6) Disproportionation reaction is a special type of redox reaction in which an element in
one oxidation state is simultaneously oxidised and reduced. E.g. The decomposition
of hydrogen peroxide.

7) H2SO4 + 2H2O → 2H3O+ + SO4 2-

10) Alkyl halides react with Na in dry ether to form higher alkanes. This reaction is
known as Wurtz reaction.

11)

12) The solution will be basic. Sodium acetate (CH3COONa) is a salt of weak acetic acid
and strong base NaOH. The acetate ion undergoes hydrolysis to produce acetic acid
and OH- ions. Hence, the solution becomes alkaline / basic.
13) Kp = Kc (RT) Δn
Δn = nP(g) – nR(g) = 2 – 4 = -2
Kp = Kc (RT) -2
14) Electromeric effect is the shifting of electrons in a multiple bond in presence of an
attacking reagent. It is a temporary effect. It is of two types. +E effect and -E effect.
15) c and d.
In a and b, two identical groups are attached to one of the doubly bonded carbon
atom.
 (Answer any 8 questions from 16 to 26. Each carries 3 scores.)
16) Solutions which resist the change in pH on dilution or with the addition of small amount
of acid or alkali is called Buffer solution. It is of two types.
Acidic buffer – A mixture of acetic acid and sodium acetate around a pH of
4.75.
Basic buffer – A mixture of NH4OH and NH4Cl around a pH of 9.25.

shared pair of electrons. the fragments.

19) i) According to Le Chatelier’s principle, as more reactant added, forward reaction

enhances. Here, decomposition of PCl5 increased.
i) As pressure increased, the system will shift in the direction where number of
moles decreases. Here, Backward reaction favours.
ii) Increase of temperature will shift the equilibrium in the direction of endothermic
reaction. Here forward reaction favours.
20) a)

23) Oxidation number method:

Step 1: The skeletal equation is: MnO4- + SO2 → Mn2+ + HSO4-
Step 2: Assign oxidation number each element and identify the elements undergoing change
in oxidation number.
Step 3: Calculate the change in oxidation number and make them equal by multiplying with
suitable number. Here the oxidation number of Mn is decreased by 5 and that of S is
increased by 2. In order to equate them multiply MnO4– by 2 and SO2 by 5.
2 MnO4 – + 5SO2 → 2 Mn2+ + 5HSO4 –
Step 4: Now balance the ionic charges on both sides. Here the net ionic charge on LHS is -2
and on RHS is -1. To equate them, add OH-on RHS [since the reaction takes place in basic
medium].
2 MnO4 – + 5SO2 → 2 Mn2+ + 5HSO4 – + OH-
Step 6: Now balance hydrogen atoms by adding sufficient number of H2O molecules. Here
add six H2O molecule on LHS.
2 MnO4 – + 5SO2 + 3H2O→ 2 Mn2+ + 5HSO4 – + OH-
Now the equation is balanced.
24) (i) Prediction of the extent of a reaction, Prediction of the direction of the reaction,
Calculation of equilibrium concentrations.
(ii) AgCl (s) ⇌ Ag+(aq) + Cl- (aq) KSP = S2.
Here KSP = 1.8×10-12
So, S = √KSP = √(1.8×10-12) = 1.34 x 10–6 M
25) (i) Hyper conjugation is a permanent effect. Here the σ electrons of C—H bond of the
alkyl group enters into partial conjugation with the unsaturated system or with the
unshared p orbital.
(ii) CH3+ < CH3-CH2+ < (CH3)2CH+ < (CH3)3C+
(iii) As the number of hyper conjugative structures increases, carbocation tends to
become more stabilized. There are 9, 6 and 3 hyper conjugative structures are possible
in tertiary, secondary and primary carbocations. No hyperconjugation possible in
methyl carbocation.

27) There are mainly four types of structural isomerism:
a) Chain Isomerism: Isomers differ in carbon chain or skeleton are called chain isomers
and the phenomenon is called chain isomerism.
Eg: Pentane with molecular formula C5H12

b) Position isomerism: Isomers which differ in the position of the substituent or side chain
are called position isomers and the phenomenon is called position isomerism.
E.g: Alcohol with molecular formula C4H10O
CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-OH (1-Butanol) & CH3-CHOH-CH2-CH3 (2-Butanol)
c) Functional group isomerism: Isomers which differ in the functional group are called
functional group isomers and the phenomenon is called functional group isomerism. This
isomerism is shown by alcohols and ethers or aldehydes and ketones.
E.g. compound with the molecular formula C2H6O
Ethanol (CH3-CH2OH) & Methoxymethane (CH3-O-CH3).
d) Metamerism: Isomers which differ in the carbon chain (alkyl groups) around the
functional group are called metamers and the phenomenon is called metamerism. It is
commonly shown by ethers.
E.g.: Ether with molecular formula C5H12O
Methoxybutane (CH3-O-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3) & Ethoxypropane (CH3-CH2-O-CH2-CH2-
CH3).

29) Detection of Nitrogen: To a little of sodium fusion extract add freshly prepared
ferrous sulphate (FeSO4) solution. Heated to boiling, cooled and acidified with dil.
H2SO4. Blue or green colouration or precipitate indicates the presence of nitrogen.
Detection of Sulphur:To a little of the sodium fusion extract, add sodium
nitroprusside solution. A violet colouration indicates the presence of sulphur. OR, The
 sodium fusion extract is acidified with acetic acid and lead acetate is added to it. A
black precipitate indicates the presence of sulphur.
Detection of halogen:To a little of the sodium fusion extract, add dil nitric acid and
silver nitrate solution. A white curdy precipitate soluble in ammonium hydroxide
indicates the presence of chlorine. A pale-yellow precipitate soluble slightly soluble in
ammonium hydroxide indicates the presence of bromine.
30) (i) Combination reactions: - A reaction in which one element combines
with another element or compound to form product is called combination
reactions.
2 H2 + O2→ 2H2O
Decomposition reactions: - A reaction in which a compound breaks down
to form two or more components in which one of the products should be in
elemental state.
2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2

Displacement reactions: - A reaction in which an atom or ion in a compound is

replaced by another atom or ion.
CuSO4 + Zn → Cu + ZnsO4 (Metal displaces a metal)

(ii)

Here, oxidation number of F2 decreases from 0 to -1, undergoes reduction and it acts as
oxidising agent and oxidation number of Oxygen in H2O increases from -2 to 0, undergoes
oxidation and acts as reducing agent.

the negative part of the addendum gets attached to the carbon containing lesser number of
hydrogen atom
