Q31
Four gases A, B, C and D have critical temperatures 5.3,33.2,126.05.3,33.2,126.0 and 154.3 K154.3 \mathrm{~K} respectively. For their adsorption on a fixed amount of charcoal, the correct order is:
A D > C > B > A
B C > B > D > A
C D > C > A > B
D C > D > B > A
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

The extent of adsorption of a gas on a solid surface depends on the critical temperature of the gas and the temperature of the solid surface.

The critical temperature is the temperature above which a gas cannot be liquefied, no matter how much pressure is applied.

Therefore, gases with higher critical temperatures are less likely to be adsorbed on a solid surface than gases with lower critical temperatures.

In this case, the gases are A, B, C, and D, with critical temperatures of 5.3 K, 33.2 K, 126.0 K, and 154.3 K, respectively.

Therefore, the correct order of adsorption on a fixed amount of charcoal is: D > C > B > A

Q32
Ferric chloride is applied to stop bleeding because -
A FeCl3\mathrm{FeCl}_{3} reacts with the constituents of blood which is a positively charged sol.
B Blood absorbs FeCl3\mathrm{FeCl}_{3} and forms a complex.
C Cl\mathrm{Cl}^{-} ions cause coagulation of blood.
D Fe3+\mathrm{Fe}^{3+} ions coagulate blood which is a negatively charged sol.
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

The correct answer is Option D: Fe3+ ions coagulate blood which is a negatively charged sol.

Blood is a colloidal solution, which means that it is made up of small particles suspended in a liquid.

The particles in blood are negatively charged, and the negative charge prevents the particles from clumping together.

When ferric chloride is applied to a bleeding wound, the Fe3+ ions in the ferric chloride react with the negatively charged particles in the blood.

This reaction causes the particles to clump together, forming a clot that stops the bleeding.

The other options are incorrect: Option A is incorrect.

Blood is not a positively charged sol.

Option B is incorrect.

Blood does not absorb ferric chloride.

Option C is incorrect.

Cl- ions do not cause coagulation of blood.
