Q1. Define conductivity and molar conductivity for the solution of 3 Marks
an electrolyte.
Discuss their variation with concentration.
Ans:
Conductivity: The reciprocal of resistance of an electrolyte in aqueous solution
is known as its conductivity. It is equal to R
1

Molar Conductivity: Molar conductivity of a solution is defined as the

conductance of all ions present in one mole of electrolyte in the solution. If M
is the molar concentration in mol L–1, then.

Fig: Molar conductivity versus C1/2 for acetic acid (week electrolyte) and
potassium chloride (strong electrolyte in aqueous solutions)
The curve shown below gives the change in conductance against square root
of concentrations. We observe that for strong electrolytes like KCl, the
conductance does not change much with decrease in √C; whereas in the case
of weak electrolyte like acetic acid (CH3COOH) it increases much with
decrease in √C.
Q2. Among the isomeric alkanes of molecular formula C5H12, 3 Marks
identify the one that on photochemical chlorination yields,
1. A single monochloride.
2. Three isomeric monochlorides.
3. Four isomeric monochlorides.
Ans:
1. Neopentene
CH3

H3 C − C − CH3 .

CH3
As all the H-atomsare equivalent, the replacement of any one of them gives
the same product.
2. a b c b a

CH3 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH3

n-pentene. a, b, c are the three sets of equivalent hydrogens. Therefore,
three isomaric monochlorides are possible.

iso-pentene. There are four sets of equivalent hydrogens Designated as a,
b, c, d. Thus, four isomeric monochlorides are possible.
Q3. Boiling point of water at 750 mm Hg is 99.63°C. How much 3 Marks
sucrose is to be added to 500 g of water such that it boils at
100°C.
Ans:
Here, elevation of boiling point ∆Tb
= (100 + 273) - (99.63 + 273)
= 0.37 K
Mass of water, w1 = 500 g
Molar mass of sucrose (C12H22O11),
M2 = 11 × 12 + 22 × 1 + 11 × 16
= 342 g mol
Molal elevation constant, Kb = 0.52 K kg mol-1
We know that:
Kb ×1000×w2
ΔTb =
M2 ×w1
ΔTb ×M2 ×w1
⇒ w2 =
Kb ×1000
0.37×342×500
=
0.52×1000

= 121.67 g (approximately)
Hence, 121.67 g of sucrose is to be added.
Q4. Write the Nernst equation and emf of the following cells at 3 Marks
298 K:
Pt(s) | Br2(l) | Br– (0.010 M) || H+ (0.030 M) | H2(g) (1
bar)|Pt(s).
Ans:
For given cell Anode reaction:
2Br-(aq) → Br2(l) + 2e-
Cathode reaction:
2H+(aq) + 2e- → H2(g)
Overall cell reaction:
2Br-(aq) + 2H+(aq) → Br2(l) + H2(g)
Here, n = 2,
Eocell = Eocathode - Eoanode = 0 - 1.08 V = - 1.08 V.
The Nernst equation for Ecell and 298 k can be written as:
2+
∘ 0.059 [Br ] [H2 ]
Ecell = Ecell − log − + 2
n [Br ] [H ]

10 ×9×10

= - 1.08 - 0.0295(log 108 - log 9)

= -1.08 - 0.0295 (7.0458)
= -1.08 - 0.2078 = -1.2878 V.

The negative value of Ecell indicates the cell has been arranged in a reverse
way, i.e., hydrogen electrode will act as anode and bromine electrode act as
cathode. The cell should be represented as Pt I H2 (1 bar),
H+(0.03 M) II Br (0.01 M) I Br2(1), Pt.
Q5. What are alloys? Name an important alloy which contains 3 Marks
some of the lanthanoid metals. Mention its uses.
Ans:
An alloy is a blend of metals prepared by mixing the components. Alloys may
be homogeneous solid solutions in which the atoms of one metal
are distributed randomly among the atoms of the other. Such alloys are
formed by atoms with metallic radii that are within about 15 percent of each
other. Because of similar radii and other characteristics of transition metals,
alloys are readily formed by these metals.
An important alloy which contains some of the lanthanoid is mischmetall.
Mischmetall consists of a lanthanoid metal (~95%) and iron (~5%) and traces
of S, C, Ca and Al.
Uses:
1. Mischmetall is used in Mg based alloy to produce bullets, shell and lighter
flint.
Some individual Ln oxides are used asjphosphorus in television screens and
similar fluorescing surfaces.
Q6. 1. Draw the structures of all isomeric alcohols of molecular 3 Marks
formula C5H12O and give their IUPAC names.
2. Classify the isomers of alcohols in question 11.3 (i) as
primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols.

1. Eight isomeric alcohols are possible:
1. CH3 − CH2 − CH2 − CH2 − CH2 − OH

Q7. An aqueous solution of 2% non-volatile solute exerts a 3 Marks
pressure of 1.004 bar at the normal boiling point of the
solvent. What is the molar mass of the solute?
Ans:
Vapour pressure of pure water at the boiling poin

(P ) = 1.013 bar
Vapour pressure of solution (Ps) = 1·004 bar
Mass of solute (w2) = 2g
Molar mass of solvent, water (M1) = 18g
Mass of solvent (w1) = 98g
Mass of solution = 100g
