This represents the Boolean expression for OR gate.
14.

Y  A B
According to De morgan's theorem Y  A  B  A.B  A.B
This is output equation of 'AND' gate.
15. According to the given polarity, diode D1 is forward biased while D2 is reverse biased.
Hence current will pass through D1 only.

So, current i   0.02A
(150  50  100)
16. Number density of atoms in silicon specimen  5  1028 atoms/cm3  5  1022 atoms/cm3
Since one atom of indium is doped in  5  10 7 Si atom. So number of indium atoms
5  10 22
doped per cm3 of silicon n  7
 1  1015 atoms/cm 3 .

17. In positive half cycle one diode is in forward biasing and other is in reverse biasing while
in negative half cycle their polarity reverses, and direction of current is opposite
through R for positive and negative half cycles so out put is not rectified. Since R 1 and
R 2 are different hence the peaks during positive half and negative half of the input signal
will be different.
18. When donor impurity (+5 valence) added to a pure silicon (+4 valence), the +5
donor atom sits in the place of +4 valence silicon atom. So it has a net additional +1
electronic charge. The four valence electron form covalent bond and get fixed in
the lattice. The fifth electron (with net –1 electronic charge) can be approximated to
revolve around +1 additional charge. The situation is like the hydrogen atom for which
13.6
energy is given by E   2 eV . For the case of hydrogen, the permittivity was taken as
n

 0 . However, if the medium has a permittivity  r , relative to  0 , then E   2 2 eV For Si,
r n
 r  12 and for n  1 4 1, E  0.1eV

32. AgNO3  KCl  aq   AgCl ( s)  KNO3.(aq) Initially there is aq. KCl solution now as
solution of AgNO3 is added, AgCl ( s ) is formed. Hence conductivity of solution is
almost compensated (or slightly increase) by the formation of KNO3 . After end point
conductivity increases more rapidly because addition of excess AgNO3 solution.

37. A weak acid is titrated with a strong base, and the conjugate base of the weak acid will
raise the pH to a value larger than 7at the equivalence point.
38. It is best to use an indicator in the pH range of 4-6 when measuring the strength of an acid
and a weak base in titration . It is necessary to do a strong acid-strong base titration with
the use of a phenolphthalein indicator. This particular pigment was chosen because it
changes colour when the pH ranges between 8.3 and 10. The acid and base will react in a
strong acid – strong base titration, resulting in the formation of a neutral solution.When
the reaction reaches its equivalence point, the hydronium (H+) and hydroxide (OH-) ions
will react to generate water, which will result in a pH of 7. This is true for every titration
involving a strong acid and a strong base.

of COOH group does not happen and it remains unaffected. LiAlH 4 is strong reducing
reagent; so it can reduce both carbonyl and carboxylic groups.

atmospheric pressure. It is a very quick vaporization process which takes place at a constant temperature,
referred to as the boiling point.
