At the suggestion of Earnest Rutherford, hans Geiger and ernest Marsden bombarded a thin gold foil by alpha-particles from a polonium source. It was expected that alpha-particles would go right through the foil with hardly any deflection. Although, most of the alpha particles indeed were not deviated by much, a few were scattered through veryi large angles. Some were even scattered in the backward direction. The nly way to explain the results, rutherford found, was to picture an atom as being compoed of a tiny nucleus in which its positive charge and nearly all its mass are concentrated. Scattering of alpha-particles is proportional to target thickness and is inversely proportional to the fourth power of sin((theta)/(2)), where, theta is scattering angle. Distance of closest approach may be calculated as: r_("min")=(Z_(1)Z_(2)e^(2))/(4piepsi_(0)K) where, K=kinetic energy of alpha-particles. Q. Alpha particles that come closer to the nuclei:

Answer»

are DEFLECTED more
are deflected LESS
MAKE more collision
are SLOWED down more.

Rutherford's scattering formula fails for vary small scattering angles because:

Answer»

The gold foil is very thin
the kinetic energy of `alpha`-PARTICLE is very high
The full nuclear charge of the TARGET atom is PARTIALLY screened by its electron
There is strong repulsive force between the `alpha`-particles and NUCLEUS of the target.

Answer»

`DeltaH , DeltaS` and`DeltaG` are all POSITIVE
`DeltaHgt 0,DeltaSgt 0` and `DeltaG LT 0`
`DeltaH lt 0, DeltaS gt 0` and `DeltaG lt 0`
`DeltaH GT0, DeltaSgt 0` and`DeltaG = 0`

Solution :As the PROCESS is in equilibrium,`DeltaG =0`. But `DeltaG=0`only when the TWO factors `DeltaH`and `T DeltaS` oppose each other and equal in magnitude `( DeltaG =DeltaH - T DeltaS)`. Thus, we should have either `DeltaH` and `DeltaS`both `+ve` or both -ve, i.e., `DeltaH gt 0` and`DeltaS gt 0` or `DeltaH lt 0` and `DeltaS lt0`

temperature , pressure and catalyst used

Solution :The given reaction is ccompanied by decrease of randomness, i.e., randompanied factor MUST favour opposes the process . Hence , the energy factor must favour , u.e ` Delta H = -ve` which MEANS the reaction is exothermic . Alternatively , backward is dissociation reaction and hence endothermic. Also `n_(p) != n_(R) ` Hence , both temperature and pressure will affect the equilibrium .

Answer»


SOLUTION :For the combustion of methane :
`{:(CH_4+2O_2to+2H_2O),(1 " mole " 2 " MOLES "2xx18=36g),(1"volume" 2" VOLUMES"):}`
`:.1 "volume of " CH_4` requires for combustion,
`O_2 = 2` volumes
`:.280 " mL of "CH_4` will require for combustion,
`O_2 = 2 xx 280 = 560 mL`
Number of moles of `CH_4` in 280 mL at S.T.P.
`=280/22400 =0.0125`
`:. 1 " mole of " CH_4` gives on combustion, water = 36 G
`:.0.0125 " mole of " CH_4` will give on combustion,
water = `36/1 xx0.0125 = 0.45g`
For the combustion of `H_2`:

At some temperature and under a pressure of 4 atm, PCl_(5) is 10% dissociated . Calculate the pressure at which PCl_(5) will be 20% dissociated , temperature remaining same.

Answer»

Solution :`{:(,PCl_(5) ,hArr,PCl_(3),+,Cl_(2)), (" Atm eqm. " ,1-0*1=0*9"mole",,0*1 "mole",,0*1"mole"):}`
Total no. of MOLES ` = 0*9+ 0*1 + 0*1= 1 * 1"mole " `

` p_(PCl_(5)) = (0*8)/(1*2) xxP atm , p_(PCl_(3)) = (0*2)/(1*2) xx P atm , p_(Cl_(2))= (0*2)/(1*2) xx P atm `
` K_(p)= ((0*2 P)/(1*2) xx(0*2)/(1*2))/(( 0*8P)/(1*2))= (0*2)/(1*2) xx (0*2)/(0*8) P = 0*0404("calculated above")`

Since, Kp remains constant and therefore EQUATING for
`alpha=0.1` at p=4atm and `alpha=0.2` at p=p atm
`((0.1)^(2))/(0.9) xx (4)/(1.1)=((0.2)^(2) xx p)/(0.8 xx 1.2) implies p=0.97` atm

Answer»

Solution :In elementary state, HYDROGEN exist as a diatomic molecule. The bond between two hydrogen ATOMS H-H is covalent. The bond dissociation energy is very HIGH `(435.9 Kjmol^(-1))`. So bond CLEAVAGE is extremely DIFFICULT, so hydrogen is less reactive at room temperature.

At room temperature, ammonia gas at 1 atm pressure and hydrogen chloride gas at P atm pressure are allowed to effuse through identical pin holes from opposite ends of a glass tube of one metre length and of uniform cross section. Ammonium chloride is first formed at a distance of 60 cm from the end through which HCl gas is sent in. What is the value of P?

Answer»


Solution :In the present case,
For ammonia, `P_1 = 1 " ATM, " M_1 =17`
for HCl gas, `P_2 = P = ?, M_2 = 36.5`.
Ift is the TIME taken by the TWO gases to meet together and to form ammonium chloride,
rate of diffusion of `NH_3 (r_1) = (100 - 60)/t =40/t`
( `:. " The distance travelled by " NH_3 " in the tube " = 100 - 60 cm)`
and rate of diffusion of `HCI (r_2) =60/t`
For two gases at different pressures, Graham.s LAW can be expressed as
`r_1/r_1 = sqrt(M_2/M_1)* P_1/P_2`
We have `(49//t)/(60//t)=sqrt((36.5)/17) xx1/P`
`:. ""P=2.198` atm

At one litre vessel contains oxygen gas saturated with water vapour at 760 torr and 25^(@)C. At constant temperature, if the gaseous mixture transferred into 500 ml vessel, find out the total pressure in the new vessel. (aqueous tension at 25^(@)C = 23.8 torr)

Answer»

Solution :In ONE litre VESSEL `P_(O_(2)) + P_(H_(2)O) = 750` torr
`P_(H_(2)O) = 23.8` torr , `P_(O_(2)) = 760-23.8 = 736.2` torr
When gaseous MIXURE transferred into 500 ml flask, partial pressure of OXYGEN is doubled but aqueous tension remains constantbecause some WATER vapour condenses to water
Pressure in 500 ml flask ` = P_(O_(2)) + P_(H_(2)O) = 736.2 xx 2 + 23.8 = 1472.4 + 23.8 = 1496.2` torr

At NTP, 1L of O_2 reacts with 3L of carbon monoxide. What will be the volume of CO and CO_2 after the reaction?

Answer»

1L `CO_2`, 1L CO
2L `CO_2`, 2L CO
1L `CO_2`, 2L CO
2L `CO_2`, 1L CO

Solution :`UNDERSET(2 Vol )(2CO)+underset(1vol)(O_2) to underset(2vol)(2CO_2)`
1 vol of `CO_2` reacts with 2 vol of CO
1 L of `CO_2` reacts with 2 L of CO
CO left after reaction = 3-2=1L
1L of `O_2` PRODUCES 2L of `CO_2`
Hence, after the reaction, CO =1L, `CO_2=2L`

At low temperature, Nitrogen dioxide, a reddish brown gas gets associated to form the colourless dinitrogen tetroxide as in the reaction 2NO_(2(g)) harr N_2O_(4(g)). Then al equilibrium

Answer»

There would be an INCREASE in colour intensity
The MIXTURE would become colourless
There would be a DECREASE in colour intensity
There would be no change in colour intensity

Solution :No change in colour `implies` equilibrium
