7612.

Arrange giving reason the following elements in increasing order of their atomic size : (a) Be, O, F (Given that they beiong to 2nd, 16th and 17th groups respectively and to 2nd period). (b) I, CI, F (Given that they belong to 5th, 3rd and 2nd periods respectively of 17th group). (c) Mg, N, P (Given that Mg and P belong to 2^(nd)" and "15^(th) group respectively of 3^(rd) period and N belongs to 15^(th)" group of "2^(nd) period).

Answer»

Solution :(a) All these elements are present in the `2^(nd)` period but in different group. The increasing order of their atomic RADIUS is : `FltOltBe.`
(b) These elements are present in the same group but in different periods. Since the atomic size INCREASES down the group `(2^(nd) , 3^(RD)" and "5^(th) "periods")` the increasing order of atomic radius is : `FltClltI`
(c) On similar line, the increasing order of atomic radius is : `NltPltMg.` For more clarification, please consult Long Form of PERIODIC Table.
7613.

Arrange giving reason the following elements in the increasing order of their atomic size: a) Be, O, F (Given that they belong to 2nd, 8th, and 9th groups and 2nd period respectively) b) I, CI, F (Given that they belong to 5th, 3rd, and 2nd period respectively in the same group) c) Mg, N, P (Given that Mg and P belong to 2nd and 15th group respectively of 3rd period and N belongs to 15th group of 2nd period)

Answer»

<P>

Solution :a) `F < O < Be`, since atomic size decreases from left to right in a period.
B] `F < Cl < 1`, since atomic size increases down a group.
c)`N < P < Mg`, because Mg, being in LOWER group, has the largest atomic size. P has a LARGER size COMPARED to N as it lies below N in the same group.

7620.

Are the magnetic quantum number and angular momentum of an electron related to each other? Explain.

Answer»

Solution :Magnetic quantum number represents the spatial orientation of the electrons that belong to same MAIN and subenergy levels. Angular momentum is fixed for the orbitals associated with same 'n' and 'l' values. The degeneracy of the orbit- als gets DISTURBED by applying externl magnetic field or electric field due to the CHANGE in angular momentum. Since the electrons are movingcharged particles, they have their own magneticfield that has a particular direction and the direc-tion of the magnetic field is different for different orbitals BELONGING to the same main and suben-ergy levels. Hence, the influence of the EXTERNAL magnetic or electric field is also different for different orbitals, which, in turn, changes the angu- lar momentum of the electrons and their degen-eracy gets lost.

Are ore gives carbon dioxide on treatment with a dilute acid. What steps will you take to convert such a concentrated ore into free metal?

Answer»

Solution :A metal CARBONATE REACTS with a dilute acid to from carbon dioxide. Therefore, this ore is a carbonate ore. Carbonate ore is converted into free metal in the FOLLOWING two STEPS:
(i) Calcination: the carbonate ore is strongly heated in the absence of AIR to get the metal oxide.
Metal carbonate `to^(Calcination)` Metal oxide +Carbon dioxide
(ii) Reduction: The metal oxide is reduced with carbon to get free metal.
Metal oxide +`Carbon_((Coke)) to^(Reduction)`+Metal+Carbon monoxide.

Write the balanced equation with state symbols for the following chemical reactions. (i) Solutions of barium chloride and sodium sulphate in water react to give insoluble barium sulphate and the solution of sodium chloride. (ii) Sodium hydroxide solution (in water) with hydrochloric acid solution (in water) to produce sodium chloride solution and water.

Answer»

Solution :When a solution of sodium sulphate is added to a solution of barium CHLORIDE a white precipitate of barium sulphate will be formed immediately. This precipitate is INSOLUBLE in dil-Hydrochloric ACID and also insoluble in water. This type of reaction is called precipitation reaction as the `BaSO_4`precipitate thus formed is of white COLOUR.
`Na_2 SO_4 (aq) + BaCl_2 (aq) to BaSO_4(s) + 2NaCl(aq)`
Since, barium sulphate is insoluble in water. So it will precipitate as a SOLID, whereas the sodium chloride will remain in solution.

Aqueous solution of NaCl is not used for electrolytic isolation of sodium metal. Give reason.

Answer»

SOLUTION :Because in an AQUEOUS solution of sodium chloride, the HYDROGEN ions of water are REDUCED in preference to sodium ions.
7636.

Aqueous solution of electrolyte is a better conductor than fused electrolyte. Give reason.

Answer»

Solution :Due to the high dielectric constant of water, the dissociations of electrolyte into ions is GREATER in aqueous solution than in fused electrolyte. As a RESULT, the CONCENTRATION of free ions in aqueous solution is greater than in fused state. Therefore, conductivity of aqueous solution of electrolyte is greater than that of fused electrolyte.
