Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Chemical Bonding Short Answer Questions.

Question 31.
Define the following

  1. Bond order
  2. Hybridisation
  3. a- bond

Answer:
1. Bond order:
Bond orderSamacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-14
The number of bonds formed between the two bonded atoms in a molecule is called bond order.

2. Hybridisation:
It is a process of mixing of atomic orbitais of the same atom with. comparable energy to form equal number of new equivalent orbitais with same energy. The resultant orbitais are called hybridised orbitais and they possess maximum symmetry and definite orientation in space so as to minimise the force of repulsion between their electrons.

3. σ – bond:
When two atomic orbitais overlap linearly along the axis, the resultant bond is called sigma (σ) bond.

Question 32.
What is a pi bond?
Answer:
Pi – bond:
When two atomic orbitals overlap sideways, the resultant covalent bond is called a pi (π) bond.

Question 33.
In CH4, NH3 and H2O, the central atom undergoes sp3 hybridisation-yet their bond angles are different, why?
Answer:
1. In CH4, NH3 and H2O the central atom undergoes sp3 hybridisation. But their bond angles are different due to the presence of lone pair of electrons.

2. It can be explained by VSEPR theory. According to this theory, even though the hybridisation is same, the repulsive force between the bond pairs and lone pairs arc not same.

3. Bond pair-Bond pair < Bond pair – Lone pair < Lone pair – Lone pair So due to the varying repulsive force the bond pairs and lone pairs are distorted from regular geometry and organise themselves in such a way that repulsion will be minimum and stability will be maximum.

4. In case of CH4, there are 4 bond pairs and no lone pair of electrons. So it remains in its regular geometry. i.e., tetrahedral with bond angle 109° 28’.

5. H2O has 2 bond pairs and 2 lone pairs. There is large repulsion between lp – lp. Again repulsion between lp – bp is more than that of 2 bond pairs. So 2 bonds are more restricted to form inverted V shape (or) bent shape molecule with a bond angle of 104° 35’.

6. NH3 has 3 bond pairs and 1 lone pair. There is repulsion between lp – bp. So 3 bonds are more restricted to form pyramidal shape with bond angle equal to 107° 18’.

Question 34.

Question 37.
What do you understand by Linear combination of atomic orbitais in MO theory.
Answer:
Linear combination of atomic orbitais (LCAO):
1. The wave functions for the molecular orbitais can be obtained by solving Schrodinger wave equation for the molecule. Since solving Schrodinger wave equation is too complex, a most common method linear combination of atomic orbitais (LCAO) is used to obtain wave function for molecular orbitals.

2. Atomic orbitais are represented by wave functions ψ. Consider two atomic orbitals represented by the wave functions ψA and ψB with comparable energy that combines to form two molecular orbitals.

3. One is bonding molecular orbitai (ψ bonding) and the other is anti-bonding molecular orbital (ψ anti-bonding).

4. The wave function for molecular orbitais, ψA and ψB can be obtained by the LCAO as shown below:
ψbonding = ψA + ψB
ψanti-bonding = ψA – ψB

5. The formation of bonding molecular orbital can be considered as the result of constructive interference of the atomic orbitais and the formation of anti-bonding molecular orbital can be the result of the destructive interference of the atomic orbitais.

6. The formation of two molecular orbitals from two is orbitals is show below.

Constructive interaction:
The two is orbitals are in phase and have the same signs.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-23

Answer:
1. The polarity of a covalent bond can be measured in terms of dipole moment which is defined as: µ = q x 2d, where µ is the dipole moment, q is the charge, 2d is the distance between the two charges.

2. The dipole moment is a vector quantity and the direction of the dipole moment points from the negative charge to positive charge.

3. The unit of dipole moment is Coulomb metre (C m). It is usually expressed in Debye unit (D).

4. 1 Debye = 3.336 x 10-30 Cm

Question 40.
Linear form of carbon dioxide molecule has two polar bonds. yet the molecule has zero dipole moment, why?
Answer:

  1. The linear form of carbon dioxide has zero dipole moment, even though it has two polar bonds.
  2. In CO2, there are two polar bonds [C = O], which have dipole moments that are equal in magnitude but have opposite direction.

Question 42.
Explain the bond formation in BeCl2 and MgCl2. BeCl2 bond formation:
Answer:
1. Electronic confiuration of Be(Z = 4) is 1s2 2s2 and electronic configuration of Cl (Z = 17) is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5.

2. Beryllium has 2 electrons in its valence shell and chlorine atoms (2) have 7 electrons in their valence shell.

3. By losing two electrons, Beryllium attains the inert gas configuration of Helium and becomes a dipositive cation, Be2+ and each chlorine atom accepts one electron to become (Cl) uninegative anion and attains the stable electronic configuration of Argon.

4. Then Be2+ combine with 2Cl ions to form an ionic crystal in which they are held together by electrostatic attractive forces.

5. During the formation of 1 mole of BeCl2, the amount of energy released is – 468 kJ/mol. This favours the formation of BeCl, and its stabilisation.

MgCI2 bond formation:
1. Electronic configuration of Mg (z = 12) is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2.
Electronic configuration of Cl (z = 17) is 1s2 2p6 3p6 3p5

2. Magnesium has 2 electrons in its valence shell and chlorine has 7 electrons in its valence shell.

3. By losing two electrons, magnesium attains the inert gas configuration of Neon and becomes a dipositive cation (Mg2+) and two chlorine atoms accept these electrons to become two uninegative anions [2Cl] by attaining the stable inert gas configuration of Argon.

4. These ions, Mg2+ and 2Cl combine to form an ionic crystal in which they are held together by electrostatic attractive forces.

5. The energy released during the formation of 1 mole of MgCl2 is – 783 kJ/mole. This favours the formation of MgCI2 and its stabilisation.

Question 43.
Which bond is stronger or π? Why?
Answer:
1. Sigma bonds (σ) are stronger than Pi bonds (π). Because, sigma bonds are formed from bonding orbitals directly between the nuclei of the bonding atoms, resulting in greater overlap and a strong sigma bond (axial overlapping).

2. π bonds results from overlap of atomic orbitals that are in contact through two areas of overlap (lateral overlapping). Pi bonds are more diffused bonds than sigma bonds.

Question 44.
Define bond energy.
Answer:

Bond energy (or) Bond enthalpy is defined as the minimum amount of energy required to break one mole of a bond in molecules in their gaseous state. The unit of bond energy is kJ mol-1

Question 45.
Hydrogen gas is diatomic whereas inert gases are monoatormic – explain on the basis of MO theory.
Answer:
1. Hydrogen gas is diatomic. According to MO theory. which is based on quantum mechanics H2 molecule can be represented in terms of the following diagram called M.O. diagram.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-33
H – H. i.e.. H2 molecule has two atoms which are connected by 1 σ bond. So it is diatomic.

2. But in the case of inert gases. the valence shell is fully filled i.e.. an octet (8 electrons) (or) duplet (2 electrons) in case of Helium, due to which they are in monoatomic state and remain stable. So they do not combine with any atom (neither of same or of different elements). Due to this they do no exist in diatomic state and always exist in mono – atomic state.

Question 46.
What is Polar Covalent bond? Explain with example.
Answer:
1. If a covalent bound is formed between atoms having different electronegativities. the atom with higher electronegativity will have greater tendency to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself than the other atom. As a result, the cloud of shared electron pair gets distorted and polar covalent bond is formed.

2. Example – HF – Hydrogen fluoride:
The electronegativities of hydrogen and fluorine on Pauling’s scale are 2.1 and 4 respectively. It means that fluorine attract the shared pair of

electrons approximately twice as much as hydrogen which leads to partial negative charge on fluorine atom and partial positive charge on hydrogen atom. Hence, the H – F bond is said to be a polar covalent bond.

The other two sp2 hybridised orbitals of both carbon atom linearly overlap with the four is orbitals of four hydrogen atoms leading to the formation of two C – H sigma bonds on each carbon atom.

5. The unhybridised 2pz orbital of both carbon atoms can overlap only sideways as they are not in the molecular axis. This lateral overlap results in the formation of a pi bond between the two carbon atoms.

Bonding in acetylene (C2H2):
1. The electronic configuration of valence shell of carbon atom in the ground state is [He] 2s2 2px1 2pz0. One electron from 2s orbital is promoted to 2pz orbital in the excited state to satisfy the valency of carbon.

2. In acetylene molecule, both the carbon atoms are in sp hybridised state. The 2s and 2px orbitals resulting in two equivalent sp hybridised orbitals are formed lying in a straight line along the X – axis. The unhybridised 2py, and 2pz orbitais lie perpendicular to the X-axis.

Question 51.
Explain VSEPR theory. Applying this theory to predict the shapes of F7 and SF6.
Answer:
VSEPR theory:
1. The shape of the molecules depend on the number of valence shell electron pair around the central atom.

2. There are two types of electron pairs namely, bond pairs and lone pairs.

3. Each pair of valence electrons around the central atom repel each other and hence they are located as far away as possible in three dimensional space to minimise the repulsion between them.

4. The repulsive interaction between the different types of electron pairs is in the following
order:
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-44

5. The lone pair of electrons are localised only on the central atom and interact with only one nucleus whereas the bond pairs are shared between two atoms and they interact with two nuclei. Because of this, the lone pairs occupy more space and have greater repulsive power than the bond pairs in a molecule.

IF7:
It is an AB7 type molecule. This molecule has 7 bond pair of electrons and no lone pair of electrons. Due to bond pair-bond pair interaction of electrons, IF7 has pentagonal bipyramidal shape.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-45

SF6:
It is an AB6 type molecule. This molecule has 6 bond pairs of electrons and no lone pair of electrons. Due to bond pair-bond pair interaction of electrons, SF6 has octahedral shape.

Question 52.
CO2 and H2O both are triatomic molecules but their dipole moment values are different. Why?
Answer:
1. Linear form of carbon dioxide has zero dipole moment. In CO2 the dipole moment of two polar bonds are equal in magiitude but have opposite direction. Hence, the net dipole moment of the CO2 molecule is
µ = µ1 + µ2
µ = µ1 + (- µ1) = 0
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-47
In this caseSamacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-48

2. But in the case of water, net dipole moment is the vector sum µ1 + µ2 as follows:
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-49
Dipole moment in water is found to be 1.85 D.

3. CO2 and H2O both are triatomic molecules but their dipole moment values are zero and 1.85 D respectively.

Question 53.
Which one of the following has highest bond order? N2, N2+ or N2 ?
Answer:
N2 (14 electrons)
Bond order = 3, Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-50
N2+ (13 electrons)
Bond order = 2.5, Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-51
N2(15 electrons)

Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-52
So N2 has the highest bond order.

Question 54.
Explain the covalent character in ionic bond.
Answer:
1. Ionic compounds like lithium chloride shows covalent character and it is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol.

2. The partial covalent character in ionic compounds can be explained on the basis of a phenomenon called polarisation.

3. In an ionic compound, there is an electrostatic attractive force between the cation and anion. The positively charged cation attract the valence electrons of anion while repelling the nucleus.

This cause a distortion in the electron cloud of the anion and its electron density drills towards the cation, which results in some sharing of valence electrons between these ions. Thus, a partial covalent character is developed between them. This phenomenon is called polarisation.

4. Thus due to polarisation, ionic compounds shows covalent character.

Question 55.
Describe Fajan’s rule.
Answer:
1. The ability of a cation to polarise an anion is called its polarising ability and the tendency of an anion to get polarised is called its polarisibility. The extent of polarisation in an ionic compound is given by the Fajans rule.

2. To show greater covalent character, both the cation and anion should have high charge on them. Higher the positive charge on the Cation greater will be the attraction on the electron cloud of the anion.

Similarly higher the magnitude of negative charge on anion, greater is its polansability. For example, Na+ < Mg2+ < Al3+, the covalent character also follows the order – NaCI < MgCl2 < AICI3

3. The smaller cation and larger anion show greater covalent character due to the greater extent of polarisation. e.g., LiCl is more covalent than NaCI.

4. Cation having ns2np6nd10 configuration shows greater polarising power than the cations with ns2np6 configuration. e.g., CuCI is more covalent than NaCl.

Explain the ionic bond formation in MgO and CaF2
Magnesium oxide (MgO):
Answer:
Electronic configuration of Mg – 1s2 2s2 2p5 3s2
Electronic configuration of O – 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s6 3p4.
1. Magnesium has two electrons in its valence shell and oxygen has six electrons in its valence shell.

2. By losing two electrons, Mg acquires the inert gas configuration of Neon and becomes a dipositive cation Mg2+
Mg → Mg2+ + 2e

3. Oxygen accepts the two electrons to become a dinegative oxide anion, O2- thereby attaining the inert gas configuration of Neon.
O + 2e → O2-

4. These two ions, Mg2+ and O2- combine to form an ionic crystal in which they are held together by electrostatic attractive forces.

5. During the formation of magnesium oxide crystal 601.6 kJ mol-1 energy is released . This favours the formation of magnesium oxide (MgO) and its stabilisation.

Question 5.
Of the two molecules OCS and CS2 which one has higher dipole moment value? Why?
Answer:
OCS and CS2
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-59

The dipole moment µOCS = 0.7 149 ± 0.0003 Debye.
CS2:
S = C = S
In CS2, the bond dipoles of 2C = S have same values and bond dipoles cancel each other so dipole moment of CS2 is zero. Among OCS and CS2, OCS has a higher dipole moment because in OCS oxygen is more electronegative than sulphur and C = S and C = O bonds in OCS molecules do not cancel each other.

On the other hand CS2, due to linear structure, the bond dipole of two C = S bonds cancel each other. On the other hand, CS2 due to linear structure, the bond dipoles of two C = S bonds cancel each other and thc recultant dipo’c moment value is zero. So OCS has a higher dipole moment than CS2.

Question 6.
Arrange the following in the decreasing order of Bond angle

  1. CH4, H2O, NH3
  2. C2H2, BF3, CCl4

Answer:
1. CH4, H2O, NH3:
NH3 = 107°, Water= 104.5°, CH4 = 109.5°
Decreasing order of bond angle: H2O < NH3 < CH4

2. C2H2, BF3, CCl4:
C2H2 = 1800, BF3 = 120°, CCl4 = 109.5°
Decreasing order of bond angle: CCl4 < BF3 < C2H2

Question 7.
Bond angle in PH4+ is higher than in PH3. Why?
Answer:
Phosphorous in both PH3 and PH4+ is sp3 hybridised. Due to the absence of lone pair – bond pair repulsion and presence of four identical bond pair – bond pair interactions, PH4+ assumes tetrahedral geometry with a bond angle of 109° 28’.

But PH3 has three bond pairs and one lone pair around P. Due to greater lone pair-bond pair repulsion than bond pair-bond pair repulsion, the tetrahedral angle decreases from 109° 28’ to 93.6°. As a result PH3 is pyramidal.
PH3 – Pyramidal with bond angle of 93.6°. PH4+ Tetrahedral with bond angle of 109° 28’.

Question 8.
Explain the bond formation in SF4 and CCl4 using hybridisation concept.
Answer:
In SF4, the central atom is sp3d hybridised.
1. The molecule SF3 will have a total 34 valence electron 6 form sulphur, 7 each from four fluorine atoms.

2. Sulphur atom will from 4 single bonds with fluorine atoms. These bonds account for the 8 electrons out of the 34 valence electrons. Each fluorine atom will have 3 lone pair of electrons in order to have a complete octet structure.

These lone pairs will use up 24 valence electrons. So the total used valence electrons, are 32. The remaining 2 electrons will be placed on the sulphur atom as a lone pair. Sulphur atom gets a total of 10 electrons 8 from the bonds and 2 as lone pair.

3. This is quite Sulphur atom gets a total of 10 electrons 8 from the bonds and 2 as lone pair. This is quite possible for sulphur because it has easy access to its 3d orbital which means that it can expand its octet and accommodate more than 8 electrons.

4. Sulphur forms 4 single bonds and has 1 lone pair which means that its steric number is equal to 5. In this case sulphur will use five hybrid orbitais, such as one 3s orbital three 3p orbitais and one 3d orbital. So the central atom is sp3d hybridised.

CCl4:
1. It is not necessary to invoke hybridisation especially in CCl4. It must be invoked for all tetrahedral bonds of carbon and other atoms.

2. The electronic configuration of an isolated carbon atom in its ground state is 1s2 s2 2p2.

3. CCl4 is a tetrahedral molecule comprising of four single bonds known as a bonds between the carbon atom and the chlorine atoms. In this type of bonding, the 2s orbital and three 2p orbitals of carbon atoms are mixed to produce four identical orbitals, a process known as sp3 hybridisation.

Question 9.
The observed bond length of N2+ is larger than N2 while the bond length in NO+ is less than in NO. Why?
Answer:
(a)
(1) By molecular orbital theory, the bond order of both N2+ is 2.5 whereas N2 is 3.

2. N2 has 5e in the antibonding molecular orbital whereas N2+ has 4e in the antibonding molecular orbital. So N2+ will make a stronger and shorter bond length.

3. More the bond order and bond strength, and lesser will be the bond length.

4. So we can easily conclude N2 has more bond length than N2
Bond order in Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-62
Bond order inSamacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-63
So, N2 is more stable than N2+. But bond length N2+ is greater than N2.

(b) NO+ & NO
Bond order of NO = 2.5
Bond order of NO+ = 3
Due to lesser bond order in NO, the bond length is greater than NO+ So, NO+ bond length is shorter than NO bond length.

Answer:
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-117

Question 10.
Define bond length.
Answer:
The distance between the nuclei of two covalently bonded atoms is called bond length. For e.g., in a covalent molecule A – B. the bond length is equal to the sum of the radii of bonded atoms. i.e., rA + rß = bond length.

Question 11.
Prove that bond order is inversely proportional to bond length.
Answer:
1. Bond order ∝ Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-118

2. An example for illustrating the above equation is Carbon – carbon single bond length (I .54Å) is longer than the carbon-carbon double bond length (1 .34Å) and the carbon- carbon triple bond length (1 .20Å).

Question 12.
Define Bond angle.
Answer:
Covalent bonds are directional in nature and are oriented in specific direction in space. This directional nature creates a fixed angle between two covalent bonds in a molecule and this angle is termed as bond angle.

Question 13.
Define Resonance.
Answer:
The similar structures in which the relative position of the atoms are same but they differ in the position of bonding and lone pair of electrons are called resonance structures and this phenomenon is called resonance.

Question 14.
What are polar and non-polar molecules?
Answer:
1. Diatomic molecules such as H2, O2, F2 have zero dipole moment and are called non polar molecules.

2. Molecules such as HF, HCl, CO, NO have non zero dipole moment values and are called polar molecules.

Question 15.
What is meant by polarisaion?
Answer:
The ability of a cation to polarise an anion is called its polarising ability and the tendency of the anion to get polarised is called its polarisability. This phenomenon is known as polarisation.

Question 16.
Among NaCI, MgCI2 and AICI3 which shows more covalent character? Why?
Answer:
Among, the ionic compounds NaCI, MgCl2 and AICI3 the charge of the cation increases in the order Na+ < Mg2+ < Al3+, thus the covalent character also follows the same order NaCl < MgCI2 < AlCI3. So AICI3 shows more covalent character.

Question 17.
Lithium chloride is more covalent than sodium chloride. Justify this statement.
Answer:
1. The smaller cation and larger anion shows greater covalent character due to greater extent of polarisation.

2. The size of Li+ ion is smaller than Na+ ion and hence the polarising power of Li+ ion is more. So lithium chloride is more covalent than sodium chloride.

Question 18.
Lithium iodide is more covalent than Lithium chloride. Give reason.
Answer:
Lithium iodide is more covalent than Lithium chloride as the size of I ion is larger than Cl ion. Hence I ion will be more polarised than Cl ion by the cation Li+. So LiI is more covalent than LiCl.

Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-125

Question 24.
What is meant by metallic bond?
Answer:
The forces that keep the atoms of the metal so closely in a metallic crystal constitute what is generally known as the metallic bond.

Question 25.
Why metallic bonding is referred as electronic bonding?
Answer:
1. Metallic crystals are an assemblage of positive ions immersed in a gas of free electrons. The free electrons are due to the ionisation of the valence electrons of the atom of the metal.

2. As the valence electrons of the atoms are freely shared by all the ions in the crystal, the metallic bonding is also referred to as electronic bonding.

Question 26.
Metals have high density. Give reason.
Answer:
The electrostatic attraction between the metal ions and the free electrons yields a three dimensional close packed crystal with a large number of nearest metal ions. So metals have high density.

Question 27.
Metals are ductile in nature. why?
Answer:
In the close packed structure of metallic crystal. it contains many slip planes along which movement can occur during mechanical loading, so the metal acquires ductility.

Question 28.
Give reason behind the lustrous nature, high melting point and boiling point of metals?
Answer:
1. The metallic lustre is due to the reflection of light by the electron cloud.

2. As the metallic bond is strong enough. the metal atoms are reluctant to break apart into a liquid or gas, so the metals have high melting and boiling points.

Question 29.
Metals are very good electrical conductors. Why?
Answer:
1. The bonding in metal is explained by molecular orbital theory. As per this theory. the atomic orbitals of large number of atoms in a crystal overlap to form numerous bonding and anti-bonding molecular orbitals without any band gap.

2. The bonding molecular orbitals are completely filled with an electron pair in each, and the anti-bonding molecular orbitals are empty.

3. Absence of band gap accounts for high electrical conductivity of metals.

Question 30.
Metals have high thermal conductivity. Give reason.
Answer:
High thermal conductivity of metals is due to thermal excitation of many electrons from the valence band to the conduction band.

Question 31.
Except Cu, Ag and Au, most metals are black. Why?
Answer:
Most metals are black except copper, silver and gold. It is due to the absorption of light of all wavelengths. Absorption of light of all wavelengths is due to the absence of band gap in metals.

Question 32.
Write the favourable factors for the formation of ionic bond.
Answer:

  1. Low ionisation enthalpy of metal atoms.
  2. High electron gain enthalpy of non-metal atoms.
  3. High lattice enthalpy of compound formed.

Question 33.
Although geometries of NH3 and H2O molecules are distorted tetrahedral, bond angle in water is less than that of ammonia. Discuss.
Answer:
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-126
Because of two lone pair of electrons on O – atom, repulsion on bond pairs is greater in H2O in comparison to NH3. Thus, the bond angle is less in H2O molecules.

Question 34.
Write the significance/applications of dipole moment.
Answer:

  1. In predicting the nature of the molecules: Molecules with specific dipole moments are polar in nature and those with zero dipole moments are non-polar in nature.
  2. In the determination of shapes of molecules.
  3. In calculating the percentage of ionic character.

Question 35.
Although both CO2 and H2O are triatomic molecules, the shape of H2O molecule is bent while that of CO2 is linear. Explain this on the basis of dipole moment.
Answer:
In CO2, there are two C = O bonds. Each C = O bond is a polar bond. The net dipole moment of CO2 moleculc is zero. This is possible only if CO2 is a linear molecule. (O = C = O). The bond dipoles of two C = O bonds cancels the dipole moment of each other.

Whereas, H2O molecule has a net dipole moment (1.84 D). H2O molecule has a bent structure because here the O – H bonds are oriented at an angle of 104.5° and do not cancel the bond dipole moments of each other.

Question 36.
What is the total number of sigma and pi bonds in the following molecules?

  1. C2H2
  2. C2H4

Answer:

1. H – C = C – H
Sigma bond = 3

Question 3.
Calculate the bond enthalpy of OH bond in water.
Answer:
1. In the case of polyatomic molecules with two or more same bond types, the arithmetic mean of the bond energy value of the same type of bonds is considered as average bond enthalpy.

2. For e.g., in water, there are two OH bonds present and the energy needed to break them are not same.

3. H2O(g) → H(g) + OH(g)
∆H1 = 502 kJ mol-1
OH(g) → H(g) + O(g)
∆H = 427 kJ mol
The average bond enthalpy of OH bond in water = \(\frac { 502 + 427 }{ 2 }\) = 464.5 kJ mol-1

Question 4.
Explain how the ionic character in a covalent bond is related to electronegativity?
Answer:
1. The extent of ionic character in a covalent bond can be related to the electronegativity difference of the bonded atoms.

2. In a typical polar molecule Aδ- – Bδ+ the electronegativity difference (XA – XB) can be used to predict the percentage of the ionic character as follows

3. If the electronegativity difference XA – XB is equal to 1.7, then the bond A – B has 50% ionic character.

4. If it is greater than 1.7, then the bond XA – XB has more than 50% ionic character.

5. If it is greater than 1.7, then the bond A – B has more than 50% ionic character.

6. If it is lesser than 1.7, then the bond A – B has less than 50% ionic character.

Question 5.

Question 17.
Define Octet rule. Write its significance and limitations.
Answer:
Octet rule:
Atoms of elements combine with each other in order to complete their respective octet so as to acquire the stable nearest noble gas configuration.

Significance:
It helps to explain why dilfferent atoms combine with each other to form ionic compounds or covalent compounds.

Limitations of Octet rule:
1. According to octet rule, atoms take part in chemical combination to achieve the configuration of nearest noble gas elements.

However, some of noble gas elements like Xenon have formed compounds with fluorine and oxygen. For example: XeF2, XeF4, XeO3 etc. Therefore, validity of the octet rule has been challenged.

  4. A multiple bond is treated as lilt is a single bond and the remaining electron pairs which constitute the bond may be regarded as single super pair.

Question 24.
Apart from tetrahedral geometry, another possible geometry for CH4 is square planar with four H atoms at the corners of the square and C atom at its centre. Explain why CH4 is not square planar?
Answer:
Electronic configuration of carbon atom: C: σ1s22s22p2.
in the excited state, the orbital picture of carbon can be represented as:
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-159
Hence, carbon atom undergoes sp3 hybridisation in CH4 molecule and takes tetrahedral shape.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-160
For a square planar shape, the hybridisation of the central atom has to be dsp3. However, an atom of carbon does not have d – orbitals to undergo dsp3 hybridisation. Hence, the structure of CH4 is tetrahedral.

Question 25.
Explain why BeH2 molecule has a zero dipole moment although the Be – H bonds are polar.
Answer:
The Lewis structure for BeH2 molecule is as follows:Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-161. There is no lone pair at the central atom (Be) and there are two bond pairs. Hence, BeH2, is of the type AB2. It has a linear structure.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-162
Dipole moments of each Be – H bond are equal and opposite in direction. Therefore, they nullify each other. Hence, BeH2 has a net zero dipole moment.

IV. Answer the following questions in detail:

Question 1.
Explain about Kossel-Lewis approach to chemical bonding.
Answer:
1. Kossel and Lewis approach to chemical bonding is based on the inertness of the noble gases which have little or no tendency to combine with other atoms.

2. They proposed that noble gases are stable due to their completely filled outer electronic configuration.

3. Elements other than noble gases try to attain the completely filled outer electronic configuration by losing, gaining or sharing one or more electrons from their outer shell.

4. For e.g., sodium loses one electron to form Na ion and chlorine accepts that electron to give chloride ion, Cl.These two ions are held together by electrostatic attractive forces, a bond known as an electrovalent bond.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-163

5. In diatomic molecules such as nitrogen and oxygen, they achieve the stable noble gas electronic configuration by mutual sharing of electrons.

6. Lewis introduced a scheme to represent the chemical bond and the electrons present in the outer shell of the atom called Lewis dot structure.

Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-166

Question 2.
What is meant by covalent bond?
Explain the covalent bonding in H2, O2, N2.
Answer:
1. Mutual sharing of one or more pair of electrons between two combining atoms results in the formation of a chemical bond called a covalent bond.

2. If two atoms share just one pair of electron, a single covalent bond is formed as in the çase of hydrogen molecule (H2).

3. If two or three electron pairs are shared benveen the two combining atoms, then the covalent bond is called double bond and triple bond respectively, as in the case of O2 and N2 molecules respectively.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-167

Question 3.
What is an ionic bond?
Explain about the formation of ionic bond with a suitable example.
Answer:
1. The complete transfer of electrons leads to the fomiation of a cation and an anion. Both these ions are held together by electrostatic attractive forces which is known as ionic bond.

2. KCl: Potassium chloride
Electronic configuration of K [Ar] 4s
Eleçtronic configuration of Cl = [Ne] 3s2 3p5

3. Potassium has 1 electron in its valence shell and chlorine has 7 electrons in its valence shell.

4. By losing one electron potassium attains the nearest inert gas configuration of Argon and becomes a unipositive cation (K) and chlorine accepts this electron to become uninegative chloride ion (CI) to attain the stable configuration of nearest noble gas, Argon.

5. These two ions combine to form an ionic crystal in which they are held together by electrostatic attractive forces.

6. During the formation of one mole of potassium chloride crystal from its constituent ions, 718 kJ of energy is released. This favours the formation of KCl and its stabilisation.

Question 4.
Define coordinate covalent bond. Illustrate the formation of coordinate covalent bond with a suitable example.
Answer:
1. In the bond formation, one of the combining atoms donates a pair of electrons i.e., two electrons which are necessary for the covalent bond formation and these electrons are shared by both the combining atoms, and the bond formed is called coordinate covalent bond.

2. The combining atom which donates the pair of electron is called the donor atom and the other atom is called the acceptor atom. This bond is denoted by an arrow starting from the donor atom pointing towards the acceptor atom.

3. For example, in ferricyanide ion [Fe(CN)6]4- each cyanide ion (CN) donates a pair of electrons to form a coordinate bond with iron (Fe2+) and these electrons are shared by Fe2+ and CN ions.

4. Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-168

Question 5.
Explain about valence bound theory for the formation of H2 molecule.
Answer:
1. Two hydrogen atoms Ha and Hb are separated by infinite distance. At this stage, there is no interaction between these two atoms and the potential energy of this system is arbitrarly taken as zero.

2. As these two atoms approach each other, in addition to electrostatic attractive forces between the nucleus and its own electrons, the following new forces begins to operate
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-170

3. The new attractive forces Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-171 arise between:

  • nucleus of Ha and valence electron of Hb
  • nucleus of Hb and the valence electron of Ha

4. The new repulsive forces Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-172 arise between:

  • the nucleus Of Ha and Hb
  • the valence electrons of Ha and Hb

5. The attractive forces tend to bring Ha and Hb together whereas the repulsive forces tends to push them apart.

6. At the initial stage, as the two hydrogen atoms approach each other, the attractive forces are stronger than repulsive forces and the potential energy decreases.

7. A stage is reached where the net attractive forces are exactly balanced by repulsive forces and the potential energy of the system acquires a minimum energy.

8. At this stage, there is a maximum overlap between the atomic orbitals of Ha and Hb and atoms Ha and Hb are now said to be bonded together by a covalent bond.

Question 6.
What arc the salient features of Valence Bond (VB) theory?
Answer:
1. When half filled orbitals of two atoms overlap, a covalent bond will be formed between them.

2. The resultant overlapping orbitals are occupied by the two electrons with opposite spins. For example when H2 is formed, the two is electron of two hydrogen atoms get paired up and occupy the overlapped orbitals.

3. The strength of a covalent bond depends upon the extent of overlap of atomic orbitals. Greater the overlap, larger is the energy released and stronger will be the bond formed.

4. Each atomic orbital has a specific direction (excepts-orbital which is spherical) and hence orbital overlap takes place in the direction that maximises overlap.

5. Depending upon the nature of overlap, the bonds are classified as σ covalent bond and π it covalent bond.

6. When two atomic orbitals overlap linearly along the axis, the resultant bend is called a sigma (σ) bond. This overlap is also called or “axial overlap”.

7. When two atomic orbitals overlap sideways the resultant covalent bond is called a pi (π) bond.

  1. bond rormation in Beryllium chloride takes place by sp hybridisation.
  2. The valence shell of Beryllium has the electronic configuration as follows:

Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-173

3. In BeCl2, both the Be – Cl bonds are equivalent and it was observed that the molecule is linear. VB theory explains this observed behaviour by sp hybridisation. One of the paired electrons in the 2s orbital gets excited to 2p orbital.

4. Now the 2s and 2p orbitals hybridise and produce two equivalent sp hybridised orbitals which have 50% s-character and 50% p-character. These sp hybridised orbitals are oriented in opposite direction.

5. Each of the sp hybridised orbitals linearly overlap with p orbital of the chlorine to form a covalent bond between Be and Cl atoms as follow:

5. The six sp3d2 hybridised orbitals of sulphur overlaps linearly with 2pz orbital of six fluorine atoms to form the six S – F bonds in sulphur hexa fluoride.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-182

Question 11.
Explain about the salient features of molecular orbital theory.
Answer:
1. When atoms combine to form molecules, their individual atomic orbitals lose their identity and form new orbitals called molecular orbitals.

2. The shape of molecular orbitals depend upon the shapes of combining atomic orbitals.

3. The number of molecular orbitals formed is the same as the number of combining atomic orbitals. half the number of molecular orbitals formed will have lower energy and are called bonding orbitals, while the remaining half molecular orbitals will have higher energy and are called anti-bonding molecular orbitals.

4. The bonding molecular orbitals are represented as σ (sigma), π (pi), δ (delta) and the corresponding anti-bonding orbitals are called σ*, π* and δ*.

5. The electrons in the molecule are accommodated in the newly formed molecular orbitals. The filling of electrons in these orbitals follow Autbau’s Principle, Pauli’s exclusion principle and Hund’s rule as in the case of filling of electrons in the atomic orbitals.

6. Bond order gives the number of covalent bonds between the two combining atoms. The bond order of a molecule can be calculated using
the foLlowing equation:
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-183
Nb = Number of electrons in bonding molecular orbitals.

  4. Bond order Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 10 Chemical Bonding-186
  5. NO molecule has one unpaired electron, hence it is paramagnetic.

Question 13.
Explain about metallic bonding.
Answer:
1. The forces that keep the atoms of the metal so closely in a metallic crystal constitute what is known as metallic bond.

2. According to Drude and Lorentz, metallic crystal is an assemblage of positive ions immersed in a gas of free electrons. The free electrons are due to ionisation of the valence electrons of the atoms of the metal.

3. As the valence electrons of the atoms are freely shared by all the ions in the crystal, the metallic bonding is referred to as electronic bonding.

4. The electrostatic attraction between the metal ions and the free electrons yield a three dimensional close packed crystal with a large number of nearest metal ions. So metals have high density.

5. As the close packed structure contains many slip planes along which movement can occur during mechanical loading, metal acquires ductility.

6. As metal ion is surrounded by electron cloud in all directions, the metallic bonding has no and thermal conductivity. The metallic lustre is due to the reflection of light by the electron cloud.As the metallic bond is strong enough, the metal atoms are reluctant to break apart into a liquid or gas, so the metals have high melting and boiling points.

7. High thermal conductivity of metals is due. to thermal excitation of many electrons from the valence bond to the conduction band.

Question 14.
Explain about the bonding in metals by molecular orbital theory.
Answer:
1. According to molecular orbital theory the atomic orbitals of large number of atoms in a crystal overlap to form numerous bonding and anti-bonding molecular orbitals without any band gap.

2. The bonding molecular orbitals are completely filled with an electron pair in each and the anti-bonding molecular orbitals are empty.

3. Absence of band gap accounts for high electrical conductivity of metals.

4. High thermal conductivity is due to thermal excitation of many electrons from the valence band to the conduction band.

5. With an increase in temperature, the electrical conductivity decreases due to vigorous thermal motion of lattice ions that disrupts the uniform lattice structure. that is required for free motion of electrons within the crystal.

Common Errors

  1. The number of bonds formed by elements may go wrong.
  2. When writing Lewis structure, electrons may be written in an irregular way.
  3. Coordinate covalent bond should not be written as a line

Rectifications

  1. Always hydrogen and fluorine form 1 bond Oxygen 2 bonds, Nitrogen 3 bonds, Carbon 4 bonds
  2. When writing lewis structure, each atom should be surrounded by eight electrons in such a way as 4 pairs of electrons.
  3. Coordinate covalent bond should be written from donor atom to acceptor atom as an arrow mark Donor→ Acceptor

Question 33.
State and explain Henry’s law.
Answer:
Henry’s law:
This law states “that the partial pressure of the gas in vapour phase is directly proportional to the mole fraction (x) of the gaseous solute in the solution at low concentrations.”
Psolute ∝ xsolute in solution
Psolute = KH. xsolute in solution
xsolute = mole fraction of solute in the solution
KH = empirical constant.
Psolute = Vapour pressure of the solute (or) the partial pressure of the gas in vapour state. The value of KH depends on the nature of the gaseous solute and solvent.

Question 34.
State Raoult law and obtain expression for lowering of apour pressure when nonvolatile solute is dissolved in solvent.
Answer:
Raoult’s law:
This law states that “in the case of a solution of volatile liquids the partial vapour pressure of each component (A & B) of the solution is directly proportional to its mole fraction.
PA ∝ x A
when xA = 1,
then k = P°A
(P°A = vapour pressure of pure component)
PA = P°A . xa
PB = P°B . xb
when a non volatile is dissolved in pure water, the vapour pressure of the pure solvent will decrease. In such solution, the vapours pressure of the solution will depend only on the solvent molecules as the solute is non-volatile.
Psolution ∝ xA
Psolution = k . xA
xA = 1, k = P°solvent
solution = P°solvent – Psolution
Lowering of vapour pressure = P°solvent – Psolution
Relative lowering of vapour pressure = \(\frac { P° – P }{ P° }\) = xB
where xB = Mole fraction of solute.

Question 35.
What is molal depression constant? Does it depend on nature of the solute?
Answer:
Kf = molar freezing point depression constant or cryoscopic constant.
∆Tf = Kf . m,
where
∆Tf = depression in freezing point.
m = molality of the solution
Kf = cryoscopic constant
If m = I
∆Tf = Kf
i.e., cryoscopic constant is equal to the depression in freezing point for 1 molal solution cryoscopic constant depends on the molar concentration of the solute particles. Kf is directly proportional to the molal concentration of the solute particles.

Question 38.
You are provided with a solid ‘A’ and three solutions of A dissolved in water – one saturated, one unsaturated, and one super saturated. How would you determine each solution?
Answer:
1. Saturated solution:
When maximum amount of solute is dissolved in a solvent, any more addition of solute will result in precipitation at a given temperature and pressure. Such a solution is called a saturated solution.

2. Unsaturated solution:
When minimum amount of solute is dissolved in a solvent at a given temperature and pressure is called an unsaturated solution.

3. Super saturated solution:
It is a solution that holds more solute than it normally could in its saturated form.

Example:

  1. A saturated solution where the addition of more compound would not dissolve in the solution. 359 g of NaCI in 1 litre of watcr at 25°C.
  2. An unsaturated solution has the capacity to dissolve more of the compound. 36 g of NaCI in 1 litre of water at 25°C.
  3. A super saturated solution is the solution in which crystals can start growing. 500 g of NaCI in 1 litre of water at 25°C.

Question 39.
Explain the effect of pressure on the solubility.
Answer:
1. The change in pressure does not have any significant effect in the solubility of solids and liquids as they are not compressible. However the solubility of gases generally increases with increase of pressure.

2. According to Le – chatlier’s principle, the increase in pressure will shift the equilibrium in the direction which will reduce the pressure. Therefore, more number of gaseous molecules dissolves in the solvent.

3. If pressure increases, solubility of gas also increases.

Question 9.
Calculate the mole fractions of benzene and naphthalene in the vapour phase when an ideal liquid solution is formed by mixing 128 g of naphthalene with 39g of benzene. It is given that the vapour pressure of pure benzene is 50.71 mm Hg and the vapour pressure of pure naphthalene is 32.06 mm Hg at 300 K.
Solution:
P0pure benzene = 50.71 mm Hg
P0nepthalene = 32.06 mm Hg
Number of moles of benzene = \(\frac { 39 }{ 78 }\) = 0.5 mol
Number of moles of naphthalcne = \(\frac { 128 }{ 128 }\) =1 mol
Mole fraction of benzene = \(\frac { 0.5 }{ 1.5 }\) = 0.33
Mole fraction of naphthalene = 1 – 0.33 = 0.67
Partial vapour pressure of benzene =P0benzene x Mole fraction of benzene
= 50.71 x 0.33 = 16.73 mm Hg
Partial vapour pressure of naphthalene = 32.06 x 0.67 = 21.48mm Hg
Mole fraction of benzene in vapour phase = \(\frac { 16.73 }{ 16.73 + 21.48 }\) = \(\frac { 16.73 }{ 38.21 }\) = 0.44

Question 1.
What volume of 4M HCI and 2M HCI should be mixed to get 500 mL of 2.SM HCI?
Solution:
Let the volume of 4M HCl required to prepare 500 mL of 2.5 M HCI = x mL
Therefore, the required volume of 2M HCI = (500 – x) mL
We know from the equation x = \(\frac { 250 }{ 2 }\) = 125 mL
Hence, volume of 4M HCI required = 125 mL
Volume of 2M HCl required = (500 – 125) mL = 375 mL

Question 2.
0.24g of a gas dissolves in 1 L of water at 1.5 atm pressure. Calculate the amount of dissolved gas when the pressure is raised to 6.0 atm at constant temperature.
Solution:
Psolute = KH xsolute in solution
At pressure 1.5 atm, p1 = KH x1 ………..(1)
At pressure 6.0 atm, p2 = KHx2 …………..(2)
Dividing equation (1) by (2)
Weget
\(\frac { { P }_{ 1 } }{ { P }_{ 2 } }\) = \(\frac { { x }_{ 1 } }{ { x }_{ 2 } }\)
\(\frac { 1.5 }{ 6.0 }\) = \(\frac { { 0.24 } }{ { x }_{ 2 } }\)
Therefore

Answer:
The solubility of a substance is defined as the amount of the solute that can be dissolved in loo g of the solvent at a given temperature to form a saturated solution.

Question 16.
Ammonia is more soluble than oxygen in water. Why?
Answer:
Ammonia forms hydrogen bonding with water molecules, this intermolecular bonds arc very strong and thus the ammonia is more soluble in water. Ammonia is strongly interact with water to form ammonium hydroxide. But oxygen is more electronegative it is not able to interact with water more. So NH3 is more soluble than O2 in water.

Question 17.
Solubility of a solid solute in a liquid solvent increases with increase in temperature. Justify this statement.
Answer:
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.

Question 18.
Dissolution of ammonium nitrate increases with increase in temperature. Why?
Answer:
The dissolution process of ammonium nitrate is endothermic. So the solubility increases with increase in temperature.

Question 19.
What is the relationship between the solubility of eerie sulphate with temperature?
Answer:
The dissolution of eerie sulphate is exothermic and the solubility decreases with the increase in temperature.

Question 20.
Why in the dissolution of CaCl2, the solubilit increases moderately with high temperature?
Answer:
Even though the dissolution of CaCI2, is cxothcrmic, the soluhility increases moderately with increase in temperature. Here the entropy factor plays a significant role in deciding the position of equilibrium.

Question 21.
Why the carbonated drinks are stored in pressurized container?
Answer:
1. The carbonated beverages contain CO2 dissolved in them. To dissolve the CO2 in these drinks, CO2 gas is bubbled through them under high pressure.

2. These containers are sealed to maintain the pressure. When we open these containers at atmospheric pressure, the pressure of the CO2 drops to the atmospheric pressure level and hence bubbles of CO2 rapidly escape from the solution and show effervescence.

Question 22.
Define

  1. Evaporation
  2. Condensation.

Answer:
1. Evaporation:
If the kinetic energy of molecules in the liquid state overcomes the intermolecular force of attraction between them, then the molecules will escape from the liquid state. This process in called evaporation.

2. Condensation:
The vapour molecules are in random motion during which they collide with each other and also with the walls of the container. As the collision is inelastic, they lose their energy and as a result the vapour returns back to liquid state. This process is called as condensation.

Question 23.

Ptotal = PA + PB

Question 24.
Give the reason behind the lowering of vapour pressure in the dissolution of NaCl in water?
Answer:
NaCI is a non volatile solute. When a non volatile solute is dissolved in pure solvent, the vapour pressure of pure solvent will decrease. In such solution, vapour pressure of the solution will depend only on the solvent molecules as the solute is non-volatile.

Question 25.
What are ideal solution? Give example.
Answer:
An ideal solution is a solution in which each component i.e., the solute as well as the solvent obeys the Raoult’s law over the entire range of concentration.

Question 26.
What are non-ideal solution? Give example.
Answer:

  1. The solutions which do not obey Raoult’s law over the entire range of concentration are called non-ideal solutions.
  2. The deviation of the non-ideal solution from the Raoult’s law may be positive (or) negative.
  3. Example, Ethyl alcohol and cyclohexane.

Question 27.
What are colligative properties? Give example.
Answer:
The properties which do not depend on the chemical nature of the solute but depends only on the number of solute particles present in the solution are called colligative properties. e.g.,

  1. Relative lowering of vapour pressure – \(\frac { P° – P}{ P° }\)
  2. Osmotic pressure – π
  3. Elevation of boiling point – ∆Tb
  4. Depression in freezing point – ∆Tf

Question 28.
What is meant by elevation of boiling point?
Answer:
1. The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which its vapour pressure becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure.

2. When a non-volatile solute is added to pure solvent at its boiling point, the vapour pressure of the solution is lowered below 1 atm. To bring the vapour pressure again to 1 atm, the temperature of the solution has to be increased.

3. As a result, the solution boils at a higher temperature (Tb) then the boiling point of pure solvent (Tb°). This increase in the boiling point is known as elevation of boiling point.

Question 29.

1. using the following relationship

  • αdissociation = \(\frac { i – 1 }{ n – 1 }\)
  • αassociation = \(\frac { (1 – i)n }{ n – 1 }\)

where n = number of solute particles

Question 34.
Give an example of a solid solution ¡n which the solute is a gas.
Answer:
Solution of hydrogen in palladium.

Question 35.
What role does the molecular interaction play in solution of alcohol and water?
Answer:
There is strong hydrogen bonding in alcohol molecules as well as water molecules. The intermolecular forces both in alcohol and water are H-bonds. When alcohol and water are mixed,

they form solution because of formation of H-bonds between alcohol and H2O molecules hut these interactions are weaker and less extensive than those in pure water. Hence, they show positive deviation from ideal behaviour.

Question 36.
Why do gases always tend to be less soluble in liquids as the temperature is raised?
Answer:
Mostly dissolution of gases in liquid is an exothermic process. it is because the fact that this process involves decrease of entropy. Thus, increase of temperature tends to push the equilibrium towards backward direction as a result of which solubility of the gas decrease with rise in temperature.
(Gas + Solvent \(\rightleftharpoons\) Solution + Heat)

Question 37.
Why is the freezing point depression of 0.1 M NaCl solution nearly twice that of 0.1M glucose solution?
Answer:
NaCl is an electrolyte and it dissociates completely whereas glucose being a non-electrolyte does not dissociate. Hence, the number of particles in 0.1 M NaCl solution is nearly double for NaCI solution than that for glucose solution of same molarity.

Therefore depression in freezing point being a colligative property ¡s nearly twice for NaCl solution than that for glucose solution of same molarity.

Question 38.
Why a person suffering from high blood pressure is advised to take minimum quantity of common salt?
Answer:
Osmotic pressure is directly proportional to the concentration of solutes. Our body fluid contains a number of solutes. On taking large amount of salt, ions entering into the body fluid thereby raises the concentration of solutes. As a result, osmotic pressure increases which may rupture the blood cells.

1. In the case of gaseous solute in liquid solvent, the solubility decreases with increase in temperature.

2. When a gaseous solute dissolves in a liquid solvent, its molecules interact with solvent molecules with weak inter molecular forces when the temperature increases, the average. kinetic energy of the molecules present in the solution also increases.

3. The increase in kinetic energy breaks (he weak inter molecular forces between the gaseous solute and liquid solvent with results in the release of the dissolved gas molecules to gaseous state.

4. The dissolution of most of the gases in Liquid solvents is an endothermic process, the increase in temperature decreases the dissolution of gaseous molecules.

Question 8.
Give reason why aquatic species are less sustained in hot water?
Answer:
There will be decrease in solubility of gases in solution with increase in temperature. During summer, in hot water rivers, due to high temperature. the availability of dissolved oxygen decreases. So the aquatic species are less sustained in hot water.

Question 9.
Deep – sea divers use air diluted with helium gas in their tanks. Why? (or) Justify this statement.
Answer:
1. Deep-sea divers carry a compressed air tank for breathing at high pressure under water. This air tank contains nitrogen and oxygen which are not very soluble in blood and other body fluids at normal pressure.

2. As the pressure at the depth is far greater than the surface atmospheric pressure, more nitrogen dissolves in the blood when the diver breathes from tank.

3. When the divers ascends to the surface, the pressure decreases, the dissolved nitrogen comes out of the blood quickly forming bubbles in the blood stream.

These bubbles restrict blood flow, affect the transmission of nerve impulses and can even burst the capillaries or block them. This condition is called “the bends” which are painful and dangerous to life.

4. To avoid such dangerous condition they use air diluted with helium gas (11.7 % helium, 56.2% nitrogen and 32.1% oxygen) of lower solubility of helium in the blood than nitrogen.

1. The vapour pressure of pure toluene and pure benzene are 22.3 and 74.7 mm Hg respectively.

2. The graph shows the partial vapour pressure of pure components increases linearly with the increase of the mole fraction of the respective components. The total pressure at any composition of the solute and solvent is given by the straight line.

3. Psolution = P0toluene + xbenzene (P0benzene – P0toluene)

Question 12.

Answer:
Psolution ∝ xA by Raoult’s law. where xA is the mole fraction of the solvent.
Psolution = k . xA

where
xB = mole fraction of the solute
xA + xB = 1
xB = 1 – xA
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-79

Question 13.
How would you compare Raoult’s law and Henry’s law.
Answer:
1. According to Raou It’s law, for a solution containing a non volatile solute.
Psolution = P0solvent . xsolute

2. According to henry’s law, Psolution = KH . xsolute in solution

3. The difference between the above two laws is the proportionality constant P° (Raoult’s law) and KH (Heniys law).

4. henry’s law is applicable to solution containing gaseous solute in liquid solvent, while Raoult’s law is applicable to non volatile solid solute in the liquid solvent.

5. If the solute is non volatile then the Henry’s law constant will become equal to the vapour pressure of pure solvent Po. thus Raoult’s law becomes a special case of Henry’s law.

6. For very dilute solutions, the solvent obeys Raoult’s law and the solute obeys Henry’s law.

Question 14.
What are the necessary conditions for an ideal solution? Give two example. For an ideal solution
1. There is no change in volume on mixing two components (solute and solvent)
∆Vmixing = O

2. There is no exchange of heat when the solute is dissolved in solvent (∆Hmixing = 0)

3. Escaping tendency of the solute and the solvent present in it should be same as in pure liquids.

4. Examples – For ideal solution: Benzene and toluene, n-Hexane and n-Heptane, ethyl bromide and ethyl iodide, chlorobenzene and bromo benzene.

Question 15.
Explain how non-ideal solutions shows positive deviation from Raoult’s law.
Answer:

  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 alcohol and water-water interaction).
  3. This results in the increased evaporation of both componeins 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 OCCSS is endothermic i.e., (∆Hmixing > O) and there will be a slight increase in volume (∆Vmixing > O)

Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-80

Question 16.
Explain with suitable example about negative deviation from law.
Answer:
1. Let us consider a solution of phenol and aniline. Both phenol and aniline form hydrogen bonding interactions amongst themselves.

2. When mixed with aniline, the phenol molecule forms hydrogen bonding interactions with aniline, which are Stronger than the hydrogen bonds formed amongst themselves.

3. Formation of new hydrogen bonds considerably reduce the escaping tendency of phenol and aniline from the solution.

4. Asa result, the vapour pressure of the solution is less and there is a slight decrease in volume (∆Vmixing < 0) on mixing.

5. During this process evolution of heat takes place i.e., ∆Vmixing < 0 (exothermic).

6. Examples – Acetone + Chloroform, Chloroform + Diethyl ether
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-81

Question 17.
The vapour pressure of a solution containing a non volatile, non-electrolyte solute is always lower than that of pure solvent. Give reason.
Answer:
1. The vapour pressure of a solution (P) containing flOfl volatile solute is lower than that of pure solvent (P°).

2. Consider a closed system is which a pure solvent is in equilibrium with its vapour. At equilibrium the molar Gibbs free energies of solvent in a liquid and gaseous phase are equal (∆G = O).

3. When a solute is added to this solvent the dissolution takes place and its free energy (G) decreases due to increase in entropy.

4. In order to maintain the equilibrium, the free energy of the vapour phase must also decrease.

5. At a given temperature, the only way to lower the free energy of the vapour is to reduce its pressure.

6. Thus the vapour pressure of the solution must decrease to maintain the equilibrium.

Question 18.
Show that relative lowering of vapour pressure is a colligative property.
Answer:
According to Raoult’s law,
Psolution xA, where xA = mole fraction of solvent.
Psolution = k . xA, where k = proportionality constant
For a pure solvent,
Vapour pressure = P°, xA = 1
solution = k x 1 = k
Substituting P°solvent in Raoult’s law
Psolution = P°solvent . xA
Relative lowenng of vapour pressure
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-82
substituting Psolution as P°xB in the above eaquation
Relative lowering of vapour pressure
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-83
xA + xB = I
where xB = mole fraction of solute. It is clear that the relative lowering of vapour pressure depends only on the mole fraction ofthe solute (xB) and is independent of its nature. Therefore relative lowering of vapour pressure is a colligative property.

Question 19.
Explain why boiling point of solution is greater than that of pure solvent?
Answer:
When a non volatile solute is added to a pure solvent at its boiling point, the vapour pressure of the solution is lowered below 1 atm. To bring the vapour pressure again to I atm the temperature of the solution has to be increased.

As a result, the solution boils at a higher temperature (Tb) than the boiling point of the pure solvent (T°b). This increase in the boiling point is known as elevation of boiling point ∆Tb = Tb – T°b.

Question 20.
Graphically prove that Tb ¡s greater than T°b.
Answer:
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-84
1. The vapour pressure of the solution increases with increase in temperature. The variation of vapour pressure with respect to temperature of pure water is given by the curve – A.

2. At 100°C, the vapour pressure of water is equal to I atm. Hence, the boiling point of water is 100°C (T°b).

3. When a solute is added to water, the vapour pressure of the resultant solution is lowered. The variation of vapour pressure with respect to temperature for the solution is given by curve-B.

4. From the graph, it is evident that the vapour pressure of the solution is equal to 1 atm. pressure at the temperature Tb which is greater than T°b. The difference between these two temperatures (Tb – T°b) gives the elevation of boiling point.
∆Tb = Tbb.

Question 21.
Derive the relationship between the elevation of boiling point and molar mass of non volatile solute.
Answer:
The elevation of boiling point ∆Tb = Tbb.
∆Tb is directly proportional to the concentration of the solute particles.

1. Freezing point is defined as the temperature at which the solid and the liquid states of the substances have the same vapour pressure.

2. When a non volatile solute is added to water at its freezing point, the freezing point of water is lowered from 0°C. The lowering of freezing point of the solvent when a solute is added is called depression in freezing point AT1..

3. ∆Tf = T0f – Tf

Question 23.
Define

  1. cryoscopic constant
  2. ebullioscopic constant

Answer:

1. ∆Tf = kf. m, where kf = cryoscopic constant. If m = 1. then ATf = kf
kf is defined as depression in freezing point for 1 molal solution.

2. ∆Tf = kf. m where kf ebullioscopic constant. If m = 1 then ATf = kf
kb is defined as elevation in boiling point for 1 molal solution.

Question 24.
What are the significances of osmotic pressure over other colligative properties ?
Answer:
1. Unlike elevation of boiling point and the depression in freezing point, the magnitude of osmotic pressure is large.

2. The osmotic pressure can be measured at room temperature enables to determine the molecular mass of biomolecules which are unstable at higher temperature.

3. Even for a very dilute solution, the osmotic pressure is large.

Question 25.
What is haemolysis ? intravenous fluid are isotonic to blood?
Answer:
1. The osmotic pressure of the blood cells is approximately equal to 7 atm at 37°C.

2. The intravenous injections should have saine osmotic pressure as that of the blood (isotonic vith blood).

3. If the intravenous solutions are too dilute that is hypotonie, the solvent from outside of the cells flow into the cell to normalise the osmotic pressure and this process is called haernolysis causes the cells to burst.

4. On the other hand, if the solution is too concentrated, that is hypertonic. the solvent molecules will flow out of the cells,which causes the cells to shrink and die.

5. For this reason, the intravenous fluids are prepared such that they are isotonic to blood (0.9% mass/volume sodium chloride solution).

Question 26.
Explain reverse osmosis.
Answer:
1. The pure water moves through the semipermeable membrane to the NaCl solution due to osmosis.

2. This process can be reversed by applying pressure greater than the osmotic pressure to the solution side. Now the pure water moves from the solution side to the solvent side and this process is called reverse osmosis.

3. Reverse osmosis can be defined as a process in which a solvent passes through a semipermeable membrane in the opposite direction of osmosis, when subjected to a hydrostatic pressure greater than the osmotic pressure.

Question 27.
Explain about the application of reverse osmosis in water purification.
Answer:
1. Reverse osmosis is used in the desalination of sea water and also in the purification of drinking water.

2. When a pressure higher than the osmotic pressure is applied on the solution side (sea water) the water molecules moves from solution side to the solvent side through semi permeable membrane (opposite to osmotic flow). The pure water can be collected.

Question 28.
Acetic acid is found to have molar mass as 120 g mol-1. Prove it.
Answer:
1. In certain solvent, solute molecules associate to form a dimer. This reduces the total number of molecules formed in solution and as a result the calculated molar mass will be higher than the actual molar mass.

2. Acetic acid in benzene exist as a dimer
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-88

3. The molar mass of acetic acid calculate using colligative properties is found to be around 120 g mol-1 is two times of the actual molar mass 60 g mol-1.

Question 29.
Depression in freezing point of NaCI is twice that of in urea. Why?
Answer:
1. The electrolyte NaCI dissociates completely into its constituent ions in their aqueous solution. This causes an increase in the total number olparticles present in the solution.

2. When we dissolve 1 mole of NaCI in water it. dissociates and gives 1 mole of Na+ and 1 mole of Cl. Hence the solution will have 2 moles of particles.

But when we dissolve 1 mole of urea (non electrolyte) in water it appears as 1 mole only. So the colligative property value would be double in NaCl than in urea.

Question 31.
Differentiate between ideal solution and non-ideal solution.
Answer:
Ideal solution
An ideal solution is a solution in which each component obeys the Raoult’s law over the entire range of concentration.
For an ideal solution,

  • ∆Hmixing = 0
  • ∆Vmixing = 0

Example: Benzenc and toluene n – Hexane and n – Heptane

Non-ideal solution
The solutions which do not obey Raoult’slaw over the entire range of concentrationsare called non-ideal solution.
For a non-ideal solution.

  • ∆Hmixing \(\quad \neq\) 0
  • ∆Vmixing \(\quad \neq\) 0

Example: Ethyl alcohol and Cyclo hexane, Benzene and acetone .

Question 32.
Explain the factors when i = 1, i < 1 and i >1 ?
Answer:
1. For a solute that does not dissociate or associate the vant’s hoff factor is equal to 1 (i = 1) and the molar mass will be close to the actual molar mass.

2. For that solute that associate to form higher oligomers in solution, the van’t Hoff factor will be less than 1 (i < 1) and the observed molar mass will be greater than the actual molar mass.

3. For solutes that dissociates into their constituent ions the van’t Hoff factor will be more than one (i > 1) and the observed molar mass will be less than the normal molar mass.

Question 33.

Question 34.
What type of non – idealities are exhibited by cyclohexane – ethanol and acetone – chloroform mixture? Give reason for your answer.
Answer:
Ideal solutions are those which obey Raoult’s law over extreme range of concentration. Ideal solutions have another important properties:

  • ∆Hmix = 0
  • ∆Vmix = 0

Here-forces of attraction between A – A. B – B and A – B are of the same order. Non ideal solutions do not obey Raoult’s law over the entire range of concentration.
∆Hmixing\(\quad \neq\) 0 and ∆Vmixing\(\quad \neq\) 0

Cyclohexane – ethanol mixture shows positive deviation from Raoult’s law because forces of attraction between cyclohexane and ethanol are less than in between pure cyclohexane as well as pure ethanol.

Acetone-Chloroform mixture shows negative deviation from Raoults law because forces of attraction between acetone and chloroform are higher than that in between pure acetone and pure chloroform molecules.

  • Mixture of He and O2 are used by deep sea divers because he is less soluble than nitrogen.

3. 0.1 M NaCI, because it dissociates in solution and furnishes greater number of particles per unit volume while glucose being a non-electrolyte does not dissociate.

Question 38.
Water is a universal solvent. But alcohol also dissolves most of the substances soluble in water and also many more. Boiling point of water is 100°C and that of alcohol is 80°C. The specific heat of water is much higher than the specific heat of alcohol.

  1. List out three possible differences if instead of water as the liquid ¡n our body we had alcohol.
  2. What value can you derive from this special property of water and its innumerable uses in sustaining life on earth?

Answer:
1.
(i) Even a small rise in temperature in the surroundings will raise the temperature of’ the body because the specific heat of alcoholis much less than the specific heat of water. So, in order to cool the body, more sweating will take place.

(ii) As there is less H bonding in alcohol, it will gel evaporated faster. The alcohol will be evaporated at such a faster rate that the liquid has to be ingested all the time.

(iii) Ice which floats on water helps aquatic life to exist even in winter as water insulates the heat from liquid below it to go back to the surroundings. Solid alcohol does not have such special properties.

2. Praise is to the almighty that has so thoughtfully given such special properties to water and made it a liquid that could sustain life on earth.

Question 39.
State Henry’s law for solubility of a gas in a liquid. Explain the significance of Henry’s law constant (KH). At the same temperature, hydrogen is more soluble in water than helium. Which of theni will have a higher value of KH and Why?
Answer:
Henry’s law states that the solubility of a gas in liquid at a given temperature is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas.
P = KH x
where P is the pressure of the gas, x is the mole fraction of the gas in the solution and KH is the Henry’s law constant. KH is a function of the nature oIgas.

Higher the value of KH at a given temperature. lower is the solubility of the gas in the liquid. As helium is less soluble in water, so it has a higher value of KH than hydrogen.

Henry’s Law:
As dissolution of agar in liquid is an exothermic process, therefore, the solubility should decrease with in increase in temperature.

Question 40.
What is meant by positive and negative deviations from Raoult’s law and how is the sign ∆Hmix of related to positive and negative deviations from Raoult’s law?
Answer:
Negative deviations:
In these type of deviations, the partial vapour pressure of each component A and B of solution is higher than the vapour pressure calculated from Raoult’s law. For example -Water and ethanol, chloroform and water.

Positive deviations:
In case of positive deviation A – B interactions are weaker than those between A – A or B – B. This means that in such solutions molecules or A (or B) will find it easier to positive deviation from Raoult’s law.

2. Types and examples of solution.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-93

Question 2.

  1. Define Solubility
  2. Explain about the factors that influences the solubility

Answer:

1. The solubility of a substance at a given temperature is defined as the amount of the solute that can be dissolved in 100 g of the solvent at a given temperature to form a saturated solution.

2. Factors influencing solubility
(a) Nature of solute and solvent: Sodium chloride, an ionic compound readily dissolves in polar solvent such as water but it does not dissolve in non polar solvent such as benzene. Most of the organic compounds dissolve in organic solvent and do not dissolve in water.

(b) Effect of temperature: Generally, the solubility of a solid solute in a liquid solvent increases with increase in temperature. The dissolution of NaCl does not vary as the maximum solubility is achieved at normal temperature.

The dissolution of ammonium nitrate is endothermic, the solubility increases with increase in temperature. The dissolution of eerie sulphate is exothermic and the solubility decreases with increase of temperature. In the case of gaseous solute in liquid solvent the soluhility decreases with increase in temperature.

Effect of pressure:
Generally the change in pressure does not have any significant effect in the solubility of solids and l?quids as they are not compressible. However, the solubility of gases generally increases with increase of pressure.

Question 3.
Explain about the factors that are responsible for deviation from Raoult’s law.
Answer:
1. Solute-solvent interactions:
For an ideal solution, the interaction between the solvent molecules (A – A), the solute molecules (B – B) and between the solvent and solute molecules (A – B) are expected to be similar. if these interactions are dissimilar, there will be a deviation from ideal behaviour.

2. Dissolution of solute:
When a solute present in a solution dissociates to give its constituent ions, the resultant ions interact strongly with the solvent and causes deviation from Raoult’s law. e.g., KCI in water deviates from ideal behaviour due to dissociation as K+ and Cl ion which form strong ion-dipole interaction with water molecules.

3. Association of solute:
Association of solute molecules can also cause deviation from ideal behaviour. For example in solution acetic acid exists as a dimer by forming intermolecular hydrogen bonds and hence deviates from Raoult’s law.

4. Temperature:
An increase in temperature of the solution increases the average kinetic energy of the molecules present in the solution which cause decrease in the attractive force between them. As result, the solution deviates from Raoult’s law.

5. Pressure:
At high pressure, the molecules tends to stay close to each other and therefore there will be an increase in their intermolecular attraction. Thus a solution deviates from Raoult’s law at high pressure.

6. Concentration:
When the concentration is increased by adding solute, the solvent-solute interaction becomes significant. This causes deviation from Raoult’s law.

Question 4.
How would you determine molar mass from relative lowering of vapour pressure.
Answer:
1. The measurement of relative lowering of vapour pressure can be used to determine the molar mass of a non-volatile solute.

2. A known mass of the solute is dissolved in a known quantity of solvent. The relative lowering of vapour pressure is measured experimentally.

3. According to Raoult’s law, the relative lowering of vapour pressure is
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-94
WA = weight of solvent
WB = weight of solute
MA = Molar mass of solvent
MB = molar mass of solute
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-95
where nA = number of moles of solvent
nB = number of moles of solute.
For dilute solution, nA > > nB, nA + nB = nA
Then, Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-96
Number of moles of solvent and solute arc
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-97
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-98
From the above equation, molar mass of the solute MB can be calculated using the known values of WA, WB, MA and the measured relative lowering of vapour pressure.

Question 5.
How would you determine the molar mass from osmotic pressure.
Answer:
According to van’t Hoff equation
π = CRT
C = \(\frac { n }{ V }\)
Here n = number of moles of solute dissolved in ‘V’ litre of the solution.
π = \(\frac { n }{ V }\) . RT = πV = nRT
If the solution is prepared by dissolving WB of the non-volatile solute in WA g of solvent, then the number of moles of ‘n’ is
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-99
where
MB = molar mass of the solute
Substituting n value, we get
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-100
From the above equation, we can calculate the molar mass of the solute.

Question 6.
What are ideal and non-ideal solutions? Explain with suitable diagram the behaviour of ideal solutions.
Answer:
Ideal solutions:
The solutions which obey Raoult’s law over the entire range of concentration are known as ideal solutions. Ideal solutions are formed by mixing the two components which are identical in molecular size, in structure and have almost identical intermolecular forces.

Examples:

  1. Benzene and toluene
  2. n – Hexane and n-Heptane
  3. Chiorobenzene and bromobenzene.

Characteristics:

  1. They must obey Raoult’s law.
  2. ∆H mixing should be zero.
  3. ∆W mixing should be zero, i.e. volume change on mixing is zero.

Non – ideal solutions:
The solutions which do not obey Raoult’s law are called non-ideal solutions. In case of non – ideal solutions there is a change in volume and heat energy when the two components are mixed.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-101

Characteristics:

  1. They does not obey Raoult’s law.
  2. ∆Vmix \(\quad \neq\) 0
  3. ∆Hmix \(\quad \neq\) 0

Behaviour of Ideal Solutions:
A plot of P1 or P2 versus the mole fraction x1 and x2 for an ideal solution gives a linear plot. These Lines (I and II)pass through the points and respectively whenx1 and x2 is equal to unity.

Similarly the plot (Line III) of Ptotal versus x2 is also linear. The minimum value of is P1° and the maximum value is P2°, assuming that component 1 is less volatile than component 2, i.e. P1° < P20.

Question 7.
Explain with a suitable diagram and appropriate example, why some non-ideal solution shows positive deviation from Raou It’s law.
Answer:
Some non-ideal solutions show positive deviation from Raoult’s law. Consider a solution of two components A and B.  If A-B interactions in the solution are weaker than the A – A and B – B interactions in the two liquids forming the solution, then the escaping tendency of molecules A and B from the solution become more than in pure liquids.

The total vapour pressure will be greater than the corresponding vapour pressure as expected on the basis of Raoult’s law. This type of behaviour of solution is called positive deviation from Raoult’s law. The boiling point of such solutions are lowered. Mathematically,
PA < PA0 xA
PB < PB0 xB
The total vapour pressure is less than PA + PB
P < PA + PB
P < P°A x xA + P°B xB
Hence
P1 = PA
P2 = PB
Examples of solutions showing positive deviations

  1. Ethyl alcohol and water
  2. Benzene and acetone
  3. Ethyl alcohol and cyclohcxanc
  4. Carbon tetrachloride and chloroform.

Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-102

Question 8.

  1. What is Osmotic pressure and how is it related to the molecular mass of a non volatile substances?
  2. What advantage the osmotic pressure method has over the elevation of boiling point method for determining the molecular mass?

Answer:
1. Osmotic pressure:
It is the pressure of the solution column that can prevent the entry of solvent molecules through a semi-permeable membrane, when the solution and the solvent are separated by the same. It is denoted by π. Its unit is mm 11g or atmosphere.
We know that, π = CRT
where π is the osmotic pressure and R is the gas constant
π = \(\frac { { n }_{ 2 } }{ V }\) RT
where V is volume of solution per litre containing n2 moles of solute.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 9 Solutions-103
By the above relation molar mass of solute can be calculated.

2. The osmotic pressure method has the advantage over other methods as pressure measurement is around the room temperature and molarity of the solution is used instead of molality.

The technique of osmotic pressure for determination of molar mass of solutes is particularly useful for biomolecules as they are generally not stable at higher temperature and polymers have poor solubility.

Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Physical and Chemical Equilibrium Short Answer Questions

Question 26.
If there is no change in concentration, why is the equilibrium state considered dynamic?
Answer:
At chemical equilibrium the rate of two opposing reactions are equal and the concentration of. reactants and products do not change with time. This condition is not static and is dynamic, because both the forward and reverse reactions are still occurring with the same rate and no macroscopic change is observed. So chemical equilibrium is in a state of dynamic equilibrium.

Question 27.
For a given reaction at a particular temperature, the equilibrium constant has constant value. Is the value of Q also constant? Explain.
Answer:
In the chemical reaction, as the reaction proceeds, there is a continuous change in the concentration of reactants and products and also the Q value until the reaction reaches the equilibrium. So even at particular temperature, Q is not constant. Even once the equilibrium is achieved then change in concentration of reactants or products, pressure, volume will change the value of Q.

Question 28.
What is the relation between Kp and KC. Give one example for which Kp is equal to KC.
Answer:
The relation between Kp and Kc is Kp = KC (RT)∆ng
Kp = equilibrium constant is terms of partial pressure.
Kc = equilibrium constant is terms of concentration.
R = gas constant
T = Temperature.
∆ng = Difference between the sum of the number of moles of products and the sum of number of moles of reactants in the gas phase. When ∆ng = 0
Kp = KC(RT)0 = KC i.e., Kp = KC
Example: H2(g) + I2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2HI(g)
∆ng = 2 – 2 = 0
∴ Kp = KC for the synthesis of HI.

Question 29.
For a gaseous homogeneous reaction at equilibrium, number of moles of products are greater than the number of moles of reactants. Is KC is larger or smaller than Kp ?
Answer:
For a homogeneous reaction at equilibrium, number of moles of products (np) are greater than the number of moles of reactants (nR) then ∆ng = + ve
np > nR
∆ng = + ve
If ∆ng is ve, Kp value is greater than KC
Kp = KC. (RT)+ve
Kp > KC
Example: PCl5 \(\rightleftharpoons\) PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)
2 – 1 = 1
Kp = KC (RT)1
Kp > KC

Question 30.
When the numerical value of the reaction quotient (Q) is greater than the equilibrium constant (K), in which direction does the reaction proceed to reach equilibrium?
Answer:
When Q > KC the reaction will proceed in the reverse direction, i.e, formation of reactants.

Question 31.

Answer:
The following molecular scenes represent different reaction mixture
(A – dark grey, B – light grey)
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-145

  1. Calculate the equilibrium constant Kp and KC
  2. For the reaction mixture represented by scene (x), (y) the reaction proceed in which directions?
  3. What is the effect of increase in pressure for the mixture at equilibrium?

Answer:
1. Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-146
At equilibrium
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-147

2.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-148

3.  Since ∆ng = 2 – 2 = 0, thus, pressure has no effect. So by increasing the pressure, equilibrium will not be affected.

Question 32.
State Le – Chatelier principle.
Answer:
It states that If a system at equilibrium is disturbed, then the system shifts itself in a direction that nullifies the effect of that disturbance.

Question 33.
Consider the following reactions

  1. H2(g) + l2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2HI(g)
  2. CaCO3(s) \(\rightleftharpoons\) CaO(s) + CO2(g)
  3. S(s) + 3F2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) SF6(g)

In each of the above reaction find out whether you have to increase (or) decrease the volume to increase the yield of the product.
Answer:
1.  H2(g) + l2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2HI(g)
In the above equilibrium reaction, volume of gaseous molecules is equal on both sides. So increase or decrease the volume will not affect the equilibrium and there will be no change in the yield of product.

2. Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-149
Volume is greater in product side. By decreasing the pressure, volume will increase thus, to get more of product CO2, the pressure should be decreased or volume should be increased.

3. Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-150
Volume is lesser in product side. So by increasing the pressure, equilibrium shifts to the product side.

Question 34.
State law of mass action.
Answer:
The law states that “At any instant, the rate of chemical reaction at a given temperature is directly proportional to the product of the active masses of the reactants at that instant.”

Question 35.
Explain how will you predict the direction of an equilibrium reaction.
Answer:

  1. A large value of KC indicates that the reaction reaches equilibrium with high product yield.
  2. A low value of KC indicate that the reaction reaches equilibrium with low product formed.
  3. In general, if the K is greater than I the reaction proceeds nearly to completion. If is less than 10-3, the reaction rarely proceeds.
  4. If K < 10-3, reverse reaction is favoured. If Kc > 103, forward reaction is favoured.

Answer:
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-155

Question 38.
What is the effect of added inert gas on the reaction at equilibrium at constant volume?
Answer:
When an inert gas (i.e., a gas which does not react with any other species involved in equilibrium) is added to an equilibrium system at constant volume, the total number of moles. of gases present in the container increases, that is, the total pressure of gases increases, the partial pressure of the reactants and the products are unchanged. Hence at constant volume, addition of inert gas has no effect on equilibrium.

Question 39.
Derive the relation between Kp and KC.
Answer:
Consider a general reaction in which all reactants and products are ideal gases.
x A + y B \(\rightleftharpoons\)  lC+mD
The equilibrium constant KC is
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-156
The ideal gas equation is
PV = nRT or P = \(\frac { n }{ V }\) RT
Since,
Active mass = molar concentration = \(\frac { n }{ V }\)
P = Active mass x RT
Based on the above expression, the partial pressure of the reacants and products can be expressed as
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-157
On substitution in equation (2),
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-158
By comparing equation (1) and (4), we get
Kp = KC (RT) ∆ng
where ∆ng is the difference between the sum of number of moles of products and the sum of number of moles of reactants in the gas phase.
(i) If ∆ng = 0, Kb = KC(RT)0
Kp = KC
Example: H2(g) + I2 \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2HI(g)

(ii) where
∆ng = +Ve
Kp = KC (RT)+ve
Kp = KC
Example: 2NH3(g) N2(g) + 3H2(g)

(iii) When
∆ng = -Ve
Kp = KC (RT)-ve
Kp < KC
Example: 2SO2(g) +O2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2SO3(g)

Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-74
Answer:

  1. As the concentration of the products increases, more products collide and react in the backward direction.
  2. As the rate of the reverse reaction increases, the rate of the forward reaction decreases.
  3. Eventually the rate of both reactions becomes equal.

Diagram-II
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-75

  1. Concentration of reactants decreases with time initially and concentration of products increases with time.
  2. After sometime, equilibrium is reached i.e., concentration of reactants and products remains constant.

Question 8.
What are the types of chemical equilibrium? Explain with suitable example.
Answer:

  1. Chemical equilibrium is of two types:
    • Homogeneous equilibrium
    • Heterogeneous equilibrium.
  2. In a homogeneous equilibrium, all the reactants and products are in the same phase
    H2(g) + I2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2HI(g)
    In the above equilibrium H2, I2 and HI are in the gaseous state.
  3. If the reactants and products of a reaction in equilibrium are in different phases, then it is calLed heterogeneous equilibrium.
    e.g., CaCO3(s) \(\rightleftharpoons\) CaO(s) + CO3(g)

Question 9.
Write the value of K and K equation for CaCO3(s) \(\rightleftharpoons\) CaO(s) + CO2(g)
Answer:
A pure solid always has the same concentration at a given temperature, as it does not expand to fill its container i.e., it has the same no. of moles of its volume. Therefore the concentration of pure solid is a constant. So the expression if K and K is K [CO2], K = PCO2

Question 10.
Consider the following equilibrium reaction and relate their equilibrium constants

  1. N2 + O2 \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2NO, K1
  2. 2NO + O2 \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2NO2, K1
  3. N2 + 2O2 \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2NO2, K3

Answer:
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-77

Question 11.
Explain the effect of concentration in an equilibrium state?
Answer:
At equilibrium, the concentration of the reactants and products does not change. The addition of more reactants or products to the reacting system at equilibrium causes an increase in their respective concentration.

According to Le – Chatelier’s principle, the effect of increase in concentration of a substance is to shift the equilibrium in a direction that consumes the added substance. For example,
H2(g) + I2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2HI(g)

The addition of H2 or I2 to the equilibrium mixture, disturbs the equilibrium. In order to minimize the stress, the system shifts the reaction in a direction where H2 and I2 are consumed i.e., formation of additional HI would balance the effect of added reactant.

Hence the equilibrium shifts to the right (forward direction). i.e., the equilibrium is re – established. Similarly, removal of HI (Product) also favours forward reaction. If HI is added to the equilibrium mixture, the concentration of HI is increased and system proceeds in the reverse direction to nullify the effect of increase in concentration of HI.

Question 12.
Consider the reaction, N2(g) + 3H2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2NH3(g). Explain the effect of pressure on this equilibrium reaction.
Answer:
N2(g) + 3H2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2NH3(g)
In the above equilibrium, if the pressure is increased, the volume wiLl decreases. The system responds to this effect by reducing the number of gas molecules. i.e., it favours the formation of ammonia. If the pressure is reduced, the volume will increases. It favours the decomposition of ammonia.

Question 13.
Why pressure has no effect on the synthesis of HI?
Answer:
(i) When the total number of moles of gaseous reactants and gaseous products are equal, the change in pressure has no effect on system at equilibrium.
H2(g) + I2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2HI(g)
Here the number of moles of reactants and products are equal. So the pressure has no effect on such equilibrium with ∆ng = O.

Question 14.
Explain the effect of temperature on the following equilibrium reaction.
N2(g) + 3H2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2NH3(g) ∆H = – 92.2 kJ.
Answer:
In this equilibrium, N2(g) + 3H2(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2NH3(g) ∆H = – 92.2 kJ.

Forward reaction is exothermic while the reverse reaction is endothermic. If the temperature of the system increased, the system responds by decomposing some of ammonia molecules to nitrogen and hydrogen by absorbing the supplied heat energy.

Similarly, the system responds to a drop in the temperature by forming more ammonia molecule from nitrogen and hydrogen which release heat energy.

Question 15.
How does oxygen exchanges between maternal and fetal blood in a pregnant woman?
Answer:
1. In a pregnant women, the oxygen supply for the fetus is provided by the maternal blood in the placenta where the blood vessels of both mother and fetus arc in close proximity. Both fetal and maternal hemoglobin binds tO oxygen reversibly as follows.
Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-78

2. In the above two equilibrium, the equilibrium constant value for the oxygenation of fetal hemoglobin is higher which is due to its higher affinity for oxygen compared to adult hemoglobin. Hence in placenta, the oxygen from the mother’s blood s effectively transferred to fetal hemoglobin.

Question 16.
What is K for the following reaction in state of equilibrium?
2SO2(g) + O2 \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2SO3(g)
(Given:[SO2] = 0.6 M; [O2] = 0.82 M; and [SO3] = 1.90 M
Answer:
2SO2(g) + O2 \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2SO3(g)

Question 17.
At a certain temperature and total pressure of 105Pa, iodine vapours contain 40% by volume of iodine atoms in the equilibrium 12(g) \(\rightleftharpoons\) 2I(g). Calculate Kp for the equilibrium.
Answer:
According to available data:
Total pressure of equilibrium mixture = 105 Pa
Partial pressure of iodine atoms (1) = \(\frac { 40 }{ 100 }\) x (105 Pa) = 0.4 x 105 Pa
Partial pressure of iodine molecules (I2) = \(\frac { 60 }{ 100 }\) x (105 Pa) = 0.6 X 105 Pa

III. Answer the following questions in detail:

1. Derive the values of equilibrium constants Kp and KC for a general reaction
x A + y B \(\rightleftharpoons\) lC + mD
Answer:
Let us consider a reversible reaction x A + y B \(\rightleftharpoons\) lC + mD
where A, B are the reactants C and D are the product and x, y. l and m are the stoichiometric coefficients of A. B, C and D respectively. Applying the law of mass action the rate of forward reaction.
rf ∝ [A]x [B]y or rf Kf [A]x [B]y
Similarly the rate of backward reaction
rb ∝ [C]l [D]m or rb = Kb [C]l [D]m
where Kf and Kb are proportionality constants.
At equilibrium, Rate of forward reaction (rf) = Rate of backward reaction (rb)

Common Errors

  1. In writing Kp, KC values from the equations, students may confuse to write whether products or reactants in the numerator or in the denominator
  2. When Kp = KC.(RT)0 students may confuse.
  3. In writing An values, students will consider all reactants and products.
  4. Students are confused to understand the concept of Q value and KC value.
  5. In writing chemical equilibrium reaction, you may miss the physical states of reactants and products.
  6. ∆ngvalue calculation will go wrong if you consider all the reactants and products.
  7. Equilibrium constant value is calculated under equilibrium condition and reaction quotient value defined at sometimes at equilibrium condition wrongly by the students.
  8. Chemical equilibrium condition must be known. Students may wrongly write in an open vessel, the equilibrium take place.
  9. Equilibrium symbol, students may wrongly write as =

Rectifications

  1. Always we have to write Kp & KC as Samacheer Kalvi 11th Chemistry Solutions Chapter 8 Physical and Chemical Equilibrium-105
  2. (Anything)° = 1. So Kp = KC.
  3. Only they have to consider gaseous reactants and gaseous products. Since solid and liquid are constant in their concentration.
  4. Q value is calculated under non equilibrium conditions. KC value is calculated under equilibrium condition.
  5. Physical states of reactants and products must be written as a subscript by the words s, l, g. (solid, liquid, gas)
  6. ∆ng = ngp – ngr You should consider only gaseous products and gaseous reactants.
  7. Reaction quotient Q value is calculated only under non-equilibrium conditions.
  8. Chemical equilibrium reactions are always take place at closed vessel only.
  9. Equilibrium reaction symbol is ⇔.

Letters are the most common forms of written communication. Writing letters is an art and it is mastered through practice. We write letters to friends and relatives to maintain contacts with them. However, in the present times with the boom in methods of communication, many of us don’t have the time or the inclination, or the temperament and the art to write letters. So telephone, fax and e-mail have replaced personal (informal) letters.

 

However, formal letters are still in vogue. Commerce, trade, official correspondence, public representation, complaints and other dealings, transactions and communication with the people are still conducted through letters. Students are therefore advised to cultivate the art and skill of letter writing. It must be remembered that different kinds of letters follow different conventions. . So, the format should suit the type.

Informal Letters
These are ordinary personal letters and informal invitations written to relatives, friends and acquaintances. The main characteristics of informal letters are:

  • These letters are first/second person presentations.
  • Personal feelings and emotions find an. expression.
  • The writer’s address is given in the usual place.
  • The salutation is usually ‘Dear’ plus ‘Name’.
  • The date of writing is given, but the year is generally omitted.
  • The style and tone are relaxed and informal.
  • Different tenses are used as the sense demands.
  • The complimentary close is: ‘Yours lovingly’ or ‘Yours truly’.

 

Formal Letters

A formal letter is different from a personal letter in tone and content. These letters are written for official purposes or commercial correspondence, so they must be systematic, specific in content and formalin the treatment of the’subject. The main features of formal letters are:

  • The matter is brief, clear and to the point.
  • There are separate paragraphs for separate topics.
  • The first paragraph indicates the theme of the letter.
  • The facts are stated in simple and direct language.
  • Long and high sounding words are avoided.
  • Even while lodging a complaint or making criticism, the tone should be polite.
  • Clumsy expressions should not be used.
  • The complimentary close is: ‘Yours sincerely’, or ‘Yours faithfully’.

The inadequate parking facilities in the commercial street area of Nungambakkam has caused a sea of chaos, confusion and disorder. Most of the vehicles are parked on roads blocking the passages to and from the parking spaces. The problem gets worse during the evening hours. People are stranded as they can’t park their vehicles at places earmarked for parking. Nor can they move out easily towards the road from the parking spaces.
I would like to offer some practical suggestions:

(i) Vehicles with even number should be allowed on even days, i.e., (Tuesday, Thursday F and Saturday) while those with odd ones be used on odd days (Monday, Wednesday, Friday). This will cut the number of vehicles by 50%.

(ii) The parking lots should be controlled by the police so that entry/exit is not blocked.
I hope my suggestions will be implemented for public benefit.

Thank you,
Yours faithfully
Radhika

Sir,

 

Sub: Improvements in School Library

During my visit to your school in connection with P.T.A. meeting, I happened to go to the library. I would like to draw your attention to the malfunctioning of the library. I sincerely feel that it can prove more useful to the students if few steps are taken to tone it up.

I was shocked at the disorderliness in the library. Books were lying in heaps and were not restored to the proper shelves. No wonder the book which the library has is reported to be non-available by the library staff. The lack of co-operation from the library staff makes the situation worse. You may take steps to make them alert and willing workers. The shortage/ non-availability of books, if any, may be made up by buying more copies of the volumes more in demand. The old and broken tables and chairs may be repaired if not replaced.

I hope that during our next meeting we shall find the library cosy, spick and span.

Yours faithfully

Answer:

Grandma Turns Eighty
[Naren, XI A]

Sixteenth August was a grand occasion for our family. My grandmother had turned eighty that day. We organised a family get-together. Messages had been sent to all my uncles, aunts and cousins. The ancestral home was decorated with flowers. A puja was performed in the temple. Then the main function began in the sitting room. It was a very cheerful occasion. All my uncles, aunts and cousins gathered under one roof. She was seated in a high arm chair. My uncle honoured her with a beautiful shawl. Then my parents presented her an almond coloured silk saree. Then came the turn of youngsters.

 

She appreciated all the gifts presented to her and blessed us. She is still smart, witty and energetic. Words of wit and wisdom dropped like honey from her lips. Dressed in her usual orange coloured dress, she appeared like a divine personality. Since I was the youngest member of the family, I received love and . affection from everyone. Sometimes I felt it was my birthday.

(ii) During the summer vacation Magesh visited his grandfather living in his native village Perambalur – Peraiyur. It was a very pleasant yet unusual experience for him. Thinking you are Magesh, write about such experiences in 150-200 words.
Answer:

Native Village Revisited
[by Magesh]

I had been to my native village five years ago and had very faint memories. But when I visited my grandfather during this summer vacation, all the earlier experiences were revived. What a contrast the village presented. Instead of bullocks, I saw tractors ploughing the fields. Electric motors were drawing water to irrigate fields which were full of tall and green maize plants. Many trees were planted on the boundaries of the farm.

However, the scene at the village pond remained more or less unchanged. I could still notice buffaloes lying in water, a boy riding one of them and rural women washing clothes there. What shocked me was that filthy water from drains was being carried to the pond. The old habits of villagers still persisted. Heaps of rubbish and dung were lying here and there. Stray dogs and pigs were wallowing in the dirt and mud. I beat a hasty retreat to my farmhouse as I could not stand the filth and nauseating smell.

SubjectInsanitation in locality
Sir

I would like to draw your kind attention to the unsanitary conditions that have pervaded in our locality.

It is a new locality where one can find big and beautiful buildings. When it was brought into being a few years ago, the municipal authorities had given a word to look into the needs of the residents. Unfortunately, their promises proved to be. mere words. The roads of our locality are all muddy and take a shabby look whenever it rains. During sunny days, people spread dust in the surroundings. Samacheer Kalvi 11th English Writing Non-Verbal Interpretation

The drains stink as they are not regularly cleaned. Since there are no dustbins around, people throw the waste material on the roadside. Flies and mosquitoes buzz about all the time. These conditions have made residents vulnerable to diseases. I, therefore, request you to please look into the matter seriously and take steps to curb the situation.

We will be thankful if you do accordingly and help us.

Devastation By Floods
[XYZ, News Correspondent, The Express]

A visit to the flood-hit districts of the State of Tamil Nadu fills one with depressing thoughts. How can nature be so cruel? The cyclonic storm has proved a disaster for the state. Coastal areas have been hit hard. The villages and hamlets have been adversely affected. Thousands of acres of land having crops are still submerged in water. Millions of cattle have been washed away or perished in the flood waters. Thousands of the villagers have been rendered homeless. Hundreds of children and the aged have been swept off. Thus there has been an all round destruction of life, property, cattle and crops. Government agencies and voluntary groups have rushed to the help of the flood-affected victims. The situation is grim and calls for more concerted efforts.

Warm up

Question 1.
Often on formal occasions, we admire friends and strangers who appear elegant, who are pleasant to converse with and who conduct themselves gracefully. At times, we also see people who are awkward, nervous and doubtful about their next move.
Recall a few examples of awkward actions that can cause discomfort or disturbance to others like spilling a cup of hot drink on someone nearby.
Answer:
Mr. X has travelling sickness. Once he was in a city bus, his wife advised him to take a polythene bag so that he can vomit inside it if he felt like it. But he forgot her advice. As the bus moved on, he had a feeling that he wasn’t fine. He craned his neck out of the window of the bus and vomited his undigested breakfast.

A. Based on your understanding of the lesson, answer the following questions in one or two sentences each:

Question 1.
Give a few instances of Bryson’s confused acts.
Answer:
He would end up standing in an alley on the wrong side of a self-locking door trying to locate a restroom in a cinema theatre. He would often go to the hotel desk, atleast two to three times a day asking what was his room number. The author had a serious problem of orientation in any new place:

Question 2.
What were the contents of the bag?
Answer:
The contents of the bag were frequent flyercard, newspaper cuttings, loose papers, tobacco pipe, magazines, passport, English money and film.

 

Question 3.
Describe the Buttery cascade of things tumbling from the bag.
Answer:
The side of the bag flew open and everything within was extravagantly ejected over an area about the size of a tennis court. The carefully stored documents came raining down in a fluttery cascade. Coins bounced to a variety of noisy oblivions. Lidless tobacco tin rolled crazily across the concourse disgorging its content as it went.

Question 4.
Why did the author’s concern over tobacco shift to his finger?
Answer:
When the author saw the racing tobacco box disgorging its content, he worried about the need to buy expensive tobacco in England. But when he saw his own bleeding finger that he had gashed while forcefully opening the jammed zip, he shifted his cry to his finger.

Question 5.
What happened to Bryson when he leaned to tie his shoelace?
Answer:
When Bryson leaned to tie a shoe lace inside the air-craft, some one in the seat ahead of him threw his seat back into full recline. The author found himself pinned helplessly in a crash position.

Question 6.
How did Bryson free himself from the crash position?
Answer:
Bryson was able to disentangle himself only by clawing the leg of the man sitting next to him.

Question 7.
Give a brief account of the embarrassing situation of Bryson when he knocked down the drink.
Answer:
Bryson rose from the dinner table looking as if he had just experienced a localized seismic event. While opening the lid, he used to spill the contents on his family and fellow passengers and thus embarrassing them. To avoid such anxious moments, his wife used to give directions to the children. “Take the lids off the food for daddy”.

Question 8.
What was Bryson’s worst accident on a plane?
Answer:
During one of the flights, the author was jotting down his thoughts on a notebook. The important thoughts reflected how well he behaves in public places. His recorded thoughts were, “buy socks”, “clutch drinks carefully”. He was sucking the pen thoughtfully. He was oblivious of the fact that the pen was leaking. The leaked ink had left scrub-resistant navy blue on his mouth, gum, chin, tongue and teeth for several days.

Question 9.
What did Bryson wish to avoid in his life?
Answer:
Bryson wished to avoid air travel especially with his family members.

Question 10.
How would staying away from liquid mischief benefit Bryson?
Answer:
Staying away from liquid mischief would naturally reduce the expense on laundry bills.

B. Answer the following questions in about three to four sentences each:

Question 1.
Why doesn’t Bryson seem to be able to do easily what others seem to? Give a few reasons.
Answer:
Bryson lacks orientation. He has. great capacity in forgetting hotel rooms, the location of rest rooms in a cinema hall and the number of his room in a hotel. He goes atleast three times a day to the reception desk to ask which room is allotted to him.

Question 2.
What was the reaction of Bryson’s wife to his antics?
Answer:
Mrs. Bryson saw the quixotic behaviour of her husband. She was neither angry nor exasperated. But she just expressed her deep sense of wonder. She said, ‘I can’t believe you do this for a living”.

Question 3.
Briefly describe the ‘accidents’ encountered on the flight by Bryson.
Answer:
Once the author was trying to tie a shoe lace. He bent to tie it. Just that moment, the passenger in the front seat reclined in full swing. The author was pinned down in a crash position. On another occasion, he engaged an attractive woman in a witty conversation. While talking to her, he sucked his pen. The pen left a scrub-resistant navy blue on his gum, mouth, teeth and his chin for several days.

C. Based on your understanding of the text, answer the following questions in a paragraph of about 100 – 150 words:

Question 1.
‘To this day, I don’t know how I did it’ – What does ‘it’ refer to?
Answer:
Once, the author knocked a soft drink onto the lap of a sweet little lady sitting beside him. The flight attendant came and cleaned her up and brought him a replacement drink. Instantly he knocked ‘it’ onto the woman again. To this day, the author does not remember how he spilled the drink twice on the same lady passenger seated next to him in the aeroplane.

He just remembers reaching out for the new drink and watch helplessly as his arm, like some cheap prop in one of those 1950 horror movies with a name swept the drink from its perch and on to her lap. The sweet lady was a mm. She looked at him with a stupefied expression. She uttered an oath that started with oh! and ended with sake. In between she used some words the author had never heard before in public.

“I don’t know what is more messy, my room or my life. ”

Question 2.
But, when it’s my own – well, I think hysterics are fully justified’ – How?
Answer:
The author had planned to go to England with all his family members. He arrived at the Logan airport at Boston. When they were checking in, he suddenly remembered that he forgot to use his frequent flier card (British Airways). He also remembered how he had left it in a bag. He tried to open the bag. The zip was jammed. He tried to open it by force. After several attempts, it gave away spilling all the contents in a sprawling corridor in the airport. He ignored the flying documents, silver coins and even passport.

He worried about the tobacco box which was rolling away crazily disgorging its content on the way. He cried “My Tobacco” remembering how expensive it would be to buy tobacco for his pipe in England. Just then he realized that he was bleeding profusely. He had made a gash on his finger while trying to open the zip of his bag by force. He cried hysterically on seeing his own blood, “My finger” My finger”. In general, he was not comfortable flowing other’s blood. But when it came to spilling his own blood “hysterics” was really justified.

“Relived stress through hysterical screaming.”

Question 3.
Bring out the pun in the title ‘The Accidental Tourist’ (one who happens to travel by accident or one who meets with accidents often on his or her trips!).
Answer:
The title “accidental tourist” implies that a man travels a lot and is always confused. He gets into trouble because of his unintentional acts and clumsiness. He does not happen to travel by accident because he should buy a ticket, go to the airport and board the aircraft . wit(i careful plan. But during his travel he does meet with numerable accidents.

The later interpretation is very apt for the author. The story depicts many humorous travel experiences like being pinned in a crash position in his own seat by a fellow passenger, spilling drink on a co-passenger, making his own teeth, gum, chin and tongue scrub-resistant navy blue by his unwise mannerism of sucking the pen, while thinking. The author accidentally gets into trouble often. Hence the pun in the use of “accidental” is pertinent.

“Fill your life with adventures, not things Have stories to tell, not stuff to show.”

Question 4.
Can a clumsy person train himself/herself to overcome short comings? How could this be done?
Answer:
Yes, a clumsy person can train himself to overcome his short comings. People with severe Parkinsons’s disease too learn to hold a spoon and eat with great difficulties. Children with multiple disabilities and nervous problems learn to button up their shirts, tie the shoe laces and even assist friends with similar ailments. There is no difficulty in the world that is insurmountable. Practice makes one perfect. The author’s wife, without rebuking him publicly for his callous clumsiness, trains her children to be supportive of their father Mr. Bryson who always spills drinks or bumps on something or even sits on chewing gum or spilled oil.

As clumsiness is not a welcome behaviour pattern among adults, one must learn how to mend oneself and try to overcome one eccentricity per day with deliberate effort. The author does admit to restrain himself to reduce the laundry bill. But if he extends his efforts even during the presence of his family on long distance air-travels, it would be nice. Cultivating an acceptable behaviour in public places is not an impossible task for any sensible man.

‘‘I am not clumsy. It s just the floor that hates me.
The tables and chairs are bullies
And the wall gets in the way.”

Question 5.
As a fellow passenger of Bill Bryson on the flight, make a diary entry describing his clumsy behaviour during the trip and the inconveniences caused to others as a result of his nervousness.
Answer:
On that fatefulday, I was standing infront of the check in counter just behind a crazyman. He was making odd movement with his hands. It appeared that he was trying to open something. He had yanked the zip of his bag open. It spilled ejecting all the important contents. The funny thing was, the funny man was running behind a tin of tobacco which had already disgorged its content. Then he suddenly cried, “My finger”. May be he had hurt his finger. The funniest side of the whole episode was that he ignored passport, currency, coins and other fluttering travel documents. I had my sincere sympathy with the man but I couldn’t help laughing noiselessly because the fellow was really eccentric.

He did not have a sense of proportion. He gave importance to trifles and ignored the major things lying down fluttering in the corridor of the airport. During his flight he disgorged/spilled the contents of his drink and profusely tendered his apology to the lady next to him. He appeared as real as a buffoon when he appeared sheepish with navy blue ink smeared on his gum, teeth, chin and tongue. It reminded me of a lion faced monkey.

‘‘I have always had a reputation as a Bufoon.”

Additional Questions

Question 6.
Bill Bryson “ached to be suave”. Was he successful in his mission? List his “unsuave ways.
Answer:
Bill Bryson expresses his genuine desire to be “suave”. He would love just once in his life time to rise from the dinner table as if he had experienced an “extremely localized seismic event, get into a car without leaving 14 inch coat outride, wear light-coloured trousers without ever discovering at the end of the day that he had at various times and places sat on chewing gum, ice-cream cough syrup and motor oil. No, Bill Bryson was not successful in his mission. Twice he spilled his drinks on a sweet nun who happened to sit next to him. He tried to show off his wisdom to another attractive lady. As usual, he was sucking his pen.

His shirt, teeth and gum carried the unscrubbable navy blue stain for many days. He always did “liquid mischief’. His clumsy behaviour in the aeroplane made the saintly mm use abusive language. To avoid unsuave ways, he gave up air-travel with his family members. His wife and children supported him yet failed to be refined in manners.
‘‘Heroes, well, they don’t live so long.
But they ’re too suave, and we all admire them.”

(b) Speak to the class for a minute, as to how one should conduct oneself on formal occasions. (You could talk about table-manners especially while eating, general appearance, manner of speaking, etc.)

Manners maketh a man. While talking, one must look into the eyes of the person spoken to.
When someone else is talking, one should have the decency to pay attention and restate what was gathered to confirm one has understood the essence of the talk. When someone is asking something or enquiring something, one should not be meddling with other things. Such a behaviour amounts to an insult to the speaker. While eating along with friends, when you finish, never get up and leave the table to wash the hands. While eating, one must eat without making much noise. Care must be taken not to spill curry, drinks on the fellow diners.

While attending an interview or going to the college, one must wear neat dress and greet others with a cheerful face. While talking to elders one must always use “Sir” or Madam. While requesting use “please”. When receiving a help, remember to say ‘thank you’. When someone is hurt by an un wise remark, be quick to apologise or say “sorry”.

Writing

Now write a short story to explain these proverbs.

Question 1.
Actions speak louder than words.
Answer:
Vivek Pradhan was not a happy man.. Even the plush comfort of the air-conditioned compartment of the Shatabdi express could not cool his frayed nerves. He was the Project Manager and still not entitled to air travel. It was not the prestige he sought, he had tried to reason with the admin person, it was the savings in time. As Project Manager, he had so many things to do!!
He opened his case and took out the laptop, determined to put the time to some good use.

‘Are you from the software industry sir?’ the man beside him was staring appreciatively at the laptop. Vivek glanced briefly and mumbled in affirmation, handling the laptop now with exaggerated care and importance as if it were an expensive car.

‘You people have brought so much advancement to the country, Sir. Today everything is getting computerized.’ ‘Thanks,’ smiled Vivek, turning around to give the man a look. He always found it difficult to resist appreciation. The man was young and stockily built like a sportsman. He looked simple and strangely out of place in that little lap of luxury like a small town boy in a prep school. He probably was a railway sportsman making the most of his free travelling pass.

‘You people always amaze me,’ the man continued, ‘You sit in an office and write something on a computer and it does so many big things outside.’ Vivek smiled deprecatingly. Naiveness demanded reasoning not anger. ‘It is not as simple as that my friend. It is not just a question of writing a few lines. There is a lot of process that goes behind it.’ For a moment, he was tempted to explain the entire Software Development Lifecycle but restrained himself to a single statement.

‘It is complex, very complex.’ ‘It has to be. No wonder you people are so highly paid,’ came the reply. This was not turning out as Vivek had thought. A hint of belligerence crept into his so far affable, persuasive tone. ‘Everyone just sees the money. No one sees the amount of hard work we have to put in. Indians have such a narrow concept pf hard work. Just because we sit in an air-conditioned office, does not mean our brows do not sweat. You exercise the muscle;
‘we exercise the mind and believe me that is no less taxing.’

He could see, he had the man where he wanted, and it was time to drive home the point.

‘Let me give you an example. Take this train. The entire railway reservation system is computerized. You can book a train ticket between any two stations from any of the hundreds of computerized booking centers across the country. Thousands of transactions accessing a single database, at a time concurrently; data integrity, locking, data security. Do you understand the complexity in designing and coding such a system?’ The man was awestruck; quite like a child at a planetarium. This was something big and beyond his imagination.

‘You design and code such things?’ ‘I used to,’ Vivek paused for effect, ‘but now I am the Project Manager.’ ‘Oh! ’ sighed the man, as if the storm had passed over, ‘so your life is easy now.’ This was like the last straw for Vivek. He retorted, ‘Oh come on, does life ever get easy as you go up the ladder. Responsibility only brings more work. Design and coding! That is i the easier part. Now I do not do it, but I am responsible for it and believe me, that is far more

stressful. My job is to get the work done in time and with the highest quality. To tell you about the pressures, there is the customer at one end, .always changing his requirements, the user at the other, wanting something else, and your boss, always expecting you to have finished it i yesterday.’ Vivek paused in his diatribe, his belligerence fading with self-realization. What he had said, was not merely the outburst of a wronged man, it was the truth. And one need not get angry while defending the truth. ‘My friend,’ he concluded triumphantly, ‘you don’t know what it is to be in the Line of Fire’. The man sat back in his chair, his eyes closed as if in realization. When he spoke after sometime, it was with a calm certainty that surprised Vivek. ‘I know sir, I know what it is to be in the Line of Fire ’He was staring blankly, as if no passenger,
no train existed, just a vast expanse of time.

‘There were 30 of us when we were ordered to capture Point 4875 in the cover of the night. The enemy was firing from the top. There was no knowing where the next bullet was going to come from and for whom. In the morning when we finally hoisted the tri-colour at the top only four of us were alive.’ ‘You are a…?’ ‘I am Subedar Sushant from the 13 J&K Rifles on duty at Peak 4875 in Kargil. They tell me 1 have completed my term and can opt for a soft assignment. But, tell me sir, can one give up duty just because it makes life easier? On the dawn of that capture, one of my colleagues lay injured in the snow, open to enemy fire while we were hiding behind a bunker.

It was my job to go and fetch that soldier to safety. But my captain sahib refused me permission and went ahead himself. He said that the first pledge he had taken as a Gentleman Cadet was to put the safety and welfare of the nation foremost followed by the safety and welfare of the men he commanded his own personal safety came last, always and every time.’

‘He was killed as he shielded and brought that injured soldier into the bunker. Every morning thereafter, as we stood guard, I could see him taking all those bullets, which were actually meant for me . I know sir….I know, what it is to be in the Line of Fire.’ Vivek looked at him in disbelief not sure of how to respond. Abruptly, he switched off the laptop. It seemed trivial, even insulting to edit a Word document in the presence of a man for whom valour and duty was a daily part of life; valour and sense of duty which he had so far attributed only to epical heroes. The train slowed down as it pulled into the station, and Subedar Sushant picked up his bags to alight.

‘It was nice meeting you sir.’ Vivek fumbled with the handshake.

This hand… had climbed mountains, pressed the trigger, and hoisted the tri-colour. Suddenly, as if by impulse, he stood up in attention and his right hand went up in an impromptu salute,… It was the least he felt he could do for the country.

PS: The incident he narrated during the capture of Peak 4875 is a true-life incident during the Kargil war. Capt. Batra sacrificed his life while trying to save one of the men he commanded, as victory was within sight. For this and various other acts of bravery, he was awarded the Param Vir Chakra, the nation’s highest military award. Live humbly, there are great people around us, let us learn! Action speaks louder than words

 

Question 2.
Despair gives courage to a coward.
Answer:
Most of the time, we do not realize the talent that is within us. Certain situations help to bring out these special qualities to the fore. Just as a drowning man tries to hold on to anything that comes his way to save his life, we too come up with remedies beyond our imagination in desperate situations. We find the courage to do extraordinary things when we are in despair. Even a coward can be turned into a brave warrior in a life-threatening situation. Once there was an ant that lived in a tree by the side of a pond. He was very timid and was scared of even the slightest disturbance in the tree. One day a heavy wind blew across the tree and the ant fell into the pond and was struggling to swim and stay afloat. A pigeon that lived in the same tree broke a twig of the tree and threw it to the ant. The ant got on to the twig and the pigeon swooped down picked up the twig and placed it back on the tree. The ant thanked the pigeon profusely for saving his life.

As the days went by the ant and the pigeon became good friends. The pigeon always told the ant that he should learn to be a bit braver and face life boldly. But the ant remained the same. One day a hunter came to the pond to quench his thirst. As he was drinking water from the pond he noticed the pigeon sitting on the tree. The hunter wanted to shoot the pigeon and got his bow and arrow ready. The ant noticed this and wanted to desperately save his friend. The pigeon was fast asleep and there was no way to warn him since he was sitting a long way the ant jumped down from the tree and crawled as fast as he could and bit the toe of the hunter hard as he could. The hunter cried out in pain and missed his aim.

The pigeon woke up hearing the noise and noticed the hunter with his bow and arrow. It flew away to safety. The ant was very happy that it could save his friend and felt elated for having acted bravely for once in his life.

The story clearly illustrates that when placed in a desperate situation the ant could rise above its limitations and act bravely in order to save the pigeon’s life. So when the situation demands even a coward can turn into a courageous person.

Develop the following hints into a paragraph

As is the King, So are the Subjects

Once upon a time two kings ruled neighbouring kingdoms. King Arya was a great warrior. He looked after his subjects very well. People loved him. He was always looking for ways to increase their safety and welfare. All his subjects were happy. On the other hand, king Vaishal was a very lazy man. He spent his time entertaining himself. There was always singing, dancing and merry making. His subjects were very angry with him as he never came out of the palace to listen to their woes.

A powerful Sultan attacked both the kingdoms. King Arya’s army, being well-prepared was

Very alert. The enemy forces were really powerful. But men, women and even children i joined the hands of army to protect their king. King Vaishal’s subject soon after sensing the

impending war, started fleeing the kingdom. King was left all alone. People were not interested in protecting him as he was not interested in their welfare and safety.

King Vaishal realized his foolishness but it was too late. He was defeated in war and fled his country in disgrace to save his own life. King Arya defeated Sultan. This happened because King Arya always kept the welfare of his people in his heart all the time. His subjects reciprocated his love. They were loyal and supportive during testing times.

The Accidental Tourist About the Author

Samacheer Kalvi 11th English Solutions Prose Chapter 6 The Accidental Tourist 7

Bill Bryson is an Anglo-American author of books on travel, English language, science and non-fiction topics. He stayed in Great Britain during his adult years. He served as the Chancellor of Durham University from 2005 to 2011. ’Neither here not there’, ‘Notes from a small island’, ‘A Walk in the woods’
‘A Short history of nearly everything’, ‘The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid’, and Icons of England are some his famous

The Accidental Tourist Summary

The whole story revolves around the author’s inability to do ordinary things that other people do in public places like a cinema theatre or a plane. He has problems of orientation. He would try to reach a rest room but find himself behind a self-locking door. The author recounts how his anxiety ruined the happiness of people at the airport and how he himself suffered. For fear of such life-time incompatibility, the author refrained from making frequent trips and could never use his frequent flier miles for a trip to Bali island. The author had a flash of memory that he had joined British Airways frequent flier programme. His entire family arrived at Logan Airport in Boston. Unfortunately, he had placed the card in a carry-on-bag hanging around his neck.

The zip on’ the bag was jammed. He tried pulling it hard. He used force instead of commonsense, the zip gave way spilling the contents over an area as large as tennis court.

To the great embarrassment of all fellow passengers waiting at the airport, 14 ounce tin pipe, coins and other important documents flew helter-skelter. He was annoyed to see the snuff box rolling and emptying its content. Instead of trying to collect coins, documerit and important papers, he went behind the tobacco box crazily shouting, “My tobacco”. When he sensed oozing of blood from his finger that he had gashed while opening the bag’s jammed zip he shifted his attention immediately to his finger. The author’s wife, wondering at his hysterics said, “I can’t believe you do this for a living”.

Once in an aeroplane, the author leaned to tie his shoe lace. Just then some one in the front seat leaned back into full recline. The author found himself pinned helplessly in a crash position. Once the author spilled drinks on a fellow passenger too. He did it twice. He did not know how he did it.

The author was recording his important thoughts in a note book. They were as silly as he was “Buy socks, clutch drinks carefully”. He had fallen into a deep conversation with an attractive young lady in the next seat. Having lost his head, he amused her for about twenty minutes exchanging witty remarks to impress her. When he went to a rest room, he realized that the pen head leaked. His mouth, teeth and gums appeared in striking, scrub-resistent navy blue. To his disgust, it remained blue for many days.

The author wanted to be polished and sophisticated in his manners; But as serendipity would have it, he never left a dinner without making fellow diners realize that he had just experienced a local seismic event. Whenever he entered a car, he closed the door when his coat was still 14 inches outside the door. His trousers always brought evidence of his having sat on chewing gum, ice-cream, cough syrup or motor oil.

The author had clear prediction of the catastrophe he intended to venture into unconsciously. So, his wife would give directions to children like,

“Take the lid off the food for daddy” or put your hoods up children, Daddy’s going to cut his meat”. The author does all such cranky things only during his flight with his family.

While staying alone the author sat on his own down turned palms to prevent himself from doing some “liquid mischief ”. When alone, he never does things which would land him in some sure catastrophe.

The author admits his peculiar inability of earning flyer miles. He has a habitual forgetting of his “Frequent flyer mile card” while collecting his Boarding pass. Though he deserves to have earned 100,000 miles a year, and visited Bali on a free air ticket, he had earned only 212 air miles. While on a flight to Australia, the airline agency refused to grant air miles because the flyer mile card read as W. Bryson where as the name in the ticket read as B. Bryson.

 

He admits that he would never go to Bali because he has a peculiar habit of spilling the contents of food on board. People who have clumsy habits do overcome their awkwardness in public places with careful practice. As we live in a society, we should leam to conform to the norms of the society including table manners.
