a) According to Arrhenius equation log(k2/k1) = Ea/2.303R[T2-T1/T1T2] 1
17 log(k2/1.6 x 106)=0 ; (k2/1.6 x 106)=1
K2=1.6 x 106
b) For an elementary reaction, order must be equal to molecularity. Here
order=3/2, a fraction. Hence give reaction cannot be an elementary 1
reaction.
18 a) KCl is an electrolyte, it dissociates to give K+ and Cl- ions. Urea
solution is non-electrolyte. It does not dissociate in the solution. Hence 1
number of particles is greater in 0.1molar KCl solution and elevation in
boiling point also will be greater for 0.1molar KCl solution.
b) i = 3 1

19 a) n -Butyl bromide is a straight chain compound where as t-Butyl bromide 1

is branched. van der Waal’s forces increases with surface area. straight
chain compounds will have more surface area and more inter molecular
interaction and hence more boiling point.
b) In a racemic mixture equal amount of d and l compounds are present.
Rotation due to one isomer is cancelled by rotation due to the other. 1
Hence optically inactive.
20 a) Esterification reaction: ethyl benzoate can be prepared by heating 1
benzoic acid with ethyl alcohol in presence of dry HCl (or Conc.
sulphuric acid)
C6H5COOH +C2H5OH→C6H5COOC2H5 +H2O

25 a) (i) with zinc amalgum ,it gives normal pentane, Hence A is a straight 3
chain compound(1/2 mark)
(ii) A gives a positive iodoform test ,hence contains CH3CO group(1/2
mark)
(iii)A gives a positive result with Tollen’s reagent ,hence it contains an
aldehyde group.( ½ mark)
(iv) As the molecular formula is C5H8O2 which includes CH3CO and
CHO( that is C3H4O2) ,A must contain a C2H4 fragment.(1/2 mark)
(v) The possible structure is (1/2 mark)

IUPAC name is 4-oxo pentanal (1/2 mark)

correct methode 1 mark
c) (i)Add Mg metal (ii) to CH3MgBr add ethanal,acidify. Or any correct
methode 1 mark
d) Alkyl halides are polar molecules ,held together by dipole-dipole
interaction.Water molecules are held together by hydrogen bonding.The
new forces of attraction between alkyl halide and water are weaker than
the forces of attraction already existing in alkyl halide molecules and
water molecules.Hence alkyl halides are immiscible with water.( 1 mark)
28 a) Derivation -2 marks 3
b) As t75% =2 x t50%, it is a first order reaction ( 1 mark)

i)Here ,Co is in 3+ oxidation state. Cyanido ligand is a strong field ligand. 4

29 Hence the configuration is d4 strong field,( t2g4) and CFSE value is -16Dq+P
(1 mark)
ii) d4 ,weak ligand , t2g3 eg1 number of unpaired electrons =4 (1 mark)
iii) a) in case of weak field, pairing occurs only once in one of the t2g
orbitals. But in case of strong field ligands all the three t2g orbitals
are paired. Hence 3P is added. (1 mark)
b )Blue colour has less wavelength and more energy. If the complex
emits blue colour ,its complementary wavelength of less energy must
have absorbed from visible light. ie, for excitation electron needs less
energy only. Hence CFSE value must be small compared to a red
coloured complex. (1 mark)
30 a) strongest oxidising agent :Flourine 1
strongest reducing agent in the table :Potassium
b) For 1mol zinc 2mol electrons(2Faraday),that is 2x96500C charge is
required .Hence for depositing 2mol zinc 4F (4 x 96500C)charge is
required. 1
c) I -ions has higher oxidation potentials than water. Hence Iodine gas is
released. But F- ions have lower oxidation potential than water hence 2
water is easily oxidised to O2 gas.

31 a) Brief explanation (3 marks)
b) LnN (1 M)
c) Lanthanoid contraction (1M)
Or Or
a) Although second ionisation enthalpy of copper is large but hydration 1
enthalpy of Cu2+ is much more negative than that for Cu+ (aq) and hence
it more than compensates for the second ionisation enthalpy of Cu.
Hence Cu+ ions disproportionate in aqueous solution.(1 mark)
b) Mn is in +2 state. Weak field ligand. No pairing. 5 unpaired electrons are 1
present. Magnetic moment is [n(n+2)]1/2 = [5(5+2)]1/2= (35)1/2=5.92M

undergoing any changes in composition is called azeotrope.

393.5K .

C(urea)RT=C(glucose)RT (1/2 marks)
n(urea)RT/V =n(glucose)RT/V (1/2 marks)
30/60=W(glucose)/180 (1/2 marks)
W(glucose)=90g (1/2 marks)

Or Or

a) At a given temperature as KH value increases , solubility decreases.

Hence O2 has more solubility at 303K.(1mark)
b) In case of positive deviation, Solvent -solvent interaction and solute-
solute inter action will be more than solvent-solute inter action. As a
5
result vapour pressure shows an elevation from the ideal behavior. As
vapour pressure increases the boiling point decreases.
Graphical representation.
Eg:A mixture of acetone and CS2 shows positive deviation.(2 marks)
c) WB=1.00g;WA=50g;Kf=5.12KKg/mol; ΔTf=0.40K

ΔTf=(Kf x WBx1000)/MB x WA ( ½ mark)

MB=(Kf x WBx1000)/ ΔTf x WA ( ½ mark)

b) Hinsberg test. Primary amines will react with benzene sulphonyl chloride
to give a soluble product,/or write chemical equation. Secondary amines will
gives insoluble product/or write chemical equation. Tertiary amines will not
react with hinsberg reagent as there are no hydrogen atom to replace. 1
(i) add Br2/H2O correct equation
(ii) add (CH3CO)2O/pyridine; to the product (acetanilide)add Br2/CH3COOH 1
