Two types of conductors are generally used, metallic and electrolytic. Free electrons are the current carrier in metallic and in electrolytic conductors, free ions. Specific conductance or conductivity of an electrolytic solution is given by
$\text{K}=\text{C}\times\frac{\text{l}}{\text{A}}$
where, $\text{C}\times\frac{1}{\text{R}}$ and $\frac{\text{l}}{\text{A}}=\text{G}^\star$ (cell constant)
Molar conductance $(\wedge_\text{m})$ and equivalent conductance $(\wedge_\text{e})$ of an electrolyte solution are calculated as
$\wedge_\text{m}=\frac{\text{K}\times1000}{\text{M}}$ or $\wedge_\text{e}=\frac{\text{K}\times1000}{\text{N}}$
where, M = molarity of solution and N is normality of solution. Molar conductance of strong electrolyte depends on the concentration.
$\wedge_\text{m}=\wedge^\circ_{\text{m}^-}\text{b}\sqrt{\text{C}}$
$\wedge^\circ_\text{m}=$ molar conductance at infinite dilution, b = constant, C = cone.of solution

For a first order reaction, A → Products, $\text{k}=\frac{2.303}{\text{t}}\log\frac{\text{a}}{\text{a}-\text{x}},$ where a is the initial concentration of A and (a - x) is the concentration of A after time t. k is rate constant. Its value is constant at constant temperature for a reaction. The time in which half of the reactant is consumed is called half-life period. Half-life period of a first order reaction is constant. Its value is independent of initial concentration or any other external conditions.In these questions (Q. No. i-iv), a statement of assertion followed by a statement ofreason is given.

The potential of each electrode is known as electrode potential. Standard electrode potential is the potential when concentration of each species taking part in electrode reaction is unity and the reaction is taking place at 298K. By convention, the standard electrode potential of hydrogen (SHE) is $0.0V.$ The electrode potential value for each electrode process is a measure of relative tendency of the active species in the process to remain in the oxidised/ reduced form. The negative electrode potential means that the redox couple is stronger reducing agent than $\frac{\text{H}^+}{\text{H}_2}$ couple. A positive electrode potential means that the redox couple is a weaker reducing agent than the $\frac{\text{H}^+}{\text{H}_2}$ couple. Metals which have higher positive value of standard reduction potential form the oxides of greater thermal stability.

Nucleophilic substitution reactions are of two types; substitution nucleophilic bimolecular $(S_N2)$ and substitution nucleophilic unimolecular $(S_N1)$ depending on molecules taking part in determining the rate of reaction. Reactivity of alkyl halide towards $S_N1$ and $S_N2$ reactions depends on various factors such as steric hindrance, stability of intermediate or transition state, and polarity of solvent. $S_N2$ reaction mechanism is favoured mostly by primary alkyl halide then secondary and then tertiary.

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions:
Haloarenes are less reactive than haloalkanes. The low reactivity of haloarenes can be attributed to:
  • Resonance effect.
  • $sp^2$ hybridisation of C - X bond.
  • Polarity of C - X bond
  • Instability of phenyl cation (formed by self-ionisation of haloarene).
  • Repulsion between the electron rich attacking nucleophiles and electron rich arenes.
Reactivity of haloarenes can be increased or decreased by the presence of certain groups at certain positions for example, nitro ($-NO_{^2}$) group at o/ p positions increases the reactivity of haloarenes towards nucleophilc substitution reactions.
