Section C
Ascersion and reasoning
These questions consist of two statements, each printed as Assertion and
Reason. While answering these questions, you are required to choose any
one of the following four responses.
(a) If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct
explanation of the Assertion.
(b) If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct
explanation of the Assertion.
(c) If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
(d) If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
11) Assertion:Azeotropic mixtures are formed only by non-ideal solutions
and they may have boiling points either greater than both the
components or less than both the components.
Reason : The composition of the vapour phase is same as that of the
liquid phase of an azeotropic mixture.
12) Molarity of a solution in liquid state changes with temperature.
Reason : The volume of a solution changes with change in temperature.
13)Assertion: If a liquid solute more volatile than the solvent is added to
the solvent, the vapour pressure of the solution may increase i.e., p s > po.
Reason : In the presence of a more volatile liquid solute, only the solute
will form the vapours and solvent will not.
14) When methyl alcohol is added to water, boiling point of water
increases.
Reason : When a volatile solute is added to a volatile solvent elevation in
boiling point is observed.
15) Assertion : When a solution is separated from the pure solvent by a
semi- permeable membrane, the solvent molecules pass through it from
pure solvent side to the solution side
Reason : Diffusion of solvent occurs from a region of high concentration
solution to a region of low concentration solution.
