In PCl_(5), phosphorus is in sp^(3) d hybridised state but all its five bonds are not equivalent. Justify your answer with reason. |
| Answer» Solution :`PCl_(5)` has trigonal bipyramid geometry. (Fig. 11.35, page 11/134). It has three equatiorial and two axial bonds. SINCE each axial P-Cl bond is repelle by three bond pairs and each erquatorial P-Cl bond is repelled by only two bond pairs, THEREFORE, axial BANDS are longer are longer (240 pm) than equatroial bonds (202 pm). Thus, all the five P-Cl bonds in `PCl_(5)` are not equivalent. | |

In Ostwald’s process for the manufacture of nitric acid, the first step involves the oxidation of ammonia gas by oxygen gas to give nitric oxide gas and steam. What is the maximum weight of nitric oxide that can be obtained starting only with 10.00 g. of ammonia and 20.00 g of oxygen ? |
|
Answer» Solution :The balanced CHEMICAL equation for the process is `underset(17xx4=68g)(4NH_(3)(g))+underset(32xx5=160g)(5O_(2)(g))tounderset(30xx4=120g)(4NO(g))+6H_(2)O(g)` ACCORDING to the equation, 68 g of NH3 require 160 g of `O_(2)` for OXIDATION. Therefore, 10 g of `NH_(3)` would require `(160)/(68)xx10=23.53g` of `O_(2)`. Since, the used `O_(2)` is only 20 g. `O_(2)` is the limiting reagent. `:.160g` of `O_(2)` gives N=120g `:.20.00g` of `O_(2)` will GIVE NO `=(120)/(160)xx20.00` 15.00g. |

|
Answer» Solution :Balanced chemical reaction : `UNDERSET(=68gm)(underset(4xx17gm)(4NH_(3(g))))+underset(=160gm)(underset(5xx32gm)(5O_(2(g))))tounderset(=120gm)(underset(4xx30gm)(4NO_((g))))+underset(=108gm)(underset(6xx18gm)(6H_(2)O_((g))))` 68 gm of `NH_(3)` is USED with 160 gm `O_(2)`. `therefore10gmNH_(3)=(10xx190)/68=23.53gm` Here only 20 gm of `O_(2)` is given. Now, 160 gm `O_(2)` GIVES 120 gm NO. `therefore20gmO_(2)=(120xx20)/160=15gm` Therefore, 15 gm of NITRIC acid is OBTAINED. |

In organic reaction explain reactant substrate and products obtain from these by common reaction. What is the mechanism of the reaction? |
|
Answer» <P> Solution :In an organic reaction, the organic molecule (also referred as a substrate) reacts with an appropriate attacking reagent and leads to the formation of one or more intermediate (S) and finally products (P).Organic molecule (Substrate)(S) `underset((R ))overset("Reagent")rarr underset(underset("Byproducts(B)")(darr))(["Intermediate"]) rarr` Product (P) Where, S= Substrate, R= Reagent P= Main product, B= BYPRODUCT In= Intermediate product Substrate: Substrate is that reactant which supplies carbon to the new bond. Reagent: The other reactant is called reagent. If both the reactants supply carbon to the new bond then choice is arbitrary and in that case the molecule on which attention is focused is called substrate. Mechanism of reaction: In such a reaction a covalent bond between two carbon atoms or a carbon and some other atom is broken and a new bond is FORMED. A sequential account of each STEP, describing details of electron movement, energetics during bond cleavage and bond formation, and the rates of transformation of reactants into products (kinetics) is referred to as reaction mechanism. Importance of reaction mechanism: The knowledge of reaction mechanism helps in (i) understanding the reactivity of organic COMPOUNDS and (ii) in planing strategy for their synthesis. |
