Graphite is a soft solid lubricant extremely difficult to melt. The reason for this anomalous behaviour is that graphite
In graphite, carbon is sp2 hybridized. Each carbon is thus linked to three other carbon atoms forming hexagonal rings. Since only three electrons of each carbon are used in making hexagonal ring, fourth electron of each carbon is free to move. This makes graphite a good conductors of heat and electricity.
Further graphite has a two dimensional sheet like structure. These various sheets are held together by weak van der Waal’s force of attraction. due to these weak forces of attraction, one layer can slip over the other. This makes graphite soft and a good lubricating agent.

Excess of KI reacts with CuSO4 solution and then Na2S2O3 solution is added to it. Which of the statements is incorrect for this reaction ?
The number of hydrogen atom(s) attached to phosphorus atom in hypophosphorous acid is
Hypophosphorous acid
The correct order of the thermal stability of hydrogen halides (H – X) is
The H–X bond strength decreases from HF to HI. i.e.
HF > HCl > HBr > HI. Thus HF is most stable while HI is least stable. This is evident from their decomposition reaction: HF and HCl are stable upto 1473K, HBr decreases slightly and HI dissociates considerably at 713K. The decreasing stability of the hydrogen halide is also reflected in the values of dissociation energy of the H–X bond
Heating an aqueous solution of alumin ium chloride to dryness will give
The solution of aluminium chloride in water is acidic due to hydrolysis.
AlCl3 + 3H2O –––––→ Al(OH)3 + 3HCl.
On heating it till dryness Al(OH)3 is converted into Al2O3
In silicon dioxide

The structure of diborane (B2H6) contains
In diborane structure B2H6 there are two 2c-2e bonds and two 3c–2e bonds (see structure of diborane).
Structure of B2H6 :
Which of the following statements is true?
The is stronger than
The more the oxidation state of N, the more is the acid character.
The increasing order of the first ionization enthalpies of the elements B, P, S and F (Lowest first) is
The correct order of ionisation enthalpies is
F > P > S > B
NOTE : On moving along a period ionization enthalapy increases from left to right and decreases from top to bottom in a group. But this trend breaks up in case of atom having fully or half filled stable orbitals.
In this case P has a stable half filled electronic configuration hence its ionisation enthalapy is greater in comparision to S. Hence the correct order is
B < S < P < F.

Boric acid is a lewis acid so (a) is
incorrect statement.
The coordination number exhibited by beryllium is 4 and not 6 so statement (b) is incorrect.
Both BeCl2 and AlCl3 exhibit bridged structures in solid state so (c) is correct statement.

The products of the concerned reaction react each other forming back the reactants.
XeF6 + 3H2O → XeO3+ 6HF .
Which of the following statement is wrong?
The ease of for mation an d stability of hydrides decreases rapidly from NH3 to BiH3. This is evident from their dissociation temperature which decreases from NH3 to BiH3. As we go down the group the size of central atom increases and thus metal-hydrogen bond becomes weaker due to decreased overlap between the large central atom and small hydrogen atom.
Which of the following statements regarding sulphur is incorrect?
Oxidation of sulphur varies from – 2 to + 6 in its various compounds
Boron cannot form which one of the following anions?
Boron cannot form BF63– due to non-availability of d-orbitals.
The molecule having smallest bond angle is :
All the members form volatile halides of the type AX3. All halides are pyramidal in shape. The bond angle decreases on moving down the group due to decrease in bond pair-bond pair repulsion.
Among the following oxoacids, the correct decreasing order of acid strength is:
Acidic strength increases as the oxidation number of central atom increases.
Hence acidic strength order is
(+7) (+5) (+3) (+1)

Which among the following is the most reactive ?
ICl
Order of reactivity of halogens
Cl2 > Br2> I2
But, the interhalogen compounds are generally more reactive than halogens (except F2), since the bond between two dissimilar electronegative elements is weaker than the bond between two similar atoms i.e, X – X
Assertion: Nitrogen and oxygen are the main components in the atmosphere but these do not react to form oxides of nitrogen.
Reason: The reaction between nitrogen and oxygen requires high temperature.
Nitrogen and oxgen in air do not react to form oxides of nitrogen in atmosphere because the reaction between nitrogen and oxygen requires high temperature.
Which one has the highest boiling point ?
Xe. As we move down the group, the melting and boiling points show a regular increase due to corresponding increase in the magnitude of their van der waal forces of attraction as the size of the atom increases.
