On the basis of this equation pH = -log [H^+], the pH of 10^(-8) "mol dm"^(-3) solution of HCl should be 8. However, it is observed to be less than 7.0. Explain the reason. |
|
Answer» Solution :The CONCENTRATION `10^(-3)` mol `"dm"^(-3)` INDICATES that the solution is very dilute. So, we cannot neglect the contribution of `H_3O^+` ions PRODUCED from `H_2O` in the solution. Total `[H_3O^+]` = `10^(-8)` + `10^(-7)` M. From this we get the value of pH close to 7 but less than 7 because the solution is acidic. From CALCULATION, it is found that pH of `10^(-8) "mol dm"^(-3)` solution of HCl is equal to 6.96. |

|
Answer» z = x + y `C("graphite") + 1/2O_(2)(g) to CO(G), Delta_(r)H = y kJ"mol"^(-1)`...(b) Subtracting equations (a) and (b) we get `CO(g) + 1/2O_(2)(g) to CO_(2)(g), Delta_(r)H = z kJ"mol"^(-1)`...(c) Equation (c) is OBTAINED by subtracting (a) from (b) Therefore, z = x - y or x = y + z. |

On the basis of quantum numbers justify that the sixth period table should have 32 elements. |
| Answer» SOLUTION :Each period starts with filling of a particular SHELL. The sixth period starts by filling the sixth shell (n = 6). (This corresponds to l = 0,1,2,3,4,5, (s,p,d,f,g,H subsshells) and HENCE there are 36 ORBITALS). As per Aufbau principle, the energy increases in the order 6s 4f 5d and 6p. | |

On the basis of quantum numbers, justify that the sixth period of the periodic table should have 32 elements. |
| Answer» Solution :The sixth period corresponds to sixth shell. The orbitals present in this shell are 6s, 4f, 5p and 6D. The maximum number of ELECTRONS which can be present in these sub-shell is 2 + 14 + 6 + 10 - 32. Since the number of ELEMENTS in a period corresponds to the number of electrons in the shells, the sixth period should have a maximum of 32 elements. | |

On thebasisof quantumnumber, justifythat thesixthperiodof theperiodictableshouldhave 32elements. |
| Answer» Solution :In themodern periodic table , eachperiodstartswith thefillingsof a newprincipal energylevel. Thusthesixthperiodbeginswith thefillingof principalquantumnumber `n=6 ` . Whenn=6,L =0 , 1,2,3 . Butaccordingto aufbauprinciplethe electronsare addedto differentorbitalsin orderof theirincreasingenergies . Now theenergyof 6d- subshellis higherthan thatof 7s- subshellbutenergies of5d-and 4f- subshells arelower thanthat of6d-subshell . Thereforein 6thperiodelectronscan befilledin only 6s- 4f, 5d and6p- subshellswhoseenergiesincreasein THEORDER `: 6 s lt 4f lt5 d lt6 p`Now s- subshells hastwo p-subshell has threed-subshellhas fiveand f- subshellhas sevenorbitals. Hencein allthere are 16 (2+ 3 +5 + 7)orbitalsthat canbe filledin THISPERIOD. Sinceaccordingto pauli's exclusions PRINCIPLE eachorbitalat the maximumcan accommodate two elements therefore16 orbitals at the d maximum can have32electrons and hencesixthperiodhas 32elements. | |

On the basis of molecular orbital treatment of various aromatic compound, it has been observed that an aromatic compound must fulfil the following theoritical requirements It must have an uninterrupted cyclic cloud of pi-electrons above and below the plane of the molecule (often called as pi-cloud). Let us look what does this mean? (i). for the pi-cloud to be cyclic, the molecule must be cyclic. (ii). For the pi-cloud to be uninterrupted, every atom int he ring must have a p-orbital iii). for the pi-cloud to be fomred, each p-orbital must be able to overlap with the p-orbitals on either side of it. therefore, the molecule must be planar.
