Which of the following statements about polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs) is/are false?

  1. Type I clouds are formed at about -77˚C and contain solid HNO3.3H2O.

  2. PSCs do not react with chlorine nitrate and HCl.

  3. A tight whirlpool of wind called polar vortex is formed which surrounds Antarctica.

  4. Type II clouds are formed at about -85˚C and contain some ice.

  5. None of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

This statement is correct because type I clouds are those which are formed at about -77˚C and contain solid HNO3.3H2O. Thus this option is wrong.

Which of the following statements is/are not true?

  1. CrO4-- and MnO4-- have tetrahedral structure.

  2. FeSO4 gives sulphur dioxide on heating.

  3. Transition metals show catalytic properties and form interstitial compounds with noble gases.

  4. Silver is a better conductor of electricity than copper.

  5. Ni+2 compounds are thermodynamically more stable than Pt+2.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

This option is correct because transition metals show catalytic properties and form interstitial compounds with p-block elements like boron, carbon, nitrogen, etc.

Which of the following statements is/are true about the reaction of p-methoxybenzaldehyde and formaldehyde in basic medium. A. Formic acid is formed when formaldehyde is oxidised. B. p-methoxybenzaldehyde is reduced to p-methoxybenzyl alcohol. C. Formaldehyde is reduced while p-methoxybenzaldehyde is oxidised.

  1. Only A

  2. Only B

  3. Only C

  4. Only A and B

  5. Only A and C


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

This option is correct because out of HCHO and p-methoxybenzaldehyde HCHO is better reducing agent. As a result formaldehyde is oxidised to formic acid while p-methoxybenzaldehyde is reduced to p-methoxybenzyl alcohol.

Match the column - I (Pollutant) with column - II (Source)

 
Column - I
Column - II
i. Mineral Acids a. Chemical fertiliser
ii. Polyphosphate b. Domestic sewage
iii. Sediments c. Abandoned coal mines
iv. Microorganism d. Erosion of soil by strip mining
v. Plant nutrients e. Detergents
  1. i - e, ii - b, iii - c, iv - d, v - a

  2. i - a, ii - c, iii - d, iv - b, v - e

  3. i - d, ii - e, iii - c, iv - b, v - a

  4. i - c, ii - e, iii - d, iv - a, v - b

  5. i - c, ii - e, iii - d, iv - b, v - a


Correct Option: E
Explanation:

This option is correct because abandoned coal mines produce mineral acid, detergents are the source of polyphosphate, erosion of soil by strip mining give sediments, domestic sewage is the source of microorganisms and chemical fertilisers are the source of plant nutrients.

Which of the following sets is not of paramagnetic metal ions?

  1. Cr+2, Ti+3 and V+3

  2. Cu+2, Sc+3 and V+2

  3. Sc+3, Ti+4 and Zn+2

  4. Fe+2, Fe+3 and Co+2

  5. Ti+4, Ni+2 and Zn+2


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

This option is correct because in this option, all metal ions are diamagnetic in nature due to absence of unpaired electrons.

Which of the following sets has tetrahedral shape molecular ions?

  1. C2H4, NO3- and CO3-2

  2. CH4, CCl4 and ICl2-

  3. SnCl4, NH4+ and SiBr4

  4. IF4+, SF4 and TeCl4

  5. I3+, I3- and H3O+


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

This option is correct because SnCl4, NH4+ and SiBr4 all have sp3-hybridisation and tetrahedral shape.

Which of the following statements is/are correct?

  1. Each atom in hexagonal close packing has a coordination number 6.

  2. Solids may have tetrahedral or octahedral voids.

  3. The arrangement of atoms in fcc and bcc are the same.

  4. In a body centered cubic, the space occupied by spheres is 68%.

  5. Both 3 and 4.


Correct Option: E
Explanation:

This option is correct because both the statements i.e. there is no difference between fcc and ccp arrangement and in body centered cubic and the space occupied by spheres is 68%, are true statements.

Which one of the following is incorrectly matched?

  1. [Ag(NH3)2]+ and CO2 - Linear

  2. BF3 and CH3+ - Triangular planar

  3. NH3 and PCl3 - Pyramidal

  4. SF4 and CCl4 - Tetrahedral

  5. XeF4 and IF4 - Square planar


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

This option is correct because the geometry of SF4 is see-saw due to the presence of 4 bond pairs and one lone pair of electrons (according to  VSEPR theory, its shape is seesaw), while the geometry of CCl4 is tetrahedral.

Which of the following statements regarding the 1, 3-butadiene is/are false? A. The hybridisation of Carbon atom number 1 and 4 is sp2. B. The single bond between carbon atom number 2 and 3 is of the same length as the C-C bond length in ethane. C. 1, 3-butadiene is a conjugated diene.

  1. Only A

  2. Only B

  3. Only C

  4. Only B and C

  5. None of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Due to resonance C2-C3 bond has some double bond character, and hence its bond length (1.46 Ǻ) is shorter than the C-C bond length in ethane (1.54 Ǻ). Thus this option is correct.

Which of the following statements is/are false about the internal energy?

  1. The absolute value of internal energy can not be determined.

  2. The internal energy of one mole of a substance is same at any temperature or pressure.

  3. The measurement of heat change during a reaction by bomb calorimeter is equal to the internal energy change.

  4. Internal energy is an extensive property.

  5. The internal energy of a system can be changed by heating the system or by doing work on it.


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

This option is correct because the measurement of heat change during a reaction by bomb calorimeter is equal to the internal energy change, and hence this statement incorrect about internal energy.

Which of the following statements is/are true? A. 1-chloro-2, 3-pentadiene has no chiral carbon atoms, yet it is a chiral molecule. B. A newly discovered compound is thought to be chiral but shows no rotation in a specific solvent. C. When a chiral molecule reacts to give a chiral molecule the product is always racemic.

  1. Only A

  2. Only B

  3. Only C

  4. Only A and C

  5. Only B and C


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

This statement is true because the molecule as whole is chiral, since this molecule and its mirror image are non-superimposable.

Which of the following statements is/are not false?

  1. The solubility of α-Amino acid is minimum at isoelectric point.

  2. The blood platelets provides immunity against microorganisms.

  3. The bigger molecules are breaking down in smaller molecules during respiration.
