A. In the reverse reaction of the first reaction, HSO3- acts as a OH- donor. Hence it might be called a base.
B. The reaction is SO2 - > SO3- , Sulphur actually got oxidised from +4 to +6. So, its a reducing agent, not an oxidising agent.
C. SO3 (2-) accepts a proton in the reverse reaction of second reaction. So, it acts as a base. Not an acid.
D. The second reaction isn't a redox reaction at all. So, SO3 (2-) can't be any agent.
Since when is a base an acceptor of OH^- ions?

Q9) theres kind of a shorcut explanaion to this, since the products of reaction two are 1/2 moles, so its going to be anything with a power of 1/2 which is actually square root, the only option with an underroot 2 is A.

Q18) the solid nitrate is NH4NO3 > N2H4O3

Q27) propanal and propan-2-ol both have the tendency to be oxidized. propanal to propanoic acid and propan-2-ol to propanone. When they get oxidized both change the colour of KMnO4 from orange to green.

Q40) inorder to break an ester bond there must be either a dilute acid or alkali. the only of these is 1 (acid), thus being the only answer. heres a little info on ester hydrolysis...

histephenson007 already answered 3 and 26 so ill chip in to the 16. If something is being precipitated then it must be insoluble, of all the options CaCO3 is the only insoluble salt, or at least thats what i think.

Yes thats what i thought it would be but i still wasnt sure. well thanks!

Walikum Salaam! :)

28 - A is a test for aldehyde.
C is test for both aldehyde and ketone.
D is used for the reduction of carbonyl compounds.

B is the correct answer as it is test for alkenic double bond. Cyclohexene having double bond will discharge the colour of Br2 while cyclohexanol won't...



35- Not sure.


36-

X can be Carbon, Nitrogen and Sulpher.

Y can be CO, NO, SO2.

Z can be CO2, NO2. (No SO3, Oxidation of SO2 requires catalyst so its not on the spot reaction.)

1- It does increase for NO and CO.
2- CO and SO2 does have lone pairs.
3- CO2 and NO2 have two oxygen atoms.

So only 1 is correct.



10- Acid is a proton donor, Base is aproton acceptor. In the second reaction HSO3- accepts the proton making it a base. Further explained here : Chemistry: Post your doubts here!



35.

1 - Ammonium Salt with strong base gives ammonia.

2- Neutralization Reaction. So that is correct too.

3- Limewater absorbs CO2 making limestone.

A is the answer.



36 - X can be Carbon, Nitrogen and Sulpher.

Y can be CO, NO, SO2.

Z can be CO2, NO2. (Oxidation of SO2 requires catalyst Vanadium Oxide so it is not on the spot reaction)

1- X forms a basic hydride is correct as NH3 is basic.

2- Y is a diatomic molecule is correct as you can see CO and NO are diatomic.

3- Z is a polar molecule. NO2 is polar.

So all are correct making the answer A.

Cud sum1 tell me hw v calculate the no. of moles required?? Ans is C, btw

first try understanding in terms of ethene...
ethene has 1 double bond ryt? if u saturate it, u get ethane... draw out these 2 n see how many H is extra (u will see its 2)
now apply dis 2 da question... how many bonds do we need 2 saturate? 5 in total ryt? count it out, 1 bond in 1 chain n 2 bonds in the oder 2... dat makes 5 moles...
(as 1 mole of H2 has 2 moles of H atoms in it...)

oh bt hw did u know 5 bonds hv been saturated??
thnx, nywy...
P.S. I m kinda bad at organic chem...:notworthy:

see the question... in the residue molecule, dere is 1 double bond left in da molecule n 2 in da oder 1.. n dere r 2 moles of the second molecule..
so dats 1 + 2(2) = 5
ur welcum... ;)
dats wat u think.... its jst practice ;)

Answer is B. Explain?

Assalamoalaikum wr wb!
yup..
enthalpy change of formation is the formation of 1 mole of product, with the reactants and products in the standard state...!!

iodine is solid under standard conditions...so total enthalpy change of formation of 2 moles of ICl3 is 38 + -214 = -176

standard is for one mole so -176/2 = -88

It says that one side chain is converted to a compound with 2 double bonds instead of 3, which means one bond was hydrogenated, so one mole of H2 was used. Then it says that 2 chains were converted to compounds with only one double bond each, which means that 2 bonds were hydrogenated per chain, so 2 moles of H2 used per chain. Now if you add em up its 1 mole for the first chain, 2 moles for the second, and 2 moles for the third. So 5 moles of H2 were used. :)
