Sol. SrSO4, PbSO4, Mg(NH4)PO4, Mn(OH)2 and CaC2O4

are white coloured salts.
88. Total number of deactivating groups in aromatic
electrophilic substitution reaction among the
following is _______.

90. The potential for the given half cell at 298 K is (–)
________ × 10–2 V.

+
2H(aq) + 2e− → H2 (g)
Answer (2)
[H+ ] = 1M, PH2 = 2 atm
Sol. are deactivating groups in
(Given : 2.303RT/F = 0.06 V, log2 = 0.3)
aromatic electrophilic substitution reaction,
because they are –R group which pulls electron Answer (1)
density towards themselves.
Sol. Eº + = 0V
H /H2

89. The number of molecules/ion/s having trigonal

bipyramidal shape is _______. 2H+ + 2e – ⎯⎯→ H2 ( g)
