(a) NCl_(3) gets readily hydrolysed while NF_(3) does not. Why ? (b) What kind of molecules show disproportionation reactions ? Give one example of a compound each of nitrogen and phosphorus which show disproportiionation reactions. Write chemical equation in each case.

Answer»

Solution :(a) In `NCl_(3), CL` has vacant d-orbitals to accept the lone pair of electrons donated by O-atom of `H_(2)O` molecule but in `NF_(3)`, F does not have d-orbitals. Thus, `NCl_(3)` undergoes hydrolysis but `NF_(3)` does not.
`NCl_(3) + 3 H_(2)O rarr NH_(3) + 3HOCl"," ""NF_(3) + H_(2)O rarr No` reaction
(b) Compounds in which one of elements exists in three DIFFERENT oxidation states can SHOW disproportionation reactions. For example,
`3 Hoverset(+3)(NO)_(2) rarr overset(+5)(HNO_(3)) + 2overset(+2)(NO)+H_(2)O","""4H_(3)overset(+3)(PO_(3))overset(Delta)rarr 3H_(3)overset(+5)(PO_(4)) + overset(-3)(PH_(3))`

(a) NCl_(3) gets hydrolysed to form NH_(3) and HOCl while PCl_(3) on hydrolysis gives H_(3)PO_(3) and HCl. Explain why ? (b) SOCl_(2) can act as a weak acid as well as a weak base. Explain.

Answer»

Solution :(a) N does not have d-orbitals to accommodate the electrons donated by O of `H_(2)O`, therefore, ATTACK of `H_(2)O` occurs on the CL atom which has d-orbitals to accommodate the extra electrons donated by `H_(2)O`. Consequently Cl-O bond is fomed leading to the formation of HOCl and `NH_(3)` as shown below :

In contrast, both P and Cl have d-orbitals to accommodate electrons donated by `H_(2)O`. But P-O bond is much stronger than Cl-O bond. As a result, attack of `H_(2)O` molecules occurs preferentially on P of `PCl_(3)` to form `H_(3)PO_(3)` and HCl.

(b) The basic character of `SOCl_(2)` is due to the presence of a lone pair of electrons on the S-atom. Futher, in `SOCl_(2)`, S ALSO has empty d-orbitals which can be used to accept electrons. Therefore, `SOCl_(2)` also behaves as a LEWIS acid.

A natural gas may be assumed to be a mixture of CH_4 and C_2H_6 only. On complete combustion of 10 L of the gas at STP, the heat evolved was 474.6 kJ. Assuming DeltaHc(CH_4) = – 894 kJ//mol and ""DeltaHC(C_2H_6) = - 1560 kJ//"mole". Calculate the % by volume of each gas in the mixture

Answer»

Solution :LET, V be the VOLUME of `CH_4` in 10L MIXTURE. We have
Amount of methane = `v/(22.4)`, Amount of ethane = `(10- v)/(22.4)`
The expression of heat evolved, we will get
`V/(22.4) xx 894 + (10 - V)/(22.4) xx 1560 = 474.6`
V = 7.45 litre
% of `CH_4 = 74.5%`
% of `C_2H_6 = 25.5%`.
