201.
The structure and hybridisation of $$Si{\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_4}$$ is
A
octahedral, $$s{p^3}d$$
B
tetrahedral, $$s{p^3}$$
C
bent, $$sp$$
D
trigonal, $$s{p^2}$$
Answer :
tetrahedral, $$s{p^3}$$
In tetramethyl silicane, i.e. $$Si{\left( {C{H_3}} \right)_4},\,Si$$ is $$s{p^3}$$ hybridised. Hence it has tetrahedral structure.
202.
$$B{F_3}$$ is used as a catalyst in various organic reactions because
A
it is a strong reducing agent
B
it is a highly reactive compound
C
it is a weak Lewis acid
D
it is a strong Lewis acid
Answer :
it is a strong Lewis acid
No explanation is given for this question. Let's discuss the answer together.
203.
Each of the following is true for white and red phosphorus except that they
A
are both soluble in $$C{S_2}$$
B
can be oxidized by heating in air
C
consist of the same kind of atoms
D
can be converted into one another
Answer :
are both soluble in $$C{S_2}$$
White phosphorus is soluble in $$C{S_2}$$ whereas red phosphorus is insoluble in $$C{S_2}.$$
204.
Which of the following properties of $${{H_2}S{O_4}}$$ in respective reaction is wrong?
A \[\xrightarrow{{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}}CO+C{{O}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}O;\] \[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\] acts as dehydrating agent.
B
$$Cu + 2{H_2}S{O_4} \to CuS{O_4} + 2{H_2}O + S{O_2};$$ $${{H_2}S{O_4}}$$ acts as oxidising agent.
C
$$N{a_2}S + {H_2}S{O_4} \to N{a_2}S{O_4} + {H_2}S;$$ $${{H_2}S{O_4}}$$ acts as an acid.
D
$$2HBr + {H_2}S{O_4} \to 2{H_2}O + S{O_2} + B{r_2};$$ $${{H_2}S{O_4}}$$ acts as reducing agent.
209.
Which one of the following substances has the highest proton affinity ?
A
$${H_2}S$$
B
$$N{H_3}$$
C
$$P{H_3}$$
D
$${H_2}O$$
Answer :
$$N{H_3}$$
Among the given compounds, the $$\ddot N{H_3}$$ is most basic. Hence has highest proton affinity
210.
A solid element ( symbol $$Y$$ ) conducts electricity and forms two chlorides $$YC{l_n}$$ ( colourless volatile liquid ) and $$YC{l_{n - 2}}$$ ( a colourless solid ). To which one of the following groups of the periodic table does $$Y$$ belong ?
A
13
B
14
C
15
D
16
Answer :
14
$$SnC{l_4}$$ is colourless volatile liquid and $$SnC{l_2}$$ is colourless solid $$Sn$$ conducts electricity and it belongs to 14 group.
