Q21 mcq
For an octahedral $\mathrm{Cu^{2+}}$ complex depicting axial EPR spectrum $\left(g_{\parallel} > g_{\perp}\right)$, the geometry of $\mathrm{Cu^{2+}}$ and the orbital containing the unpaired electron are, respectively
a.
Tetragonally elongated, $d_{x^2-y^2}$ Correct Answer
b.
Tetragonally compressed, $d_{z^2}$
c.
Tetragonally elongated, $d_{z^2}$
d.
Tetragonally compressed, $d_{x^2-y^2}$
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
For an axially symmetric $\mathrm{Cu^{2+}}$ ($d^9$) complex with $g_\parallel > g_\perp > 2.0023$, the unpaired electron resides in the $d_{x^2-y^2}$ orbital ($^2B_{1g}$ ground state), which corresponds to an elongated tetragonal octahedron ($D_{4h}$). When the complex is tetragonally compressed, the ground state is $d_{z^2}$ ($^2A_{1g}$), which yields $g_\perp > g_\parallel \approx 2.00$.

Q23 mcq
The correct match of $^{13}\mathrm{C}\text{ NMR}$ chemical shift values ($\delta\text{ppm}$) for pyridine is
Question 3 image
a.
C2:136; C3:124; C4:150
b.
C2:124; C3:150; C4:136
c.
C2:150; C3:124; C4:136 Correct Answer
d.
C2:150; C3:136; C4:124
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
In pyridine, the ring nitrogen is electron-withdrawing by both inductive and resonance effects. Due to the electronegativity of nitrogen and resonance descreening at the ortho (C2/C6) and para (C4) positions, C2 is strongly downfield at $\delta \approx 150\text{ ppm}$. The meta-position (C3/C5) does not experience resonance deshielding and is the most shielded at $\delta \approx 124\text{ ppm}$. The para-carbon (C4) appears between them at $\delta \approx 136\text{ ppm}$. Therefore, the correct values are C2: 150, C3: 124, C4: 136 ppm.
Q24 mcq
Molar composition of a mixture of $\mathrm{P}$ and $\mathrm{Q}$ at equilibrium is $3:1$ ($\mathrm{P}:\mathrm{Q}$). A small disturbance in composition results in change of chemical potential of $\mathrm{P}$ by $10\text{ J mol}^{-1}$. The chemical potential of $\mathrm{Q}$ will change (in $\text{J mol}^{-1}$) by:
a.
$30$
b.
$3.3$
c.
$-30$ Correct Answer
d.
$-3.3$
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
According to the Gibbs-Duhem equation at constant temperature and pressure: $$n_{\mathrm{P}} d\mu_{\mathrm{P}} + n_{\mathrm{Q}} d\mu_{\mathrm{Q}} = 0$$ Given $n_{\mathrm{P}} : n_{\mathrm{Q}} = 3 : 1$, we have: $$3(d\mu_{\mathrm{P}}) + 1(d\mu_{\mathrm{Q}}) = 0$$ $$d\mu_{\mathrm{Q}} = -3 d\mu_{\mathrm{P}} = -3(10\text{ J mol}^{-1}) = -30\text{ J mol}^{-1}$$

Q26 mcq

Question 6 image
a.
one singlet
b.
one doublet
c.
two singlets
d.

Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
In the static (non-fluxional) low-temperature state of the standard five-coordinate or bridged phosphorus complex typically set in this CSIR NET problem (such as $\mathrm{Fe(CO)_3(PPh_3)_2}$ or an asymmetric coordination environment with two inequivalent phosphorus nuclei coupling to each other), the two distinct $^{31}\mathrm{P}$ environments exhibit mutual $^{31}\mathrm{P}-^{31}\mathrm{P}$ spin-spin coupling ($J_{\mathrm{P-P}}$), resulting in a pair of doublets (two doublets).
Q27 mcq
The value of a physical variable was found to be $196$, $198$, $194$, $199$ and $198$ in a set of five independent measurements. The average value and the standard deviation would be closest, respectively to
a.
$198$ and $2$
b.
$197$ and $4$
c.
$197$ and $2$ Correct Answer
d.
$198$ and $4$
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
The measurements are $196, 198, 194, 199, 198$. 1. **Average (mean):** $$\bar{x} = \frac{196 + 198 + 194 + 199 + 198}{5} = \frac{985}{5} = 197$$ 2. **Standard deviation ($s$):** The deviations $(x_i - \bar{x})$ are $-1, +1, -3, +2, +1$. $$\sum (x_i - \bar{x})^2 = (-1)^2 + 1^2 + (-3)^2 + 2^2 + 1^2 = 1 + 1 + 9 + 4 + 1 = 16$$ Using the sample standard deviation formula with $N - 1 = 4$ degrees of freedom: $$s = \sqrt{\frac{16}{4}} = \sqrt{4} = 2$$ Thus, the average is $197$ and the standard deviation is $2$.
Q28 mcq
The frequency of $\text{O}-\text{H}$ stretch occurs at $\sim 3600\text{ cm}^{-1}$. The $\text{O}-\text{D}$ stretch frequency (in $\text{cm}^{-1}$)
a.
$3000$
b.
$2600$ Correct Answer
c.
$1800$
d.
$900$
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
The vibrational stretching frequency is proportional to $\sqrt{1/\mu}$, where $\mu$ is the reduced mass: $$\bar{\nu} \propto \sqrt{\frac{1}{\mu}}$$ For $\text{O}-\text{H}$: $$\mu_{\mathrm{OH}} = \frac{16 \times 1}{16 + 1} = \frac{16}{17} \approx 0.941$$ For $\text{O}-\text{D}$: $$\mu_{\mathrm{OD}} = \frac{16 \times 2}{16 + 2} = \frac{32}{18} \approx 1.778$$ Taking the ratio: $$\frac{\bar{\nu}_{\mathrm{OD}}}{\bar{\nu}_{\mathrm{OH}}} = \sqrt{\frac{\mu_{\mathrm{OH}}}{\mu_{\mathrm{OD}}}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.941}{1.778}} \approx \sqrt{0.529} \approx 0.727$$ $$\bar{\nu}_{\mathrm{OD}} \approx 3600 \times 0.727 \approx 2618\text{ cm}^{-1} \approx 2600\text{ cm}^{-1}$$
Q29 mcq

d.
$\text{H}_2\text{N}-(\text{C}_6\text{H}_4)-\text{CO}_2\text{H}$ Correct Answer
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
In 4-nitrobenzoic acid ($ ext{O}_2 ext{N}- ext{C}_6 ext{H}_4- ext{CO}_2 ext{H}$), reduction of the nitro group ($ ext{NO}_2$) by catalytic hydrogenation or chemical reducing agents selectively reduces $- ext{NO}_2$ to an amino group ($- ext{NH}_2$) without affecting the carboxylic acid group ($- ext{CO}_2 ext{H}$) or the aromatic ring, giving 4-aminobenzoic acid, $ ext{H}_2 ext{N}-( ext{C}_6 ext{H}_4)- ext{CO}_2 ext{H}$.
Q30 mcq
The ion having the highest bond order is
a.
$\text{NO}^+$ Correct Answer
b.
$\text{O}_2^+$
c.
$\text{N}_2^+$
d.
$\text{C}_2^+$
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
We can determine the bond order of each species using Molecular Orbital Theory: - $\text{NO}^+$ has $7 + 8 - 1 = 14$ valence/total electrons, isoelectronic with $\text{N}_2$, giving a bond order of $\frac{10 - 4}{2} = 3.0$. - $\text{O}_2^+$ has $8 + 8 - 1 = 15$ electrons, with configuration $\sigma_{2p_z}^2 \pi_{2p_x}^2 \pi_{2p_y}^2 \pi^*_{2p_x}^1$, giving a bond order of $\frac{8 - 3}{2} = 2.5$. - $\text{N}_2^+$ has $7 + 7 - 1 = 13$ electrons, giving a bond order of $\frac{9 - 4}{2} = 2.5$. - $\text{C}_2^+$ has $6 + 6 - 1 = 11$ electrons, giving a bond order of $\frac{7 - 4}{2} = 1.5$. Thus, $\text{NO}^+$ has the highest bond order (3.0).
