through following time saving. 16. Mg2+ = 1s2 2 s2 2 p6 = no unpaired electron
Trick The charges on the ions indicate the size as Ti 3+ = 1s2 2 s2 2 p6 3s2 3 p6 3d 1 = one unpaired electron
N3- > O2- > F- . Thus, you have to look for the option in which V3+ = 1s2 2 s2 2 p6 3s2 3 p6 3d 2 = two unpaired electrons
the above trend is followed. Option(c) is the only one in which
Fe2+ = 1s2 2 s2 2 p6 3s2 3 p6 3d6 = four unpaired electrons

weak intermolecular association due to dipole - dipole interactions.
Compound (a) is a dicarboxylic acid and possess high melting point due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
As a result, it exist as associated molecule. Compound (d) is an alcohol and possess intermolecular H-bonding. No interactions are present in
hydrocarbon (naphthalene) compound (b).
Hence, melting point is lowest for naphthalene (- ~ 80°C), i.e. compound (b).

Hence, acidic order I > II > III > IV. small negative slope.
II is more acidic than III since electron donating group
(¾OCH 3) is attached to benzene ring in III which decreases the
acidic character. CMC of Lm on ÖC has a
Lm small negative slope.
On the other hand, pK a value also determined acidic nature,
lower pK a value gives maximum acidic character.

When 0.5 g of non-volatile solute dissolve into 39 gm of (After mixing)
benzene then relative lowering of vapour pressure occurs. At equilibrium 0.03- X 0.1 – 0.03 = 0.07
