CHAPTER # 1
INTRODUCTION TO FUNDAMENTAL CHEMISTRY
CHEMISTRY:
Branch of chemistry which deals with the study of substances, their structure, properties And
the reactions that changes them into the substances is called Chemistry.

PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY:
Branch of chemistry which deals with the study of physical properties and the structure of
matter and the laws and theories of chemistry is called Physical Chemistry.

ATOM:

Greek: Atom indivisible

OLD DEFINITION:
About 400 B.C, the Greek Philosopher Democritus defined an atom is extremely small
particle of a matter which cannot be further substances. Modern Definition: According to the
modern ideas an atom is the smallest particle of a matter which takes part of chemical
reaction (except the atom of inert gases). It may or may not have Independent existence.

MOLECULE:
A molecule may be defined as the smallest particle of matter formed by the combination of
two or more like or unlike atoms which have independent existence in nature of H 2O , CO2,
N2, O2 etc.

ELEMENT:
A substance cannot be further simplified into more simple substances by any chemical action
and possesses identical chemical and physical properties is called Element.
OR
A substance is which all of the atoms have the same atomic number i.e. same number of
protons in the nucleus is called Element.

COMPOUND:
A compound is a substance that is composed by two or more different elements united
chemically. E.g. CO2, HCl, NaCl etc.

MIXTURE:
A material containing two or more components which have not been chemically united and
the components of the mixture retain their original properties is called Mixture.
Mixtures are of two types.

1. HOMOGENEOUS MIXTURE:
Mixture whose composition is uniform throughout is called Homogeneous Mixture.
e.g. salt solution, sugar solution, air etc.

2. HETEROGENEOUS MIXTURE:
Mixture which is not uniform in composition throughout is called heterogeneous
mixture of salt + sand, oil and water etc.

FORMULA:
A chemical formula is the symbolic representation of a molecule of a compound. It consists
of symbols and the number of atoms of each element is a molecule of a compound.
Formulas are of two types.
1: Simple Formula or Empirical Formula
2: Molecular Formula

EMPIRICAL OR SIMPLE FORMULA:


That formula which gives simple ratio or relative number of each kind of atoms present in the
simple formula of a compound is called Empirical Formula
Empirical formula is based on unit or formula. It does not show the actual number of the
atoms in a molecule of a compound.
For example the empirical formulas of benzene and glucose are CH and CH 2O. These
formulas shoes that in benzene carbon and hydrogen are combining in the ratio of 1:1 and in
glucose, carbon, hydrogen and oxygen combining in the ratio of 1:2:1

CHARACTERISTICS OF EMPIRICAL FORMULA:


1: Empirical formula of two or more compounds may be the same of benzene and acetylene
have same empirical formula CH.
2: A compound may have same empirical and molecular formulas e.g. methyl alcohol have
same empirical and molecular formulas is CH3OH of carbon dioxide is CO2 etc.

MOLECULAR FORMULA:
Formula which gives the total number of each kind of atoms present in the molecule of a
compound is called Molecular formula.
For example: Molecular formula of benzene is C6H6 . This shows that a molecule of benzene
is composed of six atoms of carbon and six atoms of hydrogen. Molecular formula of a
compound may be the same or simple multiple of the empirical formula.
For example: Molecular formula and Empirical formula of water and methane are same is
H2O and CH4 respectively. On the other hand molecular formula of glucose is C 6H 12O6 but
its empirical formula is C H2O.

RELATION BETWEEN EMPIRICAL FORMULA AND MOLECULAR


FORMULA:
Molecular formula is either same or simple multiple of empirical formula i.e.
Molecular formula = n Empirical formula
Where n is any simple whole number and is determined by following relationship.
N = Molecular weight (Mass)
Empirical formula mass
When the value of n = 1, the molecular and empirical formulas are same.

GRAM ATOM:
Mass of one atom of an element is called Atomic mass v when this mass is expressed in gram
is called Gram Atom.
E.g. The mass of one atom of hydrogen is 1.67 10-24 g.

ATOMIC MASS OR ATOMIC WEIGHT:


The weight if one atom of the element as compared with the weight of one atom of carbon -12
the light isotope of carbon taken as 12.0 a.m.u.
Thus one atom of hydrogen which weigh 1/12th approximately the weight of light isotope of
carbon-12 has atomic weight 1.00 a.m.u.

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

i.e. (1/12 12 = 1.00) a.m.u.


Thus atomic weight is expressed in atomic mass unit (a.m.u.). The atomic mass unit is the
average mass of the isotopes as they occur in nature.
When atomic weight expressed in gram, it is called gram atomic weight.
e.g. atomic weight(mass) of H = 1.0 a.m.u.
Expressed in g = 1.0 g

MOLECULAR MASS (WEIGHT):


The molecular weight of substance is the average weight of its molecules as compared to the
weight of one atom of carbon-12 or oxygen-16 of the molecular weight of H2 molecule is 2.0
a.m.u.
2/12 12 = 2.00 a.m.u.
The molecular weight of benzene (C6H6) is 78 a.m.u.

FORMULA WEIGHT:
Formula weight is the sum of the atomic (weights) masses of all the atoms present in the
simple formula of the compressed.
Formula weight is expressed in atomic mass unit, when it is expressed in gram, it is called
Gram formula weight (Mass)
Formula mass of H2O = 18.00 a.m.u.
Expressed in gram = 18.00 g
Formula mass of NaCl = 58.5 a.m.u.
Expressed in gram = 58.5 g

MOLE:
When atomic mass of an element expressed in grams is called gram atomic mass, the
molecular mass expressed in gram is called gram molecular mass and when formula weight
g a compound expressed in gram is called gram formula (Weight) mass. Each of these mass
is known as a mole.
Hence a gram atomic mass, gram molecular mass and formula mass is called a mole.
e.g. Atomic mass of H = 1.0 a.m.u.
Expressed in gram = 1.0 a.m.u
= 1 g mole of H-atoms

Chemistry XI

Molecular mass of CO2 = 44.0 a.m.u.


Expressed in gram = 44.0 g
= 1 g mole of CO2 molecules
Formula weight of NaCl = 58.0 a.m.u.
Expressed in gram = 58.0 g
= 1 g mole of NaCl

MODERN DEFINATION:
A mole is the amount of substances that contains as many number of particles (atoms,
molecules or ions) as there are atoms contained in 12.0 gram of pure carbon-12.

AVOGADROS NUMBER: (N OR NA)


One gram mole of any substance contains definite number of atoms, molecules or ions i.e.
6.02 1023. 6.02 1023 quantity is called Avogadros number and is denoted by NA or N.
e.g. One mole of H atoms = 1 gram = 6.02 1023 atoms
One mole of H2 molecules = 2.0 g = 6.02 1023 molecules
One mole of g NaCl = 58.5g = 6.02 1023 Na+ or = 6.02 1023 ClOr = 6.02 1023
Or = 12.04 1023 ions of Na+Cl-

SIGNIFICANCE OF MOLE:
The significance of mole is that the having an atom of an element is, the more will be the
mass of 6.02 1023 atoms of that element be. Also the lights an atom of an element is, the less
will be the mass g 6.02 1023 atoms of that element.

SIGNIFICANT FIGURES:
Significant Figures are the reliable digits in a number that are known with certainly.
The last digit of a number is generally considered uncertain by 1 in the absence of
qualifying information. For example: The weight of an object can be expressed as 0.0112 g or
11.2 mg with changing the uncertainly of the weight or the number of significant figures. The
weight is still uncertain by 1 in the last digit. This can be expressed is 0.0112 0.0001 g or
as 11.2 0.1 mg.

RULES OF DETERMINING SIGNIFICANT FIGURES:


These are the following rules for determining the significant figures.
5
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

1: In a number all the non-zero digits (1 to 9) are significant figures.


e.g. 363 has three significant figures.
0.68 has only two significant figures.
2: In a number zero between non zeros are significant and, they are known as Interior Zeros.
e.g. 5004 has four significant figures.
202.03 has five significant figures.
3: Zeros locating the decimal point in numbers less than one are not significant.
e.g. 0.062 has two significant figures.
0.001 has one significant figures.
4: Final zero to the right of the decimal point are significant.
e.g. 2.000 has four significant figures.
and 506.40 has five significant figures.
5: Zeros that locate the decimal point in number large than one are not significant.
e.g. 40 has one significant figure.
236000 has three significant figures.

RANDOM ERRORS:
The errors which are unavailable are called random errors. i.e. the errors which remaining
variations indicate are called random errors.

EXPLANATION:
When all the systematic errors have either been eliminated or corrected, we still do not obtain
exact or true measurements because there is some uncertainly is every physical measurement.
A random error may be positive or negative. This is the only reason that we taken the average
of the several measurements, which is more reliable than any individual measurements.

EXPONENTIAL NOTATION:
The powers to the base 10 are known as exponents. Thus all numbers may be expressed as a
power of 10 and 102, 103, 105, 10-1, 10-2, 10-5 etc are generally called exponential notation in
which the base is 10.
For example: One mole of any element contains 602,300,000,000,000,000,000,000 atoms.
This is a very big value. On the other hand the mass of an electron is
0.0000000000000000000000000000911gram. This is a very small value. Such numbers can
in a better way be written in exponential notation.

Thus 1 mole of an element will contains 6.02 10 23 atoms and mass of an electron is 9.11
10-28gm.

PRECISION AND ACCURACY:


A term used to express the closeness between a measured value and the average value for a
series of measurements is called Precision.
The departure of the measured values from one another is called deviation.
When the measured values are close to one another and they are also close to the actual value,
then the result has good precision as well as good accuracy.

STOICHIOMETRY:

( Stoichiometry Element )

DEFINITION:
The quantitative study of the relationships between the amount of reactants and products of a
certain reaction as given by a balanced chemical equation is called Stoichiometry.

EXPLANATION:
The concept of mole finds one of its most useful applications in the calculations of masses
and volumes of chemical substances taking part in or produced by chemical reactions.
e.g. the following balanced equation indicates.
2H2S + 3O2 2SO2 + 2H2O
1: H2S gas and O2 gas react in the ratio of 2 molecules to 3 molecules to produce So 2 gas and
H2O vapors in the ratio of 2 molecules to 2 molecules.
2: Two moles (68 grams) of H 2S reacts with 3 moles (96 grams) of oxygen gas to give 2
moles (36 grams) of water vapors.
These amounts of reactants and products are called Stoichiometric amounts.

STOICHIOMETRIC CALCULATIONS:
While considering calculation based on the stoichiometry of chemical reaction. Three
important assumptions are considered.
1: Reactants are completely converted to products.
2: No side reactions to be considered.
3: A balanced chemical equation is provided.

STOICHIOMETRIC RELATIONSHIP:
There are three relationships involved for the stoichiometric calculations from the balanced
chemical equation.
1: Mass Mass Relationships ( weight-weight relationship)
2: Mass - Volume Relationships
3: Volume Volume Relationships

1: MASS MASS RELATIONSHIPS:


Such relationships are useful in determining an unknown weight of a reactant or product from
a given weight of some substances in a chemical reaction. Hence for this calculation the term
mass mass is used.

IMPORTANCE:
The correct result by this relation is obtained if we provided with a complete and balanced
chemical equation.
This balanced chemical equation tell us the relationships of the masses or weights of the
reactants to one another and to the products.

UNITS:
The units of mass (weight) may be gram, kilogram, tons etc.

2: MASS - VOLUME RELATIONSHIPS:


Gases are most commonly measured by volume. The molar quantities of gases can be
expressed in terms of volume as well as mass.
Therefore this relation gives a relation between number of moles of a gas and its volume and
allows calculations of quantity of a gas consumed or released in a given chemical change as a
volume as well as mass.

CONVERSION UNITS:
For converting weight into volume or volume into weight (mass). The Avogadros Law is
applied, according to which

Chemistry XI

One gram mole of gas at S.T.P occupy a volume of 2.241dm3 or liters.


22.41dm3 or liters of a gas weigh equal to 1 gm mole (molecular mass expressed in
gram).

3: VOLUME VOLUME RELATIONSHIPS:


In this relationship the volume of a substance (gas or liquid) is calculated from the given
volume of another substance.

EXPLANATION:
The relation between volumes of the gases in a chemical change is based on Gay-lusses Law
of combining volumes, which states that:
Gases react or are formed in a chemical reaction in the ratio of small whole numbers by
volume measured under the same condition of temperature and pressure.
For Example:
2CO + O2 2CO2
Both reactants and products are gases.
The balanced chemical equation tells us that two volumes of carbon monoxide (CO) react
with one volume of oxygen (O2) to yield two volumes of carbon dioxide (CO 2). Thus
coefficients of the formulas gives us the volume volume relationship.

UNITS:
The units of volume may be liters dm3 etc, but the properties remains the same.

LIMITING REACTANTS:
DEFINITION:
The reactant which is present in limited amount and that after the consumption of which the
chemical reaction is stopped is called Limiting Reactant.
As in irreversible chemical reactants, the reactions go to completion in the direction of the
arrow, until one of the reactant which will be the limiting reactant is consumed entirely and
the reaction stops.

GASEOUS STATE:
The state of matter in which molecules are present wide apart and can move freely in the
space provided, it neither has definite volume nor definite shape. The density of gaseous state
is less than other states of matter.

KINETIC MOLECULAR THEORY OF GASES:


Postulates of KMT of gases are given below.

1: LARGE DISTANCE BETWEEN MOLECULES:


All gas consists of small particles called molecule which are widely separated from each
other.

2: NEGLIGIBLE ACTUAL VOLUME:


The actual volume of molecules of a gas is negligible as compared to the volume of the gas.

3: RANDOM ERROR:
The gas molecules are in a state of continuous random motion, travelling in straight paths
between collisions, but in random directions.

Chemistry XI

4: ELASTIC COLLISIONS:
The gas particles continuously collide with one another and with the walls of container their
collision are perfectly elastic (i.e. no loss or gain of energy take place).

5: GAS PRESSURE:
The collision of gas molecules with the walls of container produces gas pressure.

6: NO ATTRACTIVE OR REPULSIVE FORCE:


In an ideal gas there are no attractive or repulsive forces among the molecules. Thus each
molecule acts independently.

7: K.Eave K:
The average kinetic energy of gas molecules is directly proportional to the absolute
temperature.
K.Eave K
and at any given temperature the molecules of all gases possess some average kinetic energy.

BEHAVIOUR OF GASES:
DIFFUSIBILITY:
The distribution or spreading of gas molecules throughout the vessels is known as diffusion.

IN TERMS OF KMT:
The molecules of gas are widely separated and there is large empty space between them due
to which they are free to move. Due to this free movement, molecules of gases intermix and
spread out easily throughout the vessel.

EFFUSION:
The escape of gas molecules from a very small whole of the vessel is called Effusion.
OR
Gas is forced out through a pore or tiny holes in vessels by applying little pressure.

11

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

COMPRESSIBILITY:
The ability of matter by which they can squeeze their volume due to empty space between
molecules by an external pressure.
OR
When external pressure is applied the volume of gas decreases that is known as compression.

IN TERMS OF KMT:
Due to large empty spaces between their molecules gases are easily compressed. When
pressure is applied, molecules come closer to each other and hence gas is compressed.

EXPANSIBILITY:
The increase in temperature causes increase in average kinetic energy resulting in expansion
and gas occupies greater volume.
OR
When pressure on a compressed gas is reduced, the gas molecules rush out the gas expands.
This property of a gas is called expansibility.
Expansibility is the reverse of compressibility.

PRESSURE:
The force exerted by gas molecules on a unit area is called pressure of a gas.
Pressure = Force / Area
At 0C at Sea level 1 atom = 760 mm of Hg
= 76 cm of Hg
= 760 torr
= 14.7 Psi (Pound per square inch)
= 101300 Nm-2 or Pa

IN TERMS OF KMT:
According to KMT gas molecules are in continuous random motion due to which they collide
with one another and with the walls of container. So, gas pressure is the result of collision of
gas molecules with walls of container.

GAS LAWS
BOYLES LAW:
The volume of a given mass of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure exerted on it at
a given temperature.
Mathematically;
V 1/P (at constant temperature)
V = K 1/P
K = VP
PV = K
On the basis of this relation, Boyles law can also be stated as,
The product of pressure and volume of a given mass of gas is always constant at constant
temperature.
Hence,
For initial state of a gas P1V1 = K ----------- (i)
For final state of a gas P2V2 = K ------------ (ii)
Comparing equation (i) and (ii)
P1V1 = P2V2

IN TERMS OF KMT:
If the volume of a gas is decreased at constant temperature, the average velocity of the gas
molecules remains constant, so in collide more frequently with the walls of smaller vessel.
The most frequent collision cause higher pressure.

GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION:
(i)

A graph of volume v/s 1/P gives straight line.

(ii)

A graph between volume and total pressure gives parabolic curve.

LIMITATIONS OF BOYLES LAW:


Gases do not obey Boyles law at higher pressure and lower temperature.

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

CHARLES LAW:
The volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to absolute temperature at given
pressure.
Mathematically;
V T (Pressure is constant)
V = KT
K=V/T
On the basis of this relation, Charles law can also be stated as,
Under constant pressure, the ratio of volume of a given gas to its absolute temperature is
always constant.
Hence,
For initial state of a gas V1 / T1 = K -------------- (i)
For Final state of a gas V2 / T2 = K -------------- (ii)
Comparing equation (i) and (ii)
V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

IN TERMS OF KMT:
A decrease in temperature, decrease the kinetic energy of the gas molecules, that is average
molecular velocity decreases. At constant pressure the decreased velocity causes the gas to
shrink and occupy a smaller volume.

GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION:
A graph between temperature and volume give straight line.

ABSOLUTE ZERO:
The hypothetical temperature at which the volume of all gases reduced to zero and all the
motion cease to exist is called Absolute Zero.
It is -273.16C or 0 K.

GRAPHICAL EXPLANATION OF ABSOLUTE ZERO:

14
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

The volume of a gas decrease by decrease in temperature and theoretically it becomes zero at
-273C or 0 K.
But practically this temperature has never been achieved because gases condense to liquids at
temperature above this point.

LIMITATION OF CHARLES LAW:


This law is not applicable to low temperature and high pressure.

AVOGADROS LAW:
Volume of a gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas at constant
temperature and pressure.
OR
Equal volume of all the gases contains same number of moles at constant temperature and
pressure.
Mathematically;
V n (temperature and pressure are constant)
V = Kn
K=V/n
On the basis of this relation, Avogadros law can also be stated as,
At constant temperature and pressure the ratio of volume of gas and its number of moles is
constant.
For two different sample of gas at same temperature and pressure a relation can be
represented as,
V1 / n1 = V2 / n2

GENERAL GAS EQUATION OR IDEAL GAS EQUATION


OR EQUATION OF STATE:
When we combine all gas laws; i.e. Boyles, Charles, Avogadros law. These equation is
called General Gas Equation.

DERIVATION:
According to Boyles Law
V 1 / P ( T and n constant )
According to Charles Law

V n ( T and P constant )
Combining all three laws:
V 1 / P .T.n
V = R.1/P.T.n
V = RTn/P
PV = nRT ---- General Gas Equation
Here R is constant of proportionally called General Gas constant.
For 1 mole of gas (n=1)
PV = nRT
OR
R = PV/T
If P1, V1 and T1 are the initial pressure, volume and temperature of gas, then
R = P1V1 / T1
And similarly P2, V2 and T2 are final pressure, volume and temperature, then
R = P2V2 / T2
Hence,
P1V1 / T1 = P2V2 / T2
It is another form of general gas equation.

VALUE OF R (GAS CONSTANT):


Value of universal gas constant can be calculated by following formula.
R = PV / nT
It depends upon the unit in which P, V and T are expressed.

VALUE Of R IN dm3 atm mol-1 K-1:


P = 1 atm
V = 22.4 dm3
n = 1 mol.
T = 273 K
R= 1atm 22.4 dm3
1 mol 273 K
R = 0.0821 dm3 atm mol-1 K-1

VALUE OF R IN J mol-1 K-1 OR Nm mol-1 K-1:


P = 101.300 Nm-2
V = 0.0224 m3
T = 273 K
R = 101300 Nm-2 0.0224 m3

Since,
1 Nm = 1 Joule
Therefore,
R = 8.3143 J.mol-1.K-1

GRAHAMS LAW OF DIFFUSION:


In 1881, Graham established a relationship between the rate of diffusion of gases and their
densities which is known as Grahams law of diffusion, which is stated as,
Rate of diffusion of gases is inversely proportional to the square root of the density of that
gas provided the pressure and temperature constant.
Mathematically;
r 1/ d
r = K / d
where,
K = rate constant
r = rate of diffusion
d = density of gas
If rate of diffusion of two gases are compare provided they are at same temperature and then,
for one gas
r1 = K / d1 ---------------- (i)
the other gas,
r2 = K / d2 -------------- (ii)
Comparing equation (i) and (ii)
r1 = K / d1
r2 = K / d2
r1 = d2
r2 = d1
Since, the density of gas is proportional to its molecular mass.
r1 = M 1
r2 M 2
Since the rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the time taken for its diffusion.
T 1 = M1
T2 M2

IN TERMS OF KMT:
According to KMT there are large empty spaces present among gas molecules so of another
gas is introduced the molecules of the gas will occupy the empty spaces. Hence gases can
diffuse easily.
And according to KMT two gases at equal conditions of temperature and pressure have same
kinetic energy.
(K.E) = (K.E)2

This is Grahams law.

As the rate of diffusion is directly proportional to velocity of molecules and density of gas is
directly proportional to mass of molecules.

LIMITATIONS OF GRAHAMS LAW:


Therefore r2/r1 = 1/2
Gases do not obey Grahams law of diffusion at high pressure and low temperature.

APPLICATION OF GRAHAMS LAW:


(i)
(ii)
(iii)

To determine molecular weight and density.


In diluting the poisonsous gases and minimizing their toxic effect.
In separating (a) dlf isotopes of gas
(b) one gas from another gas

PARTIAL PRESSURE:
When two or more gases which do not react chemically, are mix in the same container each
gas will exert the same pressure as it would exert if its alone occupied the volume containing
the mixed gases. This portion of total pressure of mixture is known as its partial pressure.
OR
The pressure exerted by an individual gas in a gaseous mixture is called its partial partial
pressure.

DALTONS LAW OF PARTIAL PRESSURE:


In 1801, John Dalton formulated a law about partial pressure of gases, it is stated as,
The total pressure of a mixture of gases is a sum of partial pressure of gases in the mixture.
Mathematically:
Consider a mixture of three gases A, B and C And
PA is the partial pressure of gas A.
PB is the partial pressure of gas B.
PC is the partial pressure of gas C.
Pt is the total pressure of mixture.
Then, According to Daltons law
18
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

Pt = PA + PB + Pc
As we know the general gas equation PV= nRT.
If PT is the total pressure and nT is the total number of moles.
Then,
PTV = nTRT
PT = nTRT/ V -------------(i)
Similarly, PA is the partial pressure of gas A and nA is the number of moles of gas A.
PA = nART/ V -------------(ii)
Comparing equation (i) and (ii)
PA / PT = nA / nT
PA = nAPT / nT This equation can be used to find out partial pressure.

IN TERMS OF KMT:
In a non reactive mixture of gases each gas exerts a separate on the container because of
collision of its molecules with the walls of container. Thus, the total pressure in the container
is caused by the sum of all the collision.

LIMITATION OF DALTONS LAW:


This law can only be applied for a mixture of gases which do not react chemically.

APPLICATION:
A gas is collected over water also contain some of water vapor. Thus, the pressure exerted by
gas would be pressure of pure gas plus the pressure of water vapors.
Pmoist = Pdry + Pwater vapors
Pdry = Pmoist Pwater vapors
Thus, partial pressure of dry gas can be obtained and its volume at S.T.P can be calculated by
following formula.
V2 = P1T2V1 / T1P2

IDEAL GAS:
An ideal gas is one whose behavior can be predicted precisely on the basis of kinetic
molecular theory and which obeys gas laws at all temperature and pressure.

REAL OR NON-IDEAL GAS:


A gas which does not follow the gas laws at all temperature and pressure and whose behavior
cannot be predicted precisely on the basis of KMT is non-ideal or real gas.

19

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

DEVIATION FROM IDEAL BEHAVIOR:


A gas which obeys gas laws & KMT is called an ideal gas but actually no such gas exists.
The deviation of real gases from ideal behavior is due to two postulates of kinetic molecular
theory which are:
(i)
There are no forces of attraction among the molecules of a gas.
(ii) The actual volume of gas molecules is negligible as compared to the volume of
vessel.
But at high pressure and low temperature the attractive forces among molecules becomes
significant and the actual volume of gas does not remain negligible.

LIQUID STATE:
This state of matter is intermediate between gaseous and solid state. It has definite volume
but no definite shape.

KINETIC THEORY FOR LIQUIDS:


1. All liquids consist of molecules e.g. H2O and C6H6.
2. The molecules of a liquid are very close together and are arranged in random manner.
3. The molecules are free to move. They assume the shape of container. It means liquids
have no definite shape. They can flow and can be poured from one container to
another.
4. Close and compact arrangements of molecules enable liquids to possess definite
volume.
5. The molecules can be compressed to negligible extent.
6. Average kinetic energy of molecules increases by rise of temperature ( Thus, liquids
on heating and contract on cooling).

BEHAVIOR OF LIQUID:
1: DIFFUSIBILITY:
The distribution of liquid molecules throughout the container is called diffusion of liquids
and this property is called Diffusibility.

IN TERMS OF KMT:
The freedom of liquid molecules permits diffusion to take place but the cohesive forces
among the molecules cause diffusion to be slow.

2: COMPRESSIBILITY:
The squeezing of liquid molecules under the influence of external pressure is called
Compressibility.
Liquids are not absolutely incompressible but they may be compressed to a little extend by
high pressure.

IN TERMS OF KMT:
The liquid molecules due to their closeness roll over one another. Owing to very little space
the liquid molecules cannot be pushed close by pressure. Very high pressure is required for
squeezing a liquid.

3: EXPANSION AND CONTRACTION:


A liquid normally expands on heating and contracts on cooling.

IN TERMS OF KMT:
On heating the K.E and velocity of molecules increase, it results in expansion.
On cooling the K.E is lowered and negative forces overcome so molecule take less volume
and contraction occurs.

VISCOSITY:
The internal resistance between the molecules of a liquid to flow due to intermolecular
attraction is called Viscosity.
OR
It is the property by virtue of which it tends to oppose the relative motion between two
adjacent layers.
It is represented by (eta).

UNITS:
It is measured in poise, centipoises and millipoise and S.I unit is Newton second per meter
square (Nsm-2).
1 poise = 1 Nsm-2
1.C.poise = 10-2 Nsm-2
1 millipoise = 10-3 Nsm-2

21
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

FACTORS AFFECTING VISCOSITY:


1: SIZE OF THE MOLECULES:
It is more difficult for larger molecules to slip over one another than small ones. So viscosity
increases with increase in molecular size or weight.
For Example: Grease and oils are more viscous than water because of having large
molecules.

2: MOLECULAR SHAPE:
The irregular shaped molecules offer more resistance to flow than regular shaped molecules.
Example: Honey is very viscous due to irregular shape of its molecules.

3: INTERMOLECULAR FORCES:
The liquids having strong intermolecular forces are more viscous as their molecules are less
easily moved about.
Example: C2H5-OH is more viscous than C2H5-O-C2H5 as alcohol molecules have hydrogen
bond.

4: TEMPERATURE:
With rise in temperature, the K.E increases and intermolecular forces become less effective
and hence viscosity decreases.
Example:
Viscosity of ethyl alcohol is 1.78 poise at 0C and 0.7 poise at 50C.
Viscosity of water is 1.005 poise at 20C while 0.55 at 50C.

5: DENSITY:
The greater the density of liquid, the more viscous will be the liquid and vice versa.

SURFACE TENSION:
The force per unit length acting at right angles of the surface of liquids at a given
temperature is called Surface tension.
OR
Energy per unit area at the surface of liquid>
It is represented by (gamma).
22
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

UNITS:
It is measured in two units dynes/cm and ergs/cm.

FACTORS AFFECTING SURFACE TENSION:


1: INTERMOLECULAR FORCES:
Surface tension of a liquid is directly proportional to intermolecular forces.
Example: Surface tension of water is 72.6 at 20C while that of benzene is 28.9 at 20C.

2: TEMPERATURE:
If temperature increases the surface tension decreases and Vice Versa.

EFFECTS OF SURFACE TENSION:


1: SPEHRICAL FALLING DROP:
Surface tension tends to reduce the surface area of falling drop of liquid. Since all sphere has
least area of a given volume of liquid. Thats why falling drop of liquid are spherical.

2: CAPILLARY ACTION:
The fall or rise of a liquid in capillary tube is called Capillary action.

EXPLANATION:
If a capillary tube is placed in liquid which wets the wall of container the surface area of
liquid is decreased by raising the tube because of surface tension. Such liquid (as water) will
rise in capillary tube until the upward force due to surface tension is just balanced by
downward gravitational pull.
The level of non-wetting liquid in capillary tube will fall below the level of liquid in
surrounding space.

3: CONCAVE & CONVEX SURFACE OF LIQUID:


Liquid which have stronger adhesive forces between liquid molecules and surface of glass
will form concave meniscus/surface e.g. H2O.

While liquids which have stronger cohesive force and do not wet the glass will form convex
meniscus/surface e.g. Hg.

VAPOR PRESSURE:
The vapor pressure of liquid is a measure of tendency of that liquid to evaporate and is
defined as:
The pressure exerted by its vapors when they are in equilibrium with the liquid phase at a
given temperature
It is constant at constant temperature and is independent of the amount of liquid present.

UNITS:
It is measured in following units, mm Hg, atmosphere, N/m2, pascal etc.

FACTORS AFFECTING VAPOR PRESSURE:


1: NATURE OF LIQUID:
Low B.P liquid exerts more vapor pressure and liquid that evaporates readily is said to be
volatile.
Example:
Gasoline exerts more vapor pressure at a given temperature.

2: TEMPERATURE:
Vapor pressure increase with the rise of temperature. This is because average K.E of
molecules increase with the increase of temperature and result in escape of vapors from the
surface.
Example:
Vapor pressure of H2O is 18 torr at 20C while 760 torr at 100C.

3: INTERMOLECULAR FORCES:
Liquids having low intermolecular forces have high vapor pressure, while liquids
With strong force have low vapor pressure.

reduced pressure at low temperature. This process is called Vacuumed Distillation.
By lowering the pressure, boiling point of liquid is reduced and their decomposition is
prevented.

strong that they rearrange well with their new neighbors.

3: DIFFUSIBILITY:

IN TERMS OF KMT:
There is no translational movement of molecules in solid but nevertheless particles are
vibrating at their mean position and this vibration motion is responsible for diffusion in solid.

4: MELTINA:
When Solid is heated at certain temperature it starts changing into liquid this phenomenon is
called melting and this temperature is called melting point of solid.

IN TERMS OF KMT:
When solid is heated, the kinetic energy of molecules increases which increases their
vibration, energy and when it overcome the forces of attraction between molecules the solid
starts melting.

5: SUBLIMATION:
The process by which solids directly change to vapor without passing through liquid phase,
process is called Sublimation.
Such solid is known as Sublime.
Example: Nepthelene, Camphor, NH4Cl etc.

CHAPTER # 3
CROOKS TUBE OR DISCHARGE TUBE EXPERIMENT
PASSAGE OF ELECTRICITY THROUGH GASES UNDER LOW
PRESSURE:
INTRODUCTION:
The first of the subatomic particles to be discovered was electron. The knowledge about the
electron was derived as a result of the study of the electric discharge in the discharge tube by
J.J.Thomson in 1896. This work later extended by W.Crooke.

CONSTRUCTION OF THE TUBE:


33
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

This discharge tube consists of a glass tube with metal electrodes fused in the walls as shown
in the figure.
Through a glass sidearm air can be drawn with a pump. The electrodes are connected to a
source of high voltage.

WORKING OF A DISCHARGE TUBE:


When a very high voltage about 10,000 volts is applied between the two electrodes, no
electric discharge occurs until the part of the air has been pumped out of tube. When the
pressure of the gas inside the tube is less than 1mm, a dark space appears near the cathode
and thread like lines are observed in rest of the tube. On further decrease of pressure the dark
space increases in size. At 0.01 mm Hg it fills the whole tube. The electric discharge passes
between the electrodes and the residual gas in the tube begins to glow. These rays which
proceed from cathode and move away from it at right angle in straight lines are called
cathode rays.

PROPERTIES OF CATHODE RAYS:


They travel in straight lines away from cathode and produce shadow of the object
placed in their paths.
The rays carry a negative charge.
These rays can also be easily deflected by an electrostatic field.
The rays can exert mechanical pressure showing that these consist of material particle
which are moving with kinetic energy.
The produce fluorescence when they strike the glass wall of the discharge tube.
Cathode rays produce x-rays when they strike a metallic plate.
These rays consist of material particle whose e/m resembles with electron.
These rays emerge normally from the cathode and can be focused by using a concave
cathode.

POSITIVE RAYS:
In 1896, Goldstein used a discharge tube with a hole in cathode. He observed that while
cathode rays were emitting away from cathode, there was colored rays produced
simultaneously which passed through the perforated cathode and caused a glow on the wall
opposite to anode. Thomson studied these rays and observed and showed that they consisted
of particles carrying a positive charge. He called them Positive Rays.

PROPERTIES OF POSITIVE RAYS:


These rays travel in straight line in a direction opposite to the cathode.
34
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

These are deflected by electric as well as magnetic field in the way indicating that
they are positively charged.
The charge to mass ratio (e/m) of positive particles varies with the nature of the gas
placed in discharge tube.
Positive rays are produced from the ionization of gas and not from anode electrodes.
Positive rays are deflected in electric field. This deflection shows that these are
positively charged so these are named as protons.

THE INFORMATION
EXPERIMENT:

OBTAINED

FROM

DISCHARGE

TUBE

The negatively charged particles electrons and positively charge particles are the fundamental
part of every atom.

RADIOACTIVITY:
In 1895, Henry Beequeral observed that uranium and its compounds spontaneously emitted
certain type of radiation which affected a photographic plate in dark and were able to
penetrate solid matter. He called these rays as radioactive rays and a substance which
possessed the property of emitting these radioactive rays and a substance which possessed the
property of emitting these radioactive rays was said to be radioactive element and the
phenomenon was called Radioactivity.
On further investigation by Mark Curie, It was found that the radiation emitted from the
element uranium as well as its salts is independent of temperature and source of mineral but
depend upon the quantity of uranium present e.g. pitchblende U3O8 was found to be about
four times more radioactive than uranium.

RADIOACTIVE RAYS:
Soon after the discovery of radium, it was suspected that these rays given out by radium and
other radioactive substances were not of one kind. Rutherford in 1902 devised an ingenious
method for separating these rays from each other by passing them between two oppositely
charged plates. It was observed that the radioactive rays were of three kinds, the one bending
toward negative plate obviously carrying positive charge were called -rays and those
deflected to the positive plate and carrying negative charge were named -rays. The third type
gamma rays pass unaffected and carry no charge.

PROPERTIES OF -RAYS:
These rays consist of positively charge.
These particles are fast moving helium nuclei.
35
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

The velocity of -particles is approximately equal to 1/10th of the velocity of light.


Being relatively large in size, the penetrating power of -rays is very low.
They ionize air and their ionization power is high.

PROPERTIES OF -RAYS:

These rays consist of negatively charged particles.


These particles are fast moving electrons.
The velocity of -particles is approximately equal to the velocity of light.
The penetrating power of -rays is much greater than -rays.
These rays ionize gases to lesser extent.

PROPERTIES OF -RAYS:

Gamma rays do not consist of particles. These are electromagnetic radiations.


They carry no charge so they are not deflected by electric or magnetic field.
Their speed is equal to that of light.
These are weal ionizer of gases.
Due to high speed and non-material nature they have great power of penitrarion.

CHADWICK EXPERIMENT (DISCOBERY OF NEUTRON):


When a light element is bombarded by -particles, these -particles leave the nucleus in an
unstable disturbed state which on settling down to stable condition sends out radioactive rays.
The phenomenon is known as Artificial Radioactivity.
In 1933, Chadwick identified a new particle obtained from the bombardment of beryllium by
-particles. It had a unit mass and carried no charge. It was named Neutron. The process for
this reaction is given below.
Be9 + 2He4 6C12 + 0n1

With the help of artificial radioactivity, the particle neutron was discovered.

SPECTROSCOPIC EXPERIMENT:
After the discovery of fundamental particles which are electron, proton, neutron, the next
question concerned with electronic structure of atom.
The electronic structure of atom was explained by the spectroscopic studies. In this
connection Plancks Quantum theory has great impact on development of theory of structure
of atom.

PLANCKS QUANTUM THEORY:


36
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

In 1900, Max Planck studied the spectral lines obtained from hot body radiations at different
temperatures. According to him:
When atoms or molecules absorb or emit radiant energy, they do so in separate unit of waves
called Quanta or Protons.
Thus light radiation obtained from excited atoms consists of a stream of protons and not
continuous waves.
The energy E of a quantum or proton is given by relation.
E = hv
Where v is the frequency of emitted radiation and h the Plancks constant. The value of h =
6.62 10-27 erg.sec
The main point of this theory is that the amount of energy gained or lost is quantized which
means that energy change occurs in small packets or multiple of those packets, hv, 2hv, 3hv
and so on.

SPECTRA:
A spectrum is an array of waves or particles spread out according to the increasing or
decreasing of some property. E.g. when a beam of light is allowed to pass through a prism, it
splits into seven colors. This phenomenon is called dispersion and the bend of colors is called
spectrum. The spectrum is also known as emission spectrum. Emission spectra are of two
types.
Continuous Spectrum
Line Spectrum

CONTINUOUS SPECTRUM:
When a beam of white light is passed through a prism, different wave length is refracted
through different angles. When received on a screen these form a continuous series of color
bands, violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow and red (VIBGYOR). The colors of this spectrum
are so mixed up that there is no line of between different colors. This series of bands that
form a continuous rainbow of colors is called Continuous Spectrum.

LINE SPECTRUM:
When light emitted from a gas source passes through a prism a different kind of spectrum
may be obtained.

37
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

If the light emitted from the discharge tube is allowed to pass through a prism some discrete
sharp lines on a completely dark background are obtained. Such spectrum is known as line
spectrum. In this spectrum, each line corresponds to a definite wave length.

IDENTIFICATION OF ELEMENT BY SPECTRUM:


Each element produces a characteristic set of lines, so line spectra came to serve as finger
prints for the identification of elements. It is possible because same elements always emit the
same wave length of radiation. Under normal condition only certain wave lengths are emitted
by an element.

RUTHERFORDS ATOMIC MODEL:


EVIDENCE FOR NUCLEUS AND ARRANGEMENTS OF PARTICLES:
Having known that atom contain electrons and a positive ion, Rutherford and Marsden
performed their historic Alpha particle scattering experiment in 1909 to know how and
where these fundamental particles were located in the structure of atom.
Rutherford took a thin sheet of gold with thickness 0.0004cm and bombarded it with particles. He observed that most of the -particles passed straight through golf foil and thus
produced a flash on screen behind it. This indicated that gold atoms had a structure with
plenty or empty space, but some flashes were also seen on portion of screen. This showed
that gold atoms deflected or scattered -particles through large angles so much so that some
of these bounced back to the source.
Based on these observations, Rutherford proposed a model of the atom which is known as
Rutherfords atomic model.

ASSUMPTION DRAWN FROM MODEL:


1: Atom has a tiny dense central core or nucleus which contains practically the entire mass of
the atom leaving the rest of atom almost empty.
2: the nucleus carries a positive charge +2e.
3: The electrons were moving in orbits or closed circular paths around the nucleus like
planets around the sun.
4: The greater part of atomic volume comprises of empty space in which electrons revolve
and spin.

WEAKNESS OF RUTHERFORD ATOMIC MODEL:

38
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

According to the classical electromagnetic theory if a charged particle accelerate around on


oppositely charge particle it will radiate energy. Its speed will decrease and it will go into
spiral motion finally falling into the nucleus. Similarly if an electron moving through
Orbitals of ever decreasing radii would give raise to radiations of all possible frequencies. In
other words, it would given rise to a continuous spectrum. In actual practice, atom gives
discontinuous spectrum.

X-RAYS AND ATOMIC NUMBER:


In 1895, W.Roentgen discovered that when high energy electrons from cathode collide with
the anode in the Crookes tube, very penetrating is produced. These rays were named as XRays.

EXPLANATION:
When an electron coming from the cathode strike with anode in the crooks tube. It can
remove an electron from the inner shell of the atom. Due to removal of this electron, the
electronic configuration of this ion is unstable and an electron from orbital of higher energy
drops into inner orbital by emitting energy in form of photon. This photon corresponds to
electromagnetic radiation in x-rays region.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN WAVE LENGTH & NUCLEAR CHARGE:


In 1911, Mosley established a relationship between the wave length and nuclear charge. He
found that when cathode rays struck elements used as anode targets in the discharge tube,
characteristic x-rays were emitted. The wave length of the x-rays emitted decreases regularly
with the increase of atomic mass. On careful examination of his data, Mosley found that the
number of positive charges on the nucleus increases from atom to atom by single electronic
unit. He called the number of positive charges as the atomic number.

BOHRS THEORY:
Rutherfords model of atom fails to explain the stability of atom and appearance of the line
spectra. Bohr in 1913 was first to present a simple model of atom which explained the
appearance of line spectra.
Some of the postulates of the Bohrs theory are given below:
1: An atom has a number of stable orbits or stationary states in which an electron can reside
without emission or absorption of energy.

39
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

2: An electron may pass from one of these non-radiating states to another of lower energy
with the emission of radiations whose energy equals the energy difference between the initial
and final states.
3: In any of these states the electrons move in a circular path about the nucleus.
4: the motion of electron in these states is governed by the ordinary laws of mechanics and
electrostatic provided its angular momentum is an integral multiple of h/2.

It can be written as:


mvr = nh/2
Here mvr becomes the angular momentum of electron. Thus Bohrs first condition defining
the stationary states could be stated as:
Only those orbits were possible in which the angular momentum of the electrons would be
an integral multiple of h/2.
These stationary states correspond to energy levels in atom.

CALCULATION OF RADIUS OF ORBITS:


Consider an electron of charge e revolving.
Let m be the mass of electron r the radius of orbit and v the tangential velocity of
revolving electron.
The electrostatic force of attraction between the nucleus and electron according to coulombs
law.
= Z e x e / r2
The centrifugal force acting on the electron.
= mv2 / r
Bohr assumed that these two opposing faces must be balanced each other exactly to keep the
electron in an orbit.
Therefore,
Zee / r2 = mv2 / r
Multiply both side by r
r Ze2 / r2 = r mv2 / r
Ze2 / r = mv2
Or r = Ze2 / mv2 ------------ (i)
The Bohrs postulate states that only those orbits are possible in which:
mvr = nh / 2
Therefore, V = nh / 2mr

Substituting the value of V in equation 1


r = Ze2 / m (nh / 2mr)2
Or r = Ze2 42 mr2 / n2h2

Or r = n2h2 / 42mZe2 --------------- (ii)
This equation gives the radii of all possible stationary states. The values of constants present
in this equation are as follows.
H = 6.625 10-27 ergs.sec OR 6.625 10-37J.s
Me = 9.11 10-28 gm OR 9.11 10-31 kg
E = 4.802 10-10 e.s.n OR 1.602 10-19 C
By substituting these values we get for first shell of H atom.
r = 0.529 10-8 m OR 0.529
The above equation may also be written as:
r = n2 (h2 / 42mZe2) = n2a0 -------------- (2)
For the first orbit n = 1 and r = 0.529. This is the value of the terms in the bracket sometimes
written as a0 called Bohrs radius. For second shell n = 2 and for third orbit n = 3 and so on.

HYDROGEN ATOM SPECTRUM:


BALMER SERIES:
The simplest element is hydrogen which contains only one electron in its valence shell.
Ballmer in 1885 studied the spectrum of hydrogen. For this purpose he used hydrogen gas in
the discharge tube. Ballmer observed that hydrogen atom spectrum consisted of a series of
lines called Ballmer Series. Ballmer determined the wave number of each of the lines in
series and found that the series could be derived by a simple formula.
V = RH = 1.09677 10-5 cm-1

LYMAN SERIES:
Lyman series is obtained when the electron returns to ground. State i.e. n = 1 from higher
energy level n2 = 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 etc. This series of lines belongs to the ultraviolet region of
spectrum. It is represented by the following equation.
V = RH (1 / 12 1 / n22)
Where n2 = 2, 3, 4, 5 etc.

PASCHEN SERIES:
Paschen series is obtained when the electron returns to the 3 rd shell i.e. n = 3 from higher
energy levels n2 = 4, 5, 6 etc. This series belongs to Infrared region. The equation for paschen
series may be written as:
V = RH (1 / 32 1 / n22)

BRACKETT SERIES:
This series is obtained when an electron jumps from higher energy levels to 4 th+ energy level.
The equation for this series is:
V = RH (1 / 42 1 / n22)

PFUND SERIES:
Pfund series is obtained when an electron jumps from higher energy level to 5th energy level.

HEINSBERG UNCERTAINTY PRINCIPLE:


According to Bohrs theory an electron was considered to be a particle but electron also
behaves as a wave according to de-Broglie.
Due to this dual nature of electron in 1925 Heinsberg gave a principle known as Heinsberg
Uncertainty Principle which is stated as:
It is impossible to calculate the position and momentum of a moving electron
simultaneously.
It means that if one was known exactly it would be impossible to know the other exactly.
Therefore if the uncertainty in position is x then according to this principle the product of
these two uncertainties may written as:
px. x = h
So if one of these uncertainties is known exactly then the uncertainty in its determination is
zero and the other uncertainty will become infinite which is according to the principle.

ENERGY LEVELS AND SUB-LEVELS:


According to Bohrs atomic theory, electrons are revolving around the nucleus in circular
orbits which are present at different distance from nucleus. These orbits are associated with
definite energy of electron increasing outwards from nucleus, so these orbits are referred as
Energy levels or Shells.
These shells or energy levels are designated as 1, 2, 3, 4 etc Or K, L, M, N etc.
The spectral lines which correspond to the transition of an electron from one energy level to
another consists of several separate close lying lines as doubles, triples, and so on. It indicates
that some of electrons of given energy level have different energies or the electron belonging
to same energy level may differ in their energy. So the energy levels are accordingly divided
into sub-energy levels which denoted by letters s, p, d, f (sharp, principle, diffuse and
fundamental).

The number of sub-levels in a given level of energy or shell is equal to its value of n.
e.g. in third shell where n=3 three sublevels s, p, d are possible.

QUANTUM NUMBERS:
There are four quantum numbers which describe the electron in an atom.

1: PRINCIPAL QUANTUM NUMBER:


It is represented by n, which describes the size of orbital Or energy level. This energy level
K, L, M, N, O correspond to n= 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 etc.
If n = 1 then electron is in K shell.
n = 2 then electron is in L shell.
n = 3 then electron is in M shell.

2: AZIMUTHAL QUANTUM NUMBER:


This quantum number is represented by l, which describes the shape of the orbit. The value
of Azimuthal quantum number may be calculated by a relation.
l= 0 n 1
So for different shell the value of l are
n=1
K shell l = 0
n=2
L shell l = 0, 1
n=3
M shell l = 0, 1, 2
n=4
N shell l = 0, 1, 2, 3
when l = 0 the orbit is s.
when l = 1 the orbit is p.
when l = 2 the orbit is d.
when l = 3 the orbit is f.

3: MAGNETIC QUANTUM NUMBER:


It is represented by m and explains the magnetic properties of an electron. The value of m
depends upon the value of l. It is given by:
m = + l 0 -1
where l = 1, m has three values (-1, 0, 1) which correspond to p orbital. Similarly,
when l = 2, m has five values which correspond to d orbit.

4: SPIN QUANTUM NUMBER:

43
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

It is represented by s which represents the spin of a moving electron. This spin may be either
clockwise or anticlockwise so the values for s may be +1/2, 0, -1/2.

PAULIS EXCLUSION PRINCIPLE:


According to this principle,
No tow electrons in the same atom can have the same four quantum number.
Consider an electron is present in 1s orbital. For this electron n = 1, l = 0, m = 0. Suppose the
spin of this electron is s = +1/2 which will be indicated by an upward arrow . Now if another
electron is put in the same orbital (1s) for that electron n=1, l = 0, m = 0. It can occupy this
orbital only if the direction of its spin is opposite to that of the first electron so s= -1/2 which
is symbolized by downward arrow . From this example, we can observe the application of
Paulis exclusion principle on electronic structure of atom.

SHAPES OF ORBITS:
The shape of s orbital is spherical so the probability of finding the electron is maximum
because the electrons are uniformly distributed around the nucleus.
The p orbital are dumbbell shaped. These are oriented in space along the three mutually
perpendicular axis (x, y, z) and are called px, py, pz. these are degenerate orbital of equal
energy. Each p orbital has two lobes. One of which is labeled (+) and other ( - ).

ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION:
The distribution of electrons in the available orbital is proceeded according to these rules.
1: Pauli exclusion principle
2: Aufbau rule
3: (n+l) rule
4: Hunds rule

AUFBAU PRINICIPLE:
It is stated as:
The orbital are filled up with electrons in the increasing Order of their energy.
It means that the orbital are filled with the electrons according to their energy level. The
orbital of minimum energy are filled up first and after it the orbital of higher energy are filled.

HUNDS RULE:
If orbital of equal are provided to electron then electron will go to different orbital and having
their parallel spin.

In other words we can say that electrons are distributed among the orbital of a sub-shell in
such a way as to give the maximum number of unpaired electrons and have the same
direction of spin. According to this rule the electronic configuration of some elements are
given below:
N = 1s2, 2s2, 2px1. 2py1, 2pz1
O = 1s2, 2s2, 2px2 . 2py1, 2pz1

(n + 1) RULE:
According to this rule:
The orbital with the lowest value of (n+1) fills first but when two orbital have the same
value of (n+1) the orbital with the lower value of n fills first.
For the electronic configuration the order of the orbital is as follows:
1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 4d, 5p, 6s etc

ATOMIC RADIUS:
For homonuclear diatomic molecules the atomic radii may be defined as:
The half of the distance between the two nuclei present in a homonuclear diatomic molecule
is called atomic radii.
In case of hetronuclear molecule like AB, the bond length is calculated which is
(rA + rB) and if radii of any one is known the other can be calculated.
For the element present in periodic table the atomic radius decreases from left to right due to
the more attraction on the valence shell but it increases down the group with increases of the
number of shells.

IONIC RADIUS:
Ionic radius is defined as:
The distance between nucleus of an ion and the point up to which nucleus has influence of
its electron cloud.
When an electron is removed from a neutral atom the atom is left with an excess of positive
charge called a cat ion. e.g.
Na Na+ + eBut when an electron is added in a neutral atom a negative ion or onion is formed.
Cl + e- Cl

as the atomic radius, the atomic radii are3 known from -rays analysis. The value of ionic
radius depends upon the ions that surround it.
Ionic radii if cations have smaller radii then the neutral atom because when an electron is
removed. The effective charge on nucleus increases and pulls the remaining electrons with a
greater force.
Ionic radii of an ions have a larger radii then the neutral atom because an excess of negative
charge results in greater electron repulsion.
Radius of Na- atom = 1.57
Radius of Na+ atom = 0.95 (smaller than neutral atom)
Radius of Cl atom = 0.99
Radius of Cl- atom = 1.81 (larger than neutral atom)

IONIZATION POTENTIAL:
DEFINATION:
The amount of energy required to remove most loosely bounded electron from the outermost
shell of an atom in its gaseous state is called ionization potential energy.
It is represented as:
M(gas) M+(gas) + eThe energy required to remove first electron is called first I.P. The energy required to remove
2nd or 3rd electron is called 2nd I.P or 3rd I.P.
M(gas) M+(gas) + eE = 1st I.P
M+(gas) M++(gas) + eE = 2nd I.P
M++(gas) M+++(gas) + eE = 3rd I.P

FACTORS ON WHICH I.P DEPENDS:


SIZE OF THE ATOM:
If the size if an atom is bigger than the I.P of atom is low, but if the size of atom is smaller
than I.P will be high, due to fact if we move down the group in periodic table. The I.P value
decreases down the group.

MAGNITUDE OF NUCLEAR CHARGE:


If nuclear charge of atom is greater than force of attraction on the valence electron is also
greater so the I.P value for atom is high therefore as we move from left to right in periodic
table the I.P is increased.

SCREENING EFFECT:

The shell present between the nucleus and valence electrons also decreases the force of
attraction due to which I.P will be low for such elements.

ELECTRON AFFINITY:
DEFINATION:
The amount of energy liberated by an atom when an electron is added in it is called electron
affinity.
It shows that this process is an exothermic change which is represented as:
Cl + e- ClH = =348kj/mole

FACTORS ON WHICH ELECTRON AFFINITY DEPENDS:


SIZE OF ATOM:
If the size of atom is small, force of attraction from the nucleus on the valence electron will
be high and hence the E.A for the element will also be high but if the size of atom is larger,
the E.A for these atoms will be low.

MAGNITUDE OF NUCLEAR CHARGE:


Due to greater nuclear charge the force of attraction on the added electron is greater so E.A of
the atom is also high.

ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION:
The atom with stable configuration has no tendency to gain an electron so the E.A of such
elements is zero. The stable configuration may exist in following cases.
Inert gas configuration
Fully filled orbital
Half filled orbital

ELECTRONEGATIVITY:
The force of attraction by which an atom attracts a shared pair of electrons is called electro
negativity.

CHAPTER # 4
CHEMICAL BOND
INTRODUCTION:
Atom of all the elements exert noble gases have incomplete outermost orbits and tends to
complete them chemical combination with the other atoms.
In 1916, W. Kossel described the ionic bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from
one atom to another and also in 1916 G.N. Lewis described about the formation of covalent
bond which is formed by the mutual sharing between two atoms.
Both these scientists based their ideas on the fact that atoms attain greatest stability when
they acquire an inert gas electronic configuration.

CHEMICAL BOND:
When two or more than two atoms are combined with each other in order to complete their
link between them is produced which is known as Chemical Bond.
OR
The force if attraction which holds atoms together in the molecule of a compound is called
Chemical Bond.

TYPES OF CHEMICAL BOND:


There are three main types of chemical bond.
1: Ionic bond or electrovalent bond
2: Covalent bond
3: Co-ordinate covalent bond or Dative covalent bond

IONIC BOND OR ELECTROVALENT BOND:


A chemical bond which is formed by the complete shifting of electron between two atoms is
called Ionic bond OR Electrovalent bond.
OR
The electrostatic attraction between positive and negative ions is called Ionic bond.

CONDITIONS FOR THE IONIC BOND FORMATION:


1: ELECTRONEGATIVITY:
Ionic bond is formed between the elements having a difference of electronegative more than
1.7 or equal to 1.7 eV.
Therefore ionic bond is generally formed between metals (low electronegative) and nonmetal (high electronegative) elements.
2: IONIZATION POTENTIAL:
We know that ionic bond is formed by the transference of electron from one atom to another,
so in the formation of ionic bond an element is required which can lose its electron from the
outer most shell, it is possible to remove electron from the outer most shell of metals because
of their low ionization potential values.
3: ELECTRON AFFINITY:
In the formation if ionic bond an element is also required which can gain an element is also
required which can gain electron. Since non-metals can attract electrons with a greater force
due to high electro negativity. So a non-metal is also involved in the formation of ionic bond
due to high electron affinity.
EXAMPLE OF IONIC BOND:
In order to understand ionic bonds consider the example of NaCl.
During the formation of ionic bond between Na and Cl 2, Sodium loses one electron to form
Na+ ion while chlorine atom gains this electron to form Cl - ion. When Na+ ion and Cl- ion
attract to each other NaCl is formed. The stability if NaCl is due to the decrease in the energy.
These energy changes which are involved in the formation of ionic bond between Na and Cl
are as follows:
i.
Sodium has one valence electron. In order to complete its octet Na loses its valence
electron. The loss of the valence electron required 495 KJ/mole.
Na Na+ + e- H = 495 KJ/mole
ii.
Chlorine atom has seven electrons in its valence shell. It requires only one electron to
complete its octet, so chlorine gains this electron of sodium and release -348 KJ/mole
energy.
Cl + e ClH = -348 KJ/mole
Here the energy difference is 147 KJ/mole (495 348 = 147). This loss of energy is balanced
when oppositely charged ions are associated to form a crystal lattice.
iii.
In third step, positively charged Na+ ion and negatively charged Cl- ion attract to each
other and a crystal lattice is formed with a definite pattern.
+
Na + Cl- Na+ClH = -788 KJ/mole
49

Chemistry XI

This energy which is released when one mole of gaseous ions arrange themselves in definite
pattern to form lattice is called Lattice energy.
From this example: We can conclude that it is essential for the formation of ionic bond that
the sum of energies released in the second and third steps must be greater than the energy
required for the first step.

CHARACTERISTICS OF IONIC COMPOUNDS:


1: An ionic compound the oppositely charged ions are tightly packed with each other. So,
these compounds exist in solid state.
2: Due to strong attractive forces between ions a large amount of energy is required to melt or
to boil the compound and hence the melting and boiling points of ionic compound are
generally high.
3: Ionic compounds are soluble in water but insoluble in organic solvents like benzene CCl 2
etc.
4: In the aqueous solution, the ionic compounds are good electrolytes, because in water the
interionic forces are so weakened that the ions are separated and free to move under the
influence of electric current. Due to this free movement of ions, the ionic compounds conduct
electricity in their solutions.

COVALENT BOND:
A link which is formed by the mutual sharing of electrons between two atoms is called
Covalent bond.
Explanation:
In the formation of covalent bond, mutual sharing of electron takes place. This mutual
sharing is possible in non-metals, therefore covalent bond is generally formed between the
atoms of non-metals.
For example:
In Cl2 molecule, two atoms of chlorine are combined with each other to form Cl 2 molecule.
Each atom of chlorine having seven electrons in its valence shell. These atoms are united
with each other by sharing one of its valence electron as shown:
:Cl

Cl: :Cl :Cl OR Cl - Cl

In this molecule, one shared pair of electrons forms a single covalent bond between two
chlorine atoms with the formation of a covalent bond the energy of the system is also
decreased.
Cl + Cl Cl Cl H = -242KJ/mole

This released energy lowered the energy of the stability of the compound is also increased.

TYPES OF COVALENT BOND:


There are three main types of covalent bond.
1: SINGLE COVALENT BOND:
When a covalent bond is formed by sharing of one electron from each atom, then it is called
Single Covalent bond and denoted by ( ) single line between the two bonded atoms.
e.g. Cl Cl, H H, H Br etc.
2: DOUBLE COVALENT BOND:
In a covalent bond, if two electrons are shared from each of the bonded atom then this
covalent bond is called Double Covalent bond and denoted by () two lines.
e.g. O O O: :O
3: TRIPLE COVALENT BOND:
When a covalent bond is formed by sharing of three electrons from each atom then this type
of covalent bond is called Triple Covalent bond and denoted by () three lines between the
two bonded atoms.
e.g. N N N: :N
The bond distance of multiple bonds is shorter and the bond energies are higher.

CHARACTERISTICS OF COVALENT COMPOUND:


The main characteristic properties of covalent compounds are as follows:
1: The covalent compound exists as separate covalent molecules, because the particles are
electrically neutral so they possess solid, liquid or gaseous state. This intermolecular force of
attraction among the molecules.
2: Since the covalent compound exist in all the three states of matter so their melting points
and boiling points may be high or low.
3: Covalent compounds are non-electrolytes so they do not conduct electricity from their
aqueous solution.
4: Covalent compounds are generally insoluble in water and similar polar solvent but soluble
in the organic solvents.

CO-ORDINATE OR DATIVE COVALENT BOND:


It is a type of covalent bond in which both the shared electrons are donated only by one atom,
this type of bond is called co-ordinate covalent bond.
The co-ordinate covalent bond between two atoms is denoted by an arrow (). The atom
which donates an electron pair is called as a donor of electron and the other atom involved in
this bond is called acceptor.
e.g. A + B A : B OR A B

EXAMPLES OF CO-ORDINATE COVALENT BOND:


1: FORMATION OF NH4+ RADICAL:
Electronic configuration of nitrogen is 1s2, 2s2, 2p3. So nitrogen contains five electrons in the
valence shell which are shared with three hydrogen atom to form three covalent bond.

Moment and represented by .

Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

The extent of tendency of a molecule to be oriented under the influence of an electric field is
called Dipole Moment.

MATHEMATICAL REPRESENTATION OF DIPOLE MOMENT:


Suppose the charge present on a polar molecule is denoted by e and the separation between
the two oppositely charged poles of the molecule isd, and then the produce of these two
may be written as:
E=
Where is dipole moment.

DIPOLE MOMENT IN DIATOMIC MOLECULES:


The diatomic molecules which are made up of similar atoms will be non-polar and their
dipole moment is zero but the diatomic molecules made up of two different atoms e.g. HCl or
HI are polar and have some dipole moment. The value of the dipole moment depends upon
the difference of electro negativities of the two bonded atoms. If the difference of electro
negativity between the atoms is greater, the polarity and also the dipole moment of the
molecule is greater e.g.
The dipole moment of HCl = 1.03 debye
Whereas dipole moment of HF = 1.90 debye

DIPOLE MOMENT OF POLY ATOMIC MOLECULES:


In poly atomic molecules, the dipole moment of molecules depends upon the polarity of the
bond as well as the geometry of the molecule. Some examples for dipole moment in poly
atomic molecule are given below.
1: DIPOLE MOMENT IN CO2:
The molecular structure of Co2 is linear in which the angle between oxygen carbon and
oxygen is 180 as shown in figure.
O 5 C5 =
The dipole moment for each C=O bond is 2.3 Debye, but due to the linear structure of the
molecule, the dipole moment of the two C = O bonds cancel each other and net dipole
moment of the molecule is zero.
2: DIPOLE MOMENT IN CS2:
The molecular structure of CS2 is also linear as shown.
S-8 = C+8 = S
Due to this linear structure of the dipole moment of C = S bond of one side is cancelled by
the dipole moment of other C = S so the dipole moment of the molecule is zero.

The molecular structure of H2O is angular as shown.
O-5
H+5
H+5
Due to this angular structure the two O H bonds do not cancel the dipole moment of each
other. Therefore H2O molecule has a net dipole moment.

UNITS OF DIPOLE MOMENT:


In S.I units, dipole moment is measured in coulomb-meter (c m). However commonly used
unit is Debye (D).

IONIC CHARACTER OF COVALENT BOND:


In homonuclear diatomic molecules like Cl2, O2, I2, H2 both the atoms are identical so the
shared electrons are equally attracted due to identical electro negatives and hence the
molecules are non-polar.
When two dissimilar atoms are linked by a covalent bond the shared electrons are not
attracted equally by the two bonded atoms. Due to unsymmetrical distribution of electrons
one end of the molecules acquire partial positive charge and the other end acquire a partial
negative charge. This character of a covalent bond is called Ionic Character of a covalent
bond.
The ionic character of a covalent bond depends upon the difference of electro negativity of
the two dissimilar atoms joined with each other in a covalent bond. E.g. the H F bond is
43% ionic whereas the H Cl bond is 17% ionic. The ionic character greatly affects the
properties of a molecules. E.g. melting points, boiling point of polar molecules are high and
they are soluble in polar solvent like H2O. Similarly the presence of partial polar character
shortens the covalent bond and increases the bond energies.

BOND ENERGY:
The amount of energy required to break a bond between two atoms in a diatomic molecule is
known as Bond Energy.
OR
The energy releasing in forming a bond from the free atoms is also known as Bond Energy.
It is expressed in Kilo Joules per mole or KCl/mole.

H(g) + H(g) 2 H(g)


H = -435 KJ/mole
OR
H(g) + H(g) H H
H = -345 KJ/mole
Its can be observed from this example that the breaking of bond is endothermic whereas the
formation of the bond is exothermic.
2: The bond energy for oxygen molecule is:
O O(g) 2O(g)
H = 498 KJ/mole
O(g) + O(g) O O
H = -498 KJ/mole
Bond energy of a molecule also measures the strength of the bond. Generally bond energies
of polar bond are greater than pure covalent bond.
Cl Cl 2Cl
H = 244 KJ/mole
+
H Cl H + Cl
H = 431 KJ/mole
The value of bond energy also depends upon the bond and greater would be the bond energy
e.g. triple bonds are usually shorter than the double bond therefore the bond energy for triple
bond is greater than double bond.

SIGMA AND Pi BOND:


When the two orbital which are involved in a covalent bond are symmetric about an axis then
the bond formed between these orbital is called Sigma Bond.
OR
A bond which is formed by head to head overlap of atomic orbital is called Sigma Bond.
EXPLANATION:
In the formation of a sigma bond the atomic orbital lies on the same axis and the overlapping
of these orbital is maximum therefore, all such bonds in which regions of highest density
around the bond axis are termed as sigma bond.

TYPES OF OVERLAPPING IN SIGMA BOND:


There are three types of overlapping in the formation of sigma bond.
1: S S orbital overlapping
2: S P orbital overlapping
3: P P orbital overlapping
In all the three types, when the two atomic orbital are overlapped with each other two
molecular orbital are formed, In these two molecular orbital the energy if one orbital is
greater than the atomic orbital which is known as Sigma ant bonding orbital while the energy
of the other orbital is less than the atomic orbital this orbital of lower energy is called Sigma
bonding orbital and the shared electron are always present in the Sigma bonding orbital.

1: S S ORBITAL OVERLAPPING:
In order to explain S S overlapping consider the example of H2 molecule in this molecule 1s
orbital of one hydrogen overlaps with 1s orbital of other hydrogen to form sigma bonding
orbital. Due to this bonding a single covalent bond is formed between the two hydrogen
atoms. The two molecular orbital formed due to this overlapping are shown below.

2: S P ORBITAL OVERLAPPING:
This type of overlapping takes place in H Cl molecule. 1s orbital of hydrogen overlaps with
1p orbital of chlorine to form a single covalent bond. In this overlapping two molecular
orbital are formed, one of the lower energy while the other orbital is of higher energy. The
shapes of these orbital are as follows:

3: P P ORBITAL OVERLAPPING:
This type of overlapping takes place in fluorine molecule. In this mole 1p orbital of a fluorine
atom is overlapped with 1p orbital of the other fluorine atom. The molecular orbital formed in
this overlapping are given in the figure.

Pi BOND:
When the two atomic orbital involved in a covalent bond are parallel to each other then the
bond formed between them is called Pi bond.
In this overlapping, two molecular orbital are also formed the lower energy molecular orbital
is called bonding orbital while the higher energy molecular orbital is called anti bonding
orbital. The shape of these molecular orbital are as follows:

HYBRIDIZATION:
The process in which atomic orbital of different energy and shape are mixed together to form
new set of equivalent orbital of the same energy and same shape.
There are many different types of orbital hybridization but we will discuss. Here only three
main types.

1: Sp3 HYBRIDIZATION:
The mixing of one S and three p orbital to form four equivalents Sp 3 hybrid orbital is called
Sp3 hybridization. These Sp3 orbital are directed from the center of a regular tetrahedron to its
four corners. The angles between tetrahedrally arranged orbital are 109.5.
Consider the example of CH4 molecule. The electronic configuration of C atom is
1s2, 2s2, 2p1x, 2p1y, 2pz

It has two partially filled 2p orbital which indicate that it is divalent but carbon behaves as
tetravalent in most of its compounds. It is only possible if one electron from 2s orbital is
promoted to an empty 2pz orbital to get four equivalent Sp3 hybridized orbital.
The four Sp3 hybrid orbital of the carbon atom overlap 1s-orbital of four hydrogen atoms to
form a methane CH4 molecule.

2: Sp2 HYBRIDIZATION:
The mixing of one S and two p orbital to form three orbital of equal energy is called Sp 2 or
3Sp2 hybridization. Each Sp2 orbital consists of S and P in the ratio of 1:2. These three orbital
are co-planner and at 120angle as shown.
A typical example of this type of hybridization is of ethylene molecule. In ethylene, two Sp 2
hybrid orbital of each carbon atom share and overlap with 1s orbital of two hydrogen atoms
to form two bonds. While the remaining Sp 2 orbital on each carbon atom overlaps to form a
bond. The remaining two unhybridized p orbital (one of each) are parallel and
perpendicular to the axis joining the two carbon nuclei. These generate a parallel overlap and
results in the formation of 2 orbital. Thus a molecule of ethylene contain five bonds and
one bond.

3: Sp HYBRIDIZATION:
When one S and one p orbital combine to give two hybrids orbital the process is called Sp
hybridization. The Sp hybrid orbital has two lobes one with greater extension in shape than
the other and the lobes are at an angle of 180 from each other. Its means that the axis of the
two orbital form a single straight line as shown.
Now consider the formation of acetylene molecule HC Ch. The two C H bonds are
formed due to Sp S overlap and a triple bond between two carbon atoms consists of an
bond and two bonds. The sigma bond is due to Sp Sp overlap whereas bonds are formed
as a result of parallel overlap between the unhybridized four 2p orbital of the two carbon.

VALENCE SHELL ELECTRON PAIR REPULSION THEORY:


The covalent bonds are directed in space to give definite shapes to the molecules. The
electron pairs forming the bonds are distributed in space around the central atom along
definite directions. The shared electron pairs as well as the lone pair of electrons are
responsible for the shape of molecules.
Sidwick and Powell in 1940 pointed out that the shapes of the molecules could be explained
on the basis of electron pairs present in the outermost shell of the central atom. Pairs of
electrons around the central atom are arranged in space in such a way so that the distances
between them are maximum and coulumbic repulsion of electronic cloud are minimized.

The known geometrics of many molecules based upon measurement of bond angles shows
that lone pairs of electrons occupy more space then bonding pairs. The repulsion between
electronic pairs in valence shell decreases in the following order.
Lone pair Lone pair > Lone pair Bond pair > Bond pair Bond pair
When we apply this theory we can see the variation of angle in the molecular structures.
Consider the molecular structures of NH3, CH4 and H2O.
Variations from ideal bond angles are caused by multiple covalent bonds and lone electron
pairs both of which require space than single covalent bonds are therefore cause compression
of surrounding bond angles.
Thus the number if pairs of electrons in the valence shell determine the overall molecular
shape.

STRUCTURE OF BeCl2:
The two bond pairs of electrons is BeCl2 arrange themselves as far apart as possible in order
to minimize the repulsion between them.
The only arrangement which can given to satisfy this condition is linear.

STRUCTURE OF BF3 OR BCl3:


In this molecule three bond pairs are present around boron, to arrange themselves as far apart
as possible a trigonal structure is fromed
It should therefore be a planar triangular molecule.

HYDROGEN BOND:
When hydrogen is bonded with a highly electro negative element such as nitrogen oxygen,
fluorine. The molecule will be polarized and dipole is produced. The slightly positive
hydrogen atom is attracted by the slightly negatively charged electro negative atom. An
electrostatic attraction between the neighboring molecules is setup when the positive pole of
one molecule attracts the negative pole of the neighboring molecule. This type of attractive
force which involved hydrogen is known as Hydrogen bonding.
Hydrogen bonding causes the association of molecules with each other.
Example of hydrogen bonding are H2O and HF.
The hydrogen bonding is the strongest of the secondary bond, but it is much weak than a
normal covalent bond.

The hydrogen bonding greatly affects the physical properties of the molecules. Due to this
bond the melting point, boiling point, density and viscosity the compounds are increased.

ENERGETICS OF CHEMICAL REACTION
THERMODYNAMICS:
It is a branch of chemistry which deals with the heat energy change during a chemical
reaction.

TYPES OF THERMODYNAMICAL REACTION:


Thermo-chemical reactions are of two types.
1: Exothermic Reactions
2: Endothermic Reactions

1: EXOTHERMIC REACTION:
A chemical reaction in which heat energy is evolved with the formation of product is known
as Exothermic reaction.
An exothermic process is generally represented as:
Reactants Products + Heat

2: ENDOTHERMIC REACTION:
A chemical reaction in which heat energy is absorbed during the formation of product is
known as Endothermic reaction.
Endothermic reaction is generally represented as:
Reactants + Heat Products

THERMODYNAMIC TERMS:
1: SYSTEM:
Any real or imaginary portion of the universe which is under consideration is called System.
2: SURROUNDINGS:
All the remaining portion of the universe which is present around a system is called
Surroundings.

3: STATE:
The state of a system is described by the properties such as temperature pressure and volume
when a system undergoes a change of state, it means that the final description of the system is
different from the initial description of temperature, pressure or volume.

PROPERTIES OF SYSTEM:
The properties of a system may be divided into two main types.

1: INTENSIVE PROPERTIES:
These properties which are independent of the quantity of matter are called intensive
properties.
e.g. melting point, boiling point, viscosity, surface lension, refractive index etc.

2: EXTENSIVE PROPERTIES:
Those properties which depend upon the quantity of matter are called extensive properties.
e.g. mass, volume, enthalpy, entropy etc.

FIRST LAW OF THE THERMODYNAMICS:


This law was given by Helmholtz 1917. According to this law:
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed but it can be changed from one form to
another.
In other words the total energy of a system and surroundings must remain constant.

MATHEMATICAL
DERIVATION
THERMODYNAMICS:

OF

FIRST

LAW

OF

Consider a gas is present in a cylinder which contains a frictionless piston as shown.


Let a quantity of heat q is a provided to the system from the surrounding. Suppose the
internal energy of the system is E and after the absorption of q amount of heat it changes to
E2. Due to the increase of this internal energy the collisions offered by the molecules also
increases or in other words the internal pressure of the system is increased after the addition
of q amount of heat with the increase of internal pressure the piston of the cylinder moves in
the upward direction to maintain the pressure constant so a work is also done by the system.
Therefore if we apply first law of thermodynamic on this system we can write.
q = E2 E1 + W
q = E + W
60
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

OR
E = q w
This is the mathematical representation of first law of thermodynamics.

PRESSURE VOLUME WORK:


Consider a cylinder if a gas which contain a frictionless and weightless piston, as shown
above. Let the area of cross-section of the piston = a
Pressure on the piston = P
The initial volume of the gases = V1
And the final volume of the gases = V2
The distance through which piston moves = d
So the change in volume = V = V2 V1
OR
V = A d
The work done by the system.
W = Force distance
But pressure =
Or
P=
F = PA
Put in equation 1
W = P.A d
Here
W = pressure (length width height)
Pressure change of volume
So
W = P V
It is called pressure work volume.
By substituting the value of work. The first law of thermodynamic may be written as:
E = q w
E = q - PV
Q = E + PV
The absorption or evolution of heat during chemical reaction may take place in two ways.
1: Process at constant volume (Isochoric process).
2: Process at constant pressure (Isoboric process).

ISOCHORIC PROCESS:
61
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

A process in which volume remains constant is called Isochoric process.


Let qv be the amount of heat absorbed at constant volume.
According to first law of thermodynamic.
Q = E + PV
But volume is constant.
v1 = v2 = v
So
qv = E + PV
qv = E2 E1 + P(V V )
qv = E + P (O)
qv = E
As constant volume just internal energy of the system will be change when heat supplied by
the system.

ISOBORIC PROCESS:
A process in which pressure will remain constant is called Isoboric process.
Let qp is the amount of heat energy provided to system at constant pressure.
Due to this addition of heat the internal energy of the gas is increase from E 1 to E2 and
volume is changed from V1 to V2.
So,
According to first law of thermodynamic.
qp = E + PV
But pressure is constant
P=P
So
qp = E2 E1 + P (V2 V1)
qp = E2 E1 + PV2 PV1
qp = E2 _ PV2 E1 PV1
qp =( E2 + PV2) (E1 + PV1) --------- (2)
Here
H = E + PV
The sum of the product of PV and energy is called Enthalpy and it is denoted by H.
So
H1 = E1 + PV
H2 = E2 + PV2
Put it in equation 2
qp = H2 H1
qp = H
The heat at constant pressure is called Enthalpy.

SIGN OF H:

Chemistry XI

All represent the change of enthalpy. It is a characteristic property of a system which depends
upon the initial and final state of the system.
For all exothermic process H is negative and for all endothermic reactions. All is positive.

THERMOCHEMISTRY:
It is a branch of chemistry which deals with the measurement of heat evolved or absorbed
during a chemical reaction.
The unit of heat energy which are generally used are Calorie and Kilo Calorie or Joules and
Kilo Joules.
1Cal = 4.184J OR 1Joule = 0.239 Cal

HESSS LAW OF CONSTANT HEAT SUMMATION:


STATEMENT:
If a chemical reaction is completed in a single step or in several steps the total enthalpy
change for the reaction is always constant.
OR
The amount of heat absorbed or evolved during a chemical reaction must be independent of
the particular manner in which the reaction takes place.
EXPLANATION:
Suppose in a chemical reactant A changes to the product D in a single step with enthalpy
change H.
This reaction may proceed through different intermediate stages i.e. A first changes to B with
enthalpy change H1 then B changes to C with enthalpy change H 2 and finally C changes to
D with enthalpy changes H3.
According to Hesss law:
H = H1 + H2 + H3

VERIFICATION OF HESSS LAW:


When CO2 reactants with excess of NaOH sodium carbonate is formed with the enthalpy
change of 90KJ/mole. This reaction may take place in two step via Sodium bicarbonate as
shown in figure.
In the first step for the formation of NaHCO3 the enthalpy change is -49KJ/mole and in the
second step the enthalpy change is =41KJ/mole.
CO2 + 2NaOH

Na2CO3 + NaOH

H = -49KJ/mole

Chemistry XI

NaHCo3 + NaOH Na2Co3


H = -41KJ/mole
According to Hesss law:
H = H1 + H2
H = -41 49 = -90KJ/mole
The total energy change when the reaction is completed in a single step is -90KJ/mole which
is equal to the enthalpy change when the reaction is completed into two steps. Thus the
Hesss law is verified from this example.

CHAPTER # 6
CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM
REVERSIBLE REACTIONS:
Those chemical reactions which take place in both the directions and never proceed to
completion are called Reversible reactions.
For these types of reaction both the forward and reverse reaction occurs at the same time so
these reaction are generally represented as:
Reactant Product
The double arrow indicates that the reaction is reversible and that both the forward and
reverse reaction can occur simultaneously.
Some examples of reversible reactions are given below.
1: 2HI H2 + I2
2: N2 + 3H2 2NH3

IRREVERSIBLE REACTIONS:
Those reactions in which reactants are completely converted into product are called
Irreversible reaction.
These reactions proceed only in one direction. Examples of such type of reaction are given
below.
1: NaCl + AgNO3 AgCl + NaNO3
2: Cu + H2SO4 CuSo4 + H2

EQUILIBRIUM STATE:
The state which the rate of forward reaction becomes equal to the rate of reverse reaction is
called Equilibrium State.
EXPLANATION:
Consider the following reaction.
64
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

A+BC+D
It is a reversible reaction. In this reaction both the changes (i.e. forward and backward) occur
simultaneously. At initial stage reactant A and B are separated from each other therefore the
concentration of C and D is zero.
When the reaction is started and the molecules of A and B react with each other. The
concentration of reactant is decreased while the concentration of product is increased with the
formation of product, the reverse process of the reaction starts. Due to the decrease of the
concentration of reactant, the rate of forward reaction decreases with time but the rate of
reverse reaction is increased with the formation of product C and D.
Ultimately a stage reaches when the number of reacting molecules in the forward reaction
equalizes the number of reacting molecules in the reverse direction. So this state at which the
rate of forward reaction becomes equal to the rate of reverse reaction is called Equilibrium
State.

LAW OF MASS ACTION:


STATEMENT:
The rate of which a substance reacts is proportional to its active mass and the rate of a
chemical reaction is proportional to the product of the active masses of the reactant.
The term active mass means the concentration in terms of mole/dm3.

DERIVATION OF EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT EXPRESSION:


Consider in a reversible reaction m mole of A and n mole of B reacts to give x mole of
C and y mole of D as shown in equation.
mA + nB xC +yD
In this process:
The rate of forward reaction = [A]m [B]n
Or The rate of forward reaction = Kf [A]m [B]n
And The rate of reverse reaction = [C]x [D]y
Or The rate of reverse reaction = Kf [C]x [D]y
But at equilibrium state:
Rate of forward reaction = Rate of reverse reaction
Therefore:
Kf [A]m [B]n = Kf [C]x [D]y
Or
=

Chemistry XI

Kc =
This is the expression for equilibrium constant which is denoted by Kc and defined as:
The ratio of multiplication of active masses of the products to the product of active masses of
reactant is called Equilibrium Constant.

EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT FOR A GASEOUS SYSTEM:


Consider in a reversible process. The reactants and products are gases as shown:
A(g) + B(g) C(g) + D(g)
When the reactants and products are in gaseous state, their partial pressures are used instead
of their concentration, so according to law of mass action.
Kp =
Where PA, PB, Pc, PD are the partial pressures of reactant and product.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN Kc AND Kp:


There are three possibilities in the relationship between Kc and Kp which are as follows:
1: Kc = Kp
In a chemical reaction if there is no change in number of moles before and after the reaction
then Kc = Kp.
e.g. H2 + I2 2HI
2: When reaction occur with increase in volume such as:
2NH3 N2 + 3H2
For such reaction Kp > Kc
3: When there is decrease in volume on the product side e.g.
O2 + 2So2 2So3
In this case Kp , Kc.

DETERMINATION OF EQUILIBRIUM CONSTANT:


The value of equilibrium constant Kc does not depend upon the initial concentration of
reactants. In order to find out the value of Kc, we have to find out the equilibrium
concentration of reactant and product.

1: ETHYL ACETATE EQUILIBRIUM:

Suppose a moles of acetic acid and b moles of alcohol are mixed in this reaction. After
some time when the state of equilibrium is established. Suppose x moles of H 2O and x
moles of ethyl acetate are formed while the number of moles of acetic acid and alcohol are a

At equilibrium:
According to law of mass action:
Kc = [CH3COOC2H5] [H2O] / [CH3COOH] [C2H5OH]
Kc = [x/v] [x/v] / [a x/v] [b x/v]
Kc = (x) (x) / (a x) (b x)

2: HYDROGEN IODIDE EQUILIBRIUM:


For the reaction between hydrogen and iodine suppose a mole of hydrogen and b mole of
iodine are mixed in a sealed bulb at 444C in the boiling sulphur for some time. The
equilibrium mixture is then cooled and the bulbs are opened in the solution of NaOH. Let the
amount of hydrogen consumed at equilibrium be x moles which means that the amount of
hydrogen left at equilibrium is a x moles. Since 1 mole of hydrogen reacts with 1 mole of
iodine to form two moles of hydrogen iodide hence the amount of iodine used is also x moles
so its moles at equilibrium are b x and the moles of hydrogen iodide at equilibrium are 2x
so we can write as:
H2 + I2 2HI
Initial moles
a b
zero
Moles at equilibrium
a x b x 2x
Concentration equilibrium
A x/v b x/v 2x/v
According to law of mass action:
Kc = [III]2 / [H2] [I2]
Kc = [2x/v]2 / [a x/v] [b x/v]

APPLICATIONS OF LAW OF MASS ACTION:


There are two important applications of equilibrium constant.
1: It is used to predict the direction of reaction.
2: Kc is also used to predict the extent of reaction.

67
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

TO PREDICT THE DIRECTION OF REACTION:


The value of equilibrium constant Kc is used to predict the direction of reaction for a
reversible process.
Reactant Product
With respect to the ratio of initial concentration of the reagent.
[Product]initial / [Reactant]initial
There are three possibilities for the value of K.
1: It is greater than Kc.
2: It is less than Kc.
3: It is equal to Kc.

CASE 1:
If [Reactant]initial [Product]initial > Kc the reaction will shift towards the reverse direction.

CASE 2:
If [Reactant]initial [Product]initial < Kc the reaction will shift towards the forward direction.

CASE 3:
If [Reactant]initial [Product]initial = Kc this is equilibrium state for the reaction.

TO PREDICT THE EXTENT OF REACTION:


From the value of Kc we can predict the extent of the reaction.
If the value of Kc is very large e.g.
For 203 302 Kc = 1055
From this large value of Kc it is predicted that the forward reaction is almost complete.
When the value of Kc very low e.g.
2HF H2 + F2 Kc = 10-13
From this value it is predicted that the forward reaction proceeds with negligible speed.
But if the value of Kc is moderate, the reaction occurs in both direction and equilibrium will
be attained after certain period of time e.g. Kc for
N2 + 3H2 2NH3 is 10
So the reaction occurs in both the direction.

LE CHATELIERS PRINCIPLE:
STATEMENT:
68
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

When a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the equilibrium position changes so as to


minimize the effect of applied stress
The equilibrium state of a chemical reaction is altered by changing concentration pressure or
temperature. The effect of these changes is explained by Le Chatelier.

EFFECT OF CONCENTRATION:
By changing the concentration of any substance present in the equilibrium mixture. The
balance of chemical equilibrium is distributed. For the reaction,
A+BC+D
Kc =
If the concentration of a reactant A or B is increased the equilibrium state shifts to right and
yield of products increases.
But if the concentration of C or D is increased then the reactions proceed in the backward
direction with a greater rate or more A and B are formed.

EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE:
The effect of temperature is different for different type of reaction.
For an endothermic reaction heat is absorbed for the conversion of reactant into product so if
temperature during the reaction is increased then the reaction will proceed with a greater rate
in forward reaction.
Temperature increase More products are formed
ENDOTHERMIC REACTION
Temperature decrease More reactants are formed
Temperature increase More reactants are formed
EXOTHERMIC REACTION
Temperature decrease More products are formed

EFFECT OF PRESSURE:
The state of equilibrium of gaseous reaction is disturbed by the change of pressure. There are
three types of reactions which show the effect of pressure change.

1: When the number of moles of product are greater:


69

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

In a reaction such as:


PCl5 PCl3 + Cl2
The increase of pressure shifts the equilibrium towards reactant side.

1: When the number of moles of reactant are greater:


In a reaction such as:
N2 + 3H2 2NH3
The increase of pressure shifts the equilibrium towards product side because the number of
moles of product are less than the number of moles of reactant.

1: When the number of moles of reactants and products are equal:


In these reactions where the numbers of moles of reactant are equal to the number of moles of
product the change of pressure does not change the equilibrium state.
e.g. H2 + I2 2HI
Since the number of moles of reactants and products are equal in this reaction so the increase
of pressure does not affect the yield of HI.

IMPORTANT INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION OF LE CHATELIERS


PRINCIPLE:
HABERS PROCESS:
This process is used for the production of NH3 by the reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen. In
this process 1 volume of hydrogen at 500C and 200 to 1000 atm pressure in presence of a
catalyst.
N2 + 3H2 2NH3
H = -4.62KJ/mole

1: EFFECT OF CONCENTRATION:
The value of Kc for this reaction is:
Kc = [NH3]2 / [N2] [H2]3
Increase in concentration of reactants which are nitrogen and hydrogen, the equilibrium of the
process shifts towards the right so as to keep the value of K c= constant. Hence the formation
of NH3 increases with the increase of the concentration of N2 or hydrogen.

2: EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE:
70
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

It is an exothermic process, so heat is liberated with the formation of product. Therefore,


according to Le Chateliers Principle at low temperature the equilibrium shifts towards right
to balance the equilibrium state so low temperature favour the formation of NH3.

3: EFFECT OF PRESSURE:
The formation of NH3 proceeds with the decrease in volume. Therefore, the reaction is
carried out under high pressure or in other words high pressure is favourable for the
production of NH3.

CONTACT PROCESS:
The process is used to manufacture H2SO4 on large scale. In this process the most important
step is the oxidation of SO2 to SO3 in presence of a catalyst Vanadium pentoxide.
2So2 + O2 2SO3
H = -395KJ/mole

1: EFFECT OF CONCENTRATION:
The value of Kc for this reaction is:
Kc = [SO3]2 / [SO2]2 [O2]
Increase in concentration of SO2 or O2 shifts the equilibrium towards the right and more SO 3
is formed.

2: EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE:
Since the process is exothermic, so low temperature will favour the formation SO 3. The
optimum temperature for this reaction is 400 to 450C.

3: EFFECT OF PRESSURE:
In this reaction decrease in volume takes place so high pressure is favourable for the
formation of SO3.

COMMON ION EFFECT:


STATEMENT:

71
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

The process in which precipitation of an electrolyte is caused by lowering the degree of


ionization of a weak electrolyte when a common ion is added is known as Common ion
effect.
EXPLANATION:
In the solution of an electrolyte in water, there exist equilibrium between the ions and the
undissociated molecules to which the law of mass action can be applied.
Considering the dissociation of an electrolyte AB we have:
AB A+ + BAnd
[A+] [B-] / [AB] = K (dissociation constant)
If now another electrolyte yielding A+ or B+ ions be added to the above solution, it will result
in the increase of concentration of the ions A+ or B- and in order that K may remain the same,
the concentration AB must evidently increase. In other words The degree of dissociation of
an electrolyte containing a common ion. This phenomenon is known as Common ion effect.

APPLICATION OF COMMON ION EFFECT IN SALT ANALYSIS:


An electrolyte is precipitated from its solution only when the concentration of its ions exceed
from the solubility product. The precipitates are obtained when the concentration of any one
ion is increased. Thus by adding the common ion, the solubility product can be exceeded.
In this solution Cu(OH)2 is a weak base while H2SO4 is a strong acid so the PH of the solution
is changed towards acidic medium.
When Na2CO3 is dissolved in water, it reacts with water such as:
Na2Co3 + 2H2O 2NaOH + H2Co3
In this solution H2Co3 which is weak acid and NaOH which is a strong base are formed. Due
to presence of strong base the medium is changed towards basic nature.

SOLUBILITY PRODUCT:
When a slightly soluble ionic solid such as silver chloride is dissolved in water. It
decomposition into its ions.
AgCL Ag+ + ClThese Ag+ and Cl- ions from solid phase pass into solution till the solution becomes saturated.
Now there exists an equilibrium between the ions present in the saturated solution and the
ions present in the solid phase, thus:
AgCL Ag+ + ClUndissolved
dissolved
Applying the law of mass action:
Kc = [Ag+] [Cl-] / K

Or Kc K = [Ag+] [Cl-]
Or Ks.p = [Ag+] [Cl-]
Where Ks.p is known as solubility product and defined as:
The product of the concentration of ions in the saturated solution of a sparingly soluble salt
is called Solubility product.
The value of solubility product is constant for a given temperature.

CALCULATION OF SOLUBILITY PRODUCT FROM SOLUBILITY:


The mass of a soluble present in a saturated solution with a fixed volume of solvent is called
Solubility, which is generally represented in the unit of gm/dm 3 with the help of solubility we
can calculate the solubility product of a substance e.g. the solubility of Mg(OH) 2 at 25C is
0.00764gm/dm3. To calculate the Ks.p of Mg(OH)2. First of all we will calculate the
concentration of Mg(OH)2 present in the solution.
Mass of Mg(OH)2 = 0.00764gm/dm3
Mass of Mg(OH)2 = 0.00764/58 mole/dm3
= 1.31 10-4 mole/dm3
The ionization of Mg(OH)2 in the solution is as follows:
Mg(OH)2 Mg+2 + 2OHAnd the solubility product for Mg(OH)2 solution one mole of MG++ ions are present while
two moles of OH- ions are present, therefore in 1.31 10-4 mole/dm3 solution of Mg(OH)2.
The concentration of Mg+ is 1.31 10-4 mole/dm3 while the concentration of OH- is 2.62
10-8 mole/dm3. By substituting these value.
Ks.p = [Mg+2] [OH-]2
= [1.31 10-4] [2.62 10-4]2
= 9.0 10-12mole3/dm9
So in this way the solubility product of a substance may be calculated with the help of
solubility.

CALCULATION OF SOLUBILITY FROM SOLUBILITY PRODUCT:


If we know the value of solubility product, we can calculate the solubility of the salt.
For example: The solubility product of PbCrO4 at 25C is 2.8 10-13moles/dm3.

HYDRATION
SOLUTIONS AND ELECTROLYTES
SOLUTION:
A homogeneous mixture or a single phase mixture of two or more substances is
called solution.

SOLUTE:
The component of solution present in smaller amount is called solute.

SOLVENT:
The component of solution present in larger amount is called solvent

CONCENTRATION OF SOLUTION:
The amount (No. of Moles, No. of Atoms or No. of Molecules) of a solute
present in a given amount of solvent or solution is called concentration of
solution.

MOLAR CONCENTRATION (MORALITY):


Definition:

The number of moles of solute present per dm3 of solution is called molar
concentration or morality of the solution.
The morality is denoted by M and is calculated as:

EXAMPLE:
When 1 mole of HCl (i.e. 36.5 gm HCl) is present in 1 dm 3 solution the morality of solution
is 1M similarly if 0.5 moles of HCl (i.e. 18.25 gm HCl) is present in 1 dm 3 of solution the
morality of solution is 0.5 M

MOLAL CONCENTRATION (MOLALITY):


Definition:
The number of moles of solute present per 1000 gm (or 1 kg) of solvent is called molality of
the solution.
Molality of solution is denoted by m which is calculated as:
m

No. of moles of solute


mass of solvent in kg

EXAMPLE:
When one mole of glucose (180 gm glucose) is dissolved in 1 kg of H 2O the molality of
solution is 1m similarly if 2 moles of glucose (360 gm glucose) is dissolved in 1 kg H 2O the
solution is said to be 2 molal.

HYDRATION:
Addition of water or association of water molecules with a substance without dissociation is
called Hydration.
Water is a good solvent and its polar nature plays very important part in dissolving
substances. It dissolves ionic compounds readily.
When an ionic compound is dissolved in water, the partial negatively charged oxygen of
water molecule is attracted towards the cation ion similarly the partial positively charged
hydrogen of water molecule is attracted towards the anions so hydrated ions are formed as
shown in figure.
In solution, the number of water molecules which surround the ions is indefinite, but when an
aqueous solution of a salt is evaporated, the salt crystallizes with a definite number of water
molecules which is called as water of Crystallization. E.g. when CuSO 4 recrystallized from
its solution the crystallized salt has the composition CuSo4.5H2O. Similarly when magnesium
chloride is re-crystallized from the solution, it has the composition MgCl 2.6H2O. This
composition indicates that each magnesium ion in the crystal is surrounded by size water
molecules. This type of salts is called hydrated salts.

It is observed experimentally that the oxygen atom of water molecule is attached with the
cation of salt through co-ordinate covalent bond so it is more better to write the molecular
formulas of the hydrated salts as given below.
[Cu(H2O)5]SO4 [Mg(H2O)6]Cl2
It is also observed that these compound exist with a definite geometrical structure e.g. the
structure of [Mg(H2O6)Cl2 is octahedral and [Cu(H2O)4]+2 is a square planar as shown.

HYDROLYSIS:
DEFINITION:

Due to hydrolysis new compounds are formed.


H O bond of H2O is broken.
It is a chemical change.
Solution becomes either acidic or basic.

EXAMPLES:
1- When NH4Cl is added in water it forms a strong acid and a weak base. So the
resultant solution becomes acidic.
NH4Cl + H OH NH4OH + HCl
2- When Na2CO3 id dissolved in water it forms a strong base and a weak acid so the
solution has higher conc. of OH- and the pH becomes basic.

THEORY OF IONIZATION:
INTRODUCTION:
This theory was put forward by a Swedish chemist Arrbenius in 1887. It accounts for
electrical conductivity of electrolyte solution and it also describes the effect of ionization on
colligative properties of a substance.

POSTULATES OF THEORY:
1: ELECTROLYTES:
Electrolytes are substances that contain charged particles called ions except H +, all positive
ions are derived from metals and negative ions are derived from non-metals.

2: DISSOCIATION OF ELECTROLYTES:
Particles of electrolytes (acid, base, salt) dissociate into opposite charged ions on dissolution
in water.
e.g.
H2SO4 2H+ + SO4-HCl H+ + ClNaOH Na+ + OH-

3: EQUILIBRIUM
MOLECULE:

BETWEEN

IONIZED

AND

UNIONIZED

The ionization is a reversible process. Ions recombine to form unionized molecules. So the
solution contains ions of electrolyte together with unionized molecules.
H2SO4 2H+ + SO4--

DEGREE OF IONIZATION:
The external of dissociation of an electrolyte is called degree of ionization or dissociation.
Greater the dissociation, greater will be conduction of electricity through solution.

i: NATURE OF ELECTROLYTE:
Strong electrolytes (HCl, NaCl) ionize almost completely, whereas weak electrolytes
(CH3COOh, NH4OH) ionize partially.

ii: DEGREE OF DILUTION:


Ionization increases with increase in dilution.

iii: TEMPERATURE:
Ionization increases with increase in dilution.

5: NUMBER OF IONS AND SEED OF IONS:


Greater the number of ion and greater the speed of ions, more will be the electrical
conductance.

6: EFFECT OF IONIZATION OF COLIGATIVE PROPERTIES:


Ionization is responsible for deviation in some colligative properties such as:
a) Elecvation of boiling point
b) Depression of freezing point
c) Osmotic process
d) Lowering of vapor pressure
For example:
1 mole of NaCl produce q mole of Na+ and 1 mole of Cl-. So the number of ions are twice the
number of NaCl. Hence atomic pressure must also increase.
This is valid when there is no interionic attraction and no hydration.

DRAW BACKS:
This theory cannot explain.
i)
Conductance of electrolytes in fused state.
ii)
Why conductance of strong electrolytes does not increase with dilution.

CONSTRUCTION OF S.H.E:
A hydrogen electrode consists of a platinum plate immersed in 1 molar solution of H+. A
current pure H2 is passed continuously through the solution under 1 atm. The platinum
absorbs the gas on its surface and this hydrogen coated platinum acts as the hydrogen

ELECTRO-CHEMICAL SERIES: (E.C.S)


The list of elements or ions arranged in the decreasing order of their standard reduction
potential values is called as Electro Chemical Series.

SOME USEFUL FACTS ABOUT (E.C.S):


1. Metals placed in the series above hydrogen act as anode and they are oxidized.
2. Metals placed in the series below hydrogen act as cathode and they are reduced.
3. If the sign of electrode potential is positive then the reaction is spontaneous and the
electrode act the anode.
4. If the sign of electrode potential is negative then the reaction is non-spontaneous and
the electrode act as cathode.

OXIDATION NUMBER:
The formal charge (i.e. not real) on the atom in the compound or ion under consideration is
known as Oxidation number or state.

OXIDATION:
Oxidation is a chemical change in which electrons are lost by an atom or group of atoms.
EXAMPLE:
Fe Fe2+ + 2eIn this reaction neutral iron atom has lost 2 electrons and has changed to ferrous ion so it is
oxidation.
OR
Oxidation is a process in which oxidation number if an element is increased.
EXAMPLE:
C + O2 C+4O2(-2)
Is an oxidation of carbon, since its oxidation number increases from zero to +4.

2. Redox indicator
3. Precipitation indicator

MATHEMATICAL REPRESENTATION:

pH = log
pH = -log [H+]
EXPLANATION:
Pure water ionizes very slightly and is therefore a weak electrolyte.
H2O H+ + OH
Thus equilibrium expression on the above reaction is given by:
Kc =
Kc [H2O] = [H+] [OH-]
Kc [H2O] = Kw
Where Kw is called the ionic product of water which is equal to 1.0 10-14 moles/dm3.
Thus
[H+] [OH-] = 1.0 10-14
[H+] = 10-7
[OH-] = 10-7
pH = - log [H+]
pH = - log 10-7
pH = 7 log 10
pH = 7(1)
pH = 7
pH = 7 for neutral solution

METHODS OF DETERMINATION OF PH OF A SOLUTION:


Ph of a solution can be measured by two methods.
1: BY USING UNIVERSAL INDICATOR:
By mixing together various indicators, a universal indicator has been obtained. This indicator
indicates different colors of solution at different acidities. Universal indicator colors related to
pH value are as follows:
RED
0

pH of a solution is determined by adding a few drops of universal indicator solution. The pH


can be obtained by comparing the color of solution from the color of the universal indicator
as given above.

2: BY USING pH METER:
A pH meter has a glass electrode which when dipped into solution, will give direct reading of
the pH value on the meter.

pOH:
Logarithm of the reciprocal of hydroxyl [OH-] ion concentration is called pOH.
OR
Negative logarithm of hydroxyl ion concentration is called pOH.

MATHEMATICAL REPRESENTATION:

pOH = log
pOH = - log [OH-]

BUFFER SOLUTION:
A solution in which tends to resist change in pH is called a Buffer Solution.

PRINCIPLE OF PREPRATION OF BUFFER SOLUTION:


Buffer solutions of specified pH values are prepared easily by half neutralizing solution of a
weak acid with a strong base or a weak base with a strong acid.
1: PREPARATION OF BUFFER SOLUTION OF pH LESS THAN 7:
Such solutions can be prepared by mixing weak acids and their salts with strong bases.

EXAMPLES OF BUFFER ACTION:


A solution of NH4OH and Nh4Cl.

APPLICATION OF BUFFER:
The use of buffer is an important part of many industrial processes. Examples are
electroplating and the manufacture of leather, photographic materials & dyes.
The biological research culture media are generally buffered to maintain a constant
pH is required for the growth of the bacteria being studied.
Buffers are used extensively in analytical chemistry and are used to calibrate pH.
Human blood is buffered to pH of 7.4 by means of bicarbonates, phosphates and
complex protein systems.

BUFFER ACTION:
The property of a solution due to which it tends to maintain its pH when an acid or an alkali
is added to it is called buffer action.

BUFFER CAPACITY:
The capacity of a solution to maintain definite pH is called buffer capacity.

CHAPTER # 8
CHEMICAL KINETICS
INTRODUCTION:
The branch of physical chemistry which deals with the speed or rate at which a reaction
occurs is called chemical kinetics.
The study of chemical kinetics therefore includes the rate of a chemical reaction and also the
rate of a chemical reaction and also the factors which influence its rate.

SLOW AND FAST REACTION:


Those reactions for which short time is required to convert a reactant into product are called
fast reaction but if more time is required for the formation of a product them the reactions are
called slow reaction usually ionic reactions which involve oppositely charged ions in aqueous
medium are very fast for example reaction between aqueous solution of NaCl and AgNo 3
gives white precipitates of AgCl instantaneously
AgNo3 + NaCl AgCl + NaNo3
Such reactions are very fast these are completed in fractions of seconds but those reactions
which involve covalent take place very slowly for example conversion of So2 into So3
2So2 + O2 2So3
It is a slow reaction and required more time for the formation of a product

RATE OR VELOCITY OF A REACTION:


DEFINITION:
It is the change in concentration of a reactant or product per unit time
Mathematically it is represented as
Rate of reaction

change in concentration of reactant/product


Time taken for the change

The determination of the rate of a reaction is not so simple because the rate of a given
reaction is never uniform it falls of gradually with time as the reactants are used up hence we
cannot get the velocity or rate of reaction simply by dividing the amount of substance

transformed by the time taken for such transformation for this reason we take a very small
interval of time dt during which it is assumed that velocity of reaction remains constant if
dx is the amount of substance transformed that small interval of time dt then the velocity
of reaction is expressed as.
Velocity of a reaction

dx / dt

Thus with the velocity of a chemical reaction use mean the velocity at the given moment or
given instant.

THE RATE CONSTANT:


DEFINITION:
The proportionality constant present in the rate equation is called rate constant according to
law of mass action we know that the rate of chemical reaction is directly proportional to the
molar concentration of the reactions for example
R
(Reactant)

The rate of reaction


Or dx/dt

P
(Product)
[R]
=K [R]

Where K is known as rate constant

SPECIFIC RATE CONSTANT:


When the concentration and temperature both are specified the rate constant is known as
specific rate constant. When the concentration of each reactant is mode per dm 3 at given
temperature the specific rate constant numerically equals to the velocity of the reaction
dx/dt = V = K [R]
or K
V/[R]
when R = 1 mole/dm3
K=V
But when different reactant are reacting with different number of moles then the value of K
may be calculated as
2So2 + O2 2So3
V = dx/dt = K [So2]2 [O2]
91
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

K = V/[So3]2 [O2]

DETERMINATION OF RATE OF REACTION:


There are two methods for the determination of rate of chemical reaction

(1) PHYSICAL METHOD:


When the rate of a chemical reaction is determined by using properties such as colour change
state change the method known as physical method

(2) CHEMICAL METHOD:


In the method the change in concentration of reactant or product is noted and with the help of
this change rate of reaction is determined e.g.
For the reaction R P
Velocity of reaction = -d [R]/dt = +d [P]/dt
The negative sign indicates decrease in concentration of the reactant while positive sign
indicates an increase in the concentration of product

ENERGY OF ACTIVATION:
DEFINITION:
The minimum energy required for a reactant to reach to an excited state or activated state is
called energy of activation
OR
The minimum energy required for a collusion to be effective is known as energy of activation
For a chemical reaction the reacting molecules are collided with each other and after
collusion if their energy is increased such that they can reach to the activated state then they
are able to from product every reaction has its own energy of activation energy takes place at
low temperature and a reaction with higher energy of activation will take place at high
temperature similarly those reactions which are required low energy of activation are
proceeded with a greater rate but those reaction in which high energy of activation is required
are generally slow.

92
Composed by: TDS

Prrofessor Jee Collegiate

Chemistry XI

The rate of a chemical reaction is usually increased by adding a catalyst which is actually
decreased the energy at activation due to which rate of reaction is increased

FACTORS AFFECTING RATE OF REACTION:


The factors which influence the rate of a chemical reaction are as follows

SURFACE AREA OF REACTANTS:


The surface area of a reactant influence the rate of chemical reaction e.g. powdered zinc
reacts more rapidly with water than the piece of zinc because powdered zinc is provided more
surface area for the reaction hence we can say that if the surface area of the reactant is greater
then the rate of reaction is also greater.

AFFECT OF CONCENTRATION:
As we know that the rate of chemical reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of
the reactants are evil able for the reaction the rate of reaction will be greater by increasing the
concentration of reactants the collusion frequency increases so the number of effective
collusion increases so more product is formed.

TEMPERATURE:
With the increase of temperature the average kinetic energy of the molecules is increased
therefore the chance of effective collusion is greater at high temperature so with the increase
of temperature the rate of a chemical reaction is generally increased. It is observed that a rise
of 10oC in temperature approximately doubles the rate of reaction.

CATALYST:
DEFINITION:
A substance which alters the rate of a chemical reaction its self remaining chemically
unchanged at the end of the reaction is called Catalyst.
A catalyst which increases the rate of a chemical reaction by lowering energy of activation is
called positive catalyst where as a catalyst which decreases the rate of a chemical reaction by
increasing energy of activation is called negative catalyst or inhibitor the effect of a positive
catalyst is shown in the figure.
