33. According to the given equation
First case: Separation between the trucks decreases at the rate of 10 m/s. Due to the opposite relative
motion of trucks towards each other-
V1  V2  10(condition given)....(i )
Second case: Separation between the trucks increased due to the opposite relative motion of trucks
away from each other-

35. For the given condition, initial height h = d and velocity of the ball is zero. When the ball moves
downward its velocity increases and it will be maximum when the ball hits the ground: just after the
collision, it becomes half and in opposite direction. As the ball moves upward, its velocity again
decreases and becomes zero at height d/2. This explanation match with graph (1)

value of n has the lower energy.

63. Sol: (1) Both A and R are correct; R is the correct explanation of A
64. Sol: Statement (d) is correct, while the statements (a), (b) and (c) are incorrect.
Corrected form are as follows :
(a) Electrons in 2s and 2p-orbitals have different screening effect.
Hence, their Zeff is different.
Zeff of 2s-orbital > Zeff of 2p-orbital
Thus, it is not correct.
(b) Energy of 2s-orbital < energy of 2p-orbital Thus, it is not correct.
(c) Zeff of 1s-orbital  Zeff of 2s-orbital
Thus, it is incorrect.
65. Sol: (2)

Thus, Fe3 and Mn2  have the same electronic configuration.

66. Sol: (1) With the exception of lithium and beryllium compounds of s-block elements are predominantly
ionic.
67. Sol: (4) Down the group metallic character increases, while in period from left to right metallic
character decreases, but non-metallic character increases.
So, the correct order is
Na  Mg  Be  Si  P
Alkali metals have more metallic character than other groups.
68. Sol: (1) Internuclear distance between Cu-atoms in solid copper = 2556 pm
1 1
Metallic radius =  length between two atoms =  256  128 pm

69. Sol: (2) Atomic radius generally decreases as we compare elements in a period from left to right,
C  O  F
but elements present in next period are larger in size,
 Br  Cl  C  O  F ;

So, the correct increasing order of the atomic radii C < B < A < D < E
70. Sol: Ionisation energy increases along a period from left to right and decreases down a group. The
position of given elements in the periodic table is as,

Thus, the order of increasing H IE1 is Ba < Ca < Se < S < Ar

71. Sol: (3) Electron gain enthalpy ( eg H ) is the enthalpy change for converting 1 mol of isolated atoms
to anions by adding electrons. All halogens have negative eg H (exothermic) values. Generally,
eg H becomes less negative when comparing elements of the same group from top to bottom.
But among fluorine and chlorine there is an anomaly because inter-electron repulsion is stronger in
fluorine due to its extra small size.
eg H is less exothermic than expected for F-atom.
Thus, the correct values of electron gain enthalpies

72. Sol: (2) The maximum chemical reactivity at the extreme left (among alkali metals) is exhibited by the
loss of an electron leading to the formation of a cation and at the extreme right (among halogens)
shown by the gain of an electron forming an anion.
Thus, statement (2) is correct.
73. Sol: (1) Mendeleev’s used atomic weight as the basis of classification of elements in the periodic table.
He arranged 63 elements known at that time in the periodic table on the basis of the order of their
increasing atomic weights and he placed elements with similar nature in same group.

74. Sol: (1) Follow the following steps to solve out the order of first ionisation enthalpies is as follows :

75. Sol: (1) Lewis dot structure (I) of CO, is wrong. It may be correctly represented as :

76. Sol: (4) According to Lewis and Kossel approach, CO2 molecule has complete octet of central atom.
LiCl , BeH 2 and BCl3 are the molecules with incomplete octet of central atom. Lewis structure of CO2
can be represented as :

77. Sol: (4) ClO3 , and SO32  ions are isoelectronic and isostructural.
Structural formula of given options is as follows :

Number of electrons

Hence, ClO3 , and SO32  are isoelectronic as both have same number of electrons and are isostructural
as both are pyramidal in shape.

78. Sol: (4) Structure of AB2 E , AB2 E2 and AB3 E2 type molecules are as follows:

Clearly from the above structures, AB2 E2 and AB2E has bent structure while AB3 E2 has T-shaped.
79. Sol: (3) Noble gases are high IE1 values.
80. Sol: (2) Option 2 does not represent positive overlap.
It is an out of phase overlap.

Thus, it shows negative overlap.

81. Sol: (2) XeO4 contain equal number of  and  -bonds.
Number of  and  -bonds present in species are as follows :

82. Sol: (3) The sp-hybridisation is also called diagonal hybridisation because it possess linear geometry.
83. Sol: (3) CH 2  CH 2
84. Sol: (2) Statement (2) is incorrect. It’s correct form is as follows :
The lowest energy structure is the one with the smallest formal charges on the atoms.
The formal charge is a factor based on pure covalent view of bonding in which electron pairs are shared
equally by neighbouring atoms.
Rest other statements are correct.
85. Sol: (1)

Thus, H 2 S is oxidised and Cl2 is reduced

86. (1)

In C3O2 , two C-atoms linked with oxygen atoms are present in +2oxidation state and central carbon
has zero oxidation state.
So, the average oxidation state of carbon is
2  0  2 4
 

87. Sol: (1) By using Stock-notation, the given compounds can be represented as,
FeO  Fe( II )O
Fe2O3  Fe2  III  O3
CuO  Cu  II  O
MnO2  Mn  IV  O2
where, II, III, II, IV represent oxidation states of metals, Fe  in FeO  , Fe  in Fe2O3  , Cu  inCuO  and
Mn  in MnO2  respectively.
88. Sol: (3) Cadmium and tin being less reactive do not react with steam.
89. Sol: (2)

90. Sol: (2) More negative is the value of standard reduction potential, higher is the reduction power.

i.e., Reducing power 
s tan dard reduction potential
Thus, the correct decreasing order of reducing power of the metal is :
