Question 2: When 8.3 g of hydrated copper sulphate (\( \ce{CuSO4.5H2O} \)) reacts with excess potassium iodide, the amount of iodine liberated is:
(a) 42.3 g
(b) 24.3 g
(c) 4.23 g
(d) 2.43 g
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) 4.23 g

Explanation:
1. \( \ce{2CuSO4.5H2O + 4KI -> Cu2I2 + I2 + 2K2SO4 + 10H2O} \).
2. Molar mass of 2 \( \ce{CuSO4.5H2O} \) = 2 × 249 = 498 g, which liberates 1 mol \( \ce{I2} \) = 254 g.
3. Iodine liberated = \( \dfrac{254}{498}\times8.3=4.23 \) g.

Question 3: The compound used for gravimetric estimation of copper(II) is:
(a) \( \ce{CuSCN} \)
(b) \( \ce{Cu2O} \)
(c) \( \ce{Cu2I2} \)
(d) \( \ce{Cu2CO3} \)
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) \( \ce{CuSCN} \)

Explanation:
1. Copper(II) is first reduced to copper(I) and then precipitated as the sparingly soluble copper(I) thiocyanate, CuSCN.
2. CuSCN is dried and weighed, so it is the weighing form.
3. The other compounds are not used as the weighing form.

Question 4: Dimethylglyoxime gives a red precipitate with \( \ce{Ni^2+} \), which is used for its detection. To get this precipitate readily, the best pH range is:
(a) < 1
(b) 2 – 3
(c) 3 – 4
(d) 9 – 11
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) 9 – 11

Explanation:
1. Each dimethylglyoxime molecule loses a proton on forming the nickel complex, \( \ce{Ni^2+ + 2 dmgH2 -> Ni(dmgH)2 + 2H+} \).
2. A basic or ammoniacal medium removes these protons and drives the reaction forward.
3. In acid the nitrogen atoms are protonated and cannot bind nickel, so the best range is pH 9 – 11.

Question 7: The reagent that can distinguish between silver and lead salts is:
(a) \( \ce{H2S} \) gas
(b) Hot dilute HCl solution
(c) \( \ce{NH4Cl} \) (solid) + \( \ce{NH4OH} \) (solution)
(d) \( \ce{NH4Cl} \) (solid) + \( \ce{(NH4)2CO3} \) solution
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) Hot dilute HCl solution

Explanation:
1. Both \( \ce{Ag+} \) and \( \ce{Pb^2+} \) give white chlorides with HCl.
2. PbCl₂ is soluble in hot water and so dissolves in hot dilute HCl, while AgCl does not.
3. So hot dilute HCl separates the two; the other reagents give precipitates with both.

Question 8: A laboratory reagent imparts green colour to the flame. On heating with solid \( \ce{K2Cr2O7} \) and conc. \( \ce{H2SO4} \) it evolves a red gas. Identify the reagent.
(a) \( \ce{CaCl2} \)
(b) \( \ce{BaCl2} \)
(c) \( \ce{CuCl2} \)
(d) None of these
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) \( \ce{BaCl2} \)

Explanation:
1. The red gas is chromyl chloride, \( \ce{CrO2Cl2} \), which shows that the reagent is a chloride.
2. Barium gives a green (apple-green) flame: \( \ce{2BaCl2 + K2Cr2O7 + 3H2SO4} \) forms \( \ce{2CrO2Cl2} \), \( \ce{2BaSO4} \) and other products.
3. CaCl₂ gives a brick-red flame, so the reagent is BaCl₂.

Question 9:
Assertion (A): Potassium is not used in the Lassaigne test.
Reason (R): Potassium reacts vigorously.
(a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true, but R is false.
(d) A is false, but R is true.
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:
1. Sodium fusion is used in the Lassaigne test because sodium reacts safely enough with the organic compound.
2. Potassium reacts too vigorously (even explosively), so it is not used. Both statements are true and the reason explains the assertion.

Question 10:
Assertion (A): During the test for nitrogen with Lassaigne extract on adding \( \ce{FeCl3} \) solution, sometimes a red precipitate is obtained.
Reason (R): Sulphur is also present.
(a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true, but R is false.
(d) A is false, but R is true.
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:
1. If both N and S are present, sodium thiocyanate is formed: \( \ce{Na + C + S + N -> NaSCN} \).
2. With \( \ce{Fe^3+} \) it gives blood red \( \ce{Fe(SCN)3} \) colouration, so the red colour is due to the presence of sulphur.
3. Both statements are true and the reason explains the assertion.

Question 11:
Assertion (A): Sb(III) is not precipitated as sulphide when \( \ce{H2S} \) is passed in its alkaline solution.
Reason (R): The concentration of \( \ce{S^2-} \) ion in alkaline medium is inadequate for precipitation.
(a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true, but R is false.
(d) A is false, but R is true.
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) A is false, but R is true.

Explanation:
1. In alkaline medium \( \ce{H2S} \) ionises more, so the sulphide ion concentration is high, and Sb(III) is easily precipitated.
2. The assertion is false.
3. The concentration of \( \ce{S^2-} \) is large, not inadequate, in alkaline solution, so the reason is false.

Question 12:
Assertion (A): Borax bead test is not suitable for Al(III).
Reason (R): Al₂O₃ is insoluble in water.
(a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true, but R is false.
(d) A is false, but R is true.
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:
1. Borax bead gives coloured metaborates with many transition metals, but aluminium gives a colourless bead, so the test is not suitable. The assertion is true.
2. Al₂O₃ is indeed insoluble in water, so the reason is true.
3. Insolubility in water has nothing to do with the colour of the bead, so it is not the explanation.

Question 13:
Assertion (A): In iodometric titration, starch is used as an indicator.
Reason (R): Starch is a polysaccharide.
(a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true, but R is false.
(d) A is false, but R is true.
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:
1. Starch forms an intense blue adsorption complex with iodine, so it indicates the end point. The assertion is true.
2. Starch is a polysaccharide, so the reason is true.
3. Being a polysaccharide is not why it indicates iodine, so it is not the explanation.

Question 14:
Assertion (A): \( \ce{K2Cr2O7} \) is used as a primary standard in volumetric analysis.
Reason (R): It has a good solubility in water.
(a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true, but R is false.
(d) A is false, but R is true.
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) A is true, but R is false.

Explanation:
1. Potassium dichromate is pure, stable and not hygroscopic, so its standard solution can be prepared directly. The assertion is true.
2. These properties, not high solubility, make it a primary standard, so the reason is false.

Question 15:
Assertion (A): \( \ce{Sb2S3} \) is not soluble in yellow ammonium sulphide.
Reason (R): The common ion effect due to \( \ce{S^2-} \) ions reduces the solubility of \( \ce{Sb2S3} \).
(a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true, but R is false.
(d) A is false, but R is true.
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (d) A is false, but R is true.

Explanation:
1. Antimony sulphide dissolves in yellow ammonium sulphide forming ammonium thioantimonate: \( \ce{Sb2S3 + 3(NH4)2S + 2S -> 2(NH4)3SbS4} \).
2. So the assertion is false and the reason is also false.

Question 16:
Assertion (A): \( \ce{Fe^3+} \) can be used for coagulation of \( \ce{As2S3} \) sol.
Reason (R): \( \ce{Fe^3+} \) reacts with \( \ce{As2S3} \) to give \( \ce{Fe2S3} \).
(a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true, but R is false.
(d) A is false, but R is true.
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) A is true, but R is false.

Explanation:
1. The \( \ce{As2S3} \) sol is negatively charged by adsorbed \( \ce{S^2-} \) ions, and \( \ce{Fe^3+} \) carries a high positive charge that neutralises it and coagulates the sol. The assertion is true.
2. The coagulation is by charge neutralisation, not by formation of \( \ce{Fe2S3} \), so the reason is false.

Question 17:
Assertion (A): Change in colour of acidic solution of potassium dichromate by breath is used to test drunk drivers.
Reason (R): Change in colour is due to the complexation of alcohol with potassium dichromate.
(a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true, but R is false.
(d) A is false, but R is true.
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (c) A is true, but R is false.

Explanation:
1. Alcohol vapour reduces orange dichromate to green chromium(III): \( \ce{K2Cr2O7 + 4H2SO4 -> K2SO4 + Cr2(SO4)3 + 4H2O + 3[O]} \) and \( \ce{C2H5OH + [O] -> CH3COOH} \).
2. So the assertion is true. The colour change is due to oxidation of alcohol, not complexation, so the reason is false.

Question 18:
Assertion (A): \( \ce{Cu^2+} \) and \( \ce{Cd^2+} \) are separated from each other by first adding KCN solution and then passing \( \ce{H2S} \) gas.
Reason (R): KCN reduces \( \ce{Cu^2+} \) to \( \ce{Cu+} \) and forms a complex with it.
(a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
(c) A is true, but R is false.
(d) A is false, but R is true.
Show Answer & Explanation

Answer: (a) Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.

Explanation:
1. Cyanide reduces Cu(II) to Cu(I) and forms the very stable complex \( \ce{[Cu(CN)4]^3-} \) which does not give enough \( \ce{Cu+} \) to precipitate as sulphide.
2. Cadmium forms the less stable \( \ce{[Cd(CN)4]^2-} \), which is decomposed by \( \ce{H2S} \) giving yellow CdS.
3. Both statements are true and the masking of copper by reduction and complexation explains the separation.
