The Avogadro constant is the proportionality factor that relates the number of constituent particles in a sample with the amount of substance in that sample. Its SI unit is the reciprocal mole, and it is defined as NA = 6.022 mol−1. It is named after the Italian scientist Amedeo Avogadro. Although this is called Avogadro's constant, he is not the chemist who determined its value. Stanislao Cannizzarro explained this number four years after Avogadro.

Question 25.
The balanced equation for a reaction is given below 2x + 3y → 41 + m
When 8 moles of x react with 15 moles of y, then

1. Which is the limiting reagent?
2. Calculate the amount of products formed.
3. Calculate the amount of excess reactant left at the end of the reaction.

Answer:
2x + 3y → 41 + m
1. 2x reacts with 3y to give products.
8x reacts with 15y means, y is the excess because 8 moles of x should react with 4 × 3y = 12y moles of y to give products.
In this reaction 15y moles are used.
Therefore, 3 moles of y is excess and x is the limiting agent.

2. When 8 moles of x react with 12 moles of y, the product formed will be 4 × 41 i.e. 161 and 4m as product.
8x+ 12y → 161 + 4m

3. At the end of the reaction, the excess reactant left is 3 moles of y.

Question 28.
List the characteristics of entropy?
Characteristics of entropy:
Answer:

• Entropy is a thermodynamic state function that is a measure of the randomness or disorderliness of the system.
• In general, the entropy of gaseous system is greater than liquids and greater than solids. The symbol of entropy is S.
• Entropy is defined as “for a reversible change taking place at a constant temperature (T), the change in entropy (∆S) of the system is equal to heat energy absorbed or evolved (q) by the system divided by the constant temperature (T).
  (Delta S_{mathrm{sys}}=frac{q_{mathrm{rev}}}{T})
• If heat is absorbed, then ∆S is positive and there will be increase in entropy. If heat is evolved, ∆S is negative and there is a decrease in entropy,
• The change in entropy of a process represented by ∆S and is given by the equation,
  ∆S_sys = S_f – S_i
• If S_f > S_i, ∆S is positive, the reaction is spontaneous and reversible.
  If S_f < S_i, ∆S is negative, the reaction is non-spontaneous and irreversible.
• Unit of entropy: SI unit of entropy is J K^-1.

Question 29.
Derive the values of K_C and K_P for the synthesis of HI.

1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d⁵ for Fe³⁺ ion.
So, it contain 5 unpaired electrons.
Mn (Z = 25) Electronic configuration is
1s² 2s² 2p⁵ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d⁵
Mn → Mn²⁺ + 2e^–
Number of unpaired electrons in Mn²⁺ = 5
Ar (Z = 18). Electronic configuration is
1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶.
All orbitals are completely filled. So, no unpaired electrons in it.

(II) Significance of de Broglie equation:

1. λ = (frac{h}{mv}) This equation implies that a moving particle can be considered as a wave and a wave can exhibit the properties of a particle.
2. For a particle with high linear momentum (mv) the wavelength will be so small and cannot be observed.
3. For a microscopic particle such as an electron, the mass is of the order of 10^-31 kg, hence the wavelength is much larger than the size of atom and it becomes significant.
4. For the electron, the de Broglie wavelength is significant and measurable while for the iron ball it is too small to measure, hence it becomes insignificant.

Question 35 (a).
(I) Mention any two anomalous properties of second period elements?
(II) Arrange Na⁺, Mg²⁺ and Al³⁺ in the increasing order of ionic radii. Give reason?

[OR]

(b)
(I) How do you expect the metallic hydrides to be useful for hydrogen storage?
(II) Write a note about ortho water and para water?
Answer:
(a) (I) Anomalous properties of second period elements:

1. In the 1^st group, lithium forms compounds with more covalent character while the other elements of this group form only ionic compounds.
2. In the 2^nd group, beryllium forms compounds with more covalent character while the other elements of this family form only ionic compounds.

(II) Na⁺, Mg²⁺ and Al³⁺ are isoelectronic cations.

The cation with the greater positive charge will have a smaller radius because of the greater attraction of the electrons to the nucleus. Hence the increasing order of ionic radii is, (mathbf{r}_{mathrm{Na}^{+}}), > (mathbf{r}_{mathrm{Mg}^{2+}}), > (mathbf{r}_{mathrm{Al}^{3+}}).

[OR]

(b)
(I) In metallic hydrides, hydrogen is adsorbed as H-atoms. Due to the adsorption of H atoms the metal lattice expands and become unstable. Thus, when metallic hydride is heated, it decomposes to form hydrogen and finely divided metal. The hydrogen evolved can be used as fuel.

(II)
1. Water exists in space in the interstellar clouds, in proto-planetary disks, in the comets and icy satellites on the solar system, and on the Earth.

3. At the temperature conditions of the Earth (300 K), the OPR of H₂O is 3.
4. At low temperatures below (< 50 K) the amount of para – H₂O increases. It is known that the OPR of water in interstellar clouds and comets has more para – H₂O (OPR = 2.5) than on Earth.

Question 36 (a).

[OR]

(b) Derive the values of K_p and K_C for dissociation of PCl₅?
Answer:
(a) Derivation of critical constants from the Van der Waals constants:
Van der Waals equation is,
(left(P+frac{a n^{2}}{V^{2}}right)) (V – nb) = nRT for 1 mole.
From this equation, the values of critical constant P_C, V_C and T_C are derived in terms of a and b the Vander Waals constants.

The above equation (4) is an cubic equation of V, which can have three roots. At the critical point, all the three values of V are equal to the critical volume Vc. i.e. V = V_C„
i.e; V = V_C
V – V_C = 0 ………………… (5)
(V – V_C)³ ………………….. (6)
(V³ – 3V_CV²) + 3V_C²V – V_C³ …………………. (7)
As the equation (4) is identical with equation (7), comparing the ‘V’ terms in (4) and (7),

Divide equation (11) by (10)

When equation (12) is substituted in (10)

Substituting the values of V_C and P_C in equation (9)

Critical constants a and b can be calculated rising Vander Waals constants as follows:

(b) Consider that V moles of PCl₅is taken in container of volume‘V’
Let x moles of PCl₅ be dissociated into x moles of PCl₃ and x moles of Cl₂.

Applying law of mass action

K_p caluculation: K_p = K_C. (mathrm{RT}^{mathrm{An}}); ∆n_g = 2 – 1 = 1
We know that PV = nRT
RT = (frac{PV}{n})
Where ‘n’ is the total number of moles at equilibrium
n = a – x + x + x = a + x

(II) Complete the following reactions and identify the products?
(a)
(b)
Answer:
(a) (I) When the temperature is increased,the average kinetic energy of the molecules of the solute and the solvent increases. The increase in the kinetic energy facilitates the solvent molecules to break the intermolecular attractive forces that keep the solute molecules together and hence the solubility increases.
(II)

1. Let us consider the positive deviation shown by a solution of ethyl alcohol and water
2. In this solution, the hydrogen bonding interaction between ethanol and water is weaker than those hydrogen bonding interactions amongst themselves (ethyl alcohol-ethyl alco¬hol and water-water interaction).
3. This results in the increased evaporation of both components from the aqueous solution of ethanol.
4. Consequently, the vapour pressure of the solution is greater than the vapour pressure
   predicted by Raoult’s law.
5. Here, the mixing process is endothermic i.e., DHmixing > 0 and there will be a slight increase in volume (DVmixing > 0)
