Q1. Find out the number of enantiomer, meso isomer and total number of optical isomers for the
following compound
Options:
(a) 3,2,4
(b) 0,2,3
(c) 4,0,4
(d) 0,2,2
JOIN @iitwale on Telegram
Ans. Option (c) is correct
Explanation:
Before solving the or guessing the options, you should check either the given molecule is
symmetrical or unsymmetrical
The given molecule is unsymmetrical as it has group X at one end and group Y at other end
Then after you need to find out the number of chiral carbon
So, the number of chiral carbon in the given compound is: 2
Now come to formula to calculate the number of enantiomer, meso isomer and total number of
optical isomers
1. Number of enantiomer = 2n (n is the number of chiral carbon )

2. Number of meso isomer = ZERO
Note:
A meso compound is one which is optically inactive although have more than one chiral carbons.
3. Total number of optical isomer= 2n + 0
So in the above question,
Chiral carbon, n= 2
So Number of enantiomer = 2n = 22 = 4
Number of meso isomer = ZERO
Total number of optical isomer= 2n + 0 = 4+0= 4
Q 2. The number of enantiomer in a glucose molecule is
Options: JOIN @iitwale on Telegram

(a) 16
(b) 12
(c) 4
(d) 9
Ans. Option (a) is correct
Explanation:
First you should look at the glucose structure

And the find out the number of chiral carbon which will be denoted by n
Here in Glucose molecule the number of chiral carbon is = 4, as shown in the figure
As we have seen the formula above to calculate the number of enantiomer, = 2n
So, total number of enantiomer in Glucose molecule is: 24 = 16
Note:
• The combination of d(+) and l(-) isomer is known as enantiomer
• Enantiomer reacts with different speed with different chiral reagent
• The stereoisomers which are non superimposable mirror images of each other is known as
enantiomer
Q 3. Enantiomer can be separated by use of
Options:
(a) Enzymes
(b) Physical method
(c) Chemisorption
(d) Rotation
Explanation:
Enantiomer has different biological properties and hence can be separated by enzymes
Q4. Select the correct stability order of the conformation /Rotamers/ Rotational isomers of Ethane
Molecule
Options:
(a) Partially Eclipsed > Fully Eclipsed > Anti-staggered > Skew or Gouche
(b) Skew or Gouche > Partially Eclipsed > Fully Eclipsed > Anti-staggered
(c) Anti-staggered > Skew or Gouche > Partially Eclipsed > Fully Eclipsed
(d) Fully Eclipsed > Anti-staggered > Skew or Gouche > Partially Eclipsed >
Explanation:
• The isomers which can be produced by the free rotation about single bond are known as
conformation /Rotamers/ Rotational isomers and this phenomenon is called as conformational
analysis
• These isomers can be represented by
1. sawhorse projection
2. Newman’s projection formula
3. A staggered conformer is more stable than an eclipsed conformer as the latter involves
unfavourable energy interactions between atoms.
4. In conformational analysis (energetics study of different rotational conformers or rotamers),
structures are represented by *Newman projection * (atoms and bonds are viewed along the axis of
rotation).
Q 5. Beckmann rearrangement is not catalysed by
Options:
(a) H2SO4
(b) P2O5
(c) BF3
(d) NaOH

Q 16. Which of the following statements is not correct about order of a reaction?
Options:
(a) The order of a reaction can be a fractional number

(b) Order of a reaction is experimentally determined quantity
(c) The order of a reaction is always equal to the sum of the stoichiometric coefficients of reactants
in the balanced chemical equation for a reaction
(d) The order of a reaction is the sum of the powers of molar concentration of the reactants in the

Ans. Option (c) is not correct
Explanation:
Order of reaction is equal to the sum of powers of concentration of the reactants in rate law
expression.
For any chemical reaction

Rate = k [A]x [B]y
Order = x + y
Order of reaction can be a fraction also. Order of reaction is not always equal to sum of the
stoichiometric coefficients of reactants in the balanced chemical equation. For a reaction it may or
may not be equal to sum of stoichiometric coefficient of reactants.

(b) order of overall reaction is less than the molecularity of the slowest step
(c) order of overall reaction is greater than molecularity of the slowest step
(d) order of overall reaction is same as molecularity of the slowest step
Explanation:
For a complex reaction, order of overall reaction = molecularity of slowest step

As rate of overall reaction depends upon total number of molecules involved in slowest step of the
reaction. Hence, molecularity of the slowest step is equal to order of overall reaction.

Q 36. As per IUPAC nomenclature, the name of the complex [Co (H2O)4(NH3 )2]C13 is
Options:
(a) tetraaquadiaminecobalt (III) chloride
(b) tetraaquadiamminecobalt (III) chloride
(c) diaminetetraaquacobalt (III) chloride
(d) diamminetctraaquacobalt (III) chloride
Explanation:
First of all, the compound has complex positive part [Co(H2O)4(NH3)2]3+ therefore, according to
IUPAC conventions, positive part will be named first. Secondly, in writing name of complex,
ligands are named first in alphabetical order, irrespective of its charge, hence "ammine" will be
written prior to "aqua".
NOTE: In alphabetical order, original name of ligands are considered not the initials of prefixes.
Also, special precaution should be taken in spelling name of NH3 ligand as it is ammine.
Therefore, name of the complex is [Co(H2O)4(NH3)2]Cl3 is Diamminetetraaqua cobalt (III)
chloride.

Q 39. Due to the presence of ambidentate ligands coordination compounds show isomerism.
Palladium complexes of the type [Pd(C6H5)2(SCN)2] and [Pd(C6H5)2(NCS)2] are
Options:
(a) Coordination isomers

(b) Linkage isomers
(c) Ionisation isomers
(d) Geometrical isomers
Explanation:
The ligand(s) which has two different bonding sites are known as ambident ligands e.g., NCS,NO2
etc
Here, NCS has two binding sites at N and S.
Hence, NCS (thiocyanate) can bind to the metal ion in two ways
M NCS or M → SNC
Thus, coordination compounds containing NCS as a ligand can show linkage isomerism
i.e.,[Pd(C6h5)2(SCN) and [Pd(C6H5)2(NCS)2] are linkage isomers.
Q 40. The oxidation state of Fe in the brown ring complex [Fe(H2O)5NO]SO4 is:
Options:
(a) + 1
(b) + 2
(c) + 3
(d) + 4

In complex [Fe(H2O)5NO]SO4, Sulphate ion  SO24  carries charge= −2. As the complex is neutral,
charge on the complex ion should be +2. As H2O and NO+ carries zero and +1 charges
respectively. Therefore, for the neutral complex we have:
Charge on Fe + (+1) = +2
 Charge on Fe = +1
Thus the oxidation number of Fe in [Fe(H2O)5NO]SO4, is +1.

Q 43. The circuit in figure shows two cells connected in opposition to each other. Cell E1is of emf
12V and internal resistance 4Ω. the cell E2 is of emf 8V and internal resistance 16Ω. Find the
potential difference between the points A and B.
Options:
(a) 11.2 V
(b) 12.1 V
(c) 12.3 V
(d) 12.1 V
Explanation:
Applying Ohm’s law.
Effective resistance = 4Ω + 16Ω = 20Ω and effective emf of two cells = 12  8 = 4V, so the
12  8
I  0.2 A
electric current is given by 4  16
along anti-clockwise direction, since E1>E2.
The direction of flow of current is always from high potential to low potential. Therefore
VB > VA
 VB  8V  (0.2)  16 = VA
Therefore, VB  VA = 11.2 V

Q 62. Consider separate solution of 0.500 M C2H5OH (aq), 0.100 M Mg3(PO4)2(aq), 0.250 M
KBr(aq) and 0.125 M Na3PO4(aq) at 25°C. Which statement is true about these solutions,
assuming all salts to be strong electrolytes?
Options:
(a) They all have the same osmotic pressure

(b) 0.100 M Mg3(PO4)2(aq) has the highest osmotic pressure
(c) 0.125 M Na3PO4(aq) has the highest osmotic pressure
(d) 0.500 M C2H5OH (aq) has the highest osmotic pressure
Explanation:
For strong electrolyte Van’t Hoff factor is number of ions per formula unit of electrolyte.
Effective molarity = Van't Hoff factor  Molarity
Van’t Hoff factor (i) for C2H5OH (aq) = 1

Effective molarity = 0.5 × 1 = 0.5 M
Van’t Hoff factor (i) for KBr (aq) = 2
Van’t Hoff factor (i) for Mg3(PO4)2(aq) = 5
Van’t Hoff factor (i) for Na3PO4 (aq) = 4
Since, effective molarity is same so all their colligative properties will also be same.

Q 109. A first order reaction is 50% completed in 2.12  1012 s. HowJOIN @iitwale
much time would iton
takeTelegram
for
100% completion?
Options:
(a) 1.06  1012 s

(b) 4.24  1024 s
(c) Infinite
(d) 2.12  1012 s
Explanation:
The time taken for half the reaction to complete, i.e., the time in which the concentration of a
reactant is reduced to half of its original value is called half-life period of the reaction.
But it is impossible to perform 100% of the reaction. Whole of the substance never reacts because
in every half-life, 50% of the substance reacts. Hence, time taken for 100% completion of a
reaction is infinite.
Q 110. For the first order reaction, 2N2O5(g)  4NO2(g) + O2(g)
Options:
(a) The concentration of the reactant increases with time
(b) The half-life of the reaction increases with increasing temperature
(c) The half-life of the reaction is independent of initial concentration of the reactant
(d) The reaction proceeds of 99.6% completion in eight half-life duration
Explanation:
Option (a)
For a first order reaction,
 A ]  [ A0 e kt …(i)
where,
[A] = concentration of reactant remaining after time t
[A0] = initial concentration
From equation (i) we can conclude that concentration of reactant decreases exponentially with
time.
Option (b)
Half-life of the reaction can be given as:
In 2
t1 2 
k
where,
k = Rate constant
t1/ 2 = Half-life
Also rise in temperature increases with rate constant (k).
So, rise in temperature increases rate constant (k) and therefore decreases half-life.
Option (c)
Half-life of first order reaction is independent of initial concentration.
Option (d)
Let initially the reactant is 100 moles.
For a first order reaction,
n

where, n = number of half lives
After 8 half lives amount of A remaining is

So, the amount of A reacted is 100 − 0.3906 = 99.6%

Q 112. A small block of mass of 0.1 kg lies on a fixed inclined plane PQ which makes
an angle θ with the horizontal. A horizontal force of 1 N acts on the block through its centre of
mass as shown in the figure. The block remains stationary if (take g = 10 m/s2)
Options:
(a)   45
(b)   45 and a frictional force acts on the block towards P
(c)   45 and a frictional force acts on the block towards Q
(d) None of these
Explanation:
Let F1 be the component of weight and F2 be the component of force 1 N.

F1  mg cos  90     mg sin   0.110sin   sin 
F2  cos 
At   45
F1 = F2
So, no friction will be required to keep the block stationary.
At   45
F1 > F2
So, frictional force will act toward Q.
  45
F1 < F2
So, frictional force will act toward P.
Q 113. In the figure, a ladder of mass m is shown leaning against a wall. It is in static equilibrium
making an angle  with the horizontal floor. The coefficient of friction between the wall and the
ladder is 1 and that between the floor and the ladder is  2 . The normal reaction of the wall on the
ladder is N1 and that of the floor is N2. If the ladder is about to slip, then

(d) 1  0, 2  0 and N1 tan   mg

Explanation:
Since rod is about to slip so both frictions will be limiting

f1  1 N1
f 2  2 N 2
In option (a) and (d) 1 and  2 are 0
Net torque about A should be zero to maintain the position

Q 114. Given in the figure are two blocks A and B of weight 20 N and 100 N, respectively. These
are being pressed against a wall by a force F as shown. If the coefficient of friction
between the blocks is 0.1 and between block B and the wall is 0.15, the frictional force applied
by the wall on block B is :
Options:
(a) 100 N
(b) 80 N
(c) 120 N
(d) 150 N
Explanation:
For block A,
m1 g  1F
20  0.1 F
20
F  200
0.1
Frictional force on block A will be in upward direction and it will be equals to 20N.
So, block A will exert a frictional force of 20 N on block B in downward direction.
So, for block B

(c) y2  6 x  10y + 14 = 0
(d) y2  10x  6y + 14 = 0

We have x2 + y2  6x  6y + 14 = 0
x2  6 x  9  y 2  6 y  9  4  0
x2  6 x  9  y 2  6 y  9  4

So, the centre and the radius of the given circle are:
Centre: (3, 3)
Radius: 2 units
Let the centre of the circle which touches externally the given circle be  g , f 
According to distance formula,
The distance between point  g , f  and (3, 3) is  g  3   f  3

Options:
(a) 3.258 mol kg-1
(b) 2.285 mol kg-1
(c) 0.445 mol kg-1
(d) 2.27 mol kg-1
Explanation:
Given, Molarity of acetic acid solution = 2.00 M
Therefore, Number of moles of acetic acid in 1 L solution = 2.00 mol
Thus, Mass of acetic acid in 1L solution = Number of moles of solute × Molar mass of solute
= 2.00 × 60 = 120 g
Now, given density of the solution = 1.00 g mL−1 JOIN @iitwale on Telegram
Therefore, mass of solution = density of solution × volume of solution
= 1.00 × 1000 = 1000g
Thus mass of solvent = Mass of solution – mass of solute = 1000 – 120 = 880 g = 0.880 Kg
Number of moles of solute 2.00

Hence, Molality of solution = = = = 2.27 mol Kg 1

Q 146. Two numbers are chosen from 1, 3, 5, 7,… 147, 149 and 151 and multiplied together in all
possible ways. The number of ways which will give us the product a multiple of 5, is
Options:
(a) 75
(b) 1030
(c) 95
(d) 1020
Explanation:
In the given numbers 1, 3,5,7,…, 147, 148, 151the numbers which are multiple of 5 are 5, 15, 25,
35,…, 145 which are an arithmetic sequence

gas constant is
Options:
(a) 5
(b) 2
(c) 4
(d) 3
Explanation:
We have,
Universal gas constant, R = kNA
where, k = Boltzmann constant
and NA = Avogadro's number
 R = 1.380  1023  6.023  1023J/Kmol
= 8.31174  8.312
Since, k and NA both have four significant figures, so the value of R is also rounded off up to 4
significant figures.
When number is rounded off, the number of significant figure is reduced.
So, the number of significant figure is 4.

Explanation:
We have,
Equation of line: x − y  5 = 0
Equation of ellipse: x2 + 4y2 = 4
Let A(x1, x1  5) be a point on x  y = 5, then the chord of contact of x2 + 4y2 = 4 with respect to
A is
x x1 + 4y (x1  5) = 4
 xx1  4 yx1  20 y  4
 (x + 4y) x1  (20y + 4) = 0
Since, it passes through a fixed point.
x + 4y = 0 and 20y + 4 = 0

Q 178. A line L passing through the focus of the parabola y2 = 4(x  1), intersects the parabola in
two distinct points. If ’m’ be the slope of the line ‘L’ then
Options:
(a) 1 < m < 1
(b) m< 1or m> 1
(c) m  R

Explanation:
Let y = Y, x 1 = X
Then, the equation becomes Y2 = 4X.
So, the focus = (2, 0)
Any line through the focus is y = m(x  2).
On solving this with y2 = 4 (x  1)
m2(x  2)2 = 4(x  1)
 m2x2 4 (m2 + 1) x + 4 (m2 +1) = 0
If m  0, D = 16 (m2 + 1)2 16m2(m2 + 1)

= 16(m2 + 1) > 0, for all m
But, if m = 0, then x does not have two real distinct values.
So, m  R except m = 0

1
x  y  7  6
2
 2x = y + 7 − 12
 y = 2x + 5
which is also a tangent to the circle
x2 + y2 + 16x + 12y + c =0
 x2 + (2x + 5)2 + 16x + 12(2x + 5) + c =0

 5x2 + 60x +85 + c =0
must have equal roots.
Let  and β be the roots of the equation
Then,  + β = − 12   = − 6 (  = β)
 x = − 6 and y = 2x + 5 = −7
 Point of contact is (− 6, − 7)

Options:
(a) CI < F < S < CO
(b) O < S < F < CI
(c) S < O < CI < F
(d) F < CI < O < S
Explanation:
Generally electron gain enthalpy increases in a period from left to right but decreases in a group on
moving down. Therefore, halogens have very high electron affinities.
Fluorine due to its smaller size has unexpectedly low electron gain enthalpy than CI. Similar is
shown in case of O and S. Thus, the order of electron gain enthalpy is
O < S < F < CI
