Question 28.
H3BO3 accepts hydroxide ion from water as shown below
H3BO3 (aq) + H2O((l) ⇌ B(OH)4 + H+
Predict the nature of H3BO3 using Lewis concept.
Answer:
Boric acid is also called as hydrogen borate or orthoboric acid. It is a weak mono basic Lewis acid of boron and it is written as B(OH)3 It accepts hydroxyl (OH) ion from water. It does not dissociate to give hydronium (H3O+) ion rather forms metaborate ion and this ions in turn give H3O+ ion.
B(OH)3 + H2O ⇌ [B(OH)4] + H3O+
Hence it is considered as weak acid.

Question 29.
Explain graphical representation of chemical adsorption and physical adsorption.
Answer:
(i) Adsorption isotherms represents the variation of adsorption at constant temperature.
(ii) When amount of adsorption is plotted versus temperature at constant pressure is called adsorption isobar
Tamil Nadu 12th Chemistry Model Question Paper 4 English Medium - 19
(iii) In physical adsorption x/m decreases with increase in T. But in chemical adsorption x/m increases with rise in temperature and then decreases. The increase illustrate the requirement of activation of the surface for adsorption is due to the fact that formation of activated complex require certain energy. The decrease at high temperature is due to desorption, as the kinetic energy of the adsorbate increases.

Question 33.
Explain the variation in E0M3+/M2+ 3d series.
Answer:
1. In transition series, as we move down from Ti to Zn, the standard reduction potential \(\mathbf{E}^{0} \mathrm{M}^{2+} / \mathrm{M}^{3+}\) value is approaching towards less negative value and copper has a positive reduction potential, i.e. elemental copper is more stable than Cu2+ .

2. \(\mathrm{E}^{0} \mathrm{m}^{2+} / \mathrm{M}\) value for manganese and zinc are more negative than regular trend. It is due to extra stability arises due to the half filled d5 configuration in Mn2+ and completely filled d10 configuration in Zn2+.

3. The standard electrode potential for the M3+ / M2+ half cell gives the relative stability between M3+ and M2+.

4. The high reduction potential of Mn3+ / Mn2+ indicates Mn2+ is more stable than Mn3+.

5. For Fe3+ /Fe2+ the reductionpotential is 0.77V, and this low value indicates that both Fe3+ and Fe2+ can exist under normal condition.

6. Mn3+ has a 3d4 configuration while that of Mn2+ is 3d5. The extra stability associated with a half filled d sub-shell makes the reduction of Mn very feasible [E0 = +1.51 V]

Question 34.
(a) (i) Describe a method for refining nickel. (3)
(ii) Why group 18 elements are called inert gases?-Write the general electronic configuration of group 18 elements. (2)
[OR]
(b) (i) Give the uses of helium. (3)
(ii) Ni (II) compounds are more stable than Pt (II) compounds. Give reason. (2)
Answer:
(a) (i) The impure nickel is heated in a stream of carbon monoxide at around 350 K. The nickel
reacts with the CO to form a highly volatile nickel tetracarbonyl. The solid impurities ‘ . are left behind.
Ni (s) + 4 CO (g) → Ni(CO)4 (g)
On heating the nickel tetracarbonyl around 460 K, the complex decomposes to give pure metal
Ni(CO)4(g) → Ni(s) + 4 CO (g)

(ii) The elements of group-18 have completely filled s and p orbitals, hence they are more stable and have least reactivity. Therefore group-18 elements are called inert gases. ns2np6 is the general electronic configuration of group 18 elements.

[OR]

(b) (i) Uses of helium.

  • Helium and oxygen mixture is used by divers in place of air oxygen mixture. This prevents the painful dangerous condition called bends.
  • Helium is used to provide inert atmosphere in electric arc welding of metals
  • Helium has lowest boiling point hence used in cryogenics (low temperature science).
  • It is much less denser than air and hence used for filling air balloons

(ii) The ionisation enthalpy values can be used to predict the thermodynamic stability of their compounds.
For Nickel, I.E1 + I.E2 = 737 + 1753
= 2490 kJ mol-1
For Platinum, I.E1 +I.E2 = 864+ 1791
= 2655 kJ mol-1
Since, the energy required to form Ni2+ is less than that of Pt2+ , Ni(II) compounds are thermodynamically more stable than Pt(II) compounds.

Question 35.
(a) (i) Arrange the following in order of increasing molar conductivity (3)
1. Mg[Cr(NH3)(Cl)5] . 2.[Cr(NH3)5Cl]3 [COF6]2 3. [Cr(NH3)3Cl3]

[OR]
(b) (i) Write the rate law for the following reactions: (a) A reaction that is 3/2 order in x and zero order in y. (A) A reaction that is second order in NO and first order in Br2. (3)
(ii) Classify the following species into Lewis acids and Lewis bases and show how these can act as Lewis acid / Lewis base? (2)
(a) OHions (A) F (c) H+ (d) BCl3
Answer:
(a) (i) These complexes can ionise in solution as:
Mg[Cr(NH3)(Cl)5] = Mg2+ + [Cr(NH3)(Cl)5]2-
[Cr(NH3 )5Cl]3 [COF6]2 = [Cr(NH3)56Cl]2+ + [COF6]3-
[Cr(NH3)3Cl3] = does not ionize

As the number of ions in solution increases, their molar conductivity also increases.
Therefore, conductivity follows the order:
[Cr(NH3)3Cl3] < [Cr(NH3)5Cl]3 [COF < Mg[Cr(NH3)(Cl)5]

(ii) Silicon carbide is very hard. It is a covalent solid contains the atoms which are bound together in a three dimensional network entirely by covalent bonds. So the covalent network crystal siC is very hard and have high melting point.

Question 36.
(a) (z) Calculate pH of 10-7 MHCl. (3)
(ii) Define corrosion. Give one example. (2)
[OR]
(b) What is adsorption isotherm? Explain about Freundlich adsorption isotherm. (5)
Answer:
(a) (z) If we do not consider [H3O+ ] from the ionisation of H2O, then [H3O+ ] = [HCl] = 10-7 M i.e., pH = 7, which is a pH of a neutral solution. We know that HCl solution is acidic whatever may be the concentration of HCl i.e, the pH value should be less than 7. In this case the concentration of the acid is very low (10-7 M). Hence, the H3O+ (10-7 M) formed due to the auto ionisation of water cannot be neglected.
So, in this case we should consider [H3O+ ] from ionisation of H2 O
[H3O+ ] = 10-7 (from HCl) + 10-7 (from water)
= 10-7 (1+1)
= 2 x 10-7
pH = -log10[H3O+]
= log10 (2 x 10-7 )=—[log 2 + log10-7 ]
= – log 2 -(-7). 1og1010
= 7 – log 2
= 7 – 0.3010 = 6.6990
= 6.70

(ii) The redox process which causes the deterioration of metal is called corrosion.
Rusting of iron is an example of corrosion. It is an electro chemical process.

[OR]

(b) i. Adsorption isotherms represents the variation of adsorption at constant temperature. Adsorption isotherm can be studied quantitatively. ii. A plot between the amount of adsorbate adsorbed and pressure or concentration of adsorbate at constant temperature is called adsorption isotherms.

ii. Freundlich adsorption isotherm.
According to Freundlich \(\frac{\mathbf{x}}{\mathrm{m}}=\mathrm{k} \mathrm{P}^{1 / \mathrm{n}}\)
Where x is the amount of adsorbate (or) adsorbed on ‘m’ gm of adsorbent at a pressure of R k and n are constants. Value of ‘n’ is always less than unity.

iv. This equation is applicable for adsorption of gases on solid surfaces. The Same equation becomes \(\frac{\mathbf{x}}{\mathrm{m}}=\mathrm{k} \mathrm{P}^{1 / \mathrm{n}}\) kc when used for adsorption in solutions with ‘c’ as concentration.

v. These equation quantitatively predict the effect of pressure (or concentration) on the adsorption of gases (or adsorbates) at constant temperature.

vi. Taking log on both sides of equation
Tamil Nadu 12th Chemistry Model Question Paper 4 English Medium - 23
Tamil Nadu 12th Chemistry Model Question Paper 4 English Medium - 24

vii. Hence the intercept represents the value of log k and the slope \(\frac{b}{q}\) gives \(\frac{1}{n}\)

viii. This equation explains the increase of \(\frac{x}{m}\)with increase in pressure. But experimental values shows the deviation at low pressure.

ix. Limitations:
(a) This equation is purely empirical and valid over a limited pressure range.
(b) The value of k and n also found vary with temperatures. No theoretical explanations were given.
