20. Calculate the vapour pressure of the solution. when the mole fraction of the
solute is 0.5, the vapour pressure of the pure solvent is 0.6 atm.
P0P = x2
Po Another Method:
X2 = 0.5, P0 = 0.6 atm P = P 0 x X1

0.6 P = 0.5 P0 = 0.6 atm. X2 = 0.5

0.6 X1 + X2 = 1, X1 : 1 X2
0.6 P =0.5 x 0.6 = 0.30
X1 = 1 0.5 = 0.5
P = 0.6 0.3 P = 0.6 x 0.5 = 0.3 atm
P = 0.3 atm P = 0.3 atm

21. Substantiate with reason NH3 is a Nucleophile and AlCl3 is a electrophile.

Nucleophiles are electron rich substances containing atoms which have

at least an unshared pair of electrons. These reagents are nucleus
loving. (Nucleo = nucleus, philic - loving).
The Nitrogen atom in NH3 has an unshared pair of electron. So it is a
nucleophile.
Electrophiles are electron deficient. This deficiencies accounts for their
affinity for electrons.
(electro = electron, philic = loving)
The Aluminium in AlCl3 has incomplete valence shell. It needs two more
electrons to complete its octet. AICl3 is electron deficient. So, it acts as
an electrophile.

ii. How will you determine equivalent mass of an element by oxide method.

This method is employed to determine the equivalent mass of

those elements which readily form their oxides. eg. Magnesium & Copper
etc. Oxide of an element can be formed by direct method or by indirect
method. Magnesium forms its oxide directly on heating.

2 Mg + O2 2MgO

In the case of copper, its oxide is obtained in an indirect

manner. ie copper is dissolved in con.HNO3 and copper (II) Nitrate formed
after evaporation is strongly heated to give copper (II) oxide.

Cu + 4HNO3 Cu (NO3)2 + 2H2O + 2NO2

2Cu (NO3)2 2CuO + 4 NO2 + O2

Calculation:

Mass of the metal taken = W1g

Mass of the Oxide of the metal = W 2 g
Mass of Oxygen = W 2 W1g
(W2 W1) of Oxygen has
combined with W 1g of the metal
8g of Oxygen will combine = W1 x 8
with ( W2 - W1)

This value represents the equivalent mass of metal.

ii) Describe the principle process involved in the purification of the metal by this RT
Zone Refining method -IV

8 www.kalviselvam.in
 P. BAKKIANATHAN. M.Sc.,M Ed., MPhil., M.Phil, PhD.,

This method is employed for preparing highly pure metal such as

silicon, Tellurium, Germanium which are used as semiconductors. It is
based on the principle that melting point of a substance is lower by the
presence of impurities. consequently, when an impure molten metal is
cooled, crystals of pure metal are solidified and the impurities remain
behind the remaining metal.

The process consists in casting the impure metal in the form of a

bar. A circular heater fitted around this bar is slowly moved longitudinally
from one end to the other. At the heated zone the bar melts and as the
heater moves on, pure metal crystallizes, while the impurities pass into
the adjacent molten part. In this way the impurities are swept from one
end of the bar to the other. By repeating the process, ultra pure metal
can be obtained.

ii.Distinguish between ores and minerals with suitable example.

Ore
i) The mineral from which
the metal can be readily
and profitably extracted is
known as ore.
Mineral

which the metal and their
compounds occur in earth
is known as mineral.

ii) All ores are Minerals ii) All minerals are not ores.

Write a note on principal Quantum Number.

a) ii) The electrons inside an atom are arragned in different energy level called
electron shells or orbits. Each shell is characterized by a quantum number
called principal quantum number. This is represented by the letter n and n
can have values 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. The first level is also known as K level, second
as L level, third as M level, fourth as N level and so on. The first or K level
is the orbit nearest to the nucleus and next one is second or L level and so
on.

i) Explain the liquification of gases by Claudes Mehtod.

ii) Classify the following gases NH3, N2, H2, CO2 as permanent and
temporary gases.

b) In this method compressed air is allowed to do mechanical work of

expansion. This work is done at the expense of kinetic
energy of the gas and hence a fall of temperature is
noted. This principle is combined with joule Thomson
effect and utilized in claudes process of liquefaction of
air. Air is compressed to about 200 atm and is passed
through the pipe ABC. At C, a part of the air goes down
the spiral towards the jet nozzle J and a part of the air is
led into the cylinder D provided with an air tight piston.
Here the air moves the piston outwards and expands in
volume as a result of which considerable cooling is
produced. The cooled air passes up the liquefying chamber during which
process it cools the portion of the incoming compressed air. The Precooled
incoming compressed air then experiences joule-Thomson expansion when
passed through jet nozzle J and gets cooled further. The above process
takes place repeatedly till the air is liquefied.

b) ii)

Temporary gases permanent gases.

NH3 & CO2
In the case of NH3 & CO2
whose Tc values are near and
below the ordinary temperatures,
they can be liquefied easily by
increasing the pressure alone at
their respective Tc Values.
10 www.kalviselvam.in
N2 & H 2
Gases like N2 & H2 have
very low Tc values and hence
they cannot be liquefied unless
cooled to or below their
respective critical temperatures.

strong acid and strong Base.
ii. Define Zeroth law of thermodynamics
(or)
i. Discuss the Principle and procedure involved in purification of
Organic compound by Paper Chromatography.
iii) Why Organic compounds need to be purified.

The enthalpy of neutralization of a strong acid and a strong base is a

constant value equal to -57.32kJ. This value is independent of the nature
of the strong acid and strong base. Strong acids and strong bases exist in
the fully ionized form in aqueous solutions as below.

H3O + OH 2H2O () H0 = -57.32 kJ

The H ions produced in water by the acid molecules exists as H3O+c
During the neutralization reaction, water and salt are produced in solution
Thus enthalpy change of neutralization is essentially due

to enthalpy

change per mole of water formed from H3O and OH ions. Therefore, ire
spective of the chemical nature, the enthalpy of neutralization of strong
acid and by strong base is a constant value.

37 (a) (i) Zeroth law of Themodynamics.

It two systems at different temperatures are separately in thermal

equilibrium with a third one. then they tend to be in thermal equilibrium
with themselves.

(I) Paper chromatography

Principle:
The stationary phase is considered to be made up of water
molecules bound to the cellulose network of the paper.

The mobile phase, known as the developing solvent consists of

either one solvent or a mixture of different solvents.

Separation of the mixture into pure compounds takes place by the

partitioning of different compounds between these two Liquid phases. The
mobile phase travels by capillary action through the paper.

12 www.kalviselvam.in
 P. BAKKIANATHAN. M.Sc.,M Ed., MPhil., M.Phil, PhD.,

Type of paper chromatography:

Depending upon the way the solvent travels on the paper, there are
three types of pare chromatography.

(i) Ascending paper chromatography:

The mobile phase moves upwards on the paper strip in this case.

(ii) Descending paper chromatography:

The mobile phase moves downwards on the paper strip.

(iii) Circular or radial paper chromatography.

The mobile phase moves horizontally along a circular sheet of paper.

Procedure:
In the ascending paper chromatography, the mixture of compounds
is applied on the paper as a spot little above the lower end and then this
end is dipped in the solvent. When the solvent has risen more than two third
length of the paper, then it is removed from the solvent. The paper is dried
and is known as chromatogram.

Now the spots for different compounds can be visualized using

some suitable chemicals. The ratio of the distance travelled by the compound
in a particular solvent to that the distance travelled by the solvent is a
constant and is known as retention factor (Rf). This value is used in
identifying the compounds.
Distance travelled by the compound
Rf =
Distance travelled by the solvent.

The organic compounds obtained from natural sources are not pure.
They contain a number of other compounds which occur with them similarly,
the organic compounds prepared in the laboratory are also not pure. They
are found to contain other products formed during the reaction. In order to
investigate the structure and properties of an organic compound it should be
in the purest form. Hence purification of organic compounds become
essential.
