Q51 mcq
The compound which shows metamerism is:
a.
C3H6O
b.
C4H10O Correct Answer
c.
C5H12
d.
C3H8O
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
Metamerism occurs in ethers (among others) where the alkyl groups attached to the heteroatom vary. C4H10O can exist as diethyl ether (CH3CH2-O-CH2CH3) or methyl propyl ether (CH3-O-CH2CH2CH3).
Q54 mcq
Zr (Z=40) and Hf (Z=72) have similar atomic and ionic radii because of:
a.
lanthanoid contraction Correct Answer
b.
having similar chemical properties
c.
belonging to same group
d.
diagonal relationship
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
The filling of 4f orbitals causes lanthanoid contraction, which offsets the expected increase in size down the group, making Zr and Hf have almost identical radii.
Q55 mcq

a.
2, 1
b.
12, 6 Correct Answer
c.
8, 4
d.
6, 12
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
In HCP, the number of atoms per unit cell is 6. Octahedral voids = n = 6. Tetrahedral voids = 2n = 12.
Q56 mcq
BF3 is planar and electron deficient compound. Hybridization and number of electrons around the central atom, respectively are:
a.
sp2 and 6 Correct Answer
b.
sp2 and 8
c.
sp3 and 4
d.
sp3 and 6
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
Boron in BF3 has 3 valence electrons and forms 3 bonds (6 electrons total), hence it is sp2 hybridized and electron deficient (incomplete octet).
Q56 mcq
BF3 is planar and electron deficient compound. Hybridization and number of electrons around the central atom, respectively are :
a.
sp2 and 6 Correct Answer
b.
sp2 and 8
c.
sp3 and 4
d.
sp3 and 6
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
In BF3, Boron has 3 valence electrons and forms 3 single bonds with Fluorine atoms, resulting in 6 electrons in its valence shell. The steric number is 3, leading to sp2 hybridization.
Q57 mcq
The following solutions were prepared by dissolving 10 g of glucose (C6H12O6) in 250 ml of water (P1), 10 g of urea (CH4N2O) in 250 ml of water (P2) and 10 g of sucrose (C12H22O11) in 250 ml of water (P3). The right option for the decreasing order of osmotic pressure of these solutions is :
a.
P2 > P3 > P1
b.
P3 > P1 > P2
c.
P2 > P1 > P3 Correct Answer
d.
P1 > P2 > P3
Step-by-Step AI Explanation
Verified Method
Osmotic pressure (pi) is proportional to molarity (M = mass / (Molar mass * Volume)). Molar masses: Urea (60) < Glucose (180) < Sucrose (342). Since mass and volume are equal, osmotic pressure follows inverse order of molar mass: Urea > Glucose > Sucrose.
