2) On hydrolysis C F forms HOC  and HF
3) F2 is more reactive than C F
4) C 2 is more reactive than C F

Statement I: The limiting molar conductivity of KC  (strong electrolyte) is
higher compared to that of CH 3COOH (weak electrolyte)
Statement II: Molar conductivity decreases with decrease in concentration of electrolyte.
In the light of the above statements choose the most appropriate answer from the options
given below
1) Both statement I and Statement II are false
2) Statement I is false but Statement II is true
3) Both statement I and Statement II are true
4) Statement I is true but Statement II is false
Key: 4
Sol: Limiting molar conductivity of KC  is higher compared to that of CH 3COOH because
KC  is strong electrolyte and can be extrapolated in the graph to calculate the limiting
molar conductivity. Whereas CH 3COOH is a weak electrolyte and it cannot be
ealenlated using the graphical method.

Statement I: In the titration between strong acid and weak base methyl orange is suitable
as an indicator.
Statement II: For titration of acetic acid with NaOH phenolphthalein is not a suitable
indicator.

given below:
1) Statement I is false but Statement II is true
2) Both statement I and Statement II are false
3) Both statement I and Statement II are True
4) Statement I is true but Statement II is false
Key: 2
Sol: P H range of strong acid weak base reaction is form 4 to 7 and methyl range P H range is
