Section D
29. Read the text carefully and answer the questions: [4]
The f-block consists of elements in which 4f and 5f orbitals are progressively filled. They are placed in a
separate panel at the bottom of the periodic table. The names transition metals and inner transition metals are
often used to refer to the elements of d-and f-blocks respectively. The d–block occupies the large middle section
of the periodic table flanked between s and p blocks in the periodic table. In general, the electronic configuration

of the outer orbitals of these elements is (n - 1)d1-10ns1-2. The electronic configurations of outer orbitals of Zn,

Cd, Hg and Cn are represented by the general formula (n - 1)d10ns2. The transition metals and their compounds
also exhibit catalytic property and paramagnetic behaviour. Transition metal also forms an alloy. An alloy is a
blend of metals prepared by mixing the components. Alloys may be homogeneous solid solutions in which the
atoms of one metal are distributed randomly among the atoms of the other.

30. Read the text carefully and answer the questions: [4]
Many chemical and biological processes depend on osmosis, the selective passage of solvent molecules through
the porous membrane from a dilute solution to a more concentrated one. The osmotic pressure π depends on
molar concentration of the solution (π = CRT). If two solutions are of equal solute concentration and, hence,
have the same osmotic pressure, they are said to be isotonic. If two solutions are of unequal osmotic pressures,
the more concentrated solution is said to be hypertonic and the more diluted solution is described as hypotonic.
Osmosis is the major mechanism, for transporting water upward in the plants. Transpiration is the leaves
supports the transport mechanism of water. The osmotic pressure of seawater is about 30 atm; this is the pressure
that must be applied to the seawater (separated from pure water using a semi-permeable membrane) to get
drinking water.
(a) What will happen if a plant cell kept in a hypertonic solution?
(b) Blood cells are isotonic with 0.9% sodium chloride solution. What happens if we place blood cells in a

(d) Some enzymes are named after the reaction, where they are used. What name is given to the class of [1]

substrate?
(e) State a use of streptokinase in protein. [1]
(f) Name purines present in DNA? [1]
