The scattering of light by colloidal particles is known as the Tyndall effect.
3. The maximum oxidation state shown by actinoids is +7.
OR
The transition element which does not exhibit variation in the oxidation state in its
compounds is zinc (Zn).
4. 2, 4, 6-Trinitrophenol is more acidic than phenol because of the electron-withdrawing
or –I effect of three groups. Thus, it gives a salt with Na2CO3 which is a weak base.
So, this makes 2, 4, 6-trinitrophenol soluble in aqueous Na2CO3.
5. Elastomers are polymers in which polymer chains are held together by weak
intermolecular forces and hence are stretchable. Fibres are polymers with strong
intermolecular forces like hydrogen bonding and hence possess high tensile strength.
Section B
6. Henry’s law states that solubility of a gas in a liquid at a given temperature is directly
proportional to the pressure of a gas. If we use mole fraction of a gas in the solution as a
measure of its solubility, then it can be said that the mole fraction of a gas in the
solution is proportional to the partial pressure of the gas over the solution.
