Why are Mn^(2+) compounds more stable than Fe^(2+) comounds towards oxidation to their +3 state ?

Answer»

Solution :Electronic configuration of `Mn^(2+)` is `3d^(5)` which is HALF FILLED and hence stable. Therefore, 3rd ionizatio enthalpy is very high, i.e., 3rd electron cannot be LOST easily. In case of `FE^(2+)` , electronic configuration is `3d^(6)` . Hence, it can loseone electron easily to give the stable configuration `3d^(5)`

What are thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers ? Give one example of each.

Answer»

Solution :Thermoplastic POLYMERS : These are the linear or slightly branched long chain molecules capable of repeatedly softening on heating and hardening on cooling. These polymers possess intermolecular forces of ATTRACTION intermediate between those in ELASTOMERS and fibres. Polythene and polystyrene are examples of thermoplastic polymers.
Thermosetting polymers : These polymers are cross linked or heavily branched molecules, which on heating undergo extensive cross linking in MOULDS and become infusible. These cannot be reused. BAKELITE, urea-formaldehyde resins are examples of thermosetting polymers.

Which of the following is a secondary standard substance?

Answer»

`Na_(2)CO_(3). 10H_(2)O`
`FeSO_(4).(NH_(4))_SO_(4). 6H_(2)O`
`KMnO_(4)`
`Na_(2)S_(2)O_(3). 5H_(2)O`

Solution :This is because permanganate solutions are intrinsically unstable is acidic solution, and decompose slowly. Decomosition is catalysed by sunlight, so `KMnO_(4)` solutions should be stored in dark bottles and they must be standaredized frequently.
`4MnO_(4)^(-)+4H^(+) rarr 4MnO_(2)+3O_(2)+2H_(2)O`
Sodium carbonate, `Na_(2)CO_(3)*10 H_(2)O` is a primary standard for solution of acids.
Ferrous compounds are easily oxidized and so are difficult to obtain pure. However, the double salt `FeSO_(4)*(NH_(4))_(2)SO_(4)*6H_(2)O`, called Mohr's salt is used as a standard COMPOUND in volumetic ANALYSIS for titrations with oxidizing AGENTS such as dichromate, permanganate and citric solutions.
hydrated sodium thiosu,phate `Na_(2)S_(2)O_(3)*5H_(2)O` called 'hypo' is readily solube in water and solutions are used for iodinetitrations in volumetric analysis. Iodine very rapidly oxidizes thiosulphate ions `S_(2)O_(3)^(2-)` to tetrathionate ions `S_(4)O_(6)^(2-)`, and the `I_(2)` is reduced to `I_(-)` ions.

Write the mechanism of reaction of ethers with hydrogen halides.

Answer»

Solution :`to` The reaction of ether with HI STARTS with the protonation of ether molecule.
Step-1 :

`to` The reaction takes place with HBr or HI because these reagents are sufficiently acidic.
Step-2:
`to` Iodide is a good nucleophile. It attacks the least substituted carbon of the oxonium ion formed in step-1 and displaces an alcohol molecule by `S_(N)2` mechanism. Thus in the cleavage of mixed ethers with two different alkyl groups, the alcohol and alkyl iodide formed, depend on the nature of alkyl groups. When PRIMARY or SECONDARY alkyl groups are present, it is lower alkyl group that FORMS alkyl iodide (`S_(N)2` reaction).

`to` When HI is in excess and the reaction is carried out at high temperature, ethanol reacts with another molecule of HI and is CONVERTED to ethyl iodide.
Step-3 :
