32.
In an octahedral structure, the pair of $$d$$ orbitals involved in $${d^2}s{p^3}$$ hybridization is
A
$${d_{{x^2} - {y^2},}}{d_{{z^2}}}$$
B
$${d_{xz,}}{d_{{x^2} - {y^2}}}$$
C
$${d_{{z^2},}}{d_{xz}}$$
D
$${d_{xy,}}{d_{yz}}$$
Answer :
$${d_{{x^2} - {y^2},}}{d_{{z^2}}}$$
Only those $$d$$ orbitals whose lobes are directed along $$X, Y$$ and $$Z$$ directions hybridise with $$s$$ and $$p$$ orbitals. In other three, $$d$$ orbitals namely $${d_{xy}},{d_{yz}}$$ and $${d_{xz}},$$ the lobes are at an angle of $${45^ \circ }$$ from both axis, hence the extent of their overlap with $$s$$ and $$p$$ orbitals is much lesser than $${d_{{x^2} - {y^2}}}$$ and $${d_{{z^2}}}$$ orbitals.
33.
How many $$sigma$$ and $$pi$$ bonds are present in toluene?
A
$$10\,\sigma $$ and $${\text{3}}\,\pi $$ bonds
B
$$12\,\sigma $$ and $${\text{3}}\,\pi $$ bonds
C
$$15\,\sigma $$ and $${\text{3}}\,\pi $$ bonds
D
$$6\,\sigma $$ and $${\text{3}}\,\pi $$ bonds
Answer :
$$15\,\sigma $$ and $${\text{3}}\,\pi $$ bonds
Toluene is $${C_6}{H_5}C{H_3}.$$
No. of $$\sigma $$ bonds is 15.
No. of $$\pi $$ bonds is 3.
34.
In the reaction $$2PC{l_5} \rightleftharpoons PCl_4^ + + PCl_6^ - ,$$ the change in hybridisation is from
A
$$s{p^3}d\,{\text{to}}\,s{p^3}\,{\text{and}}\,{\text{s}}{p^3}{d^2}$$
B
$$s{p^3}d\,{\text{to}}\,s{p^2}\,{\text{and}}\,{\text{s}}{p^3}$$
C
$$s{p^3}d\,{\text{to}}\,s{p^3}{d^2}\,{\text{and}}\,{\text{s}}{p^3}{d^3}$$
D
$$s{p^3}{d^2}\,{\text{to}}\,s{p^3}\,{\text{and}}\,{\text{s}}{p^3}d$$
35.
In which of the following pairs of molecules/ions, both the species are not likely to exist?
A
$$H_2^ + ,He_{2\,\,\,\,}^{2 - }$$
B
$$H_2^ - ,He_2^{2 - }\,$$
C
$$H_2^{2 + },H{e_2}$$
D
$$H_2^ - ,He_2^{2 + }$$
Answer :
$$H_2^{2 + },H{e_2}$$
$$\,H_2^{2 + } = \sigma 1{s^0}{\sigma ^*}1{s^0}$$
bond order for $$H_2^{2 + } = \frac{1}{2}\left( {0 - 0} \right) = 0\,\,\,$$
$$H{e_2} = \sigma 1{s^2}{\sigma ^*}1{s^2}$$
bond order for $$H{e_2} = \frac{1}{2}\left( {2 - 2} \right) = 0$$
so both $$H_2^{2 + }$$ and $$H{e_2}$$ does not exist
36.
Element $$X$$ is strongly electropositive and element $$Y$$ is strongly electronegative. Both are univalent. The compound formed would be
A
$${X^ + }{Y^ - }$$
B
$${X^ - }{Y^{ + \,}}$$
C
$$X - Y$$
D
$$X \to Y$$
Answer :
$${X^ + }{Y^ - }$$
$${X^ + }{Y^ - }$$
$$\because $$ Electropositive elements forms cation and electronegative elements forms anion.
Except this all compounds are ionic.
37.
The correct sequence of bond length in single bond, double bond and triple bond of $$C$$ is
38.
Which of the following is the most stable state when two atoms come closer to each other to form a molecule?
A
(i), when the bond is formed, the energy is minimum.
B
(ii), when the atoms touch each other, the energy is zero.
C
(iii), when the atoms are isolated, the energy is minimum.
D
(ii), when the attractive forces are more than repulsive forces.
Answer :
(i), when the bond is formed, the energy is minimum.
Energy is minimum when a bond is formed.
39.
In $$X - H - - - Y,X$$ and $$Y$$ both are electronegative elements, then
A
electron density on $$X$$ will increase and on $$H$$ will decrease
B
in both electron density will increase
C
in both electron density will decrease
D
on $$X$$ electron density will decrease and on
$$H$$ increase
Answer :
electron density on $$X$$ will increase and on $$H$$ will decrease
In $$X - H - - - Y,X$$ and $$Y$$ both are
electronegative elements, then electron density on $$X$$ will increase and on $$H$$ will decrease.
40.
Which of the following is not isostructural with $$SiC{l_4}?$$
A
$$SC{l_4}$$
B
$$SO_4^{2 - }$$
C
$$PO_4^{3 - }$$
D
$$NH_4^ + $$
Answer :
$$SC{l_4}$$
$$SC{l_4}$$ is not isostructural with $$SiC{l_4}$$ because it shows square planar structure due to involvement of
repulsion between lone pair and bond pair of electrons.
$$SO_4^{2 - }$$ shows tetrahedral structure due to $$s{p^3}$$ hybridisation.
$$PO_4^{3 - }$$ shows tetrahedral structure due to $$s{p^3}$$ hybridisation.
$$NH_4^ + $$ shows tetrahedral structure due to $$s{p^3}$$ hybridisation.
