What is the effect of added inert gas on the reaction at equilibrium ? |
| Answer» Solution :When an inert gas (i.e , a gas which does not react with any other SPECIES involved in EQUILIBRIUM) is added to an equilibrium system at CONSTANT volume, the total number of moles of gas present in the container increases, that is, the total pressure of GASES increases. The partial pressure of the reactants and the products or themolar concentration of the substance involved in thereaction remains unchanged . Hence at constant volume, addition of inert gas has no effect on equilibrium. | |

|
Answer» Solution :Atomic number of oxygen =8. Electronic configuration of oxygen `=1s^(2)2s^(2)2P^(4)`. When two oxygen atoms COMBINES, the molecular orbital energy level diagram is as shown in the figure. From the diagram, the molecular electronic configuration of oxygen is `sigma_(1s^(2)),sigma_(1s^(2))^(***),sigma_(2s^(2))^(***),sigma_(2p_(2)^(2)),{pi_(2p_(x))^(2)=pi_(2p_(y))^(2)}` `{pi_(2p_(x)^(1))^(***)=pi_(2p_(y)^(1))^(***)}` Bond order `=("no. of BMO"e^(-)-"no. of"ABMOe(-))/2` `=(N_(be)-N_(ABE))/2` Here BMO electrons `sigma_(1s)^(2),sigma_(2s^(2)),sigma_(2p_(x)^(2)),{pi_(2p_(x)^(2)=pi_(2p_(y)^(2))}` i.e. `N_(be)=10` ABMO electrons `sigma_(1s^(2))^(***),sigma_(2s^(2))^(***),sigma_(2p_(x)^(1))^(***){pi_(2p_(x)^(1))^(***)=pi_(2p_(y)^(1))^(***)}`, i.e. `N_(abe)=6` `BO=(10-6)/2=4/2=2` i.e. between oxygen there exists double bond. Magnetic property: Therefore are two UNPAIRED electrons `{pi_(2p_(x)^(1))^(***)=pi_(2p_(y)^(1))^(***)}` therefore, oxygen molecule is paramagnetic in nature. |

What volume of nitrogen at S.T.R can be obtained from a mixture of 10 g each of NH_4CI and NaNO_2. |
|
Answer» `underset(53.492 g)(NH_(4)Cl) + underset(69 g)(NaNO_(2)) to underset(64.052 g)(NH_(4)NO_(2)) + NaCl` `underset(64.052 g)(NH_(4)NO_(2)) to underset(22.4 "L at S.T.P.")(N_(2)) + 2H_(2)O` According to these equations, 53.492 g of `NH_4CI` react with 69 g of `NaNO_2` to FORM 22.4 L of `N_2` at S.T.R Since, given mixture contains 10 g each of `NH_4CI` and `NaNO_2`, it is obvious that `NH_4CI` is in excess and some PART of it will be left behind. Hence, `NaNO_2` is the limiting reagent in this case. `therefore 69 g` of `NaNO_(2)` from `N_(2) = 22.4 L` at S.T.P `therefore 10 g` of `NaNO_(2)` will form `N_(2) = (22.4)/69 xx 10 = 3.25 L` THUS, the given mixture will GIVE 3.25 L at S.T.P. |

What is the arrangement of atoms in the lattice structure of diamond and give contribution of each C atom ? |
|
Answer» SOLUTION :Diamond is a covalent ctystal in which each C -atom is` sp^(3)` hybridized. THUS, each C-atom is covalently bonded to four othertetrahedrally. These tetrahedra are linked together into a three dimesionalgiant molecule. The structureof diamond is similar to that of ZnS ( in which `S^(2-)`ions form fcc lattice and `ZN^(2+)` ions are present on the body diagonals and occupy alternate tetrahedral voids). In diamond, we have C-atoms is place of ` Zn^(2+) and S^(2-)`ions. Thus, diamond has face - centred cubic STRUTURE in which C -atoms are present at the corners as well as face- centres and alternatetetrahedral voids. Contribution of C- atoms at the corners = ` 8 xx 1/8=1` Contribution of C-atoms at face-centres = ` 6 xx 1/2 =3` As four C -atoms are present on the body diagonals i.e, in the alternate tetrahedral voids, their contribution = 4. Total no. of C -atomsin the unit cell =1+3+ 4= 8 . |
