Answer» Solution :ELEMENT x = 32%, y = 24%, z = 44% Relative number of atoms x = 2 , y = 1 , z = 0.5 Molar mass of the compound = 400 g. (i) Atomic mass of the element. Relative number of atoms = `("Percentage composition")/("Atomic mass Atomic mass")` `:.` Atomic mass = `("Percentage composition")/("Relative No. of atoms")` Atomic mass of x = `32/2` = 16 Atomic mass of y = `24/1`=24 Atomic MASSOF z =`44/0.5`=88 (ii) Empirical formula of the compound `x_(4)y_(2)z_(1)` Molecular mass of the compound = 400 n= `("Molecular mass")/("Empirical formula mass")=400/200`=2 (III) Molecular formula of the compound = `x_(8)y_(4)z_(2)`

Expansion of a gas in vacuum is called free expansion.Calculate the workdone and the change in internal energy when 1 litre of ideal gas expandsisothermally into vacuum until its total volume is 5 litre ? |
| Answer» Solution :`w= -P _("EXT") DELTAV`. As`P_(ext) = 0` , therefore, `w=0` . ltbrlt As internal energyof an idealgas DEPENDS only on temperature, therefore,for isothermal expansion of an ideal gas , internalenergy remains constant, i.e., `DELTAU =0`. [ Also,remember that as`H= U +PV, DeltaH = Delta ( U+PV)= DeltaU +P DeltaV = DeltaU _nR ( DeltaT)`. For isothermal process, `DeltaT = 0`, and also `DeltaU =0` as stated above, therefore, `DeltaH =0 ]` | |

Expansion of a gas in vacuum is called free expansion. Calculate the work done and the change in internal energy when 1 litre of ideal gas expands isothermally into vacuum until its total volume is 5 litre ? |
|
Answer» Solution :Work DONE of a gas in vacuum, `W=-p_("ext") (V_(2) - V_(1) )` As `P_("ext" ) = 0` so, `W= -0(5-1) =0` As internal energy of an ideal gas depends only on temperature, therefore, for isothermal expansion of an ideal gas, internal energy remains constant, i.e., `Delta U=0` As `H= U + PV, Delta H = Delta U (U+ pV)= Delta U + pDelta V = Delta U + n R (Delta T)`. For isothermal process, `Delta T = 0 and` also `Delta U = 0`, as STATED above, therefore, `Delta H=0`. |

Excited atoms emit radiations consisting of only certain discrete frequencies or wavelengths. In spectroscopy it is often more convenient to use frequencies or wave numbers than wavelength because frequencies and wave numbers are proportional to energy and spectroscopy involves transitions between different energy levels. The line spectrum shown by a mono electronic excited atom (a finger print of an atom) is called atomic spectrum. 1/(lambda) = Z^2 R [1/(n_1^2 - 1/(n_2^2)] The given diagram indicates the energy levels of certain atom. When an electron moves from 2E level to E level, a photon of wavelength lambda is emitted. The wavelength of photon emitted during its transition from (4E)/(3)level to E level is |
|
Answer» `lambda/3` `(hc)/(lambda) = E implieslambda = (hc)/(E) ` ALSO, `(hc)/(lambda_1) = (4E)/(3) - E = E/3` `E= 3 lambda` |

The line spectrum shown by a mono electronic excited atom (a finger print of an atom) is called atomic spectrum. 1/(lambda) = Z^2 R [1/(n_1^2 - 1/(n_2^2)] The ratio of wavelength for II line of Balmer series and I line of Lyman series is |
|
Answer» Solution :For II line of Balmer : `n_1 = 2 , n_2= 4` , `1/(lambda_B) = R_H XX [1/(2^2) - 1/(4^2) ] = R_H xx 3/(16)` For I line of Balmer : `n_1= 1 , n_2 = 2 `, `1/(lambda_L) = R_H xx [1/(1^2) - 1/(2^2)] = R_H xx 3/4 therefore (lambda_B)/(lambda_L) = 4` |

Example The measurement of heat change at constant pressure with a neat diagram. |
|
Answer» Solution :Heat change at constant PRESSURE ( at atmospheric pressure) can be measured using a coffee cup calorimeter. A SCHEMATIC REPRESENTATION of acoffee cup calorimeter is given in Figure. Instead of bomb, a Styrofoam cup is used in this calorimeter. It Acts as good adiabatic walland doesn't allow transfer of heat produced during the reaction to its surroundings. This entire heat ENERGY is ABSORBED by the water inside the cup. This method can be used for the reactions where there is no appreciable change in volume . The change in the temperature of water is measured and used to calculate the amount of heat that has been absorbed or evolved in the reaction using the following expression. `q=m_(w)C_(W)DeltaT` Where `m_(W)`is the molar mass of water and `C_(W)` is the molar heat capacity of water `(75.29 kJ K^(-1) mol^(-1))`

Every amino acids has a carboxyl group and an amino and each group can exist ian acidic form or a basic form depending on the pH of the solution in which the amino acid is dissolved. The carboxyl groups of the amino acids have pka values of approximately 2, the protonated amino group have pka values neare 9. therefore, in a very acidic solutions (pH near zero), both the groups will be in their acidic forms. At a pH of 7 (which is greater than the pka of the protonated amino group), the carboxyl group will be in its basic form and the amino group will be in its acidic form. in a strongly basic solution (say pH=11) both the groups will be in the basic form. underset("(neutral not isolated)")(R-underset(NH_(2))underset(|)(CH_(2))-overset(O)overset(||)(C)-OH)overset(H^(+))(hArr) underset("(A)")(R-underset(NH_(3))underset(|+)(CH)-OH) hArrunderset("(B)")(R-underset(NH_(3))underset(+|)(C)-overset(O)overset(||)(C)-O^(-))+H^(+) hArr underset("(C)")(R-underset(NH_(2))underset(|)(CH)-overset(O)overset(||)(C)-O) For B is called |
