Que: Arrange the following in each as instructed (i)    O, F, S, Cl, N in order of increasing strength of hydrogen bonding (X — H – X). (ii)  N2, O2, F2, Cl2 in increasing order of bond dissociation energy. Ans: (i)  Strength of hydrogen bonding depends on the electronegativity of the atom linked with hydrogen. Thus the order is S < Cl < N < O < F (ii) The increasing order is F2 < Cl2 < O2 < N2. Both fluorine and chlorine atoms in F2 and Cl2 possess three non-bonded electron pairs each. Due to the small…

Metals and Non-Metals Class 10 – Important Points The post Metals and Non-Metals Class 10 – Important Points is about the summary of the whole chapter Metals and Non-Metals Class 10. Metals are lustrous, malleable, ductile and have high density. Metals are generally good conductors of heat and electricity. Metals form positive ions by losing electrons. All metals combine with oxygen to form metal oxides. Metal oxides are basic in nature. Metals react with chlorine to form electrovalent chloride of metals. Metals like Li, Na and Ca form hydrides with hydrogen. There are metal-bearing substances below the earth’s surface which…

Que. Write down the conclusion made from the α-scattering experiment and the defects of the Rutherford model of the atom. Ans. Conclusions of α-scattering experiment (a) Most of the space in the atom is empty as most of the α-particles passed undeflected. (b) A few positively charged α-particles were deflected. This shows that they are deflected by the small positively charged body in the atom. (c) The positively charged body called the nucleus is very small of radius 10–15 m as compared to the radius of the atom which is about 10–10 m. Defects: (i) Position of electrons: The exact…

Slater’s Rules and Effective Nuclear Charge Consider an electron in one of the atomic orbitals of a multi-electron atom. Because of the repulsion by other electrons in the same or different orbitals, the nuclear charge felt by this electron will be less than the actual nuclear charge. This electron is said to be screened from the influence of the nuclear charge and the reduced charge felt by the electron is known as The Effective Nuclear Charge (Zeff). The intervening electrons screen the electrons present in the peripheral s, p, d or f orbitals of even the same principal shell to…

Normality and Molarity NORMALITY: Normality is one way to express the concentration of the solution It is the number of gram equivalents of a solute present in one litre of solution. w = Mass of solute in gram V = Volume of solution in ml E = Equivalent weight of solute The equivalent weight of Solute: It is the number of parts by weight of the substance that combines or displaces, directly or indirectly, 1.008 parts by mass of hydrogen or 8 parts by mass of oxygen, or 35.5 parts by mass of chlorine. It can be calculated as (i)…

Que: A compound made up of two elements A and B has A= 70 %, B = 30 %. Their relative number of moles in the compound are 1.25 and 1.88. calculate a. Atomic masses of the elements A and B b. Molecular formula of the compound, if its molecular mass is found to be 160. Ans. Relative no. of moles of an element = % of the element/Atomic mass Atomic mass = % of the element/Relative no. of moles = 70/1.25 = 56 Atomic mass of B = 30/1.88 = 16 Calculation of Empirical formula Element Relative no. of…
