Section A
Question 1.
Redox reactions are commonly known as reduction-oxidation reactions. They involve the transfer of electrons from one species to another. In a spontaneous reaction, energy is released which can be used to do work. The reaction is driven by two different containers and a voltaic Galvani cell is set up. In spontaneous redox reactions, a salt bridge connects the half-cells. The reading of the voltmeter gives the cell voltage or cell potential or electromotive force. If Ecell is positive the reaction is spontaneous and if negative the reaction is non-spontaneous and is referred to as an electrolytic cell. Electrolysis refers to the decomposition of a substance by electric current. One mole of electric charge when passed through a cell will discharge half a mole of a divalent metal ion such as Cu. This was first formulated by Faraday in the form of laws of electrolysis. The conductance of a material is the property of allowing the flow of ions through itself and thus conducts electricity. Conductivity is represented by k and it depends upon the nature and concentration of ions, temperature, etc. A more common term, molar conductivity, refers to the conductance of the volume of solution containing one mole of electrolyte kept between two electrodes with the unit area of cross-section and standard unit length. Limiting molar conductivity of weak electrolytes cannot be ascertained.
Section B
Question 2.
[3 Marks]
Write three differences between Physisorption and Chemisorption.
Question 3.
[3 Marks]
A compound 'A' on reduction with iron scrap and hydrochloric acid gives compound 'B' with molecular formula C6H7N. Compound 'B' on reaction with CHCl3, and alcoholic KOH produces an obnoxious smell of carbylamine due to the formation of 'C'. Identify 'A', 'B' and 'C' and write the chemical reactions involved.
