Froth Floatation Method- The method has been in use for removing gangue from sulphide ores. In this process a suspension of the powdered ore is made with water. To it, collectors and forth stabilizers are added. Collectors (e.g., pine oils, fatty acids, xanthates, etc.) enhance non-wattability of the mineral particles and froth stabilizers (e.g., Cresols, aniline) stabilize the froth. The mineral particles become wet by oils while the gangue particles by water. A rotating paddle agitates the mixture and draws air in it. As a result, froth is formed which carries the mineral particles. The froth is light and is skimmed off. It is then dried for recovery of the ore particles. Q.20.

A reaction is first order in A and second order in B. (i) Write differential rate equation. (ii) How is the rate affected if the concentration of B is tripled? (iii) How is the rate affected when the concentrations of both A and B are doubled? What is the significance of rate constant in the rate expression? 1 3 2 Ans. (i) rate = k [ Α ] [ Β] 1 2 (ii) r0 = k [ Α] [ Β] 1 2 1 2 r1 = k [ Α ] [3Β] ⇒ r1 = Κ [ Α] .9 [ Β] ∴ r1 = 9× r0 . Hence rate becomes 9 times the initial rate. 1 2 (iii) r0 = k [ Α] [ Β] 1 ∴ 2 1 2 r2 = k [ 2Α ] [ 2Β] ⇒ r1 = Κ 2 [ Α ] .4 [ Β] r2 = 8× r0 . Hence rate becomes 8 times the initial rate. Rate constant of a reaction is equal to the rate of the reaction when concentration of each of the reactant is unity. Q.22. How are the colloids classified on the basis of the nature of interaction between depressed phase and dispersion medium? Describe an important characteristic of each class. Which of these sols need stabilizing agents of preservation? 3 Ans. Depending upon the nature of interaction between the dispersed phase and the dispersion medium, colloids are divided into two categories: (i) Lyophilic sols: The colloids in which the particles of the dispersed phase have a strong affinity for the dispersion medium are called lyophilic sols. Get the best brains on your side. Watch Topper TV! Log on to www.topperlearning.com Call 0120 – 4646900 or e-mail us at [email protected] (ii) These colloidal solutions, even if precipitated, change back to the colloidal form simply by adding dispersion medium. So lyophilic sols are reversible in nature e.g., glue, starch, rubber, etc. Lyophobic sols: The colloids in which particles of the dispersed phase have no or very little affinity for dispersion medium are called lyophobic sols. These are irreversible in nature i.e., once precipitated, they have little tendency to get back into the colloidal form on simply adding dispersion medium e.g., Αs 2S 2 sol. Lyophobic sols need stabilizing agents for their preservation. Or What are detergents? Give their scheme of classification. Why are the detergents preferred over soaps? Ans. A detergent is a surface-active agent used for cleaning dirty surfaces. It contains a nonpolar hydrocarbon chain (hydrophobic part) and polar group (hydrophilic part) with in the molecules and thus shows adsorption and micellization. On the basis of charge on polar part, detergents are classified as follows: (i) Anionic detergents in which large part of the molecule acts as anionic e.g., alkyl benzene-sulphonate. (ii) Cationic detergents, which are mostly acetates or chlorides of quaternary amines e.g., Cetyltrimethyl ammonium chloride. (iii) Nonionic detergents like esters of high molecular mass formed by reaction between polyethylene glycol and stearic acid. Detergents are preferred over soaps as they work even in hard water and acidic phase where soaps become insoluble. They have powerful cleansing action. Q.23. Draw a figure to show splitting of degenerate d orbitals in an octahedral crystal field. How does the magnitude of ∆ 0 , decide the actual configuration of d orbitals in a complex entity? Ans.

Here P represents energy required for electron pairing in a single crystal. (i) If ∆ 0 < Ρ, we have the so called weak field, high spin situation. The fourth electron enters one of the e g orbitals giving the configuration t 32 g e1g . If now a fifth electron is added to a weak field coordination entity, the configuration becomes t 32g e 2 g . (ii) If ∆ 0 > Ρ, we have the strong field, low spin situation and pairing will occur in the t 2g level with the e g level remaining unoccupied in entities of d1 of d 6 ions. *Q.24. Explain the following terms with suitable examples: (i) Frenkel defect (ii) Interstitials Ans.

Log on to www.topperlearning.com Call 0120 – 4646900 or e-mail us at [email protected] 3 (b) Draw the structure of ΧeΟF4 or ΒrF3 . 5 Ans. (a) (i) The central AI atom is ΑΙCΙ3 is electron deficient. Because of its lewis acid character, ΑΙCΙ3 acts as a catalyst in the Friedel Craft’s alkylation and acylation of benzene and helps in generating electrophile for attack on the ring. (ii) Phosphinic acid, Η 3ΡΟ 2 , has one Ρ(ΟΗ ) group and two hydrophilic directly attached to phosphorous. It has only one ionisable hydrogen and hence benzenes as a monoprotic acid. (iii) SF6 is inert due to the presence of sterically protected sulphur atom which does not allow thermodynamically favourable reactions like hydrolysis to take place. On the other hand, the less sterically hindered SF4 undergoes hydrolysis. (iv) The size of silicon atom is larger than that of carbon atoms. So pπ - pπ bonding is not so effective in silicon atoms. However, this is present in carbon atoms in graphite of smaller size. So elemental silicon cannot give graphite like structure. But it resemble diamond and is very hard poor conduct of electricity.

Log on to www.topperlearning.com Call 0120 – 4646900 or e-mail us at [email protected] Or Account for the following: (i) Ammonia is a stronger base than phosphine (ii) The tendency of exhibit +2 oxidation state increase with increasing atomic number in group 14. (iii) HF is weaker acid than HI. 3 Ans. Account for the following: (i) Ammonia is stronger base than phosphine: Both possess a lone pair of electrons on their central atom. They donate this lone pair to some other species and thus behave as Lewis bases. Since atomic size of phosphorous is more than that of nitrogen therefore, negative charge on phosphorous gets diffused, hence ammonia is stronger base than phosphine. (ii) As we move down the group ‘ns’ pair of electrons becomes more and more reluctant in bond formation. Electronic configuration of the elements of group 14 is ns 2 np 2 . Thus only 2 p-orbital electrons are left for bond formation. Therefore, as we more down the group 14 tendency to exhibit ‘+2’ oxidation state increases. (iii) ‘F’ is more electronegative element. Therefore, hydrogen bonding among HF molecules is very strong. Thus liberation of proton becomes very difficult. In case of HI the state of affair is just opposite. Hence HF is a weaker acid than HI. Q.29. (a) How would you account for the following: (i) The transition elements exhibit high enthalpies of atomization. (ii) The 4d and 5d series of the transition metals have more frequent metal-metal bonding in their compounds than do the 3d metals. (iii) There is a greater range of oxidation states among the actinoids than that in the lanthanoids. (b) Write the complete chemical equation for each of the following: (i) Al alkaline solution of ΚΜnΟ 4 reacts with an iodide.

Log on to www.topperlearning.com Call 0120 – 4646900 or e-mail us at [email protected] 5 Ans. (a) (i) Because of having large number of unpaired electrons in their atoms, they have stronger inter atomic interaction and hence stronger bonding between atoms. Consequently, transition elements exhibit high enthalpies of atomization. (ii) The transition metals of 4d and 5d series have greater enthalpies of atomization then the corresponding elements of 3d series. This indicates that the metals of 4d and 5d series have more frequent metal-metal bonding in their compounds than do the 3d metals. (iii) Lenthanoids mainly exhibit +3 oxidation state. In addition, they show lower oxidation state of +2 and higher oxidation state of +4, Actinoids also exhibit +3 oxidation state. In addition, they show a wide range of higher oxidation states from +4 to +7. This is due to comparable energies of 5f, 6d and 7s orbitals in actinoids. (b) (i) 2ΚΜnΟ 4 + ΚΙ + Η 2 Ο → ΚΙΟ3 + ΜnΟ 2 + 2ΚΟΗ (ii) SnCΙ 2 first reduces mercury (II) chloride into mercurous chloride (white) and then into mercury (black). 2ΗgCΙ 2 + SnCΙ → Ηg 2 CΙ2 + SnCΙ4 White Ηg 2 CΙ 2 + SnCΙ 2 → 2Ηg + SnCΙ 4 Black Or An aqueous solution freezes at 272.4 K, while pure water freezes at 273. 0 K.

(a) (i) Co (III) is stabilized because of higher crystal field splitting energy [or strong ligand causes pairing of electrons to give more stable Co (III) ions]. (ii) Transition metals form a large number of interstitial compounds because small atoms of certain non metallic elements (H, B, C, N etc.) get trapped in voids or vacant spaces of lattice of the transition metal. As a result of filling up of the interstitial spaces, such interstitial compounds are hard and rigid. (iii) Under the action of light, decomposition of silver bromide takes place in traces where it is illuminated. The number of silver atoms formed is proportional to the quantity of light falling on the surface. (b) The steady decrease in the ionic radium from La 3+ to Lu 3+ is termed as lenthanoid contraction. Consequences of lenthanoid contraction are (i) Similar physical chemical properties among lenthanoids. (ii) Zr and Hf exist together. Q.29. How does DNA replicate? Describe the mechanism of replication. How is the process responsible for preservation of heredity? 5 Ans. Replication is the process by which a single DNA molecule produces two Identical copies of itself, during cell division. During this process, the two strands of the double helix first separate and each separated strand then serves as a template for the synthesis of new strand. Due to specificity of base-pair, the sequence in the two new strands is complementary to the original. In other words, replication leads to the production of two identical copies of DNA from a single parent DA and a copy of each then passes on to the new cells resulting Get the best brains on your side.
