FAQs on JEE Mains Previous Year Questions (2021-2024): Solid State - Chemistry for JEE Main & Advanced

1. What is the basic concept of solid state in JEE?
Ans. In JEE, the solid state refers to the study of crystalline solids, their structures, properties, and behavior. It involves understanding the arrangement of atoms, ions, or molecules in a three-dimensional lattice structure.
2. How are unit cells important in the study of solid state for JEE?
Ans. Unit cells are the building blocks of crystalline solids and play a crucial role in determining the overall properties of the solid. They help in understanding the symmetry, density, and other characteristics of the solid state.
3. What are the different types of defects in solid state as per the JEE syllabus?
Ans. In the context of JEE, the different types of defects in the solid state include point defects (vacancies, interstitials), line defects (dislocations), and surface defects (grain boundaries). These defects can significantly impact the properties of solids.
4. How does band theory of solids explain the electrical conductivity of materials in JEE?
Ans. The band theory of solids in JEE explains the electrical conductivity of materials by describing the energy bands formed by the overlapping atomic orbitals. Conductors have partially filled bands, while insulators have fully occupied bands with a large energy gap.
5. Can you explain the concept of superconductivity in the context of solid state for JEE?
Ans. Superconductivity is a phenomenon where certain materials exhibit zero electrical resistance when cooled below a critical temperature. In the solid state, this behavior is attributed to the formation of Cooper pairs of electrons that move without resistance through the lattice structure.
