Which of the following expressions is correct for rate of reaction given below? 5Br_((aq))^(-)+BrO_(3(aq))^(-)+6H_((aq))^(-)to3BR_(2(aq))+3H_(2)O_((i)) |
|
Answer» `(Delta[BR^(0)])/(Deltat)=5(Delta[H^(+)])/(Deltat)` `5Br_((aq))^(-)+BrO_(aq)^(-)+6H_((aq))^(+)to3Br_(2(aq))+3H_(2)O_(l)` aqueous medium is given ,so except `H_(2)O_(l)` for all SPECIES the rate is as FOLLOWS (in which coefficient is `(1)/(x)`) and with respect to reactant -ve and with respect to product the rate is +ve. Rate=`-(1)/(5)(Delta[Br^(-)])/(Delta t)=-(Delta[BrO_(3)^(-)])/(Deltat)` `-(1)/(6)([DeltaH^(+)])/(Deltat)=+(1)/(3)([DeltaBr_(2)])/(Deltat)` `therefore (Delta[Br^(-)])/(Deltat)=(5Delta[BrO_(3)^(-)])/(Deltat)` `(5)/(6)([DeltaH^(+)])/(Deltat)=-(5)/(3)([DeltaBr_(2)])/(Deltat)` `therefore ([DeltaBr^(-)])/(Deltat)=+(5)/(6)(DeltaH^(+))/(Deltat)` So, option (C )is correct. |

When our target is asked to make this ether startint from alkyl halides. First we recall that ethers can be prepared by substitution reactions of alkoxide anion nucleophiles with alkyl halide electrophiles- The William ether synthesis. The two ways to prepare the target ether are as follows Next we examine the two reactions to determine whether both are expected to give a good yield of the target compound. Since route A combines a strongly basic nucleophile a secondary (2^(@)) alkayl halide we expect the major product to result from elimaination by E_2 mechanism. Route B on the other hand, employs a primary alkylhalide that can not give elimination (It has no hydrogen on the beta-carbon) and that is excellent. Substrate for an S_N2substitution because it is benzylic Route B is the obvious choice. Alkyl phenyl ether can be prepared by heating |

Why are alkyl halides insoluble in water? |
| Answer» Solution : For an alkyl halide to dissolve in water, energy is required to OVERCOME the attractions between alkyl halide molecules and BREAK the HYDROGEN bond in water molecules. LESS energy is released when new attractions are set up between alkyl halide and water molecules. These are not as strong as the ORIGINAL hydrogen bonds in water. Therefore alkyl halides are insoluble in water. | |

|
Answer» Solution :(A) General Methods : By heating manganese dioxide with concentrated hydrochloric acid. `MnO_2 + 4HCl toMnCl_2 + Cl_2 + 2H_2O` However, a mixture of common salt and concentrated `H_2SO_4` is used in place of HCl `4NaCl + MnO_2 + 4H_2SO_4 toMnCl_2 + 4NaHSO_4 + 2H_2O + Cl_2` By the action of HCl on POTASSIUM permanganate. `2KMnO_4 + 16HCl 2KCl + 2MnCl_2 + 8H2_O + 5Cl_2` (B) Manufacture of DICHLORINE : (i) Deacon.s process: By oxidation of hydrogen chloride gas by atmospheric oxygen in the presence of `CuCl_2` (catalyst) at 723 K. `4HCl + O_2CuCl_2 gt2Cl_2 + 2H_2O` (ii) Electrolytic process : Chlorine is obtained by the electrolysis of brine (concentrated NaCl solution). Chlorine is liberated at anode. It is also obtained as a by product in many chemical industries. Anode : `2Cl_(aq) toCl_2(g) + 2e^(-)` Chlorine was discovered in 1774 by Scheele by action ofHCl on `MnO_2`. In 1810, Davy established its elementary nature and suggested the name chlorine on account of its COLOUR (Greek, Chloros = Greenish Yellow). |

What are nucletic acids'? Define complex lipids. Mention any 'two' functions of lipids. |
|
Answer» Solution : Nucleic acids : These are molecules that allow organisms to transfer genetic information from one generation to the next. Nucleic acids, and DNA in particular,k are key macromolecules for the continuity of life. Nucleic acids are macromolecules made up of units called nucleotides. These are two types of nucleic acid : (A) DNA- Deoxyribonucleic acid (B) RNA - Ribonucleic acid Composition of nucleic acid : 1. A phosphate group 2. Sugar 3. Nitrogenous base In DNA molecules, the sugar moiety is 2- deoxyribose, whereas in RNA molecules it is ribose. In DNA, four bases have been found. They are adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C) and thymine (T). The first three of these bases are found in RNA also but the fourth is uracil (U). Two main functions of nucleic acids are: (i) DNA is responsible for the transmission of inherent CHARACTERS from one generation to the next. This PROCESS of transmission is called heredity. (ii) Nucleic acids (both DNA and RNA) are responsible ror protein synthesis in a cell. Even though the proteins are actually synthesised by thevarious RNA molecules in a cell, the massage for the synthesis of a particular protein is present in DNA. Complex lipids : These are esters of fatty acids with ALCOHOL and possess additional groups also. For example, Phospholipids or Phosphatids are compounds CONTAINING fatty acids and glycerol in addition to a phosphoric acid, nitrogen base and other substituents. They USUALLY possess one hydrophilic head and two non-polar tails. Phospholipids can be phosphoglycerides, phosphoinositides and phosphosphingosides. (a) Functions of lipids : (a) Fats are main food storage compounds and serve as reservoir of energy. (b) Presence of oils or fats is essential for the efficient absorption of fat soluble vitamins A, D, E and K. |

What is cell potential and emf ? Explain with suitable examples. |
|
Answer» Solution :(A) (i) Cell Potential: The potential difference between the two electrodes of a galvanic cell is called the cell potential and is measured in volts. (ii) emf: The cell potential is the difference between the electrode potential (reduction potentials) of the cathode and anode. it is called the cell electromotive force (emf) of the cell when no current is DRAWN through the cell. (B) Formula and expression of cell potential: Cell potential of galvanic cell is positive which can be calculated by FOLLOWING formula: `E_(cell)=E_(right)-E_("left")=E_("red (anode)")-E_("red (cathode)")` The anode are on the left and the cathode on the right while representing the galvanic cell. A galvanic cell is generally represented by putting a vertical line betweenmetal and electrolyte solution and putting a double vertical line between the two electrolytes connected by a SALT brige. (C) Expression of Daniell cell : Eg. `Zn_((S))| Zn_((AQ))^(2+)||Cu_((aq))^(2+)|Cu_((S))` Oxidation on anode: `Zn_((S))toZn_((aq))^(2+)+2e^(-)` `underline("Reduction on cathode : "Cu_((aq))^(2+)+2e^(-)toCu_((S)))` Total cell reaction : `Zn_((S))toCu_((aq))^(2+)toZn_((aq))^(2+)+Cu_((S))` Where, Zn electrode in anode and copper electrode are cathode. Daniell cell potential: `E_(cell)=E_(right)-E_("left")` `=E_(Cu^(+)|Cu)-E_(Zn^(2+)|Zn)` |

What is electrolyte cell ? Give its uses. |
|
Answer» Solution :* In an electrolytic cell external source of voltage is used to bring about a chemical reaction. In electrolytic cell external electrical energy get converted into chemical energy. * Uses : Electrochemical process is USEFUL in laboratory as WELL as in chemical industries. Some uses are given as follows: (i) For purification of metals : e.g., impure copper gets converted into copper with high purity. this is the basis of it and for this, impure copper copper gets converted into copper with high purity. this is the basis of it and for this, impure copper metal is used as anode which on passing of DC current, it get dissolved and `Cu^(2+)` of solution get reduced and deposited on CATHODE. (ii) For production of metals in large quantity: e.g., metals like Na, Mg and Al can be obtained by reduction of such large metal ions. it is very useful then sodium and magnesium metals can be obtained by electrolysis of their MOLTEN CHLORIDES. Al can be produced by electrolysis of alumnium oxides in presence of aluminium cryolite. |
