended.

When animal skin is soaked in tannin,which contains negatively charged colloidal particles,mutual coagulation occurs.
This process is known as tanning,which hardens the leather.
Since the assertion states the nature of the skin and the reason explains the charge responsible for the tanning process,the reason is the correct explanation for the assertion.
