Question
Read the passage given below and answer the following questions: Boiling point or freezing point of liquid solution would be affected by the dissolved solids in the liquid phase. A soluble solid in solution has the effect of raising its boiling point and depressing its freezing point. The addition of non-volatile substances to a solvent decreases the vapor pressure and the added solute particles affect the formation of pure solvent crystals. According to many researches the decrease in freezing point directly correlated to the concentration of solutes dissolved in the solvent. This phenomenon is expressed as freezing point depression and it is useful for several applications such as freeze concentration of liquid food and to find the molar mass of an unknown solute in the solution. Freeze concentration is a high quality liquid food concentration method where water is removed by forming ice crystals. This is done by cooling the liquid food below the freezing point of the solution. The freezing point depression is referred as a colligative property and it is proportional to the molar concentration of the solution (m), along with vapor pressure lowering, boiling point elevation, and osmotic pressure. These are physical characteristics of solutions that depend only on the identity of the solvent and the concentration of the solute. The characters are not depending on the solute’s identity.
  1. When a non volatile solid is added to pure water it will:
  1. boil above 100°C and freeze above 0°C
  2. boil below 100°C and freeze above 0°C
  3. boil above 100°C and freeze below 0°C
  4. boil below 100°C and freeze below 0°C
  1. Colligative properties are:
  1. dependent only on the concentration of the solute and independent of the solvent’s and solute’s identity.
  2. dependent only on the identity of the solute and the concentration of the solute and independent of the solvent's identity.
  3. dependent on the identity of the solvent and solute and thus on the concentration of the solute.
  4. dependent only on the identity of the solvent and the concentration of the solute and independent of the solute’s identity.
  1. Assume three samples of juices A, B and C have glucose as the only sugar present in them. The concentration of sample A, B and C are 0.1M, 5M and 0.2 M respectively. Freezing point will be highest for the fruit juice:

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:

Amines are basic in nature. The basic strength of amines can be expressed by their dissociation constant, Kb or pKb.

$\text{RNH}_2+\text{H}_2\text{O}\rightleftharpoons\text{RNH}^+_3+\text{OH}^-$

$\text{k}_\text{b}=\frac{[\text{RNH}^+_3][\text{OH}^-]}{[\text{RNH}_2]}\text{and}\text{ pk}_\text{b}=-\log\text{k}_\text{b}$

Greater the Kb value or smaller the pKb value, more is the basic strength of a mine. Aryl amines such as aniline are less basic than aliphatic amines due to the involvement of lone pair of electrons on N-atom with the resonance in benzene. In derivatives of aniline, the electron releasing groups increase the basic strength while electron withdrawing groups decrease the basic strength. The base weakening effect of electron withdrawing group and base strengthening effect of electron releasing group is more marked at p-position than at m-position. a-Substituted aniline is less basic than aniline due to ortho effect and is probable due to combination of electronic and steric effect.

The following questions are multiple choice questions. Choose the most appropriate answer:

  1. The strongest base among the following is:

  3. Ethylamine has higher boiling point than propane.

  1. CH3CH2NH2 contains a basic -NH2 group, but CH3CONH2 does not because:
  1. Acetamide is amphoteric in character.
  2. In ethylamine the electron pair on N-atom is delocalised by resonance.
  3. In ethylamine there is no resonance while in acetamide the lone pair of electrons on N-atom is delocalised and is less available for protonation.
  4. None of these.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:

Glucose is known as dextrose because it occurs in nature as the optically active dextrorotatory isomer. lt is essential constituent of human blood. The blood normally contains 65 to 110mg of glucose per 100mL (hence named Blood sugar). The level may be much higher in diabetic persons. The urine of diabetic persons also contain considerable amount of glucose. ln combined form, it occurs in cane sugar and polysaccharides such as starch and cellulose.

Glucose has an aldehyde group (-CHO), one primary alcoholic group (-CH2OH) and four secondary alcoholic groups (-CHOH) in their structure. Due to the presence five hydroxyl groups (-OH). glucose undergoes acetylation. Glucose also undergoes oxidation with mild oxidising agents like bromine water as well as with strong oxidising agents like nitric acid. Since glucose is readily oxidised, it acts as a strong reducing agent and reduces Tollen's reagent and Fehling solution. Glucose exists in two crystalline forms: $\alpha$-D-glucose and $\beta$-D-glucose. If either of the two forms is dissolved in water and allowed to stand, the specific rotation of the solution changes gradually, until a constant value is obtained. This change is called mutarotation.

  2. Assertion and reason both are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation for assertion.

Reason: The formation of pentaacetyl derivative confirms the presence of five -OH groups in glucose.

  1. Assertion: A certain compound gives negative test with ninhydrin and positive test with Benedict's solution, the compound is an amino acid.

Reason: Glucose is a monosaccharide.

  1. Assertion: The rapid interconversion of $\alpha$-D-glucose and $\beta$-D-glucose in solution is known as racemisation.

Reason: Hydrolysis reaction will take place when a mineral acid is treated with sugar.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:

For understanding the structure and bonding in transition metal complexes, the magnetic properties are very helpful. Low spin complexes are generally diamagnetic because of pairing of electrons, whereas high spin complexes are usually paramagnetic because of presence of unpaired electrons. Larger the number of unpaired electrons, stronger will be the paramagnetism. However magnetic behaviour of a complex can be confirmed from magnetic moment measurement. Magnetic moment $\mu=\sqrt{\text{n(n+2)}}\text{B.M.}$ where n = number of unpaired electrons. Greater the number of unpaired electrons, more will be the magnetic moment.

Proteins are high molecular mass complex biomolecules of amino acids. The important proteins required for our body are enzymes, hormones, antibodies, transport proteins, structural proteins, contractile proteins etc. Except for glycine, all $\alpha$-amino acids have chiral carbon atom and most of them have L-configuration. The amino acids exists as dipolar ion called zwitter ion, in which a proton goes from the carboxyl group to the amino group. A large number of $\alpha$-amino acids are joined by peptide bonds forming polypeptides. The peptides having very large molecular mass (more than 10,000) are called proteins. The structure of proteins is described as primary structure giving sequence of linking of amino acids; secondary structure giving manner in which polypeptide chains are arranged and folded; tertiary structure giving folding, coiling or bonding polypeptide chains producing three dimensional structures and quaternary structure giving arrangement of sub-units in an aggregate protein molecule.
