Reduction of alumina that is obtained, either by Hall's proces or Bayer's process, to aluminium metal is carred out by electrolysis. During this process, cryolite and fluorspar are added to alumina, the entire mixture is covered with coke powder. (i) Why can alumina not be directly electrolysed? (ii) What is the role of addition of cryolite and fluorspar? (iii) What are the different cathodic and anodic reaction taking place during electrolysis?

Answer»

Solution :(i) Alumina can be directly elecrtolysed because alumina has high thermal stability and hence, very high temperature is required for melting pure alumina.
(ii) Cryolite and fluorspar are ADDED to alumina in ORDER to decrease the melting point of alumina and increase the electrical conductivity of the mixture.
(iii) For the electrolysis of alumina, cryolite and fluorspar are added to it. The mixture undergoes electrolysis in the following way.
`Al_(2)O_(3)to2Al^(+3)+3O^(-2)`
`Na_(3)AlF_(6)to3Na^(+)+Al^(+3)+6F^(-)`
`CaF_(2)toCa^(+2)+2F^(-2)`
At anode : `O^(2-)-2e^(-)to[O]""C+2[O]toCO_(2)`

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions given below: In the Modem Periodic table, the elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic numbers . Thi s arrangement is based on the Modern Periodic law, which states that the properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic numbers. In the Modern Peroidic table, each column is called a group and each row is called a period. Elements within the same group show similarity and ggradation in properties. This is due to the same number of electrons in the outermost shell. Which pair of elements do you think will havesimilar properties? (a) Sodium and Argon (b) Sodium and Potassium (c) Potassium and Neon

Answer»

Solution :The PAIR of elements having similar properties are,(b) Sodium and Potassium as they BELONG to the same GROUP i.e. group 1 of Modem PERIODIC table.

In the Modern Peroidic table, each column is called a group and each row is called a period. Elements within the same group show similarity and ggradation in properties. This is due to the same number of electrons in the outermost shell. What is the trend in the variation of valency while going down a group?

Answer»

SOLUTION :All elements in a group have the same NUMBER of electrons in the outermost SHELL. Therefore, down the group, VALENCY remains the same. Valency of group 1 elements is 1 and that of group 2 elements is 2. The valency of group 18 elements is ZERO because they are noble gases with completed outermost shell.

Read the following paragraph and answer the questions given below: Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev was the first to classify elements on the basis of their fundamental property, the atomic mass, and also on the similarity of chemical properties. When Mendeleev started his work, 63 elements were known. He examined the relationship between the atomic masses of the elements and their physical and chemical properties. Among chemical properties Mendeleev concentrated on the compounds formed by the elements with oxygen and hydrogen. He selected hydrogen and oxygen as they were very reactive and formed compounds with most elements . The formulae of the hydrides and oxideswere treated as one of the basic properties of an element for its classification. He sorted out the elements with similar properties and pinned the cards together on a wall. He observed that most of the elements got a place in the periodic table and were arranged in the order of their increasing atomic masses. It was also observed that there occurs a periodic recurrence of elements with similar physical and chemical properties . On this basis Mendeleev formulated a periodic law which states that "The properties of the elements arethe periodic function of their atomic masses". What is Mendeleev's Periodic Law?

Answer»

SOLUTION :Mendeleev.s Periodic Law is "The PROPERTIES of ELEMENTS are the periodic function of their atomic MASSES".
