Q.1) Explain discovery of proton and write its properties.

Answer»

Protons are subatomic particles that, with neutrons and electrons, are the principal constituents of atoms.

Protons are positively charged particles that reside in the nucleus of an atom. These protons add the overall positive charge of a molecule. The mass of the proton is 1.6727g x 10 raised to -24, the electron 9.110g x 10 raised to -28.

Through scientific discovery, protons have been accepted as the particle that contributes to the positive charge of an atom. The discovery of protons can be attributed to Rutherford.

In 1886 Goldstein discovered existence of positively charged rays in the discharge tube by using perforated cathode. These rays were named as anode rays or cannal rays.

In 1899, Rutherford discovered alpha and beta ‘rays’ from uranium. He later demonstrated that alpha rays are the nuclei of helium atoms. He discovered in 1914 that the nucleus of an atom constituted and extremely dense but small fraction of the volume of an atom and that this nucleus was positive in charge.

Given the discoveries of electrons in 1897 by Thomson, Rutherford and other scientists decided that a positively charged particle must exist to center the electron to create equally neutral atoms.

Thompson proposed the name ‘positive rays’. Rutherford, in 1914, suggested that this something that was positively charged or the sportive ray of Thompson was a particle.

He gave the name ‘positive electron’ to it. The word ‘proton’ was assigned to this particle by 1920.

Rutherford continued to do research until his death, but the proton was his last big discovery.

How does the waterearthen got (matka)during summer?Rept inbecomeancool.

Answer»

An earthen pot has a large number of extremely small pores on its wall. Some of the water, continuously keeps seeping through these pores. This water evaporates continuously and absorbs its latent heat, required for vaporization from the earthen pot and the remaining water in the pot. In this way, the remaining water loses heat and gets cooled.

30. X, Y2 and Z are isoclectronic of CO2. Increasingorder of protons in X, Y and Z is(2) X<Y <Z4) Y<X <Z(3) ZX<Y

Answer»

CO2 has --- 6+8+8 electrons = 22 electrons

so, X+ , Y2+ and Z- should also have 22 electrons

=> proton of X = 22+1( +ve charge) = 23=> proton of Y = 22+ 2( +2 ve charge) =24=> proton of z = 22-1 ( -ve charge) =21

so, correct order is Y2+ > X+ > Z-option 3.

8 ) In the electrolysis of alte(a) Name the gas collected at anode and cathode.(b) Why is the volume of gas collected at one electrode double than the other?(c) What would happen if dil. H2SO4, is not added to water?

Answer»

When electric current is passed through water , it decomposes to give hydrogen gas and oxygen gas.

ELECTRICITY2H₂O(I) ---------------------------- > 2H₂(g) + O₂(g)

At cathode :H+ ions will gain electrons and form Hydrogen gas

2H⁺ +2e--->H2 (g)

At anode : Oxygen gas will be released

4 OH⁻(aq)→O2(g) + 2 H2O(l) + 4 e−

II) The volume of hydrogen gas collected at cathode is more than volume of oxygen gas at anode because water is made up of 2 parts of hydrogen and 1 part of oxygen by volume.

iii) If dil.H2SO4 is added to water then the rate of electrolysisincreases.

a) The conductivity of metals decreases while that of electrolytes increases with increase in tenmWhy?byatwhat nH ofHCLsution will Ha gas electrnde show electrode notential of-9.118 V?

Answer»

We know that resistivity = m / (nte^2)

and e are properties of electrons and remain constant.

METALSIn metals, n i.e., the number of electrons in unit volume of the conductor is almost independent of temperature. However, t i.e., the relaxation time does vary with temperature. When temperature increases, the thermal speed of the electrons increases as well as, the amplitude of vibration of the positive ions inside the metal conductor also increase, about their mean positions. Thus, the collisions between the electrons and the positive metal ions become more frequent and this decreases the relaxation time, t, leading to an increase in the resistivity of the conductor.

What are fibers and elastomers?

Answer»

An Elastomer is a polymer with the physical property of elasticity. Elastomer is a term derived from elastic polymer, which is often used interchangeably with the term rubber. Each of the monomers linking to the polymer is usually made of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and/or silicon. Elastomers are usually thermosets requiring a curing process of rubber involving heat and the addition of sulfur or other equivalent curatives. In addition, elastomers might also be thermoplastic.

which alkali metal is the strongest reducing agent

Answer»

Alkali metals are good reducing agents. This is because of their tendency to lose electrons.

In a group from top to bottom reducing nature increases. Since ionization energies decreases on moving dowm from Li to Cs the reducing property increases. Hence, Li is the weakest reducing agent among the alkali metals in free state.

Whereas Li acts as strongest reducing agent in solution.Thus, in solution the reducing nature decreases from Li to Na and then increases to Cs.

Answer»

Contact processStep 1:Preparation of sulphur dioxide:

SO2is prepared by burningsulphurin the presence of excess air so that the product combines with oxygen which is helpful for the next stage.

S(s) + O2(g) → SO2(g)

Step 2:Preparation of sulphur trioxide:

Sulphur trioxide is formed when sulphur dioxide reacts with oxygen in a ratio of 1:1 at a temperature of 400°C – 450°C and a pressure of 1-2 atm in the presence of N2O5as a catalyst. This reaction is reversible in nature.

2SO2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2SO3(g)

Step 3:Preparation of concentrated sulphuric acid:

The sulphur trioxide formed is first made to react with concentrated sulphuric acid. Sulphur trioxide cannot be dissolved in water directly as it leads to the formation of fog. The product obtained after this reaction is known as oleum. The oleum obtained is then dissolved in water to obtain concentrated sulphuric acid.

H2SO4+ SO3(g) → H2S2O7(l)

Latent heat of fusion is the amount of energy required to convert the substance from solid phase to liquid phase at constant temperature. The boiling point of a substance increases. Whereas the freezing point of a substance decreases due to presence of impurity.Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide.It is stored under under high pressure because if the pressure is decreased then it will sublime.
