Answer»

is the ANSWER

13.

HCL is present in our stomach yet it is said an inorganic acid. why??

Answer»

acids are compounds which are organic and are acidic in NATURE. We can't say a compound is organic just because it is produced in an ORGANISM. HCl is produced in our body but it is not an organic compound. To be organic, there should be COVALENTLY BONDED carbon atoms in it. There is no covalently bonded carbon in HCl. So HCl is an acid, infact a very strong acid; but not an organic acid.

14.

If gas A is four times denser than gas B then their ratio of rate of diffusion is?

Answer»

on is a PROCESS in which a gas moves from a region of high concentration to a region of lower concentration.rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the square root of MASS.now, in a CONTAINER, gas occupies the volume of the container.so gas A and gas B have same volume when placed in the same container.now mass is directly proportional to the density of the gas.so, d1/D2 = (m1/m2)^1/2 = (p1v/p2v)^1/2 = (p1/p2)^1/2d1, d2 rate of diffusion of gases a and b respectively.similarly, m is the mass of the gas,p is the density of the gas,v is the volume of the gas.u can easily remember the expression as,when something is heavier (or denser), it's more difficult for it to travel than something that's lighter than it.

lastic1)Can be melted2)Can be moulded to any desired SHAPE any number of TIMES .3)It can be recycled4)It can be remelted  desired colour can be applied.Example: polythene,polystyreneThermosetting plastic1)Can not be melted2)Can be moulded to any desired shape only once3)It can not be recycled 4)After moulding it for the first time , remelting , changing colour is impossible .Example : melamine , bakelite

17.

NCERT VIII - Sciences 'Avoid plastics as far as possible'. Comment on this advice.

Answer» MATERIALS are non-biodegradable and hence it is not advisable to use. it has many adverse effects on our environment. Plastics which are buried in soil caused soil POLLUTION. When it is burnt, many harmful GASES are produced leading to air pollution. They pose a threat to aquatic LIVES when disposed in water sources. So instead of USING plastic, we can use biodegradable substances which are eco-friendly like jute bags, paper bags etc.

Q!. 0.5 g of KCl was dissolved in 100 g of water and the solution originally at 200 C, froze at -0.240 C. Calculate the percentage dissociation of the salt. (Given :Kf for water = 1.86 K kg /mol, Atomic mass: K = 39 u, Cl= 35.5 u)

Answer»

in Tf (freezing temperature) = solvent's freezing point - SOLUTION's freezing point. (coz on addition of solute, freezing point tends to DECREASE)change in Tf = (0+273) - (-0.240+273) = 0.240 Kelvinchange in Tf = (i)(Kf)(m)i is van't hoff factorKf is freezing point depression constant.m is the molality.moles of solute= 0.5/(39 + 35.5)MASS of solvent in kg = 100/1000molality = moles of solute/ mass of solvent in kgKf is given.solve for i.next, (alpha) = (i-1)/(n-1)n is 2, since no. of moles formed after dissociation of kcl in water is 2 (k+ and cl-)alpha/100 is PERCENTAGE dissociation.

Calculate the solubility of H2 in water at 25 degree celsius if its partial pressure above the solution is 1 bar. given that henry's constant for H2 in water at 25 degree celsius is 71.18 kbar. need the answer very urgentlyy!!

Answer»

law states that : where p = partial pressure of the gas above the solution.    is the Henry's solubility constant for the solvent & solute at given T°C    c = molar CONCENTRATION  of the solute in the solution in  moles/Litre  at given T°Cp = 1 BAR    and    =71.18 kbar-Litre/mol   c = 1  / 71.18 * 10³ = 14.048 mol/Litre concentration =  14.048 mol/Litre  or    28.096 gms/Litre

39.

The chemical property of an element is determined by the atomic mass or atomic number of an atom.Give reason

Answer»

number =Z= number of protons in an atomAs atom is electrically neutral, Number of protons =number of electrons.Once we know the number of electrons we can arrange the electrons in different shells and find out the valence electrons and valency.So valency of an atom is defined as its combining capacity which gives us an idea of how many electrons the atom will loose or gain to attain stability.hence its reactivity and chemical properties are also based on valency.Hence chemical property of an element is determined by its ATOMIC number.For example : OXYGEN - Atomic number =8electronic configuration-1s²2s²2p⁴It has 6 valence electrons and valency=2Hence its placed in Group  16 of periodic table with other ELEMENTS like sulphur ETC having the same chemical properties.

Which of the following on heating with aqueous KOH, produces acetaldehyde: A. CH3CH2Cl B. CH2Cl.CH2Cl C. CH3CHCl2 (Correct Answer) D. CH3COCl give reason n reaction pl

Answer»

cThe geminal dihalides are boiled with AQUEOUS KOH or NaOH. It produces aldehydes and ketones. geminal dihalide (R-CHX2) having two halogen atoms situated on terminal carbon ATOM, are hydrolysed by aq. KOH or aq. NaOH FIRST produced a unstable dihydroxy compound. Then converts into an aldehyde by loss of water molecule. 1-1- dichloroethane is GERMINAL dihalide which REACT with KOH and produce unstable hydroxyl compound then loss of water molecule acetaldehyde produce See the attachment for reaction.

Acetylene shows acidic properties . why and give two reactions

Answer»

ne is a terminal alkyne and carbon in acetylene (or in general in a alkyne) is sp hybridised. As in sp HYBRIDISATION s CHARACTER is 50%(as compared to 25% in SP3 and 33.3% in sp2) and we know that the more is s character the more is the penetration power and hence more is the electroNegativity. Since in any TERMINAL ALKYNE LIKE ACETYLENE carbon is BONDED only to a hydrogen which is fairly less electronegtive than carbon so the sp character of carbon allows it to hog or take the electrons of one hydrogen quite easily and in this process itself becomes negatively charged and therefore h+ is released. This makes the acetylene acidic (acidic means to give h+) Sodium +acetylene = sodium acetalinide (na c triple bond c na)+ h2 (sodium reacts only with water and acids to give hydrogen and both are acidic which again shows that acetylene is acidic in nature) Acetylene +tollens reagent = silver mirror of Ag (s)[gives positive tollens TEST which shows its acidic character]

A gas is to be filled from a tank of capacity 10 000 liters into cylinders each having capacity of 10 litres. The condition of the gas in the tank is pressure inside the tank is 800 mm of Hg and temperature inside the tank is -3degree celcius. When the cylinder is filled, the pressure gauge reads 400 mm of Hg and temperature is 0degree celcius. Find the number of cylinders required to fill the gas

Answer»

,000 litres      P1 = 800 mm Hg          T1 = -3 °C = 270°K     Volume of a cylinder = 10 litresLet there be n cylinders used to fill all the gas from the tank.     V2 = 10 * n  litres.      T2 = 0 °C = 273 °K      P2 = 400 mm HgThe ideal gas law states that :       P1  V1 / T1  =  P2 V2 / T2        V2 =  P1 V1 T2 / (T1 P2)             = 800 * 10,000 * 273 / (270 * 400)             = 20, 222.22  litres             = 10 * n      n = 2, 022.22 cylinders           or  2, 023 cylinders  with the LAST  cylinder having less of the gas as compared to the other cylinders.
