Solution:
QUESTION: 5

Do you expect the minimum energy necessary to eject a 3s electron from phosphorus in a photoelectron spectroscopy experiment for the process.

[Ne] 3s23p3 → [Ne] 3s13p3 + e- ,

Be larger than, smaller than, or the same as the 4th io nization energy (IE4) of phosphorus:
Solution:

Due to better guarding of s electrons by p if we directly remove an s electron without removing the p electrons, it would take more energy had we removed all outer electrons before.

Hence A is correct.

QUESTION: 6

Which of the following will be strongest acid in pure liquid HF:
Solution:

Correct Answer :- b

Explanation : Fluoroantimonic acid is the strongest superacid based on the measured value of its Hammett acidity function (H0), which has been determined for different ratios of HF:SbF5. While the H0 of pure HF is −15, addition of just 1 mol % of SbF5 lowers it to around −20.

QUESTION: 7

What is the nature of silicon–oxygen bonds in silica(SiO2): 
Solution:
QUESTION: 8

The melting point of lithium metal is 454 K, and that of sodium is 371 K. Which is the following statements can explain this difference in their melt ing points:

(I) Metallic bonding in lithium is stronger than metallic bonding in sodium.
(II) The delocalized electrons are more strongly attracted to the metal cation of lithium.
(III) The lithium cations have a greater charge density than sodium cation.
(IV) Li+ cations are smaller than Na+ cations.
Solution:
QUESTION: 9

Although both NF3 and NCl3 are covalent, NCl3 undergoes hydrolysis whereas NF3 does not because:
Solution:
QUESTION: 10

The Lewis acidity of BF3 is less than BCl3 even though fluorine is more electronegative than chlorine. It is due to:

QUESTION: 15

For Et2AlX (X = PPh2–, Ph–, Cl– –and H–), the tendency towards dimeric structure fo llows the order:
Solution:
QUESTION: 16

Na2HPO4 and NaH2PO4 on heating at high temperature produce a chain sodium pentaphosphate quantitatively.

Q.

The ideal molar ratio of Na2HPO4 to NaH2PO4 is:
Solution:

2Na2HPo4 + 3NaH2Po4 --->Na7P5o16
 

QUESTION: 17

Na2HPO4 and NaH2PO4 on heating at high temperature produce a chain sodium pentaphosphate quantitatively.

Q. 

The total charge on pentaphosphate anion is:
Solution:

Correct Answer :- a

Explanation : Sodium tripolyphosphate is produced by heating a stoichiometric mixture of disodium phosphate, Na2HPO4, and monosodium phosphate, NaH2PO4, under carefully controlled conditions.

2Na2HPO4 + NaH2PO4 → Na5P3O10 + 2 H2O

STPP is a colourless salt, which exists both in anhydrous form and as the hexahydrate. The anion can be described as the pentanionic chain [O3POP(O)2OPO3]5-
