What Is Fajan's rule? Discuss. |
Answer» SOLUTION :As we know, a metal combine with a nonmetal through ionic bond. The compounds so formed are called ionic compounds. A compound is said to be ionic when the charge of the cation and anion are COMPLETELY separated. But in 1923, Kazimierz Fajans found, through his X-Ray Crystallographic studies, that some of the ionic compounds show COVALENT character. Based on this, he formulated a SET rules to predict whether a chemical bond is ionic or covalent. Fajan.s rules are formulated by considering the charge of the cation and the relative size of the cation and anion. . When the size of the cation is small and that of anion is LARGE, the bond is of more covalent character. . Greater the charge of the cation, greater will be the covalent character. |

We can prepare nitrogen dioxide gas by the addition of conc. HNO_(3) to copper turnings. But the NO_(2) gas formed has a tendency to dimerise to dinitrogen tetroxide and the equilibrium 2NO_(2) hArr N_(2)O_(4)+57.2 kJ is established. Two sealed test tubes containing the reaction mixtures of same composition are kept in water bath separately which are at high and low temperatures, respectively. What observations are found in the two baths ? Explain. |
Answer» Solution :`2NO_(2) hArr N_(2)O_(4)+57.2` kJ is an exothermic REACTION. According to Le Chatelier's principle, low temperature favours forward reaction. Backward reaction is endothermic. High temperature favours the backward reaction. A sealed test tube containing the reaction mixture when kept in a HOT water bath favours the backward reaction and equilibrium is shifted towards the left. The product mostly consists of `NO_(2)` which is REDDISH brown in colour. When a sealed test tube containing the same reaction mixture is kept in a water bath of LOWER temperature, the forward reaction is favourable and equilirbium shifts to the right. The product mostly exists in the form of colourless `N_(2)O_(4)`. The test tube in the hot water bath has a dark brown coloured product in it. The test tube kept in the water bath of lower temperature has a lightcoloured product in it. |
