In gene therapy of adenosine deaminase $\text{(ADA)}$ deficiency,the patient requires periodic infusion of genetically engineered lymphocytes because:
A
Gene isolated from marrow cells producing $\text{ADA}$ is introduced into cells at embryonic stages.
B
Lymphocytes from patient's blood are grown in culture,outside the body.
C
Retroviral vector is introduced into these lymphocytes.
D
Genetically engineered lymphocytes are not immortal cells.

Solution

(D) In the gene therapy for $\text{ADA}$ deficiency,functional $\text{ADA}$ $\text{cDNA}$ is introduced into the patient's lymphocytes using a retroviral vector.
These genetically engineered lymphocytes are then reintroduced into the patient.
However,these lymphocytes are not immortal,meaning they have a finite lifespan and eventually die.
Therefore,the patient requires periodic infusions of these genetically engineered cells to maintain the production of the $\text{ADA}$ enzyme.

Western Ghats have a large number of plant and animal species that are not found anywhere else. Which of the following terms is used to denote such species?
A
Keystone species
B
Endemic species
C
Vulnerable species
D
Threatened species

Solution

(B) Species that are confined to a specific geographic region and are not found anywhere else in the world are known as $Endemic$ species.
Western Ghats are a biodiversity hotspot known for a high degree of endemism,meaning many of its flora and fauna are unique to that region.
$Keystone$ species are those that have a disproportionately large effect on their environment relative to their abundance.
$Vulnerable$ and $Threatened$ species refer to the conservation status of organisms based on their risk of extinction,not their geographic distribution.

When electromagnetic radiation of wavelength $300 \ nm$ falls on the surface of a metal,electrons are emitted with the kinetic energy of $1.68 \times 10^5 \ J \ mol^{-1}$. What is the minimum energy needed to remove an electron from the metal? $(h = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \ J \ s, c = 3 \times 10^8 \ m \ s^{-1}, N_A = 6.022 \times 10^{23} \ mol^{-1})$
A
$2.31 \times 10^6 \ J \ mol^{-1}$
B
$3.84 \times 10^4 \ J \ mol^{-1}$
C
$3.84 \times 10^{-19} \ J \ mol^{-1}$
D
$2.31 \times 10^5 \ J \ mol^{-1}$

Solution

(D) The energy of one photon is given by $E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}$.
Substituting the values: $E = \frac{(6.626 \times 10^{-34} \ J \ s)(3 \times 10^8 \ m \ s^{-1})}{300 \times 10^{-9} \ m} = 6.626 \times 10^{-19} \ J$.
For $1 \ mol$ of photons,the total energy is $E_{total} = E \times N_A = 6.626 \times 10^{-19} \times 6.022 \times 10^{23} \approx 3.99 \times 10^5 \ J \ mol^{-1}$.
According to the photoelectric effect equation,$E_{total} = \Phi + K.E.$,where $\Phi$ is the work function (minimum energy).
$\Phi = E_{total} - K.E. = 3.99 \times 10^5 \ J \ mol^{-1} - 1.68 \times 10^5 \ J \ mol^{-1} = 2.31 \times 10^5 \ J \ mol^{-1}$.

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: $Cr^{2+}$ is oxidising and $Mn^{3+}$ is reducing in nature.
Statement $II$: $Sc^{3+}$ compounds are repelled by the applied magnetic field.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
A
Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are correct
B
Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are incorrect
C
Statement $I$ is correct but Statement $II$ is incorrect
D
Statement $I$ is incorrect but Statement $II$ is correct

Solution

(D) Statement $I$ is incorrect because $Cr^{2+}$ $(3d^4)$ is a reducing agent as it changes to $Cr^{3+}$ ($3d^3$,stable $t_{2g}^3$ configuration),and $Mn^{3+}$ $(3d^4)$ is an oxidising agent as it changes to $Mn^{2+}$ ($3d^5$,stable half-filled $d^5$ configuration).
Statement $II$ is correct because $Sc^{3+}$ has a $3d^0$ configuration,meaning it has no unpaired electrons. Therefore,it is diamagnetic and is repelled by an applied magnetic field.

Standard electrode potential for the cell with cell reaction $Zn_{(s)} + Cu^{2+}_{(aq)} \rightarrow Zn^{2+}_{(aq)} + Cu_{(s)}$ is $1.1 \ V$. Calculate the standard Gibbs energy change for the cell reaction. (Given $F = 96487 \ C \ mol^{-1}$)
A
$-200.27 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
B
$-212.27 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
C
$-212.27 \ J \ mol^{-1}$
D
$-200.27 \ J \ mol^{-1}$

Solution

(B) The formula for standard Gibbs energy change is $\Delta G^{\circ} = -nFE^{\circ}_{cell}$.
Here,$n = 2$ (number of electrons transferred in the reaction).
$E^{\circ}_{cell} = 1.1 \ V$.
$F = 96487 \ C \ mol^{-1}$.
Substituting the values: $\Delta G^{\circ} = -2 \times 96487 \times 1.1 \ C \cdot V \ mol^{-1}$.
$\Delta G^{\circ} = -212271.4 \ J \ mol^{-1}$.
Converting to $kJ \ mol^{-1}$: $\Delta G^{\circ} = \frac{-212271.4}{1000} \approx -212.27 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$.
