CHAPTER 3
Very weak forces of attraction exist among gas molecules. Forces are
mostly wander wall forces.
Gases exert pressure on the wall of container ; the pressure of gas is due
to the collisions of gas molecules with each other and with walls of
container
Units of pressure
Atmosphere(atm): is the force exerted by 76 cm long Hg column on area
of 1 cm2 at 0° C at sea level i.e. 1atm =76 cm Hg or 1 tam = 760 mm Hg.
SI unit: is Nm-2 or Pascal ( 1 tam = 101325 Nm-2)
Torre : It is a smaller unit of pressure ( 1 torr = 1 mmHg)
Although masses and sizes of different gasses are different but volume of
gas does not depend on sizes and molar masses because there are large
no. of spaces among gas molecules.

Gases with greater size are more non ideal because greater size means
greater electronic cloud ,greater polarizability greater forces of attraction
greater value of "a" and "b" so gas deviates from ideal behavior.
Gases deviate from ideal behavior at high temperature and low pressure
because the forces of attraction become significant.
NOTE :
The Vander walls constant ―a‖ shows the forces of attractions among gas
molecules such that larger value of ―a‖ for a gas shows stronger forces
and vice versa.
The Vander Walls constant ―b‖ shows the excluded which depends on
size of gas molecules such that larger the size of gas molecules , high will
be value of b, and vice versa.
Excluded volume (b) is not equal to actual volume of gas molecules but
b=4Vm
Smaller the value of Vander walls constant a and b more ideal will be gas
NOTE :
You can form direct and inverse relations in the above given formula when
question will be about increment or decrement of one value with respect to
other. This tip will help u a lot.

When we mover from left to right in period the members of group 3 A and
6A abnormally low values of ionization energy.
Actually members of 2A and 5A groups have stable configurations so
they have greater values of ionization energies..the groups 3A and 6A
have low energies than 2A and 5A.
ionization energy is directly proportional to stability
Fluorine has lesser electron affinity than chlorine, this is because fluorine
has smaller size greater nuclear attraction electrons are tightly bond to the
atom when an electron is added to atom them the already present
electrons offer repulsion to the incoming electron energy is utilized to
overcome this repulsion so the energy released in the form of electron
affinity decreases.
Group members of 2A 5A and 8A show lesser electron affinity because of
their stable electronic configurations.
If electro negativity difference is 1.7 or more, the bond will be ionic and
If electro negativity difference less than 1.7 bond will be covalent.
A polar covalent bond is formed between dissimilar atoms.
Non polar covalent bond is formed between similar atoms.
Co-ordinate covalent bond is formed between electron pair donor and

In VESPER theory double bond is considered as single bond for the
geometry of molecules.
This is an IMPORTANT point to remember in VSEPR. The more electrons

Spontaneous reactions are irreversible
Non spontaneous reactions are reversible
A spontaneous process is capable of proceeding in a given direction without
needing to be driven by an outside source of energy.
The laws of thermodynamics govern the direction of a spontaneous process,
ensuring that if a sufficiently large number of individual interactions are
involved, then the direction will always be in the direction of increasedentropy.
An endergonic reaction (also called a no spontaneous reaction) is a chemical
reaction in which the standard change in free energy is positive and energy is
absorbed.

The solution is homogeneous, which means that both solute and
solvent are in the same state which cannot be differentiated easily.
The solution is stable, which means that the solute particles will not
settle down in time.
The properties of a solution are different from the solute and solvent. In
the case of solid solutions like alloys, the properties like melting point,
refractive index are entirely different from the parent metals. Similarly
for liquid solutions, the melting point and boiling point are different from
a pure solvent.
Saturated solution is a solution to which no more solute can be added
at a particular temperature. As temperature affects the solubility of a
substance, a saturated solution at lower temperature may become a
dilute solution at higher temperature.
It is a solution to which more solute can be added to dissolve. They are
also otherwise called dilute solutions. The concentration of a solution
is very low in an unsaturated solution.
Due to the high dielectric constant and high intermolecular space, the
solutes can undergo either dissociative dissolving or undissociative
dissolving.
Solubility is a measure that denotes the maximum amount of substance
that can be dissolved in a solvent in a saturated solution. It is the
amount of solute present in 100ml of a saturated solution at a particular
temperature. It depends on :
Non-ideal solutions
Solutions of above type show negative deviation from Raoult‘s law

CHAPTER 10
The interconversion of electrical and chemical energies take place in
electrolytic cells and in galvanic or voltaic cells.
Current can pas through conductor due to free electrons present in
metallic lattice.
Electronic conduction is also called metallic conduction.
The flow of electric current through an electrolyte due to movement of
ions not due to electrons.
Oxidation is : addition of oxygen , removal of hydrogen , removal of
electrons
The oxidation number for an atom in its elemental form is always zero.
o A substance is elemental if both of the following are true:
only one kind of atom is present
charge = 0
o Examples:
S8: The oxidation number of S = 0
Fe: The oxidation number of Fe = 0
The oxidation number of a monatomic ion = charge of the monatomic
ion.
o Examples:
Oxidation number of S2- is -2.
Oxidation number of Al3+ is +3.
The oxidation number of all Group 1A metals = +1 (unless elemental).
The oxidation number of all Group 2A metals = +2 (unless elemental).
Hydrogen (H) has two possible oxidation numbers:
o +1 when bonded to a nonmetal
o -1 when bonded to a metal
Oxygen (O) has two possible oxidation numbers:
o -1 in peroxides (O22-)....pretty uncommon
o -2 in all other compounds...most common
The oxidation number of fluorine (F) is always -1.
The sum of the oxidation numbers of all atoms (or ions) in a neutral
compound = 0.
The sum of the oxidation numbers of all atoms in a polyatomic ion =
charge on the polyatomic ion.
When assigning oxidation numbers to the elements in a substance, take
a systematic approach. Ask yourself the following questions:
Is the substance elemental?
Nelson cell or castner-kellner cell .In this cell anode is made of titanium
and cathode is made of stell or mercury.
Oxygen requires a higher voltage because it is a gas, whereas Sn is in a
solid state and requires less voltage for electrolysis to occur.
Anodized aluminum can be nearly as hard as diamond under the right
anodizing process.
Because of its strength and durability, anodized aluminum is also used in
a number of other applications. Many of the satellites circling the Earth are
protected from space debris by layers of anodized aluminum.
The purpose of a salt bridge is not to move electrons from the electrolyte,
rather to maintain charge balance because the electrons are moving from
one half cell to the other. The electrons flow from the anode to the
cathode.
The salt bridge serves two related functions. The primary function is to
complete the circuit so that charge can flow from one half-cell to the other.
The second is to balance the mass by allowing the anion to move to the
half-cell where additional cations are being produced.
without the salt bridge, the solution in the anode compartment would
become positively charged and the solution in the cathode compartment
would become negatively charged,because of the charge imbalance,the
electrode reaction would quickly come to a halt,therefore It helps to
maintain the flow of electrons from the oxidation half cell to a reduction
half cell,this completes the circuit..
the standard electrode potential is the 'potential' of a redox system to lose
or gain electrons when compared to the standard hydrogen electrode -
assigned a value of 0 volts.
Electrode potential is the measure of the tendency of an electrode to
loose or gain electron (s).
In other words electrode potential describes the tendency of an
element to oxidize or reduce.
Electrode potential also determines the chemical activity of an
element.
Unit of electrode potential is "VOLT".
By convention standard electrode potentials are written as:
oxidized state + ne- ↔ reduced state
The more negative the Eo value, the further the equilibrium lies to the left (i.e. the
more readily the element loses electrons and forms ions). The more positive the
Eo value, the further the equilibrium lies to the right (i.e. the less readily the
element loses electrons and forms ions).
Since the values are given in their ability to be reduced, the larger the standard
reduction potentials, the easier they are to be reduced, in other words, they are
simply better oxidizing agents. For example, F2 has 2.87 V and Li+ has -3.05 V.
F2 reduces easily and is therefore a good oxidizing agent. In contrast, Li+ would
rather undergo oxidation (it is hence a good reducing agent). Thus Zn2+ whose
standard reduction potential is -0.76 V can be oxidized by any other electrode
whose standard reduction potential is greater than -0.76 V (example,
Cu2+(0.16 V) and can be reduced by any electrode with standard reduction
potential less than -0.76 V (example, Na+(-2.71 V).
A reducing agent, or reductant, loses electrons and is oxidized in a
chemical reaction. A reducing agent is typically in one of its lower possible
oxidation states, and is known as the electron donor. A reducing agent is
oxidized, because it loses electrons in the redox reaction. Examples of
reducing agents include the earth metals, formic acid, and sulfite
compounds.

Rate of reaction =

Units of rate of reaction = moles dm-3sec-1
𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑐𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 𝑖𝑛 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛
Average rate =
𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒
The rate of a reaction when concentrations of reactant are unity is called
specific rate constant or velocity constant of a reaction.
The overall reaction rate depends almost entirely on the rate of the
slowest step. If the first step is the slowest, and the entire reaction must
wait for it, then it is the rate-determining step.
Physical methods to determine the rate of reaction:
Spectrometry is applied when a reactant or product aborbs ultraviolet ,
visible , or infrared radiations .
Electrical method is applied when reactants or products involve ionic
species.
Dilatometric method is applied for those reactions which involve small
volume changes.
Refractometric method is applied for those reactions when reactants or
products change their refractive indxes.
Optical rotation method is applied for those reactions when anyone
reactant or product is optically active.
Molecules must collide in order to react.
In order to effectively initiate a reaction, collisions must be sufficiently
energetic (kinetic energy) to break chemical bonds; this energy is known
as the activation energy.
As the temperature rises, molecules move faster and collide more
vigorously, greatly increasing the likelihood of bond breakage upon
collision.
All reactions involving two reactants require collisions between particles to
proceed.
Not all collisions taking place between particles results in a reaction.
In the middle of a reaction, there is a configuration of the particles, which
is difficult to achieve - this is the Transition State.
The total kinetic energy of reactant molecules must be at least as high as
the activation energy in order to achieve the Transition State so the
reaction can proceed.
The Transition State does not always proceed to the products of the
reaction - it can also return to reactant molecule
An activated complex is an intermediate state that is formed during the
conversion of reactants into products. An activated complex is the
structure that results at the maximum energy point along the reaction
path. The activation energy of a chemical reaction is the difference
between the energy of the activated complex and the energy of the
reactants.

Order of reaction = n = 1 +
𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑎 2/𝑎1
activation energy, in chemistry, the minimum amount of energy that is
required to activate atoms or molecules to a condition in which they can
undergo chemical transformation or physical transport.
Activation energy (Ea) = Threshold energy - Average kinetic energy
of molecules
Rate of reaction ∝ surface area
Rate of reaction ∝ Light
Rate of reaction ∝ concentration of reactants
Rate of reaction ∝ temperature
The exponential factor is dimensionless, the pre-exponential factor
or Arrhenius constant (A) has the same unit as the unit of the rate
constant (k).
The equation relates k, the rate constant for a given chemical reaction, with
the temperature, T, the activation energy for the reaction, Ea , the pre-
exponential factor A, and the universal gas constant, R.
High temperature and low activation energy favor larger rate constants, and
therefore speed up the reaction.
The equation is a combination of the concepts of activation energy and the
Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution.
Arrhenius plots show that reaction rates are inversely proportional to
temperature changes
The negative slope from the Arrhenius plot gives the activation energy,
Ea: slope = -Ea/R
Extrapolation of the Arrhenius plot back to the y-intercept gives lnA
The Arrhenius plot shows how activation energy and temperature affect the
sensitivity of the reaction rate

initiate a reaction.
Catalyst Poison: There are certain substances which decrease or
destroy the activity of the catalyst. Such substances are known as
catalytic poisons. E.g. arsenic destroys the catalytic activity of the
platinum catalyst in the manufacture of sulphuric acid.
Catalyst Promoter: There are certain substances which increase the
activity of the catalyst. Such substances are known as catalyst promoters
e.g. Mo acts as a promoter in the manufacture of ammonia by I-laber‘s
process.

Upto group (iv) metallic bonds are present (ionic, covalent also)
which get stronger as size decreases and no. of bond increases. So
melting and boiling point decreases from top to bottom in a group
and increases from left to right in a period.
From group (iv) to group (viii) as Vander Wal forces are present
between atoms which increases as size increases so M.P and B.P
increases form top to bottom and decreases from left to right.

Hybridization
Atoms can broadly bond to form either covalent or ionic compounds. The
concept of hybridization was introduced to explain covalent bonding. So, if
atoms are combining to form ionic compounds like NaCl, they use ions to
combine, i.e they are losing or gaining electron(s), so the concept of
hybridisation is not required here. When atoms bond covalently,some of the
atomic orbitals undergo intermixing of energies to yield a set of hybridised
orbitals which are equivalent in energy. These new, hybrid orbitals are used
to overlap with hybrid or unhybridised orbitals of other atoms, forming a

Chemistry of Reactions
Bonding species
Electrophile:
Heterolytic fission;
shared e- pairs is taken by 1 of bonded atom only
ions are produced
electrophile (+ve) and nucleophile (-ve) are produced
products are diamagnetic
The reactions carried upon by heterolytic fission are called ionic or
polar reactions
Types of Reactions
Addition Reactions
Substituition Reactions
Elimination Reaction
Addition Reactions
The reactions which involved the addition of different compounds and
finally give a single product are called addition reactions
E.g Benzene+3H2 Cyclohexane
Carbonyl Compounds give Nucleophilic Addition Reactions
Substituition Reactions
Substitution reaction (also known as single displacement reaction or
single replacement reaction) is a chemical reaction during which one
functional group in a chemical compound is replaced by another
functional group
SN1 mechanism
Effects of R-
In an SN1 reaction, the key step is the loss of the leaving group to form
the intermediate carbocation. The more stable the carbocation is, the
easier it is to form, and the faster the SN1 reaction will be. Some
students fall into the trap of thinking that the system with the less
stable carbocation will react fastest, but they are forgetting that it is the
generation of the carbocation that is rate determining.
-LG
The only event in the rate determining step of the SN1 is breaking the C-
LG bond. For alcohols it is important to remember that -OH is a very
poor leaving. In the reactions with HX, the -OH is protonated first to
give an oxonium, providing the much better leaving group, a water
molecule (see scheme below).
Nu
Since the nucleophile is not involved in the rate determining step of an
SN1 reaction, the nature of the nucleophile is unimportant. In the
reactions of alcohols with HX, the reactivity trend of HI > HBr > HCl > HF
is not due to the nucleophilicity of the halide ion but the acidity of HX
which is involved in generating the leaving group prior to the rate
determining step
SN2 mechanism
rate = k [Nu][R-LG]
Effects of R-
Reactivity order : CH3- > CH3CH2- > (CH3)2CH- > (CH3)3C-
For alcohols reacting with HX, methyl and 1o systems are more likely to
react via an SN2 reaction since the carbocations are too high energy for
the SN1 pathway to occur.
-LG
Once again the leaving group is a water molecule formed by
protonation of the -OH group. -OH on its own is a poor leaving group.
Nu
Since the nucleophile is involved in the rate determining step, the
nature of the nucleophile is very important in an SN2 reaction. More
reactive nucleophiles will favor an SN2 reaction.

Amino Acids
Amino Acids
a) General structure of a-aminoacids;
The naturally occurring amino acids have a common structure. Amino
acids, as the name implies, have two functional groups, an amino group
(–NH 2) and a carboxyl group (–COOH). These groups are joined to a
single (aliphatic) carbon. In organic chemistry, the carbon directly
attached to a carboxyl group is the alpha (α) position, so the amino
acids in proteins are all alpha‐amino acids. The side chains that
distinguish one amino acid from another are attached to the alpha
carbon, so the structures are often written as shown in Figure , where R
stands for one of the 20 side chains:
If you look again at the general structure of an amino acid, you will see
that it has both a basic amine group and an acidic carboxylic acid group.
This is the form that amino acids exist in even in the solid state.
b) Nature of R Group:
The 20 naturally occurring α-amino acids used by cells to synthesise

Promoting Proline
Mother Methionine
Language Leucine
These amino acids do not have any charge on the 'R' group. These
amino acids participate in hydrogen bonding of protein structure. The
amino acids in this group are serine, threonine, tyrosine, cysteine,
glutamine and aspargine.
There are several amino acids but only 20 are involved in protein
synthesis
Such amino acids that synthesize proteins are called Standard
Amino Acids
Such amino acids that can’t synthesize proteins are called Non-
standard Amino Acids
Essential Amino Acids are those amino acids which our body can’t
synthesize
Those amino acids which our body can synthesize are called Non-
essential Amino Acids
The amino group and carboxyl group can be present on same
carbon atoms or may be on different carbon atoms
All those amino acids that synthesize proteins contain both amino
and carboxyl group on same carbon atom,hence called α-amino
acids
Hydrolysis of Protein:
A peptide bond can be broken down by hydrolysis (the adding of
water). The peptide bonds that are formed within proteins have a
tendency to break spontaneously when subjected to the presence of
water (metastable bonds) releasing about 10 kJ/mol of free energy.
This process, however, is very slow. Living organisms use enzymes to
broken down or to form peptide bonds.
Macromolecules:
a)addition polymer:
Polymers are long chain giant organic molecules are assembled from
many smaller molecules called monomers. Polymers consist of many
repeating monomer units in long chains. A polymer is analogous to a
necklace made from many small beads (monomers). Many monomers
are alkenes or other molecules with double bonds which react by

b) Condensation Polymerization:
Condensation polymers are any kind of polymers formed through a
condensation reaction—where molecules join together—losing small
molecules as by-products such as water or methanol.
monomers must be difunctional
single step

Polyesters:
A polyester is made by a reaction involving an acid with two -COOH
Uses:
as textile fibre.it has a combination of high
strength,elasticity,toughness and abrasion resistance.
c)Structure of Protein;
Proteins are large biological molecules, or macromolecules, consisting
of one or more long chains of amino acid residues. Proteins perform a
vast array of functions within living organisms, including catalyzing
metabolic reactions, replicating DNA, responding to stimuli, and
transporting molecules from one location to another. Proteins differ
from one another primarily in their sequence of amino acids, which is
dictated by the nucleotide sequence of their genes, and which usually
results in folding of the protein into a specific three-dimensional
structure that determines its activity.
Examples: fructose,glucose,glactose,mannose
Dissacharides or oligosaccharides:
they are formed by condensation of 2 to 9 monosacharides.
Crystalline solids

origin which are soluble in organic solvents and belong to a very
heterogenous group of substances.
insoluble in water but soluble in non-polar solvents i-e ether,
benzene etc
primary building blocks are fatty acids,Glycerol and sterol.
fats and oils are most imp lipids found in liviong organism.
animals,plants are natural source of lipids.
Structure Of Lipids;
they are triesters formed from glycerol and long chain acids called fatty

Classification of Lipids:
REx
Hydrolysis Of Lipids;
triglycerides are easily hydrolyzed by enzyme called ,lipases to glycerol
and fatty acids.
Sponification:
it is hydrolysis of fats and oils when react with alkali to form salt of
carboxylic acid (soap) and glycerol.
Hardening of oils:
During hydrogenation, vegetable oils are hardened by reacting them
with hydrogen gas at about 60ºC. A nickel catalyst is used to speed up
the reaction. The double bonds are converted to single bonds by the
hydrogenation. In this way unsaturated oils can be made into saturated
fats.
Saponification Number:
Saponification value (or "saponification number" also referred to as
"sap" in short) represents the number of milligrams of potassium
hydroxide required to saponify 1g of fat under the conditions specified.
Example; saponification no. of glycerol tripalmitate is
208.
Uses of lipids:
Lipids are used by organisms for energy storage, as a signalling
molecule (e.g., steroid hormones), and as a structural component of
cell membranes.
