Draw a diagram of Thomson's model of an atom. Why was it discarded ? |
Answer» SOLUTION : The REASONS for discarding Thomson.s model: (1) The arrangement of POSITIVE and negative charges as showm in the model was not possible because the opposite charges would attract each other and the atom as a whole would bc clectrically neutral. (2) The arrangement shown in the model could not explain chemical PROPERTIES of different ELEMENTS. |

Draw a comparison between the potential energy and kinetic energy of electrons in the 1^st orbits of hydrogen and He^+ ion. Also comment on the total energy of the electrons in the above cases. |
| Answer» SOLUTION :The electrons revolve round the nucleus with HIGH velocities to counter balance the nuclear force of attraction. As nuclear force of attraction in the `1^(st)` of `He^+` is more than that in H atom. Kinetic energy of electron in `He^(+)` is more (due to greater velocity ) than in H atom. When an electron approaches towards an atom, it LOSES potential works towards the force of attraction. The greater the force of attraction, the more is the loss of potential energy. Hence, the electron in `He^+` has LESSER potential energy than the electron in H atom. But the loss of PE is more SIGNIFICANT than the change in KE. Hence, total energy of helium is less that of hydrogen. | |

A sample of water under supply was found to boil at 102^(@)C at normal temperature and pressure. It the water pure ? Will this water freeze at 0^(@)C ? Comment. |
| Answer» Solution :Under NORMAL temperature and pressure, the boilingpoint temperature of pure water is `100^(@)C`. The boiling point of `102^(@)C` MEANS that the given sample is IMPURE and has non-volatile impurities present. This impure sample will have FREEZING point temperature below `0^(@)C`. Please remember that the presence of impurities raises the boiling point temperature of a liquid and lowers its freezing point. | |
| 2216. |
A sample of water labelled A boils at 100^(@)C. A sample of water labelled B boils at 102^(@)C. Which sample of water will not freeze at 0^(@)C ? Why ? |
|
Answer» Solution :The sample of water LABELLED B will not FREEZE at `0^(@)C`. The boiling point of pure water at 1 ATM is `100^(@)C`. The sample of water labelled B BOILS at `102^(@)C`. It means the water contains IMPURITIES. |

A practical examination was being conducted for the students. The examiner, in the viva asked Julie the question 'Two salts X and Y are given to you. Salt 'X' is obtained by treating potassium with oxyacid of a non- metal with suffix 'ic' which has seven electrons in the 'M' shell which is the valence shell. Salt 'Y' is formed between lead and oxyacid of a non-metal with five electrons in its valence 'L' shell. Both the salts can give oxygen on thermal decomposition. Which salt do you prefer for the preparation of pure oxygen and why ? When she answered the question correctly, examiner was very much impressed and awarded her full marks. What was the answer that Julie gave ? |
| Answer» Solution :Non-metal with seven electrons in its valence shell (M shell) is chloride. The salt which gives oxygen on thermal decomposition should be an alkali metal chlorate. Non -metal with 5 electrons in its valence shell (L shell) should be nitrogen and the salt which can give oxygen on decomposition should be nitrate.Alkali metal chlorate gives only pure oxygen GAS, whereas bivalent ,i.e., LEAD metal nitrate gives amixture of oxygen and `NO_2` . SINCE it is difficult to separate `O_2` form this MIXTURE. the first one is a preferred method to get pure `O_2` gas. | |

A physical science teacher said that workd is directly proportional to force and dispalcement .One of the student whoattended the time it foundation couse said that work done in removing an electron form a action is directly proportional to the charge on it the teacher appriected the student and explained the above concept what was her explantion ? |
| Answer» Solution :As the positive charge increase the EFFECTIVE nuclear charge on the OUTERMOST electron INCREASES so work DONE for removing an electron increases with the increaseso work done for removing an electron increases with the increase of charge on the cation | |

Divide the class into two groups. Give 5 g of iron filings and 3 g of sulphur powder in a china dish to both the groups. Group I Mix and crush iron filings and sulphur powder. Group II Mix and crush iron filings and sulphur powder. Heat this mixture strongly till red hot. Remove from flame and let the mixture cool. Groups I and II Check for magnetism in the material obtained. Bring a magnet near the material and check if the material is attracted towards the magnet. Compare the texture and colour of the material obtained by the groups. Add carbon disulphide to one part of the material obtained. Stir well and filter. Add dilute sulphuric acid or dilute hydrochloric acid to the other part of the material obtained. Perform all the above steps with both the elements (iron and sulphur) separately. On adding dilute sulphuric acid or dilute hydrochloric acid, did both the groups obtain a gas? Did the gas in both the cases smell the same or different ? |
|
Answer» Solution :Both the groups OBTAINED a gas. The SMELL of gas in both the cases is different. The gas obtained in CASE of Group I is colourless and ODOURLESS. (This is hydrogen gas.) The gas obtained in case of Group II is colourless with smell of ROTTEN eggs. (This is hydrogen sulphide gas.) |
