SECTION B
This section contains 5 questions with internal choice in one question. The following
questions are very short answer type and carry 2 marks each. (05×02=10 Marks)

17. Calculate the total number of angular and radial nodes present in 3p orbital and azimuthal
number 1.
Ans: for 3p , n= 3 and l= n-1 = 3-1=2, l=0,1,2
for l=1
number of angular nodes = l=1
number of radial nodes = n-l-1 = 1

18.Why are lone pair-lone pair repulsions stronger than lone pair-bond pair repulsion?
Ans-The lone pairs of electrons are localised on the central atom, whereas bond pairs
are shared between two atoms. Consequently, the lone pair of electrons in a molecule
occupy more space as compared to the bond pairs.
Thus, there is greater repulsion between lone pairs of electrons as compared to the lone
pair-bond pair and bond pair-bond pair repulsions.
The effects of these repulsions are deviations from idealised shapes and alterations in
bond angles in molecules.

19. Explain the following factors due to which the ionisation enthalpy of the main group
elements tends to decrease down the group- (i) Atomic size (ii) Screening effect
Ans: (i) On moving down the group , atomic size increases due to the addition of a new
higher energy shell. As a result forces of attraction of the nucleus for valence electrons
decreases and ionisation enthalpy also decreases.
(ii)More the electron shells, greater is the shielding effect experienced by the outermost
electrons. Hence screening or shielding effect increases in a group as shells increase
from top to bottom but in a period it decreases from left to right because of increase in
atomic number and no change in shells.

24. Define Octet rule. Write its significance and limitations.
Ans- Octet rule: Atoms of elements combine with each other in order to complete their
respective octets so as to acquire the stable gas configuration.
Significance: It helps to explain why different atoms combine with each other to form
ionic compounds or covalent compounds.
Limitations of Octet rule:
1) According to Octet rule, atoms take part in chemical combination to achieve the
configuration of nearest noble gas elements. However, some of noble gas elements
like Xenon have formed compounds with fluorine and oxygen. For example:
XeF2, XeF4 etc.
Therefore, validity of the octet rule has been challenged.
2) This theory does not account for shape of molecules.

25. Why does the first ionization enthalpy increase as we go from left to right across a given
period of the periodic table?
Ans: The value of ionization enthalpy increases with the increase in atomic number
across the period. this is due to the fact that in moving across the period from left to
right-
1) nuclear charge increases regularly by one unit.
2) the progressive addition of electrons occurs at the same level.
3) atomic size decreases.
This is due to the gradual increase in nuclear charge and simultaneous decrease in
atomic size the electrons are more and more tightly bound to the nucleus. this results in
a gradual increase in ionization energy across the period.

26. If two elements can combine to form more than one compound, the masses of one
element that combine with a fixed mass of the other element, are in whole number ratio.
(a) Is this statement true?
(b) If yes, according to which law?
(c) Give one example related to this law
Ans- (a) Yes, the statement is true.
(b) According to the law of multiple proportions.
(c) Hydrogen and oxygen react to produce two compounds, water and hydrogen
peroxide. Masses of oxygen which combine with fixed mass of hydrogen are in simple
ratio.

27. Define atomic number, mass number and neutron. How are the three related to each
other?
Ans: Atomic Number (Z): The atomic number of an element is equal to the number of
protons present inside the nucleus of its atoms.
Atomic number (Z) = Number of protons in the nucleus of an atom = Number of
electrons in the neutral atoms

5
Mass Number (A): The sum of the number of neutrons and protons in the nucleus of an
atom is called its mass number. Mass number is denoted by A. Thus, for an atom, Mass
number (A) = Number of protons (p) + Number of neutrons (n)
A=p+n
Neutron: It is neutral particle. It is present in the nucleus of an atom. The relation
between mass number, Atomic no. and no. of neutrons is given by the equation:

28. Although both CO2 and H2O are triatomic molecules, the shape of H2O molecule is bent
while that of CO2 is linear. Explain this on the basis of the dipole moment.
Answer: In CO2, there are two C=O bonds. Each C=O bond is a polar bond.
The net dipole moment of CO2 molecule is zero. This is possible only if CO2 is a linear
molecule. (O=C=O). The bond dipoles of two C=O bonds cancel the moment of each
other. Whereas, H2O molecule has a net dipole moment (1.84 D). The H2O molecule has
a bent structure because here the O—H bonds are oriented at an angle of 104.5° and do
not cancel the bond moments of each other.

SECTION D
The following questions are case -based questions. Each question has an internal choice
and carries 4 (1+1+2) marks each. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions
29. This theory provides a simple procedure to predict the shapes of covalent molecules.
Based on the repulsive interactions of the electron pairs in the valence shell of the atoms. The
shape of a molecule depends upon the number of valence shell electron pairs (bonded or
non–bonded) around the central atom. Pairs of electrons in the valence shell repel one another
since their electron clouds are negatively charged. These pairs of electrons tend to occupy
such positions in space that minimize repulsion and thus maximize distance between them.
The valence shell is taken as a sphere with the electron pairs localising on the spherical
surface at maximum distance from one another. A multiple bond is treated as if it is a single
electron pair and the two or three electron pairs of a multiple bond are treated as a single
super pair. Where two or more resonance structures can represent a molecule, the VSEPR
model is applicable to any such structure. The repulsive interaction of electron pairs
decreases in the order: lp – lp>lp –bp>bp – bp,lone pairs are localised on the central atom and
each bonded pair is shared between two atoms. As a result, the lone pair electrons in a
molecule occupy more space as compared to the bonding pairs of electrons. This results in
greater repulsion between lone pairs of electrons as compared to the lone pair – bond pair and
bond pair – bond pair repulsions.
(i) What is the percentage of s–character in sp3 and sp2 hybrid orbitals? (1)
(ii)Depict the shape of methane and XeF2 molecules using VSEPR theory? (1)
(iii)Explain the shape of SF6 using VSEPR theory ? (2)
OR
(iii)Explain the shape of ClF3 using VSEPR theory ? (2)
Ans-(i) 33% and 25%
(ii)Tetrahedral and Square planar respectively.
(iii)It is an AB6 type molecule. This molecule has 6 bond pairs of electrons and no lone
pair of electrons. Due to bond pair-bond pair interaction of electrons, SF6 has
octahedral shape.

6
 OR
(iii)The molecular geometry of ClF3 is said to be T-shaped. ClF3 acquires such a shape
because two lone pairs take up equatorial positions as they require more space and
greater repulsions. They are arranged in a trigonal bipyramidal shape with 3 bonds and
2 lone pairs.

30. Isobars are the atoms with the same mass number but different atomic numbers, for
example, 6 146C and 147N. On the other hand, atoms with identical atomic numbers but
different atomic mass numbers are known as Isotopes. For example, considering hydrogen
atoms again, 99.985% of hydrogen atoms contain only one proton. This isotope is called
protium (11H). Rest of the percentage of hydrogen atom contains two other isotopes, the one
containing 1 proton and1 neutron is called deuterium (21D, 0.015%) and the other one
possessing 1 proton and 2 neutrons is called tritium ( 31T ).The studies of interactions of
radiations with matter have provided immense information regarding the structure of atoms
and molecules. Neils Bohr utilized these results to improve upon the model proposed by
Rutherford. Two developments played a major role in the formulation of Bohr’s model of
atom
(i)What is the position of electrons in the Rutherford model of the atom? (1)
(ii) Give two isotopes of Hydrogen? (1)
(iii)An element has average atomic mass 20.426u it has 2 isotopes with masses (2)
22.1824 and 19.9574. Calculate the abundance of its isotopes X−22 and X−20.
OR
(iii) State the difference between isotopes and isobars? (2)
Ans-(i) Rutherford's model proposed that the negatively charged electrons surround the
nucleus of an atom.
(22.1824 ×𝑋)+(19.95)(100−𝑋)
(ii)Protium deuterium and tritium (any two) 20.426= 100
=X(22.1824-19.95)=2042.6-1995
= X ( 2.234) = 47.6
= X= 47.6/2/234 =21.32%
X-22= 21.32%
X-20 = 100-21.32=78.68%
Hence the abundance is 21.32% and 78.68%

However, accuracy is the agreement of a particular value to the true value of the result.
(ii)(a)Celsius to Fahrenheit: °F = (°C x 9/5) + 32
Fahrenheit to Celsius: °C = (°F - 32) x 5/9
(b)10 mg sugar (C12H22O11) = 0.01 g = 0.01/342 mol

(ii) A compound contains 4.07% hydrogen, 24.27 % carbon and 71.65 % chlorine. Its molar
mass is 98.96 g. What are its empirical and molecular formulas?
Ans-(i)An empirical formula represents the simplest whole number ratio of various
atoms present in a compound whereas the molecular formula shows the exact number
of different types of atoms present in a molecule of a compound
(ii)

The empirical formula of the above compound is CH2Cl.

empirical formula mass is 12 + (1x2) + 35.5 = 49.5
n= molecular mass/ empirical formula mass =98.96/49.5 = 2
Hence molecular formula is C2H4Cl2

32.(i) What do you mean by quantization of energy? (1+2+2)
(ii) How many sub-shells are associated with n=4 ? How many electrons will be present in
the subshell having mS= -½ and n=4?

(a) H+ (b) Na+ (c) Ca2+ (d) Mn2+ (e) Al3+
(atomic no. of H=1, Ca=20, Na=11, Mn=25,Al=13 )

Ans- (i) Quantization of energy is the idea that energy can only be gained or lost in
integral multiples of a quantum, or the smallest possible unit of energy. This means that
energy lives in discrete spaces, and that a wave can only have certain energies. This
property leads to electron orbitals.
(ii)There are 4 subshells associated with (n=4): (4s), (4p), (4d), and (4f).
Therefore in n=4, number of subshells=4, orbitals=16 and number of electrons =32.

(a) Threshold frequency (b) Work function.
(ii) The work function for Cs atoms is 1 .9 eV. Find threshold wavelength (λ0)
and threshold frequency (v0) of this light radiation.
Ans-(i) (a)Threshold frequency is the minimum frequency of incident radiation that is
required for photoelectric emission to occur. It is the lowest frequency at which
electrons will be ejected from a metal surface. The threshold frequency is represented
by the Greek letter nu with a subscript zero, ν.
(b)Work function is a property of a material, which is defined as the minimum quantity
of energy which is required to remove an electron to infinity from the surface of a given
solid.
(ii)Given Data:
- Work function for Cs (Φ) = 1.9 eV
- To find: Threshold wavelength (λ₀) and threshold frequency (ν₀).
2. Convert Work Function to Joules:
The work function in joules can be calculated using the conversion factor:
1 eV=1.6×10−19 J
Thus,
Φ=1.9 eV=1.9×1.6×10−19 J =3.04×10−19J

3. Calculate Threshold Frequency (ν₀):

The relationship between energy (E), frequency (ν), and Planck's constant (h) is given
by:
E=h/ν
Rearranging gives: ν₀=Φ/h
Where h=6.626×10−34J s
Substituting the values: ν₀=3.04×10−19J/6.626×10−34 ≈ 4.58×1014Hz
4. Calculate Threshold Wavelength (λ₀):
The relationship between wavelength (λ) and frequency (ν) is given by:
c = ν/λ
Rearranging gives:
λ₀=c/ν₀ Where c=3.00×108m/s
Substituting the values:λ₀=3.00×108 m/s/4.58×1014 Hz ≈ 6.54 ×10−7 m=654 nm

 33.(i) Which out of NH3 and NF3 has higher dipole moment and why? (2+3)
(ii) Using VSEPR theory predict the shape for AB2E2 type of molecule with the help of bond
pairs and lone pairs .
Ans-(i) The dipole moment of NH3 is higher in comparison to NF3, because The F is
more electronegative than N and pulls the electrons . As the number NF bonds is 3 the 3
F atoms pull the electrons. The resulting electronegative forces decrease the dipole
moment. NF3 dipole moment 0.24D.
The NH3 molecule having 3 Hydrogen molecules that form bond with N do not have
electronegativity to over come the pull of N molecule unlike the NF3 which results in
higher dipole moment . NH3 dipole moment 1.24D.

(ii)A common example of an AB2E2 type molecule is water (H2O). In this case, the
oxygen atom is the central atom (A), the two hydrogen atoms are the bonded atoms (B2),
and there are two lone pairs of electrons (E2) on the oxygen atom. This gives the water
molecule a bent or V-shaped geometry.
