Two large circular discs separated by a distance of 0.01 m are connected to a battery via a switch as shown in the figure. Charged oil drops of density 900 kg m−3 are released through a tiny hole at the center of the top disc. Once some oil drops achieve terminal velocity, the switch is closed to apply a voltage of 200 V across the discs.

A thermally isolated cylindrical closed vessel of height 8 m is kept vertically. It is divided into two equal parts by a diathermic (perfect thermal conductor) frictionless partition of mass 8.3 kg. Thus the partition is held initially at a distance of 4 m from the top, as shown in the schematic figure below. Each of the two parts of the vessel contains 0.1 mole of an ideal gas at temperature 300 K. The partition is now released and moves without any gas leaking from one part of the vessel to the other. When equilibrium is reached, the distance of the partition from the top (in m) will be _______ (take the acceleration due to gravity = 10 ms−2 and the universal gas constant = 8.3 J mol−1K−1).

JEE Advance 2020 with Solution: Paper - 2 - Question 19

The 1st , 2nd and the 3rd ionization enthalpies I1, I2 and I3, of four atoms with atomic numbers n, n+1, n+2 and n+3 , where n < 10, are tabulated below. What is the value of n?


Detailed Solution: Question 19


By observing the values of I1, I2 & I3 for atomic number (n+2), it is observed that I2 >>I1. This indicates that number of valence shell electrons is 1 and atomic number (n+2) should be an alkali metal.
Also for atomic number (n+3), I3 >> I2.
This indicates that it will be an alkaline earth metal which suggests that atomic number (n+1) should be a noble gas & atomic number (n) should belong to Halogen family. Since n < 10; hence n = 9 (F atom)
Note : n = 1 (H atom) cannot be the answer because it does not have I2 & I3 values.

JEE Advance 2020 with Solution: Paper - 2 - Question 28

Choose the correct statements among the following.

Detailed Solution: Question 28

(A) SnCl2.2H2O is a reducing agent since Sn2+ tends to convert into Sn4+.

(C) First group cations (Pb2+) form insoluble chloride with HCl that is PbCl2 however it is slightly soluble in water and therefore lead +2 ion is never completely precipitated on adding hydrochloric acid in test sample of Pb2+, rest of the Pb2+ ions are quantitatively precipitated with H2S in acidic medium.
So that we can say that filtrate of first group contain solution of PbCl2 in HCl which contains Pb2+ and Cl
However in the presence of conc. HCl or excess HCl it can produce H2[PbCl4]
So, we can conclude A, B or A,B,C should be answers.

pKb different between I and II is 0.53 and that of III and IV is 4.6.
So option (B) is incorrect Correct Statement (C), (D)
The most basic compound in the given option is (II) and least basic compound is (III) In 2,4,6-trinitro aniline (III) due to strong –R effect of –NO2 groups, the ℓ.p. of -NH2 is more involved with benzene ring hence it has least basic strength.
Whereas (IV) N,N-Dimethyl 2,4,6-trinitro aniline, due to steric inhibition to resonance (SIR) effect; the lone pair of nitrogen is not in the plane of benzene, hence make it (ℓ.p.) more free to protonate
