General Instructions :

Read the following instructions carefully and follow them :

  1. This question paper contains 5 questions. All questions are compulsory.
  2. This question paper is divided into 3 sections.
  3. Section A – questions number 1 to 1 are case based questions
  4. Section B – questions number 2 to 2 are short answer
  5. Section C – questions number 3 to 5 are long answer
  6. There is no overall choice given in the question paper. However, an internal choice has been provided in few questions.
  7. Use of calculator is NOT allowed.

Section A

Question 1. The rate law for a chemical reaction relates the reaction rate with the concentrations or partial pressures of the reactants. For a general reaction aA + bB → C with no intermediate steps in its reaction mechanism, meaning that it is an elementary reaction, the rate law is given by r = k[A]^x[B]^y, where [A] and [B] express the concentrations of A and B in moles per litre. Exponents x and y vary for each reaction and are determined experimentally. The value of k varies with conditions that affect reaction rate, such as temperature, pressure, surface area, etc. The sum of these exponents is known as overall reaction order. A zero order reaction has a constant rate that is independent of the concentration of the reactants. A first order reaction depends on the concentration of only one reactant. A reaction is said to be second order when the overall order is two. Once we have determined the order of the reaction, we can go back and plug in one set of our initial values and solve for k.

Section B

Question 2.

In a plot of ∧m against the square root of concentration (C1/2) for strong and weak electrolyte, the value of limiting molar conductivity of a weak electrolyte cannot be obtained graphically. Suggest a way to obtain this value. Also state the related law, if any.

Section C

Question 3.

A compound 'A' (C2H4O) on oxidation gives 'B' (C2H4O2). 'A' undergoes Iodoform reaction to give yellow precipitate and reacts with HCN to form the compound 'C'. 'C' on hydrolysis gives 2-hydroxypropanoic acid. Identify the compounds 'A', 'B' and 'C'. Write down equations for the reactions involved.
