how we can find hybridization for AsO3^3- |
|
Answer» There are three steps to determining the hybridization of an atom:
firslty find total valence electrons= 5+ 6(3)-(-3)=26.then 26/8, divide remainder by 2, and then add quotient and remainder/2 i.e 3+1= 4 hence the hybridisation is sp3. |

विभिन्न प्रकार के पेड़ पौधों का जड़ों का लक्षण |
|
Answer» पौधे का वह हिस्सा जो भूमि के अंदर छिपा हुआ होता है, जड़ या मूल कहलाता है। जड़ें मिट्टी के कणों को परस्पर बांधे रखती हैं और पौधे को भूमि पर स्थिर रखती हैं । ये पौधे के पोषण के लिए जरूरी खनिज-लवणों को भूमि से अवशोषित करके तनों के माध्यम से पहुंचाती हैं। जड़तंत्र हम देखते हैं कि पौधों की जड़ सिर्फ एक नहीं होती। या तो यह मुख्य जड़ और सहायक छोटी-छोटी जड़ों में बंटी होती है। या फिर एक पौधे से बहुत सी मुख्य जड़े होती है। इन्हीं को सामूहिक रूप से जड़तंत्र कहा जाता है। जड़तंत्र दो प्रकार के होते हैं- -मूसलाधार जड़तंत्र -रेशेदार जड़तंत्र मूसलाधार जड़तंत्र की विशेषता इसमें पौधे के आधार से एक मोटी मुख्य जड़ निकलती हैं। इस मुख्य जड़ से कई छोटी छोटी जड़ें निकलती हैं। फिर इन छोटी-छोटी जड़ों से महीन-महीन ढेरों जड़े निकलती हैं। इस प्रकार की संरचना को मूसलाधार जड़ कहते हैं। उदाहरण के लिए मुली, गाजर, आम, नीम आदि। रेशेदार जड़तंत्र की विशेषता जब पौधे के आधार से या किसी अन्य हिस्से से एक साथ एक जैसे आकार वाली जड़ें निकलती हैं। तो इन्हें रेशेदार जड़तंत्र कहते हैं। जैसे गेहूं, चावल, मक्का, घास आदि की जड़ें रेशेदार होती हैं। |

Features of ore and impurity are given in the table. Write down the method used for the separation of the ore. Ore Impurity Method High density Low density (i) Magnetic Non Magnetic (ii)Low density High density (iii) Dissolved in the solvent didn't dislove (iv)a. How can we convert ore into its oxide form? Explain with proper examplesb. ZnCO3 /Cu2S in these two calcination is used for ………. and Roasting is used for ……….. c. Give Examples for reducing agents for reducing oxide ores. d. Strongest reduction agent e. Which reducing agent used fur reducing ZnO, Fe2O3 , Al2O3 ? |
|
Answer» i. Levigation/Hydraulic washing ii. Magnetic Separation iii. Froth Floatation iv. Leaching a. Calcination Calcination is the process of heating the concentrated ore at a temperature below its melting point to remove the volatile impurities. When subjected to calcination, impurities like water, organic matter, and other volatile impurities are expelled from the ore. Metal Carbonate and hydroxides decompose to form oxides, eg: ZnCO is converted to ZnO by calcination Roasting: Roasting is the process of heating the concentrated ore at a temperature below its melting point in a current of air. During roasting the ore gets converted into its oxide. When the concentrated ore is subjected to roasting, the water present in it is removed as vapor. Other impurities like sulfur, phosphorus and organic matter are oxidized and expelled. The sulfide combines with oxygen to form oxide eg: Cu2S ore is converted to Cu2O by roasting; b. Calcination – ZnCO3 , Roasting – Cu2S c. Carbon monoxide, Carbon, Electricity d. Electricity e. Carbon Monoxide is used as the reducing agent to extract iron from haematite. (Fe2O3) ZnO :- Carbon is used as the reducing agent to extract Zinc from Zinc Oxide. Electricity is used to extract aluminum from Al2O3 |

Write Bohr's Model of Hydrogen atom and its limitations. |
|
Answer» Bohr's Model of Hydrogen Atom : (1) Electrons in an atom occupy stationary orbits of fixed energy at different distances from the nucleus. (2) When an electron jumps from a lower energy state to a higher energy state it absorbs energy or emits energy when such a jump occur from a higher energy state to a lower energy state. (3) The energies of an electron in an atom can have only certain values. E1, E2, E3 ...that is the energy is quantized.The states corresponding to these energies are called stationary states and the possible values of the energy are called energy levels. Limitations : Bohr's model failed to account for splitting of line spectra. |
