(a)Why is the purest monomer used in free radical polymerisation? (b).How does the presence ofCCl_(4)orCBr_(4)influence the course of vinylic free radical polymersation. (c )what is the monomer of the polymer given below: (d)Why does hole develope in nylon stocking when adrop ofHClis added to it? |
|
Answer» Solution :(a) Trace of impurities present in alkene ,onomer can act as either chain transfer agents RO inhibitors,If it acts as a chain transfer AGENT,then lower-average -molecular-mass polymer is formed.If it acts as an INHIBITOR,the process of POLUMERISATION is inhibited .Hence ,the pureset monomer us uded to avoid these processes. (b)In vinylic polymerisation`,CCl_(4)`and`CBr_(4)`acts as chain transfer agents.i.e.,it reacts eith thr growing chain to interrupt its further growth and initiat eits chain growth (i.e, produces a new radical). The monomer is (ethylene or acidic hydrolysis of oxirane), (d).This is due to the breaking or acidic hydroysis of amide bond present in nylon.

Explain the hybridisation, geometry and magnetic property of [Ni(Cl)_(4)]^(2-). |
Answer» Solution :(i) Orbitals of `Ni^(2+)` ion ![]() (ii) In PRESENCE of STRONG ligand `CN^(-)` spin pairing takes place and `DSP^(2)` hybridisation takes place. (ii) Four pairs of electrons, one from each CN OCCUPY the four hybrid orbitals. Thus the complex has square planar geometry and diamagnetic because of the absence of unpaired electrons. ![]() For `[Ni(CN)_(4)]^(-2)`Complex: (i) TYPE of hybridisation : `dsp^(2)` (ii) Geometry: Square planar (iii) Magnetic property: Diamagnetic |

(a)When 100 ml of 0.1M NaCN solution is titrated with 0.1 M HCl solution the variation of pH of solution with volume of HCl added will be : (b)Variation of degree of dissociation alpha with concentration for a weak electrolyte at a particular temperature is best represented by : ( c)0.1 M acetic acid solution is titrated against 0.1 M NaOH solution. The difference in pH between 1/4 and 3/4 stages of neutralization of acid will be 2 log 3. |
|
Answer» T,F,T (b) For a weak electrolyte `K_a=(Calpha^2)/((1-alpha))` when `alphaltlt 1` then `alpha=sqrt(k_a/C)` as C increases `implies` `alpha` decreases as C is tending to ZERO `implies` `alpha` will be unity ( c) At `1//4^(th)` neutralisation `CH_3COOH+NaOHtoCH_3COONa+H_2O` `(0.1xx3/4) " " (0.1xx1/4)` `pH=pK_a+"LOG" ([CH_3COO^(-)])/([CH_3COOH])=pK_a+ "log" (1/3)` At `3//4^(th)` neutralisation `pH=pK_a+"log" 3` so difference in pH=`DELTA(pH)="log"3-"log"1/3=2"log"3` |
