The government had a peoposal fo estabilshing a thermal power plant where coal would be the source of power .A panel has been sent to the site to examine the fersibility of the proposal .The farmers in thet area panicky that their soils may become less fertile and may even become unfit for cultivation. However, the panel members convinced them by giving an assurance that the best quality coal will be used in the plant to minizise the effect. Can you explain the reason why burning of coal makes the soil loses fertility and how quality of coal has a bearing on the above? What other effects does burning of coal have on the enviroment ?

Answer»

Solution :Coal is formed from various ORGANIC compounds. In coal along with carbon, nitrogen and sulphur are also present in varying amounts. When the coal is burnt the N and S form corresponding oxides Which escape into the atmosphere. These oxides com bine with WATER forming their corresponding ACIDS namely `HNO_3` and `H_2SO_4`. These acids reach earth as acid rain. As a result, the acidity of soil increases. Anthracite coal is the BEST type of coal as it contains least percentage of'S'and'N'and minimises the effect of acidity of soil to the maximum extent

The given graph shows the heating curve for a pure substance. The temperature rises with time as the substance is heated : (a) What is the physical state of the substance at the points A, B, C and D ? What is the melting point of the substance ? (c ) What is its boiling point ? (d) What happens to the temperature while the substance is changing state ? (e ) The substance is not water. How can you judge from the graph ?

Answer»

Solution :(a) At point A : The substance is in the solid state.
At point B : The substance has started melting. It exists both in the solid and liquid states.
At point C : The substance is in the liquid state.
A point D : The substance has started boiling. It exists both in the liquid and gaseous states.
(b) the melting point of the substance is `15^(@)C`.
(c ) The boilingpoint of the substance is `110^(@)C`.
(d) The TEMPERATURE REMAINS the same during the change of state.
(e ) Had substance been water, its melting point should have been `0^(@)C` and boiling point `100^(@)C`. It is therefore, not water.

The give mixture contains three constituents A, B and C. The constituent A is a yellow coloured, solid element which dissolves in a liqued E. The constitudent C is a liquid which is used in cooking food and froms a solid fat on hydrogenation. (a) What do you thing could (i) constituent A, and (ii) liquid D be ? (b) What could (i) constituent B, and (ii) liquid E be (c) What could liquid C be ? (d) How will you secarate the mixture containing A, B and C ?

Answer»


Answer :(a) (i) Sulphur (ii) Carbon disulphide (B) (i) Copper sulphate (ii) Water (c ) Vegatable oil (d) FILTER the mixture of A, B and C. C (oil) being liquid will be obtained as a filtrate. RESIDUE consists of A (aulphur) and B (copper sulphate). ADD water, shake and filter. A (sulphur) is obtained as residue. Evaporter filtrate to obtain B (copper sulphate).

The decomposition of NO is studies by monitoring the concentration. Initially the concentration of NO is 2.33 moles/L and after 184 min it is reduced to 2.02 moles/L. The reaction takes place according to the equation 2NO to N_(2)+O_(2). Calculate the rate of production of N_(2).

Answer»

Solution :`2NO implies N_(2)+O_(2)`
Rate of DECOMPOSITION of NO `=(DELTA[NO])/(Delta t)=([2.33-2.02])/(184xx60)`
`=2.8xx10^(-5) "mole"//L//s`
Rate of PRODUCTION of `N_(2)=(1)/(2)xx ` rate of decomposition of NO
`therefore` Rate of production of `N_(2)=(2.8xx10^(-5))/(2)=1.4xx10^(-5) " mole" //L//s`.

The critical temperatures of CO_2 gas and N_2 gas are 31^(@)C and -147^(@) C, respectively. Which gas is liquefied easily and why ?

Answer»

Solution :Since the criticl temperature of `CO_2` is HIGH, the intermolecular forces of attraction among `CO_2`MOLECULES are more when COMPARED to `N_2`. Hence, `CO_2` will liquefy easily.
871.

The critical temperature of gases A, B, C and D are -118^(@)C, -240^(@)C, 132^(@)C and 20^(@)C, respectively. Arrange them in the decreasing order of intermolecular force of attraction.

Answer»

Solution :The higher the critical TEMPERATURE the more is the intermolecular force of ATTRACTION and they can be liquefied easily. Decreasing order of intermolecular force of attraction is `C GT D gt A gt B`.
