at the corner makes a contribution of 1/8 to the unit cell.
Thus, number of atoms Y per unit cell
= Number of atoms Contribution per unit cell
= 8 (at the corners) 1/8 atoms per unit cell
=1
Thus, number of atoms X per unit cell
= Number of atoms contribution per unit cell
= 1 (at the body centre) 1
=1

bonds. This makes rubber hard stiff. It prevents the intermolecular movement of rubber
springs resulting in change of physical character of rubber.

(a) A part of the water surface is occupied by non - volatile glucose molecules. This
decreases the effective surface area for the vaporization of water molecules. Consequently,
the vapour pressure of solution of glucose in water is lower than that of water.
(b) A 6.90 M solution contains 6.90 mol of KOH in 1000 cm3 of the solution.

(a) The path of light becomes visible when passed through the colloidal solution while it is
not visible in case of true solution. This is because of Tyndall effect caused by the scattering
of light by colloidal particles.
(b) Applications of adsorption:
(i) Activated charcoal is used in gas masks to remove poisonous gases such as CH1, CO, etc.
(ii) Animal charcoal is used as decolouriser in the manufacture of sugar.
(iii) Silica is used for removing moisture.
(iv) The ion exchange resins are used for removing hardness of water.
Or
(a) A lyophilic sol is stable due to the charge and the hydration of sol particles. Such a sol
can only be coagulated by removing the water and adding solvents like alcohol, acetone,
etc. and then an electrolyte.
On the other hand, a lyophobic sol is stable due to the charge only and hence can be easily
coagulated by adding small amount of an electrolyte.
(b) The colloidal particles get precipitated i.e., ferric hydroxide is precipitated. When an
excess of electrolyte (e.g., NaCl solution) is added to the colloidal solution of ferric
hydroxide. This is because of the fact that colloids interact with the ions carrying the charge
opposite (Cl) to the one present on them. This causes neutralisation, which leads to their
coagulation.
(c) The atmospheric particles of colloidal range scatter blue component of the white
sunlight preferentially. That is why the sky appears blue.
Sol. 19 Argentite, which is a sulphide ore, is the chief source of silver.
It is extracted by the process of leaching with a dilute solution of sodium cyanide.
Silver dissolves and forms a complex, argentocyanide. It is further treated with scrap zinc,
which displaces silver from the complex. This is called displacement method or
hydrometallurgy. The chemical reactions involved are given below.

(ii) Aldol condensation: In the presence of a dilute alkali, aldehydes and ketones (having at
least one -hydrogen atom) produce -hydroxyl aldehyde (aldol) and -hydroxyl ketone
respectively. The aldol and ketol then readily lose water to give , -unsaturated carboxyl
compounds. Such reactions are called aldol condensation.
For example, in the presence of dil. NaOH, ethanal (aldehyde) produces 3-hydroxybutanal
(aldol), which then readily loses water to produce but-2-enal.
(b) When warmed with iodine and sodium hydroxide solution, ethanal gives yellow
crystals of iodoform.
Propanal does not give this iodoform test

(i) Benzene ring in aromatic amines is highly activated. This is due to the displacement of
lone pair of nitrogen towards the ring, which results in the increase in the electron density
on the ring. This facilitates the electrophilic attack on the ring.
(ii) In CH3CONH2, the lone pair of electrons on nitrogen atom is involved in resonance with
the carbonyl group. So the electron pair of nitrogen is not easily available for protonation.
Hence CH3CONH2 is a weaker base than CH3CH2NH2.
(iii) Nitro compounds are polar compounds whereas hydrocarbons are non-polar. Due to
their polarity, nitro compounds have higher boiling points than the hydrocarbons having
almost same molecular mass.

compounds used for the treatment of stress, anxiety, and mild or severe mental
diseases. They are essential components of sleeping pills.

(a) At cathode, the following reduction reactions can take place:
A reduction reaction with higher reduction potential is preferred. Therefore, the reaction at
the cathode during electrolysis is
At anode, the reaction with lower value of E0 is preferred. But, due to overvoltage,
oxidation of chloride ion occurs and chlorine gas is obtained. Hence, the reaction at the
anode during electrolysis is
This is why electrolysis of aqueous solution of NaCl gives Cl2 at the anode.
The overall cell reaction is given below.

(a) Emf of the given cell = Eocathode - Eoanode
= [- 0.40 - (- 0.76)] V
= [-0.40 + 0.76] V = 0.36 V
Thus, the emf of the given cell is 0.36 V.
or
(a) (i) The alkaline medium prevents the availability of H+ ions. This in turn reduces rate of
oxidation of Fe to Fe2+. Thus, the rusting of iron is inhibited.
(ii) Even if the zinc coating is broken in an iron pipe, the remaining zinc layer undergoes
oxidation in preference to iron because of its more electropositive nature than iron. Hence
iron does not rust.
(b) (i) Since E0Ag+/Ag is greater than EoCu2+/Cu so reduction will occur at silver electrode. The

(a) Aluminium bromide exists as a dimer, Al2Br6. In this structure, each aluminium atom
forms one coordinate bond by accepting a lone pair of electrons from the bromine atom of
another aluminum bromide molecule and thus completes an octet of electrons. Due to the
lack of free electrons, molten aluminum bromide is a poor conductor of electricity.

nature, it conducts current on fusion.
