State the Newland's law of octaves. (i) What are the two exceptions of block division in the periodic table?

Answer»

Solution :The Law of octaves states that, "when elements are arranged in the order of INCREASING atomic weights, the properties of the eighth ELEMENT are a REPETITION of the properties of thefirst element"
(ii) 1.Helium has two electrons. Its electronic configuration is `1s^(2)`?. As per the configuration, it is Supposed to be placed in .s. block, but actually placed in `18^(th)` group which belongs to .p. block. Because it has a completely filled valence shell as the other elements present in `18^(th)` group. It also resembles with `18^(th)` group elements in other properties. Hence helium is placed with other noble gases.
2. The other exception is hydrogen. It has only one s-electron and hence can be placed in group 1. It can also GAIN an electron to achieve a noble gas arrangement and hence it slovens `(17^(th))` group elements). Because of these assumptions, position of hydrogen becomes a special case. Finally, it is placed separately at the top of the periodic table.

State the formal charge of each atom in N_(2)O

Answer»

Solution :Here, FC = formal charge
`N_(A)`= number of nonbonding electron Number of e,lectron in valence orbital of N = 5 Number of electron in valence orbital of O = 6SO, TOTAL number of electron = 16, So,
FC = valence`bar(e) - (N_(A) + " number of BOND " )`
Formal charge of `N_(1) = 5 - (4 + 2) =5 - 6 = - 1 `
Formal charge of `N_(2) = 5 - ( 0 + 4) = + 1 `
Formal charge of `O = 6 - (4 + 2 ) = 0 `
Thus,

State the contribution of Nyholm & Gillespie in VSEPR theory.

Answer»

Solution :Nyholm and Gillespie (1957) refined the VSEPR model by explaining the important difference between the lone pair and bonding pairs of electrons.
While the lone pairs are localised on the central atom, each bonded pair is shared between TWO atoms. As a result, the lone pair electrons in a molecule occupy more SPACE as compared to the bonding pairs of electrons. This RESULTS in greater repulsion between lone pairs ofelectrons as compared to the lone pair - BOND j pair and bond pair - bon pair repulsions. These repulsion effects result in deviations- from idealised shapes and alterations in bond ANGLES in molecules.

State Raoult law and obtain expression for lowering of vapour pressure when nonvolatile solute is dissolved in solvent.

Answer»

Solution :Ranoult.s law: This law states that "in the case of a solution of volatile liquids the partial vapour pressure of each component (A & B) of the solution is directly proporational to its mole fraction.
`P _(A)prop X _(A)`
when `x _(A) =1,` then `k = P^(@)_(A) ""(P_(A)^(@)=` vapour pressure of pure component)
`therefore P _(A) = P _(A)^(@) x a`
` P _(B) = P _(B) ^(@) . x _(b)`
when a non volatile is dissolved in pure WATER, the vapour pressure of the pure solvent will decrease. In such solution, the vapours pressure of the solution will depend only on the solvent molecules as the solute in non-volatile.
`P _("solution") prop x _(A)`
`P _("solution") =k. x _(A)`
when `x _(A) =1,k = p^(@)_("solvent")`
`therefore P _("solution") =p_("solvent"^(@) . x _(A)`
Lowering of vapour pressure `=P _("solvent")^(@)-P_("solution")`
RELATIVE lowering of vapour pressure `=(P^(@)-P)/(P ^(@))=x _(B)`
where `x _(B)=` Mole fraction of solute.

when ` X_A=1 , ` then k =` p_(A)^(@) `
` P_(B) =p_B^(@) ,X_b `
When a nonvolatile solute is dissolved in a pure water the VAPOURPRESSURE of the solution will depend only the solvent molecules as the solute in non-volatile
