Identify the correct statement from the following.
A
$Lithium$ chloride is deliquescent and crystallises as a hydrate,$LiCl \cdot H_{2}O$.
B
The order of hydration enthalpies of alkaline earth cations is $Be^{2+} < Mg^{2+} < Ca^{2+} < Sr^{2+} < Ba^{2+}$.
C
$Lithium$ and $Magnesium$ show some similarities in their physical properties as they are diagonally placed in the periodic table.
D
$Lithium$ is the softest among all alkali metals.

Solution

(C) $LiCl$ is deliquescent and crystallises from aqueous solution as a hydrate,$LiCl \cdot 2H_{2}O$.
The hydration enthalpies of alkaline earth metal ions decrease with an increase in ionic size down the group.
The correct order of hydration enthalpy is $Be^{2+} > Mg^{2+} > Ca^{2+} > Sr^{2+} > Ba^{2+}$.
$Lithium$ shows a diagonal relationship with $Magnesium$,hence their physical and chemical properties are similar.
$Lithium$ is the hardest among all alkali metals.

One mole of carbon atom weighs $12 \; g$. The number of atoms in it is equal to: (Mass of one carbon-$12$ atom is $1.9926 \times 10^{-23} \; g$)
A
$6.022 \times 10^{23}$
B
$1.2 \times 10^{23}$
C
$6.022 \times 10^{22}$
D
$12 \times 10^{22}$

Solution

(A) The number of atoms in one mole of a substance is defined by Avogadro's number $(N_A)$.
Given that the mass of one mole of carbon is $12 \; g$ and the mass of a single carbon-$12$ atom is $1.9926 \times 10^{-23} \; g$.
The number of atoms $= \frac{\text{Total mass}}{\text{Mass of one atom}} = \frac{12 \; g}{1.9926 \times 10^{-23} \; g} \approx 6.022 \times 10^{23}$ atoms.
Thus,the number of atoms in one mole of carbon is $6.022 \times 10^{23}$.

Which of the following oxides is amphoteric in nature?
A
$CO_{2}$
B
$SnO_{2}$
C
$SiO_{2}$
D
$GeO_{2}$

Solution

(B) $CO_{2}$ is an acidic oxide.
$SnO_{2}$ is an amphoteric oxide,meaning it reacts with both acids and bases.
$SiO_{2}$ is an acidic oxide.
$GeO_{2}$ is predominantly acidic in nature.

$CH_3CH_2CH=CH_2 \xrightarrow{B_2H_6 / H_2O_2, OH^{-}} Z$. What is $Z?$
A
$CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_3$
B
$CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2OH$
C
$CH_3CH_2CH_2CHO$
D
$CH_3CH_2CH(OH)CH_3$

Solution

(B) The reaction of $CH_3CH_2CH=CH_2$ with $B_2H_6$ followed by oxidation with $H_2O_2$ in the presence of $OH^-$ is known as hydroboration-oxidation.
This reaction follows anti-Markovnikov's rule,where the $OH$ group is added to the less substituted carbon atom of the double bond.
Thus,the product $Z$ formed is $CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2OH$ (butan$-1-$ol).

How many $(i)$ $sp^{2}$ hybridised carbon atoms and $(ii)$ $\pi$ bonds are present in the following compound?
Question diagram
A
$8, 5$
B
$7, 5$
C
$8, 6$
D
$7, 6$

Solution

(D) The structure of the compound is methyl phenylpropiolate,$C_6H_5-C \equiv C-COOCH_3$.
$(i)$ The $sp^{2}$ hybridised carbon atoms are the $6$ carbon atoms of the benzene ring and the $1$ carbonyl carbon atom $(C=O)$. Total $sp^{2}$ hybridised carbon atoms = $6 + 1 = 7$.
$(ii)$ The $\pi$ bonds are: $3$ from the benzene ring,$2$ from the triple bond $(C \equiv C)$,and $1$ from the carbonyl group $(C=O)$. Total $\pi$ bonds = $3 + 2 + 1 = 6$.
