(c) 0.1 molal BaCl2 solution
Explanation: i=3 so ΔTb will be maximum and hence Tb will be maximum.

(c) A is true but R is false.
Explanation: In an ideal solution, A−BA−B interactions are the same as A−AA−A and B−BB−B interactions.

Explanation: In a lead storage battery, all of these statements are true.
Explanation:

AL
i. The lead storage battery is a rechargeable battery.
ii. This battery has a pure lead as anode; lead(IV) oxide as a cathode and dilute sulfuric acid as an electrolyte.
iii. When the battery is being used, lead(IV) oxide is reduced to PdSO4 and lead is oxidized to PdSO4.
iv. When the battery is being charged, PdSO₄ is again converted into PbO2 and Pb as cathode and anode respectively.

4. (a) reduced form is more stable compared to hydrogen gas
Explanation: The standard hydrogen electrode is a reduction-oxidation electrode which forms the standard of the scale of
oxidation-reduction potentials. It is given a scale of zero.
EC

2H+(aq) + 2e− ⇌ H2(g) T

Now if an electrode is having greater electrode potential than standard or zero scales then we can infer that its reduced form is
more stable compared to hydrogen (H​2) gas. It is more likely that metals ions will be formed than the hydrogen gas.

The reaction at the anode with a lower value of Eo​cell
​ should be preferred, but oxidation of O2 is a kinetically slow process and
needs high voltage thus reaction (i) takes place.

(b) 5F
Explanation: For reduction of M nO to Mn2+ 5 mol of electrons are required to deposit 1 mol of Mn2+ ion. so total charge

9.
(d) A is false but R is true.
Explanation: Transition metals have higher melting points till the middle of the series, then their melting point decreases. This
is due to the number of lone pairs in the metal, which makes the metal stronger.
10.
(c) Mn2+
Explanation: Mn2+ has d5 configuration so a maximum number of unpaired electrons and hence maximum magnetic moment.
This magnetic moment can be calculated by using the spin only formula: μ = ∠n(n + 2) , where n= number of unpaired
so

electrons.

Explanation: Ionization isomerism- One isomer is [Co(NH3)4Cl2]NO2, where NO2 ions is outside the complex and another

isomer is [Co(NH3)4Cl2NO2]Cl where Cl- ion is outside the complex.

22. KCl in a kg of water would be expected to increase the boiling point by 2 × 0.52 K = 1.04 K. This could led us to conclude that
mass of 2 moles of particles is 74.5 g hence mass of 1 mole of KCl would be 37.25 g. Hence, in case of KCl where dissociation
occurs experimentally determined molar mass is always lower than true value.

26. i. a. The catalytic activities of transition metals and their compounds is due to the ability of adopt variable oxidation states and
to form complexes. It can also provide a large surface area for the reactants to be adsorbed.
b. Separation of lanthanoid elements is difficult because all lanthanoid elements have almost similar physical as well as
chemical properties. Due to the lanthanoid contraction, the change in the atomic or ionic radii is very small.
c. Zn, Cd, and Mg are soft and have a low melting point because they have filled d-orbitals due to which the metallic bond
formed is very weak.
