Question 1: Answer any six of the following [12]

Question 1.1.i: What is ferromagnetism? [2]

Solution 1: The substances which can be permanently magnetised even in the absence
of a magnetic field are called ferromagnetic substances, and the mechanism is called
ferromagnetism.
Solution 2: Ferromagnetism: The substances that are strongly attracted by a magnetic
field are called ferromagnetic substances. Ferromagnetic substances can be
permanently magnetised even in the absence of a magnetic field. Some examples of
ferromagnetic substances are iron, cobalt, nickel, gadolinium, and CrO2.
In solid state, the metal ions of ferromagnetic substances are grouped together into
small regions called domains and each domain acts as a tiny magnet. In an un-
magnetised piece of a ferromagnetic substance, the domains are randomly-oriented
and so, their magnetic moments get cancelled. However, when the substance is placed
in a magnetic field, all the domains get oriented in the direction of the magnetic field. As
a result, a strong magnetic effect is produced. This ordering of domains persists even
after the removal of the magnetic field. Thus, the ferromagnetic substance becomes a
permanent magnet.

Question 1.1.ii:
Iron (z=26) is highly ferromagnetic. Explain.
Solution: Iron (z = 26), with electronic configuration [Ar] 3d6 4s2, contains four unpaired
electrons. Hence, iron is strongly ferromagnetic.
Question 1.2.i: Define boiling point [2]

becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure.
Question 1.2.ii: Write the formula to determine the molar mass of a solute using

Question 1.3: Write mathematical equation of first law of thermodynamics [2]

Question 1.3.1: Write mathematical equation of first law of thermodynamics for the
following processes : [1]
Adiabatic process.
Solution: The mathematical expression for the first law of thermodynamics is,
ΔU = q + w
When ΔU = change in energy
q = heat absorbed by the system
w = Amount of work done
Adiabatic Process : A process in which heat is not allowed to enter or leave the system
at any stage the process is called adiabatic process.
∴q=0
The mathematical expression for first law of thermodynamics is,
ΔU = q + w
∴ ΔU = + w
Question 1.3.2: Write mathematical equation of first law of thermodynamics for
Isochoric process [1]
Solution:

If the reaction is carried out in a closed container so that the volume of the system is
constant, then ΔV = 0. In such a case, no work is involved.

Equation (1) suggests that the change in internal energy of the system is due to heat
transfer. The subscript v indicates a constant volume process. As U is a state function,
qv is also a state function. We see that an increase in the internal energy of a system is
numerically equal to the heat absorbed by the system in a constant volume (isochoric)
process.

Question 1.7.i: Define enthalpy of sublimation. [2]
Solution: The enthalpy change which accompanies the conversion of one mole of solid
directly into its vapour at constant temperature and pressure is called its enthalpy of
sublimation. It is denoted by ΔsubH.
Question 1.7.ii: How is enthalpy of sublimation related to enthalpy of fusion and
enthalpy of vaporization?
Solution: Relation of enthalpy of sublimation with enthalpy of fusion and enthalpy of
vaporisation:

The enthalpy of sublimation of ice at 00C and 1 atm pressure is 51.08 kJ mol−1.H2O(s)
→ H2O(g), ΔH = 51.08 kJ mol−1 at 00C.
When solid is converted to vapour, either in one step or two steps, the solid first gets
converted to the liquid state and then to the vapour state. The enthalpy change remains
the same. This is because enthalpy is a state function.
For example,
H2O(s) → H2O(l), Δfus H = +6.01 kJ mol−1 at 0°C
H2O(l) → H2O(g), Δvap H = +45.07 kJ mol−1 at 0°C
_____________________________________
H2O(s) → H2O(g), Δ H = 51.08 kJ mol−1 at 0°C
Therefore, it follows that
Δsub H = Δfus H + Δvap H

reduction of oxides. Such diagrams help in predicting the feasibility of a thermal
reduction of an ore. ΔG must be negative at a given temperature for a reaction to be
feasible.
Question 1.8.ii: Write features of Ellingham's diagrams

If C-H, Cl-Cl and H-Cl bond enthalpies are 414, 243 and 431 KJ-Mol-1 respectively.
Solution: CH3Cl(g)+Cl2(g) → CH2Cl2(g)HCl(g)
C—H =414 kJ /mol
Cl—Cl =243 kJ /mol
H—Cl =431 kJ /mol
ΔH° =-104 kJ
ΔH°=∑ΔH° (reactant bond) -∑ΔH° (product bond)
=[3*ΔH°(C-H)+ΔH° (C-Cl)+ΔH° (Cl-Cl)] - [2 H (C H) 2 H (C Cl) H (H Cl)]
=[3*414+ΔH°(C-Cl)+243] - [2*414+2*ΔH° (C-Cl)+431]

Question 3.1.4: Why is molality of a solution independent of temperature? [1]

Solution: Molality:
Molality is amount of solute per mass of solvent. So, the concentration of solvent is
expressed in terms of mass, and the mass of a substance is not affected by the change
in temperature. Hence, molality is independent of temperature.

Question 5.1: Why is Sc3+ colourless while Ti3+ coloured? (Atomic number Sc = 21, Ti
=22) [2]
Solution: Ti3+ is a 3d1 system. The colour is due to d–d transition. There is one d
electron present in the 3d subshell. When light falls on the Ti3+ complex, the t2g electron
is excited to the eg level. This excitation takes place in the greenish yellow region
(≈5000 A°) and the rest is transmitted. The complementary colour is transmitted which
is violet.

Sc3+ is a 3d0 system. There are no d electrons; hence, d–d transition is not possible.
Hence, Sc3+ is colourless.
