Option 1:
0.450 M

Option 2:
0.650 M

Option 3:
0.386 M

Option 4:
0.225 M
Correct Answer:
0.450 M

Solution:
Normality -

Normality: “Number of gram equivalents of solute present in one litre of solution is called normality of
solution”.

Normality (N) = Number of gm. equivalents of solute/volume of solution( litre)

Number of gm. equivalents of solute = w/E =weight of solute/Equivalent weight of solute

N = w / E.V(litre)

0
Equivalent weight = Molar mass/n.

36
Relation between molarity and normality:

Normality X Equivalent weight = Molarity X molar mass.

Normality = Molarity X valency.

Normality = Molarity X number of H+ or OH- ions.

Therefore, 0.450 equivalents = 0.450 moles in 1000ml

So, the molarity = 0.450 M

Therefore, Option(1) is correct

C

Option 3:
Dipole – Induced Dipole Interactions.

Option 4:
Instantaneous Dipole – Induced Dipole Interactions.

Correct Answer:
Instantaneous Dipole – Induced Dipole Interactions.

Solution:
 
Van der Waal Forces -

Van der Waal Forces

Van der Waal force of attraction is the force of attraction between the molecules. This force is weaker
compared to bonds like covalent and ionic bonds. 

Van der Waal forces can be divided into various categories as follows:

Ion-dipole interaction: This type of interaction exists between an ion and a polar molecule like HF, HCl, H2O,
etc. The ion can be like Na+. This type of interaction is responsible for the dissolution of ions in solution.

Dipole-Dipole interaction: This type of interaction exists between two or more polar molecules. These dipoles
can be H-Cl and H-Cl, NH3 and NF3, etc. Hydrogen bonding is a special type of dipole-dipole interaction.

0
Ion-Induced dipole interaction: This type of interaction exists between the ion and non-polar molecule. The
charge on the ion causes the distortion in the electron cloud of the non-polar molecule and thus induces a

36
dipole in the non-polar molecule. Then the ion and the induced-dipole attract each other.

Dipole-Induced dipole interaction: This kind of interaction exists between a polar and a non-polar molecule.
For example, CCl4 in H2O. One of the dipole molecules distorts the electron cloud in the non-polar molecule
and thus creates the dipole in non-polar as well.

S
Instantaneous dipole-dipole interaction: This type of interaction exists between two non-polar molecules.
R
This force is also known as London forces. At any instant, electrons in one non-polar molecule come closer to
each other and then this molecule becomes a dipole for instance. This instantaneous dipole distorts the
E
electron cloud in another non-polar molecule and thus both behave like polar molecules. For example CCl4
and CCl4.
E

 
R

The strength of these forces follows the given order:

Ion-Dipole > Dipole-Dipole > Ion-Induced Dipole > Dipole-Induced Dipole > London Forces
A

-
C

As we have learnt,

This force is sometimes called an induced dipole-induced dipole attraction. Because of the constant motion
of the electrons, an atom or molecule can develop a temporary instantaneous dipole when its electrons are
distributed unsymmetrically about the nucleus.

Hence option number (4) is correct.

Have you ever wondered how do we get various metal like iron, gold, silver, and aluminium, etc and use
them for a variety of purposes. Well in this chapter (General Principle and process of Isolation of metals) you
will be introduced to how do we extract metals from their ores and how do we process it for final
use.society. Metals gave us weapons, tools, ornaments, utensils,

etc. The ‘Seven metals of antiquity’, are gold, copper, silver, lead, tin, iron and mercury.

To obtain a particular metal, we look for minerals. Minerals are basically naturally occurring chemical
substances in the earth's crust which are obtained through mining. Out of many minerals in which a metal
may be found, only a few are viable to be used as source of that metal. Such minerals are known as ores.
Metallurgy  is a process of extracting metals from their ores and modifying the metals as per the needs.
Metallurgy usually refers to the commercial method of extracting metals as opposed to laboratory methods.
It also deals with the chemical, physical, and atomic properties and structures of metals and alloys (mixture

Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases -

All the gas laws that we have discussed like Boyle's law, Charles' Law, Avogadro's Law are merely based on
A

the experimental evidence. There was no theoretical background to justify them. So, the scientists were
curious to know why the gases behave in a peculiar manner under certain set of conditions. From Charles'
law we got to know that the gases expand on heating. But there was no theory to give the reason for such
C

fact. So, there was a need for some theory which could tell about the happenings at the molecular level and
so could answer all the questions arising regarding the behaviour of gases.

Later a theory was given called kinetic molecular theory of gases to provide a sound theoretical basis for
various gas laws. The kinetic theory of gases is based on the following assumptions or postulates: 

Actual volume of gas molecules is negligible in comparison to the total volume of the gas: Postulate says that
all the gases are made up of extremely small particles called molecules dispersed throughout the container.
These particles are so small that they are regarded as point masses. As they are point masses, so the actual
volume occupied by the gas molecules is negligible in comparison to the total volume of the gas.

   

Support for the assumption. This assumption explains the great compressibility of gases because there is a
lot of empty space between the gas molecule.
No force of attraction between the gas molecules: As the distance between the gas molecules is very large,
so it is assumed that there is no force of attraction between the gas molecules at ordinary temperature and

0
pressure. 

Support for the assumption: Due to no force of attraction between the gas molecules, therefore the gases

36
easily expand and occupy all the space available to them on heating.

Particles of gas are in constant random motion: Particles of gas are in a state of constant random motion. 

Support for the assumption: This assumption is supported by the fact that gases do not have a fixed shape
because of their random motion.

S
Particles of gas collide with each other and with the walls of the container: ParticLes of gas move in a straight
R
line with high velocities in all the possible directions. During their this motion, they collide with each other
and with the walls of the container in which gas is enclosed and even change direction upon collisions.

E
E
R

A
C

Support for the assumption. Gas exerts some pressure. Pressure of the gas exerted is just because of the
collisions of particles with the walls of the container.

Collisions are perfectly elastic: When the gas molecules collide with each other they pass on their energies.
There is a transfer of energy from one colliding molecule to the other but the total energy of molecules
before and after the collision remains the same therefore, the collisions are called perfectly elastic. So, there
is no net loss of energy. 

Support for the assumption: As there is no loss of kinetic energy, therefore the motion of molecules do not
cease so, the gases never settle down.

Different particles of the gas, have different speeds: Different particles of gas possess different kinetic
energies, therefore they have different speeds at a particular time. 

Support for the assumption: This postulate is reasonable as when the molecules collide, they change their
speed. Even though the initial speeds are same, but after collisions, there is transfer of energy from one
molecule to the other. So, as the energy changes after the collisions, so do the speeds. But the distribution of
speeds remains constant at a particular temperature. 

The average kinetic energy of the gas molecules is directly proportional to the absolute temperature: As
discussed in the above assumption the speed of a molecule changes with time, i.e. the speed of a molecule is
variable. Therefore we talk about the average kinetic energy of the molecules Kinetic molecular theory of

0
gases establishes a link between the molecular motion and temperature. As the temperature increases, so
the kinetic energy also increases

36
-

As we learnt in Kinetic Theory of Gases - Collisions of gas molecules are perfectly elastic. This means that the
total energy of molecules before and after the collisions remains the same.

increases as we move up the periodic table and increase polarity. This means that an RF haloalkane is most
reactive followed by RCl than RBr and finally RI. This means that the Lewis acids used as catalysts in Friedel-

Mechanism

1. In this step a carbocation is formed that acts as the electrophile in the reaction. This step  activates the
haloalkane. Secondary and tertiary halides only form the free carbocation in this step.

2. In this step, electrophilic attack on the benzene occurs that results in multiple resonance forms. The halogen
reacts with the intermediate and picks up the hydrogen to eliminate the positive charge.

Haloarenes undergo the usual electrophilic reactions of the benzene ring such as Friedel-Crafts reactions.
Halogen atom besides being slightly deactivating is o, p-directing; therefore, further substitution occurs at
the ortho- and para-positions with respect to the halogen atom.

Till now we have come across many trigonometric identities, such as sin2Ө + cos2Ө = 1, sec2Ө - tan2Ө = 1 etc.
Such identities are true for all the angles which satisfy the given conditions. In this section, we are going to
E

learn some conditional identities. 


R

Here the condition is that A, B, and C are the angles of triangle ABC, and A + B + C = π.

As, A + B + C = π then,  A + B = π - C, A + C = π - B and  B + C = π - A


A

   Using the above conditions, we can get some important identities.


C

1. sin (A + B) = sin (π - C) = sin C

Similarly, sin (A + C) = sin B and sin (B + C) = sin A

2. cos (A + B) = cos (π - C) = -cos C

Similarly, cos (A + C) = -cos B and cos (B + C) = -cos A

3. tan (A + B) = tan (π - C) = -tan C

Similarly, tan (A + C) = -tan B and tan (B + C) = -tan A

Arranging 4 boys and 4 girls such that no two girls should stand together:

The four boys can first be arranged in 4! ways. Now there will be 5 places (Three between 4 boys and one at
each end) for the 4 girls and they could be arranged in 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 ways. Thus the total number of
arrangements possible is 4! × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2.

Arranging 4 boys and 4 girls such that girls and boys have to be alternate:

When girls and boys have to be alternate, it would just be either G B G B G B G B or B G B G B G B G. In each
of these ways, there are 4 places for the boys and 4 places for the girls and thus they can be arranged in 4! ×
