12. In anhydrous AlCl3, aluminium atom is linked with three chlorine atoms by covalent bond.
However, when aluminium chloride is dissolved in water, It undergoes hydration as
Al2Cl6 + Water  2[Al(H2O)6]3+ + 6Cl– + Energy
Hydration of Al2Cl6 is an exothermic reaction and the released energy is responsible for the removal
of three electrons from Al to form Al3+, Thus AlCl3. 6H2O is ionic in nature. 3

14. (i) Mists : These are particles of spray liquids and condensation of their vapours in air.
Examples : Portions of herbicides and insecticides that are not used up, travel through the air to
form mists. 1
(ii) Smoke : These are small soot particles produced due to combustion of fossil fuels and organic
matter. Examples : Oil, tobacco and carbon smoke are typical examples. 1
(iii) Fumes : These include condensed vapours of metallurgical acid and alkali fumes. 1
15. (a) Let the O.N. of O be x. Since Ca is an alkaline earth metal, therefore, its O.N. is + 2. Thus,
+2 x
Ca O2 + 2 + 2(x) = O or x = –1
Thus,the oxidation number of O in CaO2 = –1. 1
(b) In NaBH4, H is present as hydride ion. Therefore, its O.N. is – 1. Thus,
+1 x –1
Na B H4 1(+ 1) + x + 4(–1) = 0 or x = + 3 1
Thus, the O.N. of B in NaBH4 = + 3
(c) +1 x –2
H2 S2 O7 2(+1) + 2(x) + 7(–2) = 0 or x = 6 1
Thus, the O.N. of S in H2S2O7 = + 6

17. (a) Orbitals which possess equal energies are called degenerate orbitals. For example 2px, 2py and
2pz orbitals which are oriented along X, Y and Z axis are degenerate. Similarly five d-orbitals dxy,
dyz, dzx, dx2–y2 and dz2 are degenerate orbitals. 1

(i) Ionization enthalpies of alkaline earth metals are higher than those of alkali metals. This is
because of smaller size of alkaline earth metal corresponding to alkali metal of the same period.
1
(ii) The oxides of alkali and alkaline earth metal dissolve in water to form their respective hydroxides.
These oxides are strong bases. However, the oxides of alkali metals are more basic than those
of alkaline earth metals. This is because the ionization enthalpy of alkali metals is lower. The
electropositive character of alkali metals is higher than that of corresponding alkaline earth
metal so that M–OH bond in alkali metals can ionize more easily. 1

MOH → M+ + OH–
(iii) Because of small size and high charge, the lattice enthalpies of alkaline earth metals are much
more than those of alkali metals and therefore, the solubility of alkaline earth metal hydroxides
is less than that of alkali metals. 1

Important conditions required for the linear combination of atomic orbitals to form molecular
22.
orbitals are :
(a) The combining atomic orbitals should have comparable energies.
(b) The combining atomic orbitals must have proper orientation e.g., same symmetry, so that they
are able to overlap to a considerable extent. 3
(c) The extent of overlapping should be large. Greater the overlap, greater will be the electron
density between the nuclei.

24. Distillation means the conversion of a liquid into vapours, which on condensation by cooling gives
 Solutions | 5

a pure liquid. This method is used for purification of liquids which boil without dicomposition
and contain non-volatile impurities. This method can also be used for separating liquids having
sufficient differences in their boiling points. 1
Distillation under reduced pressure also involves conversion of a liquid into vapours by heating
followed by condensation of the vapours thus produced by cooling under reduced pressure. In this
method, the pressure acting on the system is not atmospheric pressure but is reduced with the help
of a vacuum pump. This method is used to purify liquids which decompose below their normal
boling points. 2
Steam distillation is similar to distillation under reduced pressure even though there is no reduction
in the total pressure acting on the solution. It is used for the separation and purification of a liquid
which is appreciably volatile when the sum of the vapour pressure of the organic liquid (P1) and
that of water (P2) becomes equal to atmospheric pressure i.e., (P) = P1 + P2 2
OR
The process of displacement of σ-electrons along the saturated carbon chain due to the presence of
a polar covalent bond at one end of the chain is called inductive effect and is denoted as I-effect.
This is a permanent effect and is generally represented by an arrow with is head in the middle of the
covalent bond pointing in the direction of displacement of electron as shown below :
+''' +'' +' + –
C C C C C 3
However, it may be noted that this effect decreases sharply as we move away from the atoms
involved in the initial polar bond and becomes negligible from the fourth atom onwards.
The phenomenon of movement of electrons from one atom to another in a multiple bond at the
demand of attacking reagent is called electromeric effect and is denoted as E-effect.
The electromeric shift of electrons occurs only at the moment of reaction. Like the inductive effect,
the electromeric effect is also classified as :
(a) The given order can be explained on the basis of -I effect
O O O
Cl Cl
Cl C C O H CH C O H Cl CH2 C O H
Cl Cl 1
More is the number of halogen atoms higher is the -I effect and hence is more polar resulting in
higher acidic character.
(b) The give order can be explained by +I effect
O O CH3 O

As the number of alkyl groups increases, the +I effect increases, resulting in decrease in acidic
strength.
25. Standard free energy of formation (Df G°) for the reaction

∴ DU = 0
DH = D(PV)
(ii) For an ideal gas, PV = RT

Gypsum Plaster of Paris
Its chief property due to which it is widely used is that when it is mixed with one-third of its
weight of water it sets with expansion into a hard mass of interlocking crystals of gypsum
within 5-15 minutes. The setting is due to hydration of plaster of paris into gypsum.
OR
(a) B atom in BCl3 has only six electrons in the valence shell and therefore is an electron deficient
molecule. It can readily accept a pair of electrons donated by water and hence undergoes
hydrolysis to form boric acid and HCl. 2
BCl3 + 3H3O → H3BO3 + 3HCl
In contrast, C atom in CCl4 has 8 electrons in its valence shell. It does not have vacant d-orbitals
to extend its octet. Therefore, it is an electron precise molecule and hence neither accepts nor
donates a pair of electrons. Therefore, it does not accept a pair of electrons from H2O molecule
and Hence CCl4 does not undergo hydrolysis in water. 2
(b) Boric acid is not a protic acid because it does not ionize in water to give a proton. But it acts as
a Lewis acid by accepting electrons from hydroxide ion :
H + H
(HO)3B + O (HO)3B– O [B(OH)4]– + H+
H H
Or
B(OH)3(aq) + 2H2O → [B(OH)4]–(aq) + H3O+(aq) 3
–
Thus, boric acid acts as Lewis acid because it reacts with OH (Lewis base) ions rather than
acting as a Bronsted acid.
