CHY101: Engineering Chemistry Revision

Answer all the questions 4  10 = 40 M

1. In a star hotel, clean chlorine-treated water was used in the swimming pool. A guest
stayed in the hotel spent 1 h in a swimming pool and raised a complaint to the
manager that his body was itching and white color patches were observed on the
skin while drying. Immediately, the water sample was sent for testing. As a chemist,
what are the parameters you check and how you do it experimentally? Based on the
results, you should give a solution?

2. Three friends Ram, Rahim, and Rohan purchased fast-charging mobile phones
constructed with NiCad batteries. While charging, Ram's phone exploded after 5 h
of charging. Rahim’s phone charged fully but within 1 h the battery was down to
zero. Rohan's phone was charged fully and worked fine for 48 h without any
problem. Explain the situation faced by friends, using battery chemistry.

3. (a) Soap can destroy COVID-19. Justify this statement in terms of chemical
bonding. (b) A chemist wants to prepare a lubricant for heavy trucks. What are the
ingredients required? How will he prepare the lubricant for heavy trucks and access
its quality?

4. A chemist dissolved silver nitrite in (i) double distilled water, (ii) groundwater, and
(iii) pond water. All three samples were exposed to sunlight. Condition (i) and (ii)
produced black color lumps. In condition (iii) the color changed from colorless to
yellow without any precipitate. Explain the phenomenon of the formation of stable
yellow color solution and black precipitate. The yellow solution has high efficiency
to kill bacteria than the silver nitrate, why?
