SECTION D
The following questions are case-based questions. Each question has an internal choice and
carries 4 (1+1+2) marks each. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
31. Osmotic pressure results from a reduction in the chemical potential of a solvent in the
presence of a solute. The tendency of a system to have equal cemical potentials over its entire
volume and to reach a state of lowest free energy gives rise to the osmotic diffusion of matter. In
ideal and dilute solutions, the osmotic pressure is independent of the nature of the solvent and
solutes. At constant temperature it is determined only by the number of kinetically active partic
les—ions, molecules, associated species, and colloidal particles in a unit volume of the solution.
For very dilute solutions of nondissociating compounds, osmotic pressure is described with
sufficient accuracy by the equation πV = nRT, where n is the number of moles of solute, V is the
volume of the solution, R is the universal gas constant, and T is the absolute temperature.

SECTION C
This section contains 5 questions with internal choice in two questions. The following
questions are short answer type and carry 3 marks each.
26 Miscible liquid pairs often show positive and negative deviation from Raoult’s law. Explain the
reason for such deviation? Give one example of each of liquid pairs.
Ans:
Miscible liquid pairs often show positive and negative deviation from Raoult’s law are
called non ideal solutions. Explanation of the reason of such deviations is as follows:
Negative deviation
(i) The vapour pressure of solution is lower
than that of an ideal solution of the same
composition.
(ii) A negative deviation is executed by liquid
pairs for which A-B molecular interaction
forces are stronger than the A-A and B-B
molecular interaction forces. This means that
molecules of A and B will find it difficult to
escape from a solution than from the pure
components. This will result in decrease in
vapour pressure which is known as –ve
deviation.
Eg. Acetone + Chloroform
Intermolecular force of interaction between:
Acetone – Acetone, Diople dipole interaction
Chloroform – Chloroform, Diople dipole
interaction
Acetone – Chloroform, H- Bonding (Stronger
than above two)
Positive deviation
(i) The vapour pressure of solution is higher
than that of an ideal solution of the same
composition.
(ii) A negative deviation is executed by liquid
pairs for which A-B molecular interaction
forces are weaker than the A-A and B-B
molecular interaction forces. This means
that molecules of A and B will find it easier
to escape from a solution than from the
pure components. This will result in increase
in vapour pressure which is known as +ve
deviation.
Eg. Ethanol + Cyclohexane
Intermolecular force of interaction
between:
Ethanol – Ethanol, H- Bonding
Cyclohexane – Cyclohexane, London

Ethanol – Cyclohexane (Weaker than above

1.3  20
Now 2B = AB4 – AB2 = 196 – 110.87 = 85.13 g/mol, Therefore B = 42.56 g/ mol
Now A = AB2 – 85.13 = 25.74 g/ mol.

SECTION D
The following questions are case-based questions. Each question has an internal choice and
carries 4 (1+1+2) marks each. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
31. Osmotic pressure results from a reduction in the chemical potential of a solvent in the
presence of a solute. The tendency of a system to have equal cemical potentials over its entire
volume and to reach a state of lowest free energy gives rise to the osmotic diffusion of matter. In
ideal and dilute solutions, the osmotic pressure is independent of the nature of the solvent and
solutes. At constant temperature it is determined only by the number of kinetically active partic
les—ions, molecules, associated species, and colloidal particles in a unit volume of the solution.
For very dilute solutions of nondissociating compounds, osmotic pressure is described with
sufficient accuracy by the equation πV = nRT, where n is the number of moles of solute, V is the
volume of the solution, R is the universal gas constant, and T is the absolute temperature.
The following questions are multiple choice questions. Choose the most appropriate answer
(i) Name and define the process/method which is used for purification of water?
Ans: Reverse Osmosis which is defined as: When an excess pressure greater than the osmotic
pressure is applied on solution, the solvent flows out of the solution. This phenomenon is known as
reverse osmosis.
(ii) Which colligative property is most suitable to measure molecular mass of proteins and why?
Ans: Osmotic pressure. This is because all measurements in osmotic pressure method are done at
room temperature and biomolecules are stable only at room temperature.
(iii) 200 cm3 of an aqueous solution of a protein contains 1.26 g of the protein. The osmotic pressure
of such a solution at 300 K is found to be 2.57 × 10-3 bar. Calculate the molar mass of the protein.
Ans. The various quantities known to us are as follows: Π = 2.57 × 10–3 bar,
V = 200 cm3 = 0.200 litre T = 300 K R = 0.083 L bar mol-1 K-1
Π = CRT = n x RT/V (n = W2/M2), Π = W2/M2 X RT/V
Therefore M2 = W2/ Π X RT/V
Substituting values:
M2 = 1.26 g × 0.083 L bar K−1 mol−1 × 300 K / 2.57×10−3 bar × 0.200 L
= 61,022 g mol-1

(ii) According to Raoult’s law, the vapour pressure of a volatile component in a given solution

and
4
Ans (ii) In the solution of a gas in a liquid, one of the components is so volatile that it exists
as a gas. Its solubility is given by Henry’s law. p = KH x.
If we compare the equations for Raoult’s law and Henry’s law, it can be seen that the partial
pressure of the volatile component or gas is directly proportional to its mole fraction in
solution. Only the proportionality constant KH differs from p10. Thus, Raoult’s law becomes
a special case of Henry’s law in which KH becomes equal to p10.
OR
(a) 0.6 mL of acetic acid (CH3COOH), having density 1.06 g mL–1, is dissolved in 1 litre of water.
The depression in freezing point observed for this strength of acid was 0.0205°C. Calculate the
van’t Hoff factor and the dissociation constant of acid.
(b) Define Van’t Hoff factor. Give the value of Van’t Hoff factor in case of the following:
Association, Dissociation and neither association nor dissociation of solute when dissolved in a
solvent.
Ans: (a)
Acetic acid is a weak electrolyte and will dissociate into two ions: acetate and hydrogen
Ans (b) Van’t Hoff factor is defined as the ratio of normal molar mass to the abnormal molar mass
of solute when dissolved in water. Its value for Association is < 1, for dissociation is >1 and for
neither association nor dissociation = 1
34. (a) What is meant by abnormal molar mass of solute? Discuss the factors which bring
abnormality in the experimentally determined molecular masses of solutes using colligative
properties.
(b) If N2 gas is bubbled through water at 293 K, how many millimoles of N2 gas would dissolve in 1
litre of water. Assume that N2 exerts a partial pressure of 0.987 bar. Given that Henry’s law constant
for N2 at 293 K is 76.48 kbar.
Ans: (a) The molecular mass obtained with the help of colligative property sometimes is different
from normal molecular mass, it is called abnormal molecular mass. The factors which bring
abnormality are:
Association: When the solute molecules undergo association, the number of particles becomes less
and molecular mass determined with the help of colligative property will be more.
Dissociation: It leads to increase in number of particles, therefore, increase in colligative property,
therefore, decrease in molecular weight because colligative property is inversely proportional to
molecular weight.
Ans: (b)The mole fraction of the gas in the solution is calculated by applying Henry’s law.
Thus: x(Nitrogen)=p(nitrogen)/KH=0.987bar/76,480bar=1.29×10-5
As 1 litre of water contains 55.5 mol of it, therefore if n represents no. of moles of N 2in solution
x(Nitrogen) = n mol/ n mol + 55.5 mol =n/55.5= 1.29 x 10-5
Thus n = 1.29 × 10–5 × 55.5 mol = 7.16 × 10–4 mol
=7.16×10−4 mol × 1000 millimoles /1 mol = 0.716 millimoles

(e)The molecular mass of a solute is 120 g/mol and van’t Hoff factor is 4. What is its abnormal
molecular mass?
Ans (a) RBC’s will swell due to endosmosis.
Ans (b) When a non-volatile solute is added to a solvent, the surface area for escape of solvent
molecules decreases and vapour pressure gets lowered.
Ans (c) Common salt is called de-icing agent as it lowers the freezing point of water to such an
extent that it does not freeze to form ice. Thus, it is used to clear snow from roads.
Ans (d) It means that the freezing point of water is lowered by 1.86 K when 1 mole of a nonvolatile solute is dissolved in 1000 g of water.
Ans (e)Abnormal molecular mass = Normal Molar Mass/ van’t Hoff factor = 120/4 = 30 g/mol

solution is more than 60ml.
(c) Define cryoscopic constant?
(d) State (i) Azeotropes and (ii) Henry’s Law constant.
Ans (a): Ethylene Glycol reduces the freezing point of water. Due to this, the coolant in radiators
will not freeze.
Ans (b): Solution of water and ethyl alcohol shows positive deviation and hence 𝛥𝑉 > 0
Ans (c): It is the depression in freezing point when 1 mole of a non-volatile solute is dissolved in
1000 g of solvent.
Ans (d) (i) Azeotropes are constant boiling mixture of two or more liquids having same composition
of the components in liquid as well as in vapour phase.

Molar conductivity of a solution at a given concentration is the conductance of
volume V of a solution containing 1 mole of the electrolyte kept between two
electrodes with the area of cross-section A and distance of unit length.
Conductivity always decreases with a decrease in concentration, both for weak and
strong electrolytes. This is because the number of ions per unit volume that carry the
current in a solution decreases with a decrease in concentration.
Molar conductivity increases with a decrease in concentration. This is because the total
volume V of the solution containing one mole of the electrolyte increases on dilution.

equation of the reaction.

Substitute the value of I in equation (ii)
-ln[A] = Kt – ln[A]
ln[A]0 – ln[A] = Kt
This is called integrated rate equation for the first order reaction.

barrier as shown in the diagram

that when the reactant molecules absorb energy, their bonds are loosened and new bonds
are formed between them. The intermediate complex thus formed is called activated
complex. It is unstable and immediately dissociates to form the stable products.

such as high tensile strength, ductility, malleability. Except for mercury, which is liquid at
room temperature, other transition elements have typical metallic structures. The transition

Q32 Transition metal oxides are compounds formed by the reaction of metals with oxygen at
high temperatures. The highest oxidation number in the oxides coincides with the group
number. In vanadium, there is a gradual change from the basic V 2O3 to less basic V2O4 and to
amphoteric V2O5⋅ V2O4 dissolves in acids to give VO 2+ salts. Transition metal oxides are
commonly utilized for their catalytic activity and semiconductive properties. Transition metal
oxides are also frequently used as pigments in paints and plastic. Most notably titanium
dioxide. One of the earliest applications of transition metal oxides to the chemical industry
involved the use of vanadium oxide for catalytic oxidation of sulfur dioxide to sulphuric acid.
Since then, many other applications have emerged, which include benzene oxidation to
maleic anhydride on vandium oxides; cyclohexane oxidation to adipic acid on cobalt oxides.
An important property of the catalyst material used in these processes is the ability of
transition metals to change their oxidation state under a given chemical potential of
reductants and oxidants.

Ans: (a) In transition elements, there are large number of unpaired electrons in their
atoms, thus they have a stronger inter atomic interaction and thereby stronger
bonding between the atoms. Due to this they have high enthalpies of atomization.
(b) Because of the availability of d-orbitals, they can easily form intermediate products
1+1=2
which are activated. The sizes of transition metal atoms and ions are also favourable for
transition complex formation with the reactants
20.
Ans: (i) The highest oxidation state of a metal is exhibited in its oxide or fluoride due to
its high electronegativity, low ionisation energy and small size.
(ii) As oxidation number of metal atom in metal oxide increases, oxidising power
increases
OR
Ans: (i) The number of oxidation states increases upto middle of series i.e. unto +7
and then decreases.
(ii) Oxometal ions are polyatomic ions with oxygen. Example : VO2+, VO+2, TiO2+

Mischmetal is an alloy of lanthanum. Composition: Lanthanoid metal (95%), Iron (5%) and
traces of C,S, Ca and Al.
It is used in Mg based alloy to produce bullets, shell and lighter flint.
22.
a) Because silver has incomplete d-orbital (4d9) in its +2 oxidation state, hence it is a
transition element.
(b) The large positive E° value for Mn3+/Mn2+ shows that Mn2+ is much more stable than
Mn+3 due to stable half-filled configuration (3d5). Therefore the 3rd ionisation energy of
Mn will be very high and Mn3+ is unstable and can be easily reduced to Mn2+. E° value for
Cr3+ | Cr2+ is positive but small i.e. Cr3+ can also be reduced to Cr2+ but less easily. Thus
Cr3+ is more stable than Mn3+.

(a) In transition elements, there are large number of unpaired electrons in their atoms,
thus they have a stronger inter atomic interaction and thereby stronger bonding
between the atoms. Due to this they have high enthalpies of atomization.
(b) Because of the availability of d-orbitals, they can easily form intermediate products
which are activated. The sizes of transition metal atoms and ions are also favourable for
transition complex formation with the reactants.
23.
(a) Copper exhibits + 1 oxidation state more frequently i.e., Cu+1 because of its
electronic configuration 3d104s1. It can easily lose 4s1electron to give stable 3d10
configuration.
(b) SC3+ = 4S03d3+ = no unpaired electron
1+1
V3+ = 3d24s0= 2 unpaired electron
Ti4+ = 3d04s0= no unpaired electron
Mn2+ = 3d54s0= 5 unpaired electron
Thus V3+ and Mn2+ are coloured in their aqueous solution due to presence of unpaired
electron.

irregularity in their electronic configuration.
Difference: Actinoids show wide range of oxidation states but lanthanoids do not
Disproportionation: In a disproportionation reaction an element undergoes self oxidation
as well as self-reduction forming two different compounds.

27.
(i) Due to lanthanoid contraction in second series after lanthanum, the atomic radii
of elements of second and third series become almost same and hence show
similarities in properties.
(ii) The electronic configuration of Mn2+ ion is more symmetrical as compared to
that of Cr2+ ion. So 3rd ionisation potential of Mn2+ is much higher. As a result E°
value of Mn3+/ Mn2+ couple is much more positive than for Cr3+/Cr2+ couple.
(iii) The highest oxidation state of a metal is exhibited in its oxide or fluoride due to its
high electronegativity
(i) Cr2+ has the configuration 3d4 which easily changes to d3due to stable half filled t2g
orbitals. Therefore Cr2+ is reducing agent. While Mn2+ has stable half filled
d5configuration. Hence Mn3+ easily changes to Mn2+ and acts as oxidising agent.
1+1+1
1+1+1
(ii) Due to comparable energies of 5f 6d and 7s orbitals of actinoids, these show
largernumber of oxidation states than corresponding members of lanthanoids
(iii) Due to the presence of unpaired electrons in d-orbital, transition metal exhibits
colours in aqueous solution or due to d-d transition
28.
. Lanthanoid contraction: Steady decrease in thesize of the lanthanoids with increase in
the atomic number
across the period. The electrons of 4f orbitals offer imperfect / poor shielding effect in the
same
subshell.
Consequence:
i) Due to this 5d series elements have nearly same radii as that of 4d series.
ii) Decrease in the basic strength from La(OH)3 to Lu(OH)3.
iii) Due to similar atomic size there is difficulty in separation of lanthanides.
1+2
29.
: (i) The variability of oxidation state of transition elements is due to incompletely filled
d orbitals as ns, and (n – 1) d electrons have very less energy difference.
(ii) Co2+ ion is easily oxidised to Co3+ ion in presence of a strong ligand because of its
higher crystal field energy which causes pairing of electrons to give inner orbital
complexes (d2sp3).
1+1+1
(iii) Actinoids because of very small energy gap between 5f, 6d and 7s subshells all their
electrons can take part in bonding and shows variable oxidation states.

(i) Mn

(iii) Zn
1+1+1
OR
(i) The catalytic properties of the transition elements are due to the presence of unpaired
electrons in their incomplete d- orbitals and variable oxidation states. The colour of
transition metal ions is due to d-d transition. When electrons jump from one orbital to
another in their partially filled d-orbitals, another light is emitted due to which the
compounds of transition elements seem to be coloured
(ii) MnO is basic while Mn2O7 is acidic because the basic nature decreases as the oxidation
state or number of oxygen atoms increases i.e. MnO (+4) and Mn2O7 (+7) (b) Divalent ion
with atomic number 26 is Fe2+

: (i) Mn shows, maximum number of oxidation states upto +7. It has the
maximum number of unpaired electrons.
(ii) Cr has the highest melting point.
(iii) Sc shows only +3 oxidation state
5
iv) Mn is a strong oxidizing agent in +3 oxidation state because after reduction it attains
+2 oxidation state in which it has the most stable half-filled (d5) configuration
OR
: (i) Mn has the maximum number of unpaired electrons present in the d-subshell (5
electrons). Hence, Mn exhibits the largest number of oxidation states, ranging from +2
to +7. (ii) Copper has positive E0(Cu2+/Cu) value because of its high enthalpy of
atomization and low enthalpy of hydration. The high energy required to oxidise Cu to
Cu2+ is not balanced by its hydration energy.
(iii) Cr2+ has the configuration 3d4 which easily changes to d3due to stable half filled
t2g orbitals. Therefore Cr2+ is reducing agent, it gets oxidized to Cr3+. While Mn2+ has
stable half filled d5configuration. Hence Mn3+ easily changes to Mn2+ and acts as
oxidising agent. (iv) Eutropium is well known to exhibit +2 oxidation state.
(v) MnO4–+ 8H++ 5e– → Mn2+ + 4H2O

a) Potassium dichromate is prepared from chromate by reacting chromite ore with
Na2CO3
5
4 FeCr2O4 + 8Na2CO3 + 7O2 → 8Na2CrO4 + 2Fe2O3 + 8CO2 .
The yellow solution of sodium chromate is filtered off and acidified with H 2SO4 to give
orange sodium dichromate
2Na2CrO4 + 2H+ → Na2Cr2O7 + H2O + 2Na
Sodium dichromate is then treated with KCl to give potassium dichromate as orange
(3+2)
crystals. Na2Cr2O7 + 2KCl → K2Cr2O7 + 2NaCl
The chromates and dichromates are interconvertible in aqueous solution depending
upon pH of the solution.
2CrO4-2+ 2H+ → Cr2O7-2 + H2O
Cr2O7-2+ 2OH–→ 2CrO4-2+ H2O
(b) In transition elements, the successive oxidation state differs by unity, e.g, Mn shows
all the oxidation states from +2 to +7. On the other hand, non-transition metals exhibit
variable oxidation states which differ by two units, e.g. Pb(II), Pb(IV), Sn(II), Sn(IV) etc
OR
Ans: Potassium Permangante (KMnO4) is prepared from pyrolusite ore (MnO2). The
ore (MnO2) is fused with an alkali metal hydroxide like KOH in the presence of air or
an oxidising agent like KNO3 to give dark green potassium manganate (K2MnO4).
K2‐ From pyrolusite ore
I. Conversion of pyrolusite ore into potassium manganate
II. Conversion of potassium manganate to potassium permanganate Following reactions
take place:‐
2MnO2 + 4KOH + O2 → 2 K2MnO4 + 2H2O
3MnO4-+ 4H+→ 2MnO4-+ MnO2 + 2H2O
(i) 8MnO4 (aq) +3 S2O32-(aq) + H2O (l) → 8MnO2+6SO42-+2OHii) 2MnO4 – + 5SO3 2– + 6H+→ 2Mn2+ + 5SO4 2– + 3H2O
35
(a) 5Fe2+ (aq) + MnO4- (aq) + 8H+ (aq) → Mn2+ (aq) + 5Fe3+ (aq) + 4H2O(l)
(b) Cr2O72- (aq) + 6I– (aq) + 14H+ (aq) → 2Cr3+(aq) + 3I2 (s) + 7H2O(l)
2+3
b) (i) Because of increase in effective nuclear charge and weak shielding
effect of d electrons, the atomic radii decreases.
(ii) The E°M2+/M for any metal is related to the sum of the enthalpy changes taking
place in the following steps :
M(g) + ΔaH → M(g) (ΔaH = enthalpy of atomization)
M(g) + ΔiH → M2+(g) (ΔiH = ionization enthalpy)
M2+(g) + aq → M2+(aq) + ΔhydH (ΔhydH = hydration enthalpy)
Copper has high enthalpy of atomization (i.e. energy absorbed and low enthalpy of
hydration (i.e. energy released). Hence E°M2+/M for copper is positive. The high energy
required to transform Cu(s) to Cu2+(aq) is not balanced by its hydration enthalpy.
(iii) The large positive E° value for Mn3+ | Mn2+ shows that Mn2+ is much more stable than
Mn3+ due to stable half-filled configuration (3d5). Therefore the 3rd ionization energy of
Mn will be very high and Mn3+ is unstable and can be easily reduced to Mn2+. E° value for
Fe3+ | Fe2+ is positive but small i.e. Fe3+ can also be reduced to Fe2+ but less easily. Thus
Fe3+ is more stable than Mn3+
OR
(a) This is because transition elements have strong metallic bonds as they have large
number of unpaired electrons, therefore they have greater interatomic overlap
(b)The catalytic activity of transition metals is attributed to the following reasonsi)
Because of their variable oxidation state, transition metals form unstable intermediate
compounds and provide a new path with lower activation energy for the reaction.
ii) In some cases, the transitions metal provides a suitable large surface area with free
valencies on which reactants are adsorbed
1X5
(c) E°(M2+/M) values are not regular in the first transition series metals because of
irregular variation of ionization enthalpies (IE1 + IE2) and the sublimation energies.
(d) ) Among transition elements, the bonds formed in +2 and +3 oxidation states are
mostly ionic. The compounds formed in higher oxidation states are generally formed by
sharing of d-electrons. Therefore, Mn can form MnO4- which has multiple bonds also,
while fluorine cannot form multiple bonds.
(e) The absence of unpaired d-electron in Sc3+ whereas in Ti3+ there is one unpaired
electron or Ti3+ shows the d-d transition.

In a metal carbonyl, the metal-carbon bond possesses both the σ and π character. The 2
bond between the carbonyl molecule and the metal is further strengthened by the
synergic effect produced by the metal-ligand bond. The two types of bonding that exist
in metal carbonyls are explained below:
Structure of Metal Carbonyls:
21

Due to the donation of electrons by the carbonyl molecules to the vacant orbitals
of the metal, a metal-carbon σ bond is formed.

Due to the donation of a pair of electrons from a filled d orbital metal into the
vacant anti-bonding π* orbital of carbonyl ligand, a metal-carbon π bond is
formed.
Let us consider a general reaction:
2
M+4L ⇔ ML4
The stability constant may be written as:
Stability depends upon: charge on central metal and strength of ligands
Or
Giving a suitable example for each, explain the following :
(i) Linkage isomerism: When more than one atom in an ambidentate ligand is linked
with central metal ion to form two types of complexes, then the formed isomers are
called linkage isomers and the phenomenon is called linkage isomerism.
[Cr(H2O)5(NCS)]2+ :Pentaaquathiocyanate chromium (III) ion
[Cr(H2O)5(NCS)]2+ :Pentaaquaisothiocyanate chromium (III) ion
(ii) Ambidentate ligand: The monodentate ligands with more than one coordinating
atoms is known as ambidentate ligand. Monodentate ligands have only one atom
capable of binding to a central metal atom or ion. For example, the nitrate ion NO 2– can
bind to the central metal atom/ion at either the nitrogen atom or one of the oxygen
atoms.
Example : — SCN thiocyanate, — NCS isothiocyanate

23.
In [Co(NH3)6]3+ Co is in +3 state and has configuration 3d6. In the presence of NH3, 3d
electrons pair up leaving two d-orbitals empty. Hence, the hybridization is d2sp3
forming and inner orbital complex. In [Ni(NH3)6]2+, Ni is in +2 state and has
configuration 3d8. In presence of NH3, the 3d electrons do not pair up. The
hybridization is sp3d2 forming an outer orbital complex.
2
24.
In a free transition metal ions, all the five d-orbitals are degenerate but when it is
involved in a complex formation , the degeneracy is split, This is called CFSE.

There are the following factors that affect the crystal field splitting. These are the
nature of ligands, coordination number, arrangement of ligand, size of a metal atom,
charge on the metal atom.
1
25.
Spectrochemical series gives the arrangement of ligands in the increasing order of crystal field
1
splitting.
Weak field ligands cause less crystal field splitting. They form high spin complexes. Examples
1
include chloride ions, fluoride ions etc.
Strong field ligands cause greater crystal field splitting. They form low spin complexes.
Examples includes cyanide ion and CO.

b. Transition metals/ions have empty d orbitals into which the electron-pairs can be
donated by ligands containing pi electrons ,ie ;electrons in their pi molecular orbitals ,

27
Theoretical change in temperature =kf x m =1.86 x 0.1= 0.186
3
Observed change in temperature(freezing)=0.372
As observed value is double of the theoretical value This show that each molecule of
the complex dissociates to form two ions . This can be so only if the formula of the
complex is [Co(NH3)4Cl2]C
28.
a. Overall stability constant (β) =2.1x (10)13 Overall dissociation constant is the
reciprocal of the overall stability constant .Hence overall dissociation constant= 1\ β =
1\2.1X(10)13=4.7X(10)-14 .
b. number of unpaired electrons in the square planar [Pt(CN)4] 2- ion is zero.The Pt (II)
ion has 5d8 electronic configuration. For square planar geometry dsp2 hybridization is
involved. For this one empty d orbital is needed for hybridization. Therefor , pairing of
electrons takes place in the remaining d orbitals . Hence , there are no unpaired in
[Pt(CN)4] 2- ion and it is diamagnetic.
29.
a. In CuSO4.5H2O; 4H2O molecules are present as ligand, Crystal field splitting occurs
and hence d-d trasition occurs which gives blue colour, In CuSO4 ,there are no H2o
molecules present as ligand .No CFS occurs and hence it has no colour .

i) [Co (NH3)6]3+, Co is in +3 oxidation state with the configuration 3d6. In the presence
of NH3 a strong ligand, the 3d electrons pair up leaving two d-orbitals empty. Hence,
the hybridization is d2sp3 forming an inner orbital octahedral com
ii) In [Ni(CN)4]2-, there is Ni2+ ion for which the electronic configuration in the valence
shell is 3d8 4s0.
* In presence of strong field CN- ions, all the electrons are paired up. The empty 3d,
3s and two 4p orbitals undergo dsp2 hybridization to make bonds with CN- ligands in
square planar geometry. Thus [Ni(CN)4]2- is diamagnetic. It is said to be a low spin inner
orbital complex.

Section D
Chloroflouro carbon (CFC) compounds of methane and ethane are collectively
known as freons. They are non-inflammable , extremely stable, non-toxic, noncorrosive and low boiling liquids. CFC and gas emitted from the exhaust system of
supersonics aeroplanes might be slowly depleting the concentration of the ozone
layer in the upper atmosphere. Answer the following questions on the basis oy
your knowledge .in this topic
1. Write the formula of freon.
2. Give two uses of chloroflourocarbons.
3. How does freon-12 deplete ozone layer?
4. Do you think the use of CFCs should be banned? Give reason.
Methyl chloride, methyl bromide, ethyl chloride and some chlorofluoromethanes are
gases at room temperature. Higher members are liquids or solids. As we have
already learnt, molecules of organic halogen compounds are generally polar. Due to
greater polarity as well as higher molecular mass as compared to the parent
hydrocarbon, the intermolecular forces of attraction (dipole-dipole and van der
Waals) are stronger in the halogen derivatives. That is why the boiling points of
chlorides, bromides and iodides are considerably higher than those of the
hydrocarbons of comparable molecular mass. The attractions get stronger as the
molecules get bigger in size and have more electrons.

Q.29 Give the major products that are formed by heating each of the following ethers with
HI.
3
ANS:
Q.30 Give Reasons:
a.In ethers R─ O ─ R bond is slightly larger than normal tetrahedral bond angle?
ANS:Due to greater repulsion between bulkier alkyl group.
b. Ethers are fairly soluble in water?
ANS. This is due to the fact that just like alcohols, oxygen
of ether can also form hydrogen bonds with water
molecule as shown:
3
c.Anisole can not be prepared by reaction of bromobenzene or iodo benzene with
sodium salt of corresponding alcohols i.e sodium ethoxide?
ANS: During Williamson synthesis bromobenzene or iodo benzene has to go
nucleophilic substitution and aryl halides are much less reactive than alkyl halides
towards nucleophilic substitution reactions.
Q.31 Alcohols and phenols behave as weak acids due to the presence of polar -OH group in
them. Phenols are, however, stronger acids than alcohols because the phenoxide ion
is stabilized by resonance. Presence of electron withdrawing groups on the ring
further increases the acidic strength of phenol.
(a) Out of Phenol & Benzyl alcohol, which has lower value of pKa and why?
(b) Out of o-Cresol and o-Nitrophenol, which has higher value of pKa?
(c) Which compound has shorter bond length- Phenol or Cyclohexanol? Give reason.
(d) Which species out of ethoxide ion and phenoxide ion, is stronger base
Ans: (a) Phenol, because the phenoxide ion is stabilized by resonance.
(b) o-Cresol
(c) Phenol has shorter bond length due to partial double bond character attributed to
resonance. (d) Ethoxide ion.
Q.32 A compound (X) containing C, H and O is unreactive towards sodium. It also does not
react with Schiff’s reagent. On refluxing with an excess of hydroiodic acid, (X) yields
only one organic product (Y). On hydrolysis, (Y) yields a new compound (Z) which can
13
4
4
be converted into (Y) by reaction with red phosphorous and iodine. The compound (Z)
on oxidation with potassium permanganate gives a carboxylic acid. The equivalent
weight of this acid is 60.
The following questions are multiple choice questions. Choose the most appropriate
answer:
A. The compound (X) is an
(a) acid
(b) aldehyde (c) alcohol
(d) ether
B. The IUPAC name of the acid formed is
(a) methanoic acid (b) ethanoic acid (c) propanoic acid
C. Compound (Y) is
(a) ethyl iodide (b) methyl iodide (c) propyl iodide
D.Compound (Z) is
(a) methanol
(b) ethanol
(c) propanol
(d) butanoic acid
(d) mixture of (a) and (b)
(d) butanol
Ans: A. (d) ether
B. (b) ethanoic acid
C. (a) ethyl iodide
D. (b) ethanol
Since the compound 'X' does not react with sodium, so it is neither an acid, nor an
alcohol (-OH group absent).
compound 'X' does not react with Schiff's reagent, so it is not an aldehyde.
Compound 'X' yields only one product with excess of HI, so it may be an ether and last
product of the given sequence of reactions is an acid with molecular weight 60, so
the acid is acetic acid (CH3COOH) and the ether is diethyl ether.
(because acid is a 2C compound so ether contains 4 carbons.)
Q.33 Write the equations involved in the following reactions:
a.Kolbe Reaction
14
5
b.Williamson’s synthesis :In this method, an alkyl halide reacts with sodium alkoxide
to form an ether.
c. Esterification
Alcohols and phenols react with carboxylic acids, acid chlorides and acid anhydrides
to form esters.
d. Hydroboration–oxidation
e.
Reimer-Tiemann reaction: On
treating phenol with chloroform/CCl4 in the presence of sodium hydroxide, a –CHO/ COOH group is introduced at ortho position of benzene ring. This reaction is known as
Reimer - Tiemann reaction.
Q.34 Give Reasons:
a. Phenol is more acidic
than alcohols(Ethanol).
ANS. Phenol is more
acidic than
alcohols(Ethanol).
Because Phenoxide ion is more stablised than alkoxide ion since in phenoxide ion, the
charge is delocalised.,The delocalisation of negative charge makes phenoxide ion
more stable and favours the ionisation of phenol.
b. Phenol has small dipole moment than methanol.
ANS. Phenol has small dipole moment than methanol due to electron-withdrawing
effect of the benzene ring, the C ―O bond in phenol is less polar but in case of
15
5
methanol due to electron-donating effect of CH3 group, C ―O bond is more polar.
c. Ortho – nitrophenol is more acidic than Ortho – methoxyphenol.
ANS:Ortho-nitrophenol is more acidic
because nitro group is electron withdrawing
and will increase +ve Charge on oxygen to
make it more acidic whereas –OCH3 group is
electron releasing and it will increase
electron density on oxygen thus making it
less acidic.
d. The presence of electron withdrawing groups such as nitro group enhances the
acidic strength of phenol.
ANS: The presence of electron withdrawing groups such as nitro group enhances the
acidic strength of phenol.This effect is more pronounced when such a group is
present at ortho and para positions. It is due to the effective delocalisation of
negative charge in phenoxide ion.
e. The presence of electron releasing groups such as alkyl group decreases the acidic
strength of phenol.
A. The presence of electron releasing groups such as alkyl group decreases the acidic
strength of phenol. Because electron releasing groups, such as alkyl groups, in
general, do not favour the formation of phenoxide ion resulting in decrease in acid
strength. Cresols, for example, are less acidic than phenol.
Q.35 Give Reasons:
5
a.The boiling point of alcohols and phenols are higher in comparison to hydrocarbons,
ethers, and halo alkanes of comparable molecular mass.?
ANS: The boiling point of alcohols and phenols are higher in comparison to
hydrocarbons, ethers, haloalkanes .because the –OH group in alcohols and phenols is
involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonding
b.Alcohols are comparatively more soluble in water than the corresponding
Hydrocarbons
ANS: Alcohols are comparatively more soluble in water than the corresponding
hydrocarbons because it can form intermolecular Hydrogen -bonding with water .
c. Lower alcohols are soluble in water, higher alcohols are not.
ANS. Lower alcohols are soluble in water, higher alcohols are not. as lower alcohols
are able to form stronger hydrogen bonds with water.
d. The boiling point of alcohols and phenols increase with increase in number of
carbon atoms.
ANS. The boiling point of alcohols and phenols increase with increase in number of
carbon atoms because of increase in vander Waals forces.
e. In alcohols the boiling point decreases with increase in branching.
ANS: In alcohols the boiling point decreases with increase in branching. because of
decrease in van der Waals forces with decrease in surface area

SECTION A
Q1 to 18 each correct answer 1 mark
1. (a) benzyl alcohol + sodium formate
Explanation: When a mixture of formaldehyde and another aldehyde without an α-hydrogen
atom is treated with concentrated alkali, it oxidizes formaldehyde to carboxylic acid and reduces
another aldehyde to alcohol.
2. (d) Tollen's reagent
Explanation: Formic acid has an aldehyde group. It reduces Tollen's reagent to a silver mirror-like
other aldehydes. Tollen's test is not given by Carboxylic acids.
3. (b) C6H5COCH3
Explanation: Compared with aliphatic ketones, aromatic ketones are less reactive than
aldehydes. The reaction between acetophenone and NaHSO3 is therefore not initiated.

SECTION B
19. In fluoroacetic acid, Fluorine being electron withdrawing group stabilizes the conjugate base
through delocalization of the negative charge
Therefore fluoroacetic acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid.

20. Carboxylic acids have more extensive association of molecules through intermolecular hydrogen
bonding than alcohols. Moreover their boiling points are higher than alcohols of same carbon
atoms.
2
Ethanoic acid exists as dimer in vapour state in which two molecules remain together by
hydrogen bonding. This increases the effective molecular mass to 120.

OR
(a) Butanone is treated with methylmagnesium bromide and then hydrolysed, and
(b) Sodium benzoate is heated with soda lime ?
22. (i) The order of electron withdrawing ability is-
1
1
1
−NO2>F−>−H>−CH3
Therefore, the order of acidic character isO2N−CH2COOH>F−CH2COOH>HCOOH>CH3COOH
(ii) Addition of HCN is a nucleophilic addition reaction.
The +I effect is more in ketone than in aldehyde. Thus ketone will be least reactive in nucleophilic
addition reactions. The presence of electron withdrawing group increases the reactivity towards the
addition of HCN while the presence of electron donating group decreases the reactivity of compound
towards nucleophilic addition reaction.
Benzaldehyde does not favour nucleophilic addition reaction due to resonance stabilisation.
Hence the increasing order of reactivity towards the addition of HCN will beAcetophenone < Benzaldehyde < Acetone < Acetaldehyde

(i) In benzoic acid, the -COOH group is attached to sp2- carbon (more electronegative)while in acetic
acid -COOH group is attached to sp3- carbon(less electronegative)

29. a) Wolff kishner reduction is a chemical name reaction in which aldehydes and ketones are
converted into an alkane in presence of hydrazine, base and thermal conditions. When aldehydes or
ketones are heated with hydrazine and potassium hydroxide in ethylene glycol, it results in the
formation of alkanes.
Let us see the chemical reaction:
1
(b) As we know that, aldehydes are more reactive than alcohol because aldehydes are less hindered
than ketones. Aliphatic ketones are more reactive than aromatic ketones because aromatic ketoses
have delocalisation of electrons. Therefore the reactivity order can be written as:
𝐂𝟔𝐇𝟓𝐂𝐎𝐂𝐇𝟑, < 𝐂𝐇𝟑𝐂𝐎𝐂𝐇𝟑, <𝐂𝐇𝟑 – 𝐂𝐇𝐎
1
(c)Carboxylic acids do not give reactions to carbonyl groups because the lone pair of electrons on oxygen
atoms of the −OH−OH group of carboxylic acid is less electrophilic than the carbonyl group of ketones
and aldehydes.
1
(d) Let us write the product of the given reaction:
1
(e) B is a methyl ketone as it forms yellow precipitate of iodoform, that means it undergoes a haloform
reaction. hence, B is acetone CH3COCH3 . The isomer A does not form any precipitate, therefore it will
not have any methyl ketone. Hence isomer A is propanal CH3CH2CHO

i. Pentan-2-one and Pentan -3 -one Pentan – 2-one contains CH3CO group and as such it will give iodoform test with NaOI [NaOH + I2] while no such group is there in pentan -3- one and so it will not give
iodoform test.
1
ii. Benzaldehyde and Acetophenone Benzaldehyde is an aromatic aldehyde while acetophenone is a
methyl ketone. These may be distinguished as follows.
1
(a) Iodoform test: Acetophenone, due to the presence of CH3CO group, will give iodoform test with NaOI
(NaOH +I2), while benzaldehyde will not give this test.
(b) Silver mirror test: Benzaldehyde, being an aromatic aldehyde, will reduce tollens’ reagent to silver.
On other hand acetophenone, a ketone will not give this test.
iii. Ethanal and Propanal: As ethanal contains CH3CO group it will give iodoform test with NaOH and I2.
On the other hand propanal will not give this test.

Section- D
The following questions are case based questions. Each question has an internal choice and
carries 4(1+1+2) marks each. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
31. Benzene ring in aniline is highly activated. This is due to the sharing of lone pair of nitrogen
with the ring which results in increase in the electron density on the ring and hence facilitates
the electrophilic attack. The substitution mainly takes place at Ortho and para positions
because electron density is more at Ortho and para positions. On reaction with aqueous
bromine all the ortho and para position get substituted resulting in the formation of 2,4,6tribromoaniline. To get a monobromo compound, the amino group is acetylated before
bromination. After bromination, the bromoacetanilide is acid hydrolysed to give the desired
halogenated amine.
a) Why does -NH2 group facilitates electrophilic attack in aniline?
b) Explain why: in aniline, the substitution mainly takes place at Ortho and Para positions.
c) Show the conversion of benzene into aniline.
32. In amines the N atoms of the amino group are SP3 hybridised. Amines readily lose its
electron pair and act as a base. In aliphatic amines ,the alkyl group tends to increase the
electron density on the nitrogen atom due to the +I effect. In aromatic amines, the basic
strengths are influenced by the presence of an electron withdrawing group at the O-, m- and pposition in the ring.
a) Lower member of aliphatic amines are soluble in water . Why?
b) Out of (CH3)3N and and (CH3)2NH which one is more basic in aqueous solution?

20. i) in Friedel crafts reaction, AlCl3 is added as a catalyst which is a Lewis acid. it forms a salt
with aniline due to which the nitrogen of an aniline acquires positive charge this positively
charged nitrogen acts as a strong deactivating group, hence aniline does not undergo Friedel
Crafts reaction.

result electron density on the nitrogen decreases. In contrast in CH3NH2 , + I effect of -CH3
group increase the electron density on the N- atom there for aniline is a weakrbase than methyl
amine and hence, its Pkb value is higher than that of methylamine.

ii) Benzene diazonium chloride reacts with phenol in which the phenol molecule at its para
position is coupled with the diazonium salt to form p-hydroxyazobenzene. This type of reaction
is known as coupling reaction. Similarly the reaction of diazonium salt with aniline yields paminoazobenzene. This is an example of electrophilic substitution reaction.

24. Ammonolysis of alkyl halides with ammonia is a nucleophilic substitution reaction in which
ammonia acts as a nucleophile by donating the electron pair on nitrogen atom to form primary
amine as the initial product. Now, the primary amine can act as a nucleophile and combine with
alkyl halide to give secondary amine and the reaction continuous in the same way to form
tertiary amine and finally quarterly ammonium salt. Thus a mixture of products is formed and it
is not possible to separate individual amines from the mixture.

b) pKb of aniline is lower than the m-nitro aniline.The basic strength of aniline is more that
m-nitroaniline . pkb value is inversely proportional to basic strength. Presence of Electron
withdrawing group decrease basic strength.
C ) Due to the presence of acidic hydrogen in the N-alkylbenzenesulphonamide formed by the

When a protein in its native form, is subjected to physical changes like change in temperature
or chemical changes like change in pH, the hydrogen bonds are disturbed. Due to this, globules
unfold and helix gets uncoiled and protein loses its biological activity. This is called the
denaturation of protein. The denaturation causes change in secondary and tertiary structures
but primary structures remain intact. Examples of denaturation of protein are coagulation of
egg white on boiling, curdling of milk, formation of cheese when an acid is added to milk.

The activity of an enzyme can be affected by a change in the conditions which can alter the
tertiary structure of the protein. These include temperature, pH, and change in substrate
concentration or binding of specific chemicals that regulate its activity.Enzymes generally
function in a narrow range of temperature and pH. Each enzyme shows its highest activity at a
particular temperature and pH called the optimum temperature and optimum pH. Activity
declines both below and above the optimum value. Low temperature preserves the enzyme in
a temporarily inactive state whereas high temperature destroys enzymatic activity because
proteins are denatured by heat. Concentration of Substrate With the increase in substrate
concentration, the velocity of the enzymatic reaction rises at first. The reaction ultimately
reaches a maximum velocity (Vmax) which is not exceeded by any further rise in concentration
of the substrate. This is because the enzyme molecules are fewer than the substrate molecules
and after saturation of these molecules, there are no free enzyme molecules to bind with the
additional substrate molecules.

Cofactors are non-protein chemical compounds which are termed helper
molecules .Cofactors are of 2 types, one with inorganic and other organic, where
the organic ones are called as coenzymes and they are of 2 types, based on bond,
