Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 3

What forms when boron combines with caustic soda?

Detailed Solution for Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 3

Two moles of boron atoms fuse with 6 moles of sodium hydroxide in order to form 2 moles of sodium borate and three moles of hydrogen molecules. Sodium hydroxide is also known as caustic soda.

Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 4

The metallic character of ______ is less than that of alkaline earth metals.

Detailed Solution for Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 4

The elements of the Boron family are less electropositive than the alkaline earth metals due to their smaller size and higher ionization enthalpies. On moving down the group, the electropositive character first increases from Boron to aluminium and then decreases from gallium so thallium due to the presence of d and f orbitals which causes poor shielding.

Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 5

Which of the following is the correct order for the stability of plus one oxidation State?

Detailed Solution for Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 5

The correct order of the increased stability of + 1 oxidation state in gallium, indium and thallium is that; gallium stability is less than that of indium and indium stability is less than that of thallium.

Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 6

Which of the following is true regarding the thermal stability of halides of Carbon family?

Detailed Solution for Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 6

All the elements of Carbon family give tetrahedral and covalent halides of the type MX4. The thermal stability follows in the decreasing order of CX4 > Si X4 > Ge X4 > Sn X4 > Pb X4 for the elements of group 14.

Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 7

Which of the following is called the bitter of tin?

Detailed Solution for Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 7

The compound Stannous chloride with 5 moles of water is called bitter of tin and it is used as a mordant in dyeing as it gives bright colours. Its chemical formula is given by SnCl2.5H2O and it is a white crystalline solid.

Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 8

The dry ice is _____.

Detailed Solution for Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 8

Carbon dioxide is linear gas at ordinary temperature but at low temperatures, it is in solid form and also known as dry ice or drikold. it is used for storing frozen substances at a lower temperature than normal water and it is used for cooling.

Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 9

How many types of oxides do Carbon family form?

Detailed Solution for Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 9

The Carbon family can form two types of oxides, mono oxides of the type MO like carbon monoxide and silicon monoxide which are all basic, it can also found the oxides of the type MO2 where carbon dioxide and silicon dioxide are acidic and the dioxide of Germanium, silicon and plumber are amphoteric.

Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 10

Which of the following oxidation States to group 14 elements exhibit?

Detailed Solution for Test: Carbon and Boron Family - Question 10

The elements of carbon family exhibit + 2 and + 4 oxidation state. The compounds of plumbum in + 4 oxidation state are powerful oxidizing agents since +2 oxidation state of plumbum is more stable due to inert pair effect.
