he volatile metal is :
-
Solution
Zn is volatile meta
Copper and con. H2SO4 react to produce
-
Solution
Copper reacts with H2SO4 to produce SO2
Cu + 2H2SO4 → CuSO4 + SO2 + 2H2O
But Cu does not displace H2 from dilute H2SO4 as it is less reactive than H2(comes below H2 in electrochemical series)
For the ions Zn2+, Ni2+ and Cr3+ which among the following statements is correct?(atomic number of Zn = 30, Ni = 28 and Cr = 24)
-
Solution
The ions with unpaired electrons are colourled and those with paired electrons are colourless.
\(\underset{No.\, of\, e^{-}s=28}{Zn^{2+}}=1s^{2},2s^{2}p^{6}d^{10}\)
\(\underset{No.\, of\, e^{-}s=21}{Cr^{3+}}=1s^{2},2s^{2}p^{6}d^{3}\)
\(\underset{No.\, of\, e^{-}s=26}{Cr^{2+}}=1s^{2},2s^{2}p^{6}d^{8}\)
Thus Zn2+,Cr3+ and Ni2+ have zero, 3 and 2 unpaired electrons respectively.
Which of the following ions has the maximum magnetic moment?
-
Solution
Mn++ –5 unpaired electrons
Fe++ – 4 unpaired electrons
Ti++ – 2 unpaired electrons
Cr++ – 4 unpaired electrons Hence maximum no. of unpaired electron is present in Mn++.
Magnetic moment α number of unpaired electrons
In which of the following pairs both the ions are coloured in aqueous solutions ?
(At.no. : Sc = 21,Ti= 22, Ni = 28, Cu = 29, Co = 27)
-
Solution
Sc3+ : 1s2, 2s2p6, 3s2p6d0, 4s0; no unpaired electron.
Cu+: 1s2, 2s2p6, 3s10p6d6, 4s0; no unpaired electron.
Ni2+: 1s2, 2s2p6, 3s2p6d8, 4s0;unpaired electrons are present.
Ti3+ : 1s2, 2s2p6, 3s2p6d1, 4s0;unpaired electron is present
Co2+ : 1s2, 2s2p6, 3s2p6d7, 4s0;unpaired electrons are present So from the given options the only correct combination is Ni2+ and Ti3+
When tin is treated with concentrated nitric acid:
-
Solution
Tin on reaction with conc. HNO3 to form meta stannic acid and nitrogen dioxide.
\(\underset{tin}{Sn}+\underset{nitric\, acid\, (conc.)}{4HNO_{3}}\rightarrow \underset{Meta\, stannic\, acid}{H_{2}SnO_{3}}+\underset{nitrogen\, dioxide}{4NO_{2}}+H_{2}O\)
The aqueous solution containing which one of the following ions will be colourless? (Atomic number:Sc = 21, Fe = 26, Ti = 22, Mn = 25)
-
Solution
In Sc3+ there is/are no unpaired electrons. So the aqueous solution of Sc3+ will be colourless.
Which one of the following ionic species will impart colour to an aqueous solution?
-
Solution
Potassium dichromate dissociates with evolution of O2 on heating.
4 K2Cr2O7 → 4 K2CrO4 + 2Cr2O3 + 3O2
So, X is Cr2O3
The oxides, CrO3, MoO3, and WO3 are strongly
-
Solution
The transition metal oxides in which metal is in lower oxidation states are basic and in which metal is in higher oxidation states are acidic while with intermediate oxidation states are amphoteric.
\(\overset{+6}{CrO_{3}}\: \overset{+6}{MoO_{3}}\: \overset{+6}{WO_{3}}\)
So, the given transition metal oxides are acidic in nature.
