1 B Nu. Of neutron = Nucleon number -proton number
= 33-16
= 17
Number of electrons = 17 and number of protons =16
The charge on ion Y = -1
2 B XCl(aq) + AgNO3 → XNO3 + AgCl

Mass of XCl required to produce 1 mol (143.5 g) of AgCl

= 143.5/28.7 x 14.9
=74.5 g

Let the Ar of X = a g
(a + 35.5) = 74.5
a = 39.0
3 A Both H and He+ have only one electron in their structure, so they will have similar line
spectrum.
4 D Vacant 4s orbitals have energy that is lower than that of 3d orbitals.

BeCl2 Linear 180º
BF3 Trigonal planar 120º
CO32- Trigonal planar 120º
SO42- Tetrahedral 109.5º
7 D W, X, Y and Z are metals which form metallic bonds. However, Z is a transition
element. Z can make use of the 4s as well as the 3d electrons to form metallic bonds.
Thus, the metallic bond in Z is the strongest.
8 D Assuming the gas shows ideal behavior.
Using the ideal gas equation :pV= nRT
(73.5 x 103) (250 x 10-6) = n x 8.31 x (23+273)
n = 7.4 x 10-3 mol

Mr = 0.118/7.4 x 10-3
= 15.9
So, molar mass of X = 15.9 g mol-1
9 C Addition of non volatile solute, glucose decreases the vapour pressure, increases
the boiling point and decreases the melting point of water.
10 A Since the rate = k [P]a [Q]b => 8 x rate = k x 23 ; therefore overall order is 3rd order.
11 A When volume of vessel is doubled,
Rate = k[X/2][Y/2]2
= 1/8 k[X][Y]2
3.2 X 10 = k(0.20/2.0)(0.10/2.0)2
-4

k = 1.28 dm6mol-2s-1
rate -determining step involves 3 molecules, that means the unit of k is dm 6mol-2 s-1

12 B To cause equilibrium shift to right, it can be done by increasing temperature, as

forward reaction is endothermic, therefore equilibrium shift to right.
13 D H2O ↔ H + + OH- As T increase ; equilibrium shift to right ; therefore increasing both
concentration [H+ ] and [OH- ] therefore decreasing pH
14 C

15 A In a negative deviation (lower vapour pressure ; higher boiling point) distillation at

40% Y will yield pure Y as first distillate and azeotropic mixture as second distillate
and pure X to be the residue. Y (methanol) has lower boiling point than X (ethanol),
therefore Y is more volatile.

i. An orbital is defined as a region of space in an atom in which the high 1
probability of finding an electron.

ii. Aufbau principle is violated as electrons should fill the 1s orbital first. 1

(a) Covalent bond is the electrostatic attraction between adjacent nuclei and the
electron that are shared between them. 1
An example is Cl2. Each chlorine atom shares one of its unpaired valence
electron with another chlorine atom so that both achieve octet configurations. 1

In the HF molecule, the hydrogen atom is bonded to a very small and highly 1
electronegative fluorine atom.

Hydrogen bonding

(b) NH3 and H2O have intermolecular hydrogen bonding while 1

weak van der Waals forces exist between CH4 molecules. 1

H2O has two lone pair of electrons compared to only one for NH3. 1
Thus, H2O can form more intermolecular hydrogen bonding with one another. 1
On top of that, oxygen being more electronegative than nitrogen forms stronger 1
hydrogen bond.

(c ) (i) Both HCl and CO2 have weak van der Waals’ forces between molecules. 1
CO2 has stronger van der Waals’ forces because the size of CO 2 is bigger 1
than HCl

(ii) Intermolecular forces between NH 3 molecules are the hydrogen bonds. 1

Weak intermolecular van der Waals forces exist between HCl molecules. 1

(iii) NH3 can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. 1

HCl reacts with water to form water-soluble ions: OR 1
