Question 2.
The compound which does not reduce Fehling solution is [1]
(a) CH₃COOH
(b) HCOOH
(c) HCHO
(d) CH₃COH
Answer:
(a) CH₃COOH

Those compounds which have —CHO group can reduce Fehling solution. Thus, CH₃COOH does not react with Fehling solution.
Moreover HCOOH have —CHO group present in it. Thus, it also reduces Fehling solution.

Question 3.
Pair of compounds, which give positive test with Tollen’s reagent is [1]
(a) glucose and sucrose
(b) fructose and glucose
(c) glucose and fructose
(d) All of the above
Answer:
(c) glucose and fructose

Because of presence of aldehyde group, glucose reduces Tollen’s reagent. Although fructose contain ketonic group, but in the presence of base, it(fructose) again rearranges into glucose, due to which it also reduces Tollen’s reagent.

Question 4.
Alcohol vapours are passed over which of the following catalysts to give aldehydes and ketones? [1]
(a) S or Pd
(b) Ag or Cu
(c) F or Cl
(d) Li or K
Answer:

Question 6.
Lanthanides form complex with following ligand. [1]
(a) F^–
(b) B^–
(c) Cl^–
(d) I^–
Answer:
(a) F^–

F^– have small size and high electronegativity, thus it forms complex with lanthanides easily.

(a) zero order reaction
(b) first order reaction
(c) second order reaction
(d) third order reaction
Answer:
(a) F^–

The decomposition of NH₃ gas on a hot platinum surface is zero order reaction because the rate of this reaction is independent on the concentration of ammonia.

Rate = k[NH₃]°
Hence, this reaction is a zero-order reaction.

Question 8.
Which of the following statements is not correct for amines? [1]
(a) Aniline and other arylamines are usually colourless but get coloured on storage due to atmospheric oxidation.
(b) Lower aliphatic amines are gases.

Question 10.
For the reaction, A + 2B → C,
Rate = k[A][B]
If the concentration of reactant B is doubled, keeping the concentration of A constant, the value of rate constant will be [1]
(a) decreased by two times
(b) increased by four times
(c) increased by two times
(d) no change
Answer:
(c) increased by two times

Rate law for the given reaction,
A + B → C
Rate = k[A] [B]
Rate of reaction with respect to B is of first order
R₁ = k[A][B]
When the concentration of reactant ‘B’ is doubled, then R₂ = k[A][2B]
= 2k[A][B] = 2R₁
∴ As concentration of reactant ‘B ’ is doubled keeping the concentration of A constant, rate of reaction doubles.

Question 11.
Identify the major product of the following reactions? [1]

Reason (R) Lead and lead dioxide both react with sulphuric acid to form lead sulphate. [1]
Answer:
(a) Both (A) and (R) are true, (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

Sulphate is consumed from electrolyte due to formation of lead sulphate, thus density decreases.

Question 15.
Assertion (A) In the presence of enzyme, substrate molecule can be attacked by the reagent effectively.
Reason (R) Active sites of enzymes hold the substrate molecule in a suitable position. [1]
Answer:
(a) Both (A) and (R) are true, (R) is the correct explanation of (A).

Question 16.
Assertion (A) Oxidation of ketones is easier than aldehydes.
Reason (R) C—C bond of ketones is stronger than C—H bond of aldehydes. [1]
Answer:
(d) (A) is false, (R) is true.

Oxidation of ketones is rather difficult than aldehydes because C—C bond of ketones is stronger than C—H bond of aldehydes. Therefore, ketones cannot be oxidised by weak oxidising agent.

Section B
(This section contains 5 questions with internal choice In one question. The following questions are very short answer type and carry 2 marks each.)

Question 17.
For a reaction, the rate law expression is represented as follows
Rate = k[A] [B]^1/2
(a) Interpret whether the reaction is elementary on complex. Give reason to support your answer. [2]
Answer:
For an elementary reaction, order of reaction must be equal to the molecularity but molecularity should be integral.
For the given rate law, order of reaction comes out to be \(\frac{3}{2}\). As molecularity cannot be fractional, therefore, order is not equal to molecularity. Hence, the given rate law do not belong to an elementary
reaction.

(b) Write the units of rate constant for this reaction, if the concentration of A and B is expressed in moles/L
Answer:
Units of rate constant are mol^1/2L^1/2s^-1

Question 18.
Calculate the mass of compound (molar mass = 256 g mol^-1) to be dissolved in 75 g of benzene to lower its freezing point by 0.48 K(K_f = 51.2 K kg mol^-1). [2]
Answer:
Given that, K_f = 5.12 K kg mol^-1, W₁ = 75 g,
∆T_f = 0.48K, M₂ = 256 g mol^-1
∆T_f = \(\frac{K_f \times W_2 \times 1000}{W_1 \times M_2}\)
or 0.48 = \(\frac{5.12 \times W_2 \times 1000}{75 \times 256}\)
∴ w₂ = \(\frac{0.48 \times 75 \times 256}{5.12 \times 1000}\) = 1.8 g

Question 19.
Give reason for the following.
(a) The C—Cl bond length in chlorobenzene is shorter than in CH₃ —Cl. [2]
Answer:
Due to delocalisation of Ione pairs of electrons of the X atom over the benzene ring, C—X bond in halobenzene acquires some double bond character while in CH₃—X, C—X bond is a pure single bond. Therefore, C—X bond in halobenzene is shorter than in CH₃—X.

(b) Name the product(s) formed when 2-bromopropane undergoes dehydrohalogenation reaction.
Answer:

In this reaction, 2-bromopropane undergoes dehydrohalogenation by the loss of HBr. This reaction is an example of elimination reaction.

Question 22.
Using valence bond theory, explain the following in relation to the complex [CoCl₄]^2-.
(a) Type of hybridisation.
(b) Type of complex-(inner or outer orbital).
(c) Nature of complex-(diamagnetic or paramagnetic). [3]
Answer:
In [CoCl₄]^2-, Co is in +2 state and has an outer electronic configuration of 3d⁷.
Cl^– is a weak field ligand so, pairing of electrons will not occur.

Four pairs of electrons one from each Cl^– ion occupy the four sp³-hybrid orbitals.
Therefore, the complex has tetrahedral geometry and paramagnetic nature as it contains three unpaired
electrons.
Thus, the hybridisation is sp³, i.e. the complex is outer orbital complex.

Question 23.
(a) Write an expression that relates the molar conductivity of a weak electrolyte to its degree of dissociation. [3]
Answer:
The degree of dissociation is the ratio of molar conductivity (Λ_m) at a specific concentration C to the molar conductivity at infinite dilution, i.e. limiting molar conductivity, Λ°_m, and express as,
∴ α = \(\frac{\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}}{\Lambda_{\mathrm{m}}^{\circ}}\)

Question 25.
A, B and C are three non-cyclic functional isomers of a carbonyl compound with molecular formula C₄H₈O. Isomers A and C gives positive Tollen’s test whereas isomer B does not give Tollens’s test but gives positive iodoform test.
Isomers A and B on reduction with Zn-Hg/conc.HCl give the same product D. Identify A, B, C and D. [3]
Answer:

• Tollen’s test is given by aldehydes and not by ketones.
• Iodoform test is given by compounds that have a methyl group attached to a carboxyl carbon
  
• The reagent which is used to reduce carbonyl carbon into methylene is Zn-Hg/conc. HCI which is Clemmensen’s reagent.

So, compound A is an aldehyde with molecular formula C₄H₈O and structure will be

Compound B does not give Tollen’s test but gives the Iodoform test. So, compound B is methyl ketone with molecular formula C₄H₈O.
Thus, the compound is

Compound B and A gave the same product D on reacting with Clemmensen reagent. So, the possible structure of D is H₃C—CH₂—CH₂—CH₃.
Compound C is also an aldehyde as it gives positive Tollen’s test. So, the aldehyde may be

as it is an another possible aldehyde isomer of C₄H₈O.

Or

An organic compound with molecular formula C₉H₁₀O, forms 2,4-DNP derivative, reduces Tollen’s reagent and undergoes Cannizzaro reaction. On vigorous oxidation, it gives 1,2-benzene dicarboxylic acid.
Identify the compound and write down the reaction involved Tollen’s reagent.
Answer:
As the given compound with molecular formula C₉H₁₀O, forms a 2,4-DNP derivative and reduces Tollen’s reagent, thus it must be an aldehyde.
On vigorous oxidation, it gives 1,2-benzene dicarboxylic acid and also undergoes Cannizzaro reaction, hence —CHO group is directly attached to the benzene ring.

Therefore, it must be an ortho-substituted benzaldehyde and the only o-substituted aromatic aldehyde which have C₉H₁₀O molecular formula is o-ethyl benzaldehyde.

Question 26.
(a) Name the type of structure of proteins represented in diagram. [3]
Answer:
Proteins are found to exist in two different types of structures viz. α-helix and β-pleated sheet structure, The given structure represents a-helix structure.

(b) Name the type of bond present between the pair of bases of the polynucliotide chains of the double helix.
Answer:
Hydrogen bonding present between the —NH — group of each amino acid residue and the

of an adjacent turn of the helix mainly helps in stabilising the a-helix structure of proteins.

(c) Write one difference between α-helix and β-pleated sheet structures of protein.
Answer:
In α-helix structure of proteins, the polypeptide chains are stabilised by intramolecular hydrogen bonding whereas β-pleated sheet structure of proteins is stabilised by intermolecular hydrogen bonding.

(b) Why Grignard reagent should be prepared under anhydrous conditions?
Answer:
Grignard reagents are very reactive.
In the presence of moisture, they react to give alkanes.

Therefore, Grignard reagents should be prepared under anhydrous conditions.

Question 29.
The cell constant is usually determined by measuring the resistance of the cell containing a solution whose conductivity is already known. For this purpose, we generally use KCl solutions whose conductivity” is known accurately at various concentrations at 298 K temperature as mentioned in given table. [4]

Conductivity,
\(\kappa\) = \(\frac{1}{R}\) × \(\frac{1}{A}\)
where \(\kappa\) = conductivity,
R = resistance
and \(\frac{I}{A}\) = cell constant

Or

How does the conductivity of solutions of different electrolytes in the same solvent and at a given temperature differs ?
Answer:
The conductivity of solutions of different electrolytes in the same solvent at a given temperature differs due to charge and size of the ions in which they dissociate, the concentration of the ions or ease with which the ions move under a potential gradient.

(b) Why does the conductivity of the solution decreases with dilution?
Answer:
On dilution, the number of ions per unit volume decreases. Hence, the conductivity decreases.

(c) Explain with the graph, the variation of molar conductivity of KCl with dilution with respect to given table.
Answer:
For strong electrolyte like KCl, Λ_m increases slowly with dilution.
It is found to vary with concentration according to the Debye-Huckel-Onsager equation.

where, A and B are called Debye-Huckel constants. If solution is diluted (concentration is decreased), there is decrease in ionic attractions hence, molar conductivity increases with decrease in concentration.

Question 30.
Lewis’ formulation of the nature of the chemical bond is in many ways the precursor of valence bond theory. Lewis’ paper, “The Atom and The Molecule”, contains plenty of ideas, some of which were later embedded into valence bond theory. His electron-pair model and its dynamic nature regarding polarity, was formulated 11 years before the onset of valence bond theory” in physics.

Valence bond theory describes covalent bond formation as well as the electronic structure of molecules. The theory assumes that electrons occupy atomic orbitals of individual atoms within a molecule, and that the electrons of one atom are attracted to the nucleus of another atom.

Pauling and Slater subsequently developed the creative notion of hybridisation, which forms localised bonds, which ‘‘determine” the molecular geometry. The angles of these hybrids follow the observed bond angles. Thus, for example, sp is the hybridisation for co-linear bonds, sp² for three trigonal bonds, sp³ for tetrahedral bonds, while sp³d and sp³d² are for bonds directed to the corners of a trigonal bipyramid and octahedron, respectively. As such, these hybridisations allowed a modern discussion of molecular geometries in a chemistry-teaching tools that allow young students to figure out the geometry of molecules, and in some crude way, also their bonding.

Answer the following questions. [4]

(a) Why s-orbital does not show preference to any direction?
Answer:
The s-orbtial is spherically symmetric in shape, so it does not show preference to any direction. It is the same from all the directions.

(b) Using valence bond theory, predict the hybridisation of [CoF₆]^3-.
Answer:
[CoF₆]^3-
Here, CO is present in +3 oxidation state.

F being a weak ligand is unable to pair up its unpaired electrons thus, occupy 4s, 4p, and 4d empty orbitals as

(c) Can valence bond theory predict the magnetic nature of a complex? If yes, justify your answer with example.
Answer:
The VBT only provides us qualitative magnetic nature of the complex.
The magnetic properties of transition metals can be predicted by the number of unpaired electrons present by filling of electron in an orbital and hence, can predict the magnetic property whether diamagnetic or paramagnetic.

e.g. In [NiCl₄]^2-, the central metal ion present in this complex is Ni²⁺ and electronic configuration is Ni²⁺ is [Ar]3d⁸4s⁰.

Two unpaired electrons are present. Hence, the complex ion is paramagnetic.

Or

Imagine you have provided with two following complexes. Explain which of these complexes have square planar structure? [4]

Section E
(The following questions are long answer type and carry 5 marks each. All questions have an internal choice.)

Question 31.
Attempt any five of the following. [5]

(a) Explain the nature of bonding in La₂O₃ and Lu₂O₃.
Answer:
As the size decreases covalent character increases, i.e. on moving from La to Lu. Therefore, La₂O₃ is more ionic and Lu₂O₃ is more covalent.

(b) What is the trend in the stability of oxo salts of lanthanoids from La to Lu.?
Answer:
The oxo salts of lanthanoids contains lanthanoid element as cation and oxygen as anion. According to Fajan’s rule, smaller is the size of cation greater will be its polarization power. Since, the size decreases from La to Lu, polarizing power of cation increases and accordingly distort the electron cloud more effectively on anion. Due to this, the bond strength decreases and stability will also decrease.

(c) Actinoid contraction is greater from element to element than lanthanoid contraction. Why?
Answer:
The decrease in atomic (or ionic) radii (actinoid contraction) in actinoids is greater than lanthanoid contraction because 5f-electrons have poor shielding effect as compared to 4f-electrons. Therefore, the effect of increased nuclear charge leading to contraction in size, is more in case of actinoids.

(d) Why is the radii of 4d and 5d-block elements is almost same?
Answer:
The f-orbitals have very poor shielding effect. Thus, in the case of 5d-block elements the nuclear charge increase on valence shell electrons and result of which size of these elements decrease to a great extent. This phenomenon is known as lanthanoid contraction. Thus, radii of 4d and 5d block elements are almost similar.

(e) What is the trend in acidic character of lanthanoid oxides?
Answer:
Acidic character of oxides increases from La to Lu. As the size of La to Lu decreases, the ability to loose an electron decreases. Hence, acidity will increase.

(f) Complete the following equation, Mn\(\mathrm{O}_4^{-}\) + 8H⁺ + 5e^– →
Answer:
Mn\(\mathrm{O}_4^{-}\) + 8H⁺ + 5e^– → Mn²⁺ + 4H₂O

(g) Out of Cr³⁺ and Mn²⁺, which is a stronger oxidising agent and why?
Answer:
Mn³⁺ is stronger oxidising agent because the change from Mn³⁺ to Mn²⁺ results in half-filled (d⁵) configuration which has extra stability. Thus, it behaves as a strong oxidising agent. On the other hand, Cr³⁺ has d³ configuration, i.e. half-filled t_2g level, so, it is already stable and does not reduce to less stable Cr²⁺.

Question 32.
(a) On mixing two liquids X and Y, volume of the resulting solution decreases. What type of deviation from Raoult’s law is shown by the resulting solution? [5]
What change in temperature would you observe after mixing liquids X and Y?
Answer:
On mixing two liquids X and Y, the decrease in volume of the resulting solution suggests that a non-ideal solution is formed which shows negative deviation from Raoult’s law.
In case of the solutions showing negative deviations from Raoult’s law, ∆H mixing (i.e. enthalpy of mixture) is negative. Thus, on mixing X and Y liquids, evolution of heat takes place, i.e. the temperature of the resulting solution increases.

(b) What happens when we place the blood cell in water (hypertonic solution)? Give reason.
Answer:
When we placed the blood cell in hypertonic solution then due to osmosis, water will flow out of the cell and it would shrink.

(c) A 0.561 m solution of unknown electrolyte depresses the freezing point of water by 2.93°C. What is van’t Hoff factor for this electrolyte?
The freezing point depression constant (K_f) for water is 1.86°C kg mol^-1.
Answer:
Given, m = 0.561 m, ∆T<sub.f = 2.93°C and K_f = 1.86° C kg mol^-1
∆T_f = iK_fm
i = \(\frac{\Delta T_t}{K_t m}\)
= \(\frac{2.93^{\circ} \mathrm{C}}{1.86^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \mathrm{kg} \mathrm{mol}^{-1} \times 0.561 \mathrm{~m}}\) = 2.807

Or

(a) Which type of deviation shown by the mixture of chloroform and acetone? What is the reason behind the deviations shown by different solutions or mixtures? [5]
Answer:
The mixture of chloroform and acetone, shows negative deviation from Raoult’s law.
The positive and negative deviations from Raoult’s law are based on interactions between the component of the mixture.

In case of positive deviation, the solute and solvent interactions are weaker than those of solute-solute or solvent-solvent interactions, while in case of negative deviation the interactions of solute-solvent are stronger than those of solute-solute or solvent-solvent.

(b) The vapour pressure of pure ethanol and acetone are 450 mm and 700 mm of Hg respectively at 350 K. Find out the composition of the liquid mixture if total vapour pressure is 600 mm of Hg. Also, find the composition in the vapour phase.
Answer:
Given : Vapour pressure of pure ethanal (pA)
= 450 mm of Hg
Vapour pressure of pure acetone (p°B)
= 700 mm of Hg ; p_total = 600 mm of Hg; χ_A = ?

On substituting the given values into the above equation, we get
600 = 700 + (450 – 700 )χ_A
100 = 250χ_A ⇒ χ_A = \(\frac{100}{250}\) = 0.40
Thus, the composition of the liquid mixture will be
χ_A = 0.40 and χ_B = 1 – 0.40 = 0.60
Calculation of composition in the vapour phase,
P_A = χ_A × P°_A = 0.40 × 450 mm of Hg = 180 mm of Hg
PB = χ_B × P°_B = 0.60 × 700 mm of Hg = 420 mm of Hg
Mole fraction of A in the vapour phase
= \(\frac{p_A}{p_A+p_B}\) = \(\frac{180}{180+420}\) = 0.30
Mole fraction of B in the vapour phase
= 1 – 0.30 = 0.70

Question 33.
A hydrocarbon ‘A’, (C₄H₈) on reaction with HCl gives a compound ‘B’, (C₄H₉Cl), which on reaction with 1 mole of NH₃ gives compound ‘C’, (C₄H₁₁N). On reacting with NaNO₂ and HCl followed by treatment with water, compound ‘C yields optically active alcohol, ‘D’. Ozonolysis of A’ gives 2 moles of acetaldehyde. Identify compounds A to ‘D’. Explain the reactions involved. [5]
Answer:
On reaction with HCI, hydrocarbon ‘A’ gives ‘B’ which is haloalkane, that means A is an alkene.

On reacting with NH₃, \(\mathrm{NH}_2-\) substitutes Cl in compound ‘B’ to give ‘C’.

‘C gives a diazonium salt with NaNO₂/HCl that liberates N₂ to give optically active alcohol, that means that ‘C’ is an aliphatic amine.
Since, the number of carbon atoms in amine is the same as in compound A’, products of ozonolysis of compound ‘A’ are two molecules of CH₃—CH=O.

Or

(a) Give reasons of the following observations.
(i) Methylamine in water reacts with ferric chloride to precipitate hydrated ferric oxide.
Answer:
Methylamine being more basic than water, accepts a proton from water and OH^– ions are produced which further reacts with ferric ion to give brown ppt. of hydrated ferric oxide.

(ii) Aniline does not undergo Friedel-Crafts reaction.
Answer:
Aniline does not undergo Friedel-Crafts reaction because the reagent AlCl₃ being electron deficient acts as a Lewis acid and attacks on the lone pair of nitrogen present in aniline to form insoluble precipitate and reaction does not proceeds.

(iii) Diazonium salts of aromatic amines are more stable than those of aliphatic amines.
Answer:
Diazonium salts of aromatic amines are more stable than those of aliphatic amines because these are resonance stabilised while no such resonance stabilisation is possible in the corresponding diazonium salts of aliphatic amines.

(b) Arrange the following compounds in
(i) the increasing order of dipole moment. CH₃CH₂CH₃, CH₃CH₂NH₄, CH₃CH₂OH
Answer:
CH₃CH₂CH₃ < CH₃CH₂NH₂ < CH₃CH₂OH

(ii) the increasing order of basic characteristics.
NH₃, (CH₃)₃ N, CH₃ NH₂, (CH₃)₂ NH
Answer:
(CH₃)₂NH > CH₃NH₂ > (CH₃)₃N > NH₃
