(b) NaCl (ii) 670.8 nm
(c) RbCl (iii) 780.0 nm
(d) CsCl (iv) 589.2 nm

B (a)-(iv), (b)-(ii), (c)-(iii), (d)-(i)
C (a)-(i), (b)-(iv), (c)-(ii), (d)-(iii)
D (a)-(ii), (b)-(iv), (c)-(iii), (d)-(i)
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

.tg .tg Alkali metal Colour (Flame) λ\lambda (nm) Li Crimson red 670.8 Na Yellow 589.2 Rb Red, violet 780.0 Cs Blue 455.5 Alkali metals have very low value of ionisation energy as compared to other metals.

So, alkali metals easily get excited and impart colour to flame.

Hence, Rb is most excited and having high value of wavelength in all alkali metals.

Q224
Which one of the following order represents the correct sequence of the increasing basic nature of the given oxides ?
A MgO < K2O < Al2O3 < Na2O
B Al2O3 < MgO < Na2O < K2O
C Na2O < K2O < MgO < Al2O3
D K2O < Na2O < Al2O3 < MgO
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

You should know that, (1)

\,\,\,

In a period, from left to right the acidic strength increases that mean basic nature decreases. (2)

\,\,\,

In a group, from top to bottom the basic nature increases that means acidic nature decreases.

Na, Mg, Al and K are present in periodic table like this : - .tg .tg Group 1 Group 2 Group 13 Period 3 Na Mg .....

Al Period 4 K So, you can see Na, Mg and Al are present in same period so the order of basic nature among Na, Mg and Al is Na > Mg > Al.

And Na and K are from same group so basic nature of K > Na.

So the correct order of oxides Al2O3 < MgO < Na2O < K2O

Solution

.tg .tg List-I List-II (a) Sodium hydride (ii) Saline hydride (b) Silane (iii) Molecular hydride (c) Vanadium hydride (iv) Non-stoichiometric hydride (d) Aluminium hydride (i) Lewis acid

Q226
The size of the iso-electronic species Cl–, Ar and Ca2+ is affected by :
A electron-electron interaction in the outer orbitals
B Principal quantum number of valence shell
C nuclear charge
D azimuthal quantum number of valence shell
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Cl- Ar Ca+2 Protons 17 18 20 Electrons 18 18 18 Nuclear charge means number of protons present in the nucleus.

Here maximum number of protons present in the Ca+2 ion, so the attraction towards those 18 electrons wll be most by the nucleus of the Ca+2 ion.

That is why size of the Ca+2 ion wll be least because of highest nuclear charge.

Q227
Lithium nitrate and sodium nitrate, when heated separately, respectively, give :
A LiNO2\mathrm{LiNO}_{2} and NaNO2\mathrm{NaNO}_{2}
B Li2O\mathrm{Li}_{2} \mathrm{O} and Na2O\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{O}
C Li2O\mathrm{Li}_{2} \mathrm{O} and NaNO2\mathrm{NaNO}_{2}
D LiNO2\mathrm{LiNO}_{2} and Na2O\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{O}
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
Li2O,NaNO2\mathrm{Li}_{2} \mathrm{O}, \mathrm{NaNO}_{2}

As per NCERT lithium nitrate when heated gives lithium oxide,

Li2O\mathrm{Li}_{2} \mathrm{O}

. Whereas other alkali metal nitrates decompose to give the corresponding nitrite.

4LiNO32Li2O+4NO2+O24 \mathrm{LiNO}_{3} \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{Li}_{2} \mathrm{O}+4 \mathrm{NO}_{2}+\mathrm{O}_{2}
2NaNO32NaNO2+O22 \mathrm{NaNO}_{3} \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{NaNO}_{2}+\mathrm{O}_{2}

However, the decomposition product of

NaNO3\mathrm{NaNO}_{3}

is temperature dependent process as shown in the below reaction.

NaNO3Δ500CNaNO2( s)+12O2( g)\mathrm{NaNO}_{3} \underset{500^{\circ} \mathrm{C}}{\stackrel{\Delta}{\longrightarrow}} \mathrm{NaNO}_{2}(\mathrm{~s})+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{O}_{2}(\mathrm{~g})
Δ,800C\Delta \downarrow, 800^{\circ} \mathrm{C}
Na2O(s)+N2( g)+O2( g)\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{O}(\mathrm{s})+\mathrm{N}_{2}(\mathrm{~g})+\mathrm{O}_{2}(\mathrm{~g})

As the temperature is not mentioned, we can go by the answer. (C)

Q228
The set representing the correct order of ionic radius is :
A Na+>Li+>Mg2+>Be2+N{a^ + } > L{i^ + } > M{g^{2 + }} > B{e^{2 + }}
B Li+>Na+>Mg2+>Be2+L{i^ + } > N{a^ + } > M{g^{2 + }} > B{e^{2 + }}
C Mg2+>Be2+>Li+>Na+M{g^{2 + }} > B{e^{2 + }} > L{i^ + } > N{a^ + }
D Li+>Be2+>Na+>Mg2+L{i^ + } > B{e^{2 + }} > N{a^ + } > M{g^{2 + }}
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

In periodic table

Li,Na,Mg,BeLi, Na, Mg, Be

are present in following ways :- .tg .tg Group 1 Group 2 Li Be Na Mg Note :

(1)(1)\,\,\,

In periodic table from left to right the size of element decreases.

(2)(2)\,\,\,

In periodic table, from top to bottom size of element increases. So,

Be+2B{e^{ + 2}}

will be the smallest in size. Among

Li+L{i^ + }

and

Na+,N{a^ + },

size of

Na+>Li+N{a^ + } > L{i^ + }

and among

Be+2B{e^{ + 2}}

and

Mg+2,M{g^{ + 2}},

size of

Mg+2>Be+2M{g^{ + 2}} > B{e^{ + 2}}

. Note : Size of

Li+>Mg+2,L{i^ + } > M{g^{ + 2}},

this is a exception case. So, the correct order will be,

Na+>Li+>Mg+2>Be+2N{a^ + } > L{i^ + } > M{g^{ + 2}} > B{e^{ + 2}}
