Q.4 Which one of the following gases has the lowest value of Henry's law constant? 1 Mark

A)

B)

C)

D)

Explanation:

Henry's law tells about the solubility of the gases in a liquid. The solubility of gases increases with the increase in
pressure. The value of Henry's law constant decreases with the increase in the solubility of gases. In the given gases,
carbon dioxide has maximum solubility, therefore, the value of Henry's law constant for carbon dioxide gas will be
the lowest.

Q.5 Which of the following statements is false? 1 Mark

A) Units of atmospheric pressure and osmotic pressure are the same.

In reverse osmosis, solvent molecules move through a semipermeable membrane from a region of lower
B)
concentration of solute to a region of higher concentration.

C) The value of molal depression constant depends on nature of solvent.

D) Relative lowering of vapour pressure, is a dimensionless quantity.

Explanation:

In osmosis the solvent molecules flow from solvent side to solution side. In reverse osmosis solvent molecules move
through a semipermeable membrane from a region of higher concentration of solute to a region of lower
concentration.

Q.8 Which of the following is not a colligative property? 1 Mark

A) Molarity

B) Vapour pressure lowering

C) Osmotic Pressure

D) Elevation in b.pt.

Explanation:

Colligative property is the property of  the solution which only depends on number of solute particles in the solution and is
changes if molecule dissociate or associate.

But Molarity depends upon moles of a solute which does not change even if molecule dissociate or associate.

Q.9 Which of the following statements is correct, if the intermolecular forces in liquids A, B and C are in the order 1 Mark
?
A) B evaporates more readily than A

B) B evaporates less readily than C

C) A and B evaporate at the same rate

D) A evaporates more readily than C

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces among the liquid molecules decide the volatality of the liquid.

If intermolecular forces are strong, the liquid will be less volatile since more energy is required for escape of liquid molecles in
to vapour phase.

The order of intermolecular forces is 

So liquid A will be more volatile than liquid B and C.

Q.10 The van’t Hoff factor  for a dilute aqueous solution of the strong electrolyte barium hydroxide is 1 Mark
 
A)

B)

C)

D)

Explanation:

Barium hydroxide,  is highly soluble in water and is a strong electrolyte. Unless specified we assume it to
be  dissociated.
For  dissociation solute, van'thof  ffactor,  number of ions produced from one formula unit of the electrolyte

Q.11 Statement - 1: Gases always tend to be less soluble in liquids as the temperature is raised. 1 Mark

Statement - 2: Vapour pressure of liquids increase with increase in temperature.

A) Statement-1, is True, Statement - 2 is True; Statement - 2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.

B) Statement - 1 is True, Statement is True; Statement - 2, is NOT a correct explanation for Statement - 1.

C) Statement - 1 is True, Statement - 2, is False.

D) Statement - 1 is False, Statement - 2 is True.

Explanation:

Solubility of gases in liquid increases with pressure but decreases with temperature. So at higher temperature gas will be less
soluble in liquid.

Vapour pressure of any volatile liquid increases with temperature since vaporisatioin is an endothermic phenomenon.

Both the statements are true but not correct explaination.

Q.12 An aqueous solution of glucose was made by dissolving of glucose in of water. The relative 1 Mark
lowering in vapour pressure is
A)

B)

Q.13 At high altitudes the water boils at low temperature because 1 Mark

A) water molecules are bound with strong hydrogen bonds.

B) low atmospheric pressure.

C) high atmospheric pressure.

D) at low altitude the fuel does not give sufficient energy.

Explanation:

At high altitudes, the atmospheric pressure is low, due to which the vapour pressure of the liquid becomes equal to
the atmospheric pressure at a low temperature and the water boils at a low temperature.

Q.14 The osmotic pressure of   aqueous solution of   is ____ osmotic pressure of   aqueous 1 Mark
solution of glucose.
A) Equal to

B) Less than

C) Half of

D) Nearly double

Explanation:

The osmotic pressure of the solution 

For Sodium chloride, 

Glucose is a non-electrolyte, therefore, 

The osmotic pressure of sodium chloride 

The osmotic pressure of Glucose, 

Hence, the osmotic pressure of   aqueous solution of sodium chloride is nearly double the osmotic pressure of 
 aqueous solution of glucose.

Q.15 Which of the following compounds is used as antifreeze in automobile radiators? 1 Mark

A) Methyl alcohol

B) Glycol

C) Nitrophenol

D) Ethyl alcohol

Explanation:

Glycol is used as an antifreeze in automobile radiators.

when water freezes It lowers the freezing point of water and prevents the automobile engine from bursting due to
expansion when water freezes.
Glycol provides a wide temperature range in which the mixture remains in the liquid phase.

Q.16 The molarity of of , in the following reaction is: 1 Mark

A)

B)

C)

D)

Explanation:

Given, normality of 

Reaction given:

To find the molarity of  of .

By the relation between molarity, normality and valency factor,

Normality = Molarity valency factor

And here, the valency factor is defined as the change in the number of electrons per mole of a substance.

Change in the number of electrons =

So, molarity =

Q.17 Which inorganic precipitate acts as semi-permeable membrane? 1 Mark

A) Calcium sulphate 

B) Barium oxalate 

C) Nickel phosphate 

D) Copper ferrocyanide 

Explanation:

It has been found that cupric ferrocyanide consists of loosely and randomly packed  primary particles in the size
range of    and     which are large enough to allow passage to any non-colloidal molecule, is small enough to
be entirely within the range of capillary effects.
