The overlapping of orbitals in benzene is of the type

Answer»

`SP^(2)-sp^(2)`
`sp^(3)-sp^(3)`
`sp-sp`
p-p

Solution :According to molecular orbital THEORY of BENEZENE , each carbon atom is `sp^(2)` hybridized with a bond angle of `120^(@)` . There are six `2p_(z)` atomic orbitals (one oneach carbon atom) which are parallel to each other but are perpendicular to the plane of the ring and PROJECT above and below the plane

Each `p_(z)` orbital interacts equally with its two neighbours procucing a circular double - doughnut shaped molecular orbital embracing all six carbon atoms and thus six `pi` - electrons are delocalized.

Answer»

SOLUTION :`CO^(+2) +6CN^(-) Leftrightarrow [Co(CN)_(6)]^(-4)`
`K_(1)=([Co(CN)_(6)]^(-4))/([Co^(+2)][CN^(-)]^(6))`
And `Co^(+#) +6CN^(-) Leftrightarrow [Co(CN)_(6)]^(-3)`
`K_(2)=([Co(CN)_(6)]^(-3))/([Co^(+3)] [CN^(-6)]^(6))`
`K_(2)/K_(1) =([Co(CN)_(6)]^(-3) [Co^(+2)])/([Co(CN)_(6)]^(-4) [Co^(+3)])`
`[Co(CN)_(6)]^(-4) to [Co(CN)_(6)]^(-3)+e^(-)""E^(@)=-0.83V`

The overall equation for the reaction between sodium carbonate solution and dilute hydrochloric acid is Na_(2)CO_(3)(aq.)+2HCl(aq.)rarrNaCl(aq)+CO_(2)(g)H_(2)O(l) If you had the two solutions of the same concentration, you would have to use double volume of HCl to reach the equivalence point. Indicators change their colours at the end point of the reaction and hence we are able to know the end points (equivalence points of reactions). 25 ml of Na_(2)CO_(3) solution requires 100 ml of 0.1 M HCl to reach end point with phenolphthaleinindicator. Molarity of HCO_(3^(-)) ions in the resulting solution is

Answer»

0.008 M
0.04M
0.16 M
0.08M

Solution :In presence of phenophthalein indicator valence factor of HPH = 1
EQUIVALENTS of HCl = Equivalent of `Na_(2)CO_(3)`
`N_(1)V_(1)=N_(2)V_(2)`
For HCl `N_(1)=M_(1) ` and `Na_(2)CO_(3)N_(2)=N_(2)M_(1)V_(1)=M_(2)V_(2)`
`0.1 xx 100 = N_(2)xx25`
`M_(2)=0.4`
Reaction is `Na_(2)CO_(3) +HCl rarrNaHCO_(3)+NaCl`
in moles of `Na_(2)CO_(3)=MV`
`0.4 018xx25xx10^(-3)`
=moles of `NaCHO_(3)`
molarity of `HCO_(3)^(-)=("Moles of " NaHCO_(3))/("Volume")=(0.4xx25xx10^(-3)xx1000)/(125)=0.08`

The overall equation for the reaction between sodium carbonate solution and dilute hydrochloric acid is Na_(2)CO_(3)(aq.)+2HCl(aq.)rarrNaCl(aq)+CO_(2)(g)H_(2)O(l) If you had the two solutions of the same concentration, you would have to use double volume of HCl to reach the equivalence point. Indicators change their colours at the end point of the reaction and hence we are able to know the end points (equivalence points of reactions). How many ml of 1N HCl are required for X milimoles of NaOH + Y milimoles of Na_(2)CO_(3)+Z milimoles of NaHCO_(3)with methyl orange indicator

Answer»

(2X+Y+Z)ML
(X+2Y+2Z)ml
(X+2Y+3Z)ml
(X+2y+Z) ml

Solution :EQUIVALENT of HCl = Equivalent of `(NaOH + Na_(2)CO_(3)+NOHCO_(3)]`
`1xxV=[x xx10^(-3)xx1]+[Yxx10^(-3)xx2]+[Zxx10^(-3)xx1]`

The overall formaion constant for the reaction of 6 mole of CN^(-) with cobalt (II) is 1xx10^(19) the standard reduction potential constant of [Co(CN)_(6)]^(3-)+e^(-)toCo(CN)_(6)^(4-) is -0.83V Calcualte the formation constant of [Co(CN)_(6)]^(3-). Given Co^(3+)+e^(-)toCo^(2+),E^(@)=1.82V

Answer»


Solution :ANODE: `[CO(CN)_(6)]^(3-)+E^(-)to[Co(CN)_(6)]^(4-)""E_(SRP)^(0)=-0.83V`
cathode: `Co^(3+)+e^(-)toCO^(2+)""E_(SRP)^(0)=1.82V`
so overall cell reaction is
`Co^(3+)+[Co(CN)_(6)]^(4-)toCO^(2+)+[Co(CN)_(6)]^(3-)`
`E_(cell)^(0)=E_(C)^(0)-E_(a)^(0)=1.82-(-0.83)=2.65V`
`E_(cell)=E_(cell)^(0)-(0.059)/(1)log(([Co^(2+)][Co(CN)_(6)]^(3-))/([Co^(3+)][Co(CN)_(6)]^(4-)))`
Now, `Co^(2+)+6CN^(-)hArr[Co(CN)_(6)]^(4-)""K_(f_(1))=1xx10^(19)`
`Co^(3+)+6CN^(-)hArr[Co(CN)_(6)]^(3-)""K_(f_(2))`
At equilibrium `E_(cell)=0`
`E_(cell)^(0)=(0.059)/(1)log((k_(f_(2)))/(K_(f_(1)))`, solving we get `K_(1)=10^(63.915)`
26447.
