Gold number of a lyophilic sol is such a property that :
A
The larger its value, the greater is the peptizing power.
B
The lower its value, the greater is the peptizing power.
C
The lower its value, the greater is the protecting power.
D
The larger its value, the greater is the protecting power.
Answer :
The lower its value, the greater is the protecting power.
The reciprocal of gold number is directly proportional to the protecting power.

For the adsorption of solution on a solid surface, $$\frac{x}{m} = k{C^{\frac{1}{n}}},$$ Adsorption isotherm of $$\log \left( {\frac{x}{m}} \right)$$ and $$\log C$$ was found of the type. This is when
103.
If $$x$$ is amount of adsorbate and $$m$$ is amount of adsorbent, which of the following relations is not related to adsorption process?
A
$$\frac{x}{m} = f\left( T \right)\,{\text{at constant}}\,p$$
B
$$p = f\left( T \right){\text{at constant}}\left( {\frac{x}{m}} \right)$$
C
$$\frac{x}{m} = p \times T$$
D
$$\frac{x}{m} = f\left( p \right){\text{at constant}}\,T$$
Answer :
$$\frac{x}{m} = p \times T$$
$$\frac{x}{m} = p \times T$$ is the incorrect relation. The correct relation is amount of adsorption $$\frac{x}{m} \propto \frac{p}{T}.$$

The activity of an enzyme becomes ineffective
A
at low temperature
B
at atmospheric pressure
C
at high temperature
D
in aqueous medium
Answer :
at high temperature
Enzymes are effective only at optimum temperature. They become ineffective at very high temperature.
106.
Which of the following is not correct regarding the adsorption of a gas on the surface of solid?
A
On increasing pressure, adsorption keeps on increasing.
B
Enthalpy and entropy changes are negative.
C
Chemisorption is more specific than physisorption.
D
It is a reversible reaction.
Answer :
On increasing pressure, adsorption keeps on increasing.
Adsorption does not keep increasing continuously with increase in pressure.

Colloidal solutions of metals like gold can be prepared when their salt solutions react with certain substances like $$SnC{l_2},$$ ,formaldehyde, phenyl hydrazine, etc.
$$2AuC{l_3} + 3SnC{l_2} \to 3SnC{l_4} + \mathop {2Au}\limits_{{\text{Sol}}} $$
The above method is an example of
A
reduction method
B
oxidation method
C
hydrolysis method
D
double decomposition method
Answer :
reduction method
Salt solution of gold is being reduced to gold by using a reducing agent like $$SnC{l_2}.$$

Shape-selective catalysis is a reaction catalysed by
A
zeolites
B
enzymes
C
platinum
D
Ziegler-Natta catalyst
Answer :
zeolites
Zeolite is a most widely studied shape-selective catalyst. Shape-selectivity of zeolite depends upon pore structure of the catalyst, pore size generally varies between 260 $$pm$$ to 740 $$pm.$$ Such catalysts are highly specific because molecules of only a particular size and shape enter these pores and get adsorbed.
