Question 13.
Explain Werner’s theory of co-ordination compounds with suitable examples.
Answer:
Werner’s theory :
Postulates :
1) Every complex compound has a central meted atom (or) ion
2) The central metal shows two types of valencies namely primary valency and secondary valancy.

A) Primary valency :
The primary valency is numerically equal to the oxidation state of the metal. Species or groups bound by primary valencies undergo complete ionization. These valencies are identical with ionic bonds and are non- directional. These valencies are represented by discontinuous lines (…..)
E.g. : CoCl3 contains CO3+ and 3Cl+ ions. There are three Primary Valencies or three ionic bonds.

B) Secondary Valency :
Each metal has a characteristic number of Secondary Valencies. They are directed in space around the central metal.
The number of Secondary Valencies is called Co-ordination number (C.N.) of the metal. These valencies are directional in Nature. For example in CoCl3. 6NH3

Three Cl ions are held by primary Valencies and 6NH3 molecules are held by Secondary Valencies. In CuSO4. 4NH3 complex SO42- ion is held by two Primary Valencies and 4NH3 molecules are held by Secondary Vacencies.

3) Some negative ligands, depending upon the complex, may satisfy both primary and secondary valencies. Such ligands, in a complex, which satisfy both primary as well as secondary valencies do not ionize.

4) The primary valency of a metal is known as its outer sphere of attraction or ionizable valency while the Secondary valencies are known as the inner sphere of attraction or coordination sphere. Groups bound by secondary valencies do not undergo ionization in the complex.

(a) Anti-ferromagnetism
(b) Frenkel defect
Answer:
a) Anti ferro magnetism :
Substances like MnO showing anti – ferromagnetism . having domain structure similar to ferromagnetic substance, but their domains are oppositely oriented and cancel out each other magnetic moment.

b) Frenkel defect:

  1. It is a point defect in which an atom or iron is shifted from its normal lattice position”. The ion or the atom now occupies an interstitial position in the lattice.
  2. This type of a defect is favoured by a large difference in sizes between the cation and anion. In these compounds co-ordination number-is low. Eg : Ag – halides, ZnS etc.

Question 17.
What is catalysis ? How is catalysis classified ? Give one example for each of catalysis.
Answer:
Catalysis:
A substance which alters the rate of a chemical reaction without itself being consumed in the process, is called a catalyst.
The action of catalyst in altering the rate of a chemical reaction is called catalysis.

Types of catalysis :
Catalysis is classified into two types as a) Homogeneous catalysis and b) Heterogeneous catalysis.

Homogeneous catalysis :
The catalytic process in which the catalyst is present in the same phase as that of reactants, is known as homogeneous catalysis.

Question 20.
(i) State Faraday’s first and second laws of electrolysis. A solution of CuSO. is electrolysed for 10 minutes with a current of 1.5 amperes. What is the mass of copper deposited at the cathod ? ,
Answer:
t = 600 s charge = current × time = 1.5 A × 600 s = 900 C According to the reaction :
Cu(aq)2+ + 2e = Cu(s)
We require 2F or 2 × 96487 C to deposit 1 mol or 63 g of Cu. For 900 C, the mass of Gu deposited
= (63 g mol-1 × 900 C) / (2 × 96487 C mol-1) = 0.2938 g

(ii) What is molecularity of a reaction? How is it different from the order of a reaction ? Name one bimolecular and one trimolecular gaseous reactions.
Answer:
The number of reacting species (atoms, ions or molecules) taking parts in an elementary reaction, which must colloid simultaneously to bring about a chemical reaction is called molecularity of a reaction.

NH4NO2 → N2 + 2H2O (Unimolecular)
2HI → H2 + I2 (Bimolecular)
2NO + O2 → 2NO2 ( Trimolecular)

  1. Molecularity has only integer values (1, 2, 3 …….)
  2. It has non zero, non fraction values while order has zero,1, 2, 3 and fractional values.
  3. It is determined by reaction mechanism, order is determined experimentally.

(ii) Describe the manufacture of H2SO4 by contact process.
Answer:
Manufacture of H2SO2 by contact process:
Manufacturing of H2SO2 involves three main steps.

Step – 1:
SO2 production : The required SO2 for this process is .obtained by burning S(or) Iron pyrites in oxygen.
S + O2 → SO2
4FeS2 + 15O2 → 2Fe2O3 + 8SO3

Step – 2 :
SO3 formation : SO2 is oxidised in presence of catalyst with atmosphric air to form SO3 catalyst
AP Inter 2nd Year Chemistry Question Paper March 2020 - 13

Step – 3 :
Formation of H2SO4: SO3 formed in the above step absorbed in 98% H2SO4 to get oleum (H2S2O7). This oleum is diluted to get desired concentration of H2SO4.
SO3 + H2SO4 → H2S2O7
H2S2O7 + H2O → 2H2SO4
