| 2603. | Beso4 is soluble but BeO is almost insoluble in water. explain | 
| Answer» BeO is covalent in nature due to its smaller size, also has high ionisation enthalpy and high electronegativity therefore it is insoluble in water. On the other hand, BeSO4 is ionic. Also because of small size of Be2+ ion, the hydration enthalpy of BeSO4 is much higher than its lattice enthalpy. | |
| 2604. | MgSO, is highly soluble in water but BeSo, is almost insoluble why? | 
| Answer» Note:-BaSO₄ It is! Whereas, for BaSO4 it is not enough that's why it is notsoluble in water. MgSO4 issoluble in water butBaSO4 is not becuase the size of BaandSO4 ions isverylarge which leads to higher lattice enthalpy than that of hydration enthalpy. Therefore, BaSO4 isinsoluble in water. | |

| 2619. | 2.Co-ood inate covalent bond3 | 
| Answer» A coordinate bond (also called a dative covalent bond) is a covalent bond (a shared pair of electrons) in which both electrons come from the same atom. In the formation of a simple covalent bond, each atom supplies one electron to the bond - but that does not have to be the case. The molecule is exactly same, structure wise. Coordinate bond is essentially a type of covalent bond. One way to figure out if a molecule has a coordinate bond is to make a Lewis Dot Structure and then check whether or not a normal covalent bond can be formed. If not, the molecule is likely to have a coordinate bond. | |

| 2624. | what are the rules to write ionic compounds ? | 
| Answer» Although ionic compounds are composed of both positively and negatively charged ions, the overall compound and its formula are electrically neutral. In other words: total positive charge (from cation) = total negative charge (from anion) Forgetting to follow this rule is one of the most common mistakes that students make when writing formulas for ionic compounds. The empirical formula for an ionic compound indicates the smallest whole number ratio of cations and anions needed to produce an electrically neutral compound. The empirical formula is written with the cation first followed by the anion. To write the empirical formula for an ionic compound: Identify the cation. Cation is written first in the name of the compound. Write the correct formula and charge for the cation. Identify the anion. Anion is written last in the name of the compound. Write the correct formula and charge for the anion. Combine the cation and anion to produce anelectrically neutral compound. If the charges on the cation and anion are equal in magnitude (i.e. +1/-1, +2/-2, +3/-3), combine the cation and anion in a 1:1 ratio. If the charges on the cation and anion are NOT equal in magnitude, use the charge on the cation as the subscript for the anion. Use the charge on the anion (omitting the negative sign) as the subscript for the cation. Place parentheses around a polyatomic ion if you need more than one of them in the final formula. Do not show the charges of the ions when you write the final formula for the compound. Make sure that the subscripts for the cation and anion are the smallest whole number ratio. | |

| 2628. | Why do ionic compounds have high melting points? | 
| Answer» | |
| 2629. | Describe properties of Ionic compounds. | 
| Answer» Properties of Ionic Compounds Ionic Compounds have high boiling and melting points as they’re very strong and require a lot of energy to break. Theelectrostaticforces of attraction between oppositely charged ions lead to the formation of ions. Ionic compounds form crystals. These compounds are brittle and break into small pieces easily. Electrovalent compounds usually dissolve in water and are insoluble in solvents like oil, petrol, kerosene, etc. Ionic compounds do not conduct electricity in a solid state but they do conduct electricity in the molten state. In comparison to molecular compounds, ionic compounds have higher enthalpies of fusion and vaporization. | |

| 2644. | What is meant by(0) Displacement reaction [l) Reduction reaction(il) Combination re | 
| Answer» A single-displacement reaction, also known as a single-replacement reaction, is a reaction by which one element replaces an/other element in a compound. It can be represented generically as: A + B-C → A-C + B This will most often occur if A is more reactive than B, thus giving a more stable product. Reductionischemical reactionthat involves the gaining of electrons by one of the atoms involved in thereaction. The term refers to the element that accepts electrons, as the oxidation state of the element that gains electrons is lowered. ... In that example, the iron is oxidized and the oxygen isreduced. Acombination reaction(also known as a synthesisreaction) is areactionwhere two or more elements or compounds (reactants) combine to form a single compound (product). Suchreactionsmay be represented by equations of the following form: X + Y → XY. | |

| 2646. | 46. For a spontaneous process the entropy: II(a) increases(c) unchanged(b) decreases(d) not clear | 
| Answer» theentropyof the surroundingsincreases. The second law of thermodynamics states that the totalentropyof the universe alwaysincreasesfor aspontaneous process. | |
| 2647. | b] What is entropy? | 
| Answer» Thesecond law of thermodynamicsstates that the entropy of an isolated system never decreases. Such systems spontaneously evolve towardsthermodynamic equilibrium, the state with maximum entropy. Non-isolated systems may lose entropy, provided their environment's entropy increases by at least that amount so that the total entropy increases. Entropy is a function of thestate of the system, so the change in entropy of a system is determined by its initial and final states. In the idealization that a process isreversible, the entropy does not change, while irreversible processes always increase the total entropy. | |
| 2648. | What percentage of Fe+3 is present in Feo.0.93 | 
| Answer» In pure iron oxide (FeO), iron and oxygen are present in the ratio 1 : 1. However, here number of Fe2+present = 0.93 Or No. of Fe2+ions missing = 0.07 Since each Fe2+ion has 2 positive charge, the total number of charge due to missing (0.07) Fe2+ions = 0.07 * 2 = 0.14 To maintain electrical neutrality, 0.14 positive charge is compensated by the presence of Fe3+ions. Now since, replacement of one Fe2+ion by one Fe3+ion increases one positive charge, 0.14 positive charge must be compensated by the presence of 0.14 Fe3+ions. In short, 0.93 Fe2+ions have 0.14 Fe3+ions 100 Fe2+ions have = 0.14/0.93 * 100 =15.05% | |
| 2649. | Why photosynthesis is considered as endothermic reaction?CILfiI | 
| Answer» Photosynthesis is considered an endothermic reaction because in this process light energy from sunlight is absorbed to produce oxygen and glucose from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of chlorophyll. | |
| 2650. | 30. Explain redox reactions on the basis of electron transfer. Give suitable example | 
| Answer» Ans :- In the course of a chemical reaction between a metal and a nonmetal, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the nonmetal atoms. For example, when zinc metal is mixed with sulfur and heated, the compound zinc sulfide is produced. Two valence electrons from each zinc atom are transferred to each sulfur atom. Since the zinc is losing electrons in the reaction, it is being oxidized. The sulfur is gaining electrons and is thus being reduced. Anoxidation-reduction reactionis a reaction that involves the full or partial transfer of electrons from one reactant to another.Oxidationis the full or partial loss of electrons or the gain of oxygen. Reductionis the full or partial gain of electrons or the loss of oxygen. Aredox reactionis another term for an oxidation-reduction reaction. | |
