Q.1. How is the variability of oxidation states of the transition elements different from that of the
non-transition elements? Illustrate with examples. (NCERT) Ans: i. The variability in oxidation states of transition metals is due to the incomplete filling of d-orbitals in
such a way that their oxidation states differ from each other by unity. eg. Fe2+ and Fe3+, Cu+ and Cu2+, etc. ii. In case of non-transition elements, the oxidation states differ by units of two. eg. Pb2+ and Pb4+, Sn2+ and Sn4+, etc. iii. In transition elements, the higher oxidation states are more stable for heavier elements in a group. eg. In group 6, Mo (VI) and W (VI) are more stable than Cr (VI). iv. In p-block elements, the lower oxidation states are more stable for heavier members due to inert pair
effect. eg. In group 14, Pb (II) is more stable than Pb (IV). Q.2. Describe the oxidizing action of potassium dichromate and write the ionic equations for its reaction with: i. iodide ii. iron (II) solution iii. H2S. (NCERT) Ans: Potassium dichromate, K2Cr2O7 is a strong oxidizing agent and is used as a primary standard in volumetric
analysis involving oxidation of iodides, ferrous ions and S2 ions, etc. i. It oxidizes potassium iodide to iodine. 2 3

elements: 29, 59, 74, 95, 102, 104. (NCERT) Ans: Inner transition elements have atomic numbers from 58 to 71 and 90 to 103. Hence, the atomic numbers 59,
95 and 102 are the atomic numbers of the inner transition elements. Q.4. Write the electronic configurations of the elements with the atomic numbers 61, 91 and 101.
(NCERT) Ans: The electronic configurations are given in the following table.
Element Symbol Atomic Number Electronic Configuration Promethium Pm 61 [Xe] 4f5 5d0 6s2 Protactinium Pa 91 [Rn] 5f2 6d1 7s2 Mendelevium Md 101 [Rn] 5f13 6d0 7s2
Q.5. The chemistry of the actinoid elements is not so smooth as that of the lanthanoids. Justify this
statement by giving some examples from the oxidation state of these elements. (NCERT) Ans: Lanthanoids show limited number of oxidation state, viz., +2, +3 and +4 (out of which +3 is most
common). This is because of large energy gap between 4f and 5d-subshells. The dominant oxidation state of actinoids is also +3 but they show a number of other oxidation states also. eg. uranium (Z = 92) and plutonium (Z = 94), show +3, +4, +5 and +6, neptunium (Z = 93) shows +3, +4, +5, +6 and +7 etc. This is due to small energy difference between 5f, 6d and 7s-subshells of the actinoids.

Q.6. Compare the chemistry of actinoids with that of the lanthanoids with special reference to : (NCERT)
i. electronic configuration ii. oxidation state iii. atomic size and ionic sizes iv. chemical reactivity Ans:
Characteristics Lanthanoids Actinoids i. Electronic
configuration It may be represented by [Xe]4f014 5d0 or 1 6s2
It may be represented by [Rn]5f014 6d0 or 1 7s2
ii. Oxidation state Show +3 oxidation state only, except in few cases where it is +2 or +4. They never show more than +4 oxidation state.
Show higher oxidation states such as +4, +5, +6, +7 also in addition to +3 oxidation state.
iii. Atomic and ionic sizes The ionic radii of M3+ ions in lanthanoids series show a regular decrease in size of ions with increase in atomic number. This decrease is known as lanthanoid contraction.
There is a greater and gradual decrease in the size of atoms or M3+ ions across the series. This greater decrease is known as actinoid contraction.
iv. Chemical reactivity These are less reactive metals and form oxides, sulphides, nitrides, hydroxides and halides etc. These also form H2 with acids. They show a lesser tendency for complex formation.
These are highly reactive metals especially in finely divided state. They form a mixture of oxide and hydride by action of boiling water. They combine with non-metals even at moderate temperature. They show a greater tendency for complex formation.

Q.1. FeSO4 solution mixed with (NH4)2SO4 solution in 1 : 1 molar ratio gives the test of Fe2+ ion but CuSO4
solution mixed with aqueous ammonia in 1 : 4 molar ratio does not give the test of Cu2+ ion. Explain why? (NCERT)
Ans: i. 1 : 1 molar mixture of FeSO4 and (NH4)2SO4 forms a double salt, FeSO4.(NH4)2SO4.6H2O (Mohr’s salt) which exists only in solid state. In aqueous solution, it dissociates into ions Fe2+, NH4
+ and SO4
2. Hence, it gives the test of Fe2+ ion. ii. 1 : 4 molar mixture of CuSO4 and ammonia forms a coordination compound, [Cu(NH3)4]SO4. In
aqueous solution, it retains its identity and does not dissociate into ions. Hence, it does not give the test of Cu2+ ion.
Q.2. What is the coordination entity formed when excess of aqueous KCN is added to an aqueous solution
of copper sulphate? Why is it that no precipitate of copper sulphide is obtained when H2S(g) is passed through this solution? (NCERT)
Ans: i. When excess of aqueous KCN is added to an aqueous solution of copper sulphate, the coordination entity formed is [Cu(CN)4]2.
[Cu(H2O)4]2+ + 4CN [Cu(CN)4]2 + 4H2O ii. [Cu(CN)4]2 is a coordination compound and hence, retains its identity in the aqueous solution. It does
not dissociate to give free Cu2+ ions. Hence, no precipitate of copper sulphide is obtained when H2S(g) is passed through this solution.

chlorination yields: i. a single monochloride ii. three isomeric monochlorides iii. four isomeric monochlorides (NCERT) Ans: i. In neopentane (C5H12), all the H-atoms are equivalent and hence, on photochemical chlorination
yields only one type of monohalogen derivative.

1-Bromo-3-methylbutane. (NCERT) Ans: i. Since, due to steric reasons, the order of reactivity in 2NS reactions follows the order : 1 > 2 >3,
therefore, order of reactivity of the given alkyl bromide is 1-Bromopentane > 2-Bromopentane > 2-Bromo-2-methylbutane. ii. Since, due to steric reasons, the order of reactivity of alkyl halides in 2NS reaction follows the order:
1 > 2 > 3, therefore, the order of reactivity of the given alkyl bromides is 1-Bromo-3-methylbutane (1) > 2-Bromo-3-methylbutane (2) > 2-Bromo-2-methylbutane (3). iii.
Since, in case of 1 alkyl halides, steric hindrance increases in the order: n-alkyl halides, alkyl halide
with a substituent at position other than the -position, one substituent at the -position, two substituents at the -position, therefore, the reactivity decreases in the same order. Thus, the reactivity of the given alkyl bromides decreases in the order:
1-Bromobutane > 1-Bromo-3-methylbutane > 1-Bromo-2-methylbutane > 1-Bromo-2,2-dimethylpropane. Q.9. Predict the order of reactivity of the following compounds in 1NS and 2NS reactions. i.

Chapter 10: Halogen Derivatives of Alkanes and Arenes Of the two primary bromides, the carbocation intermediate derived from (CH3)2CHCH2Br is more
stable than derived from CH3CH2CH2CH2Br because of greater electron donating inductive effect of (CH3)2CH – group. Therefore, (CH3)2CHCH2Br is more reactive than CH3CH2CH2CH2Br in 1NS reactions. CH3CH2CH(Br)CH3 is a secondary bromide and (CH3)3CBr is a tertiary bromide. Hence, the above order is followed in 1NS . The reactivity in 2NS reactions follows the reverse order as the steric hindrance around the electrophilic carbon increases in that order.
ii. C6H5C(CH3)(C6H5)Br > C6H5CH(C6H5)Br > C6H5CH(CH3)Br > C6H5CH2Br 1N(S )
C6H5C(CH3)(C6H5)Br < C6H5CH(C6H5)Br < C6H5CH(CH3)Br < C6H5CH2Br 2N(S ) Of the two secondary bromides, the carbocation intermediate obtained from C6H5CH(C6H5)Br is more
stable than obtained from C6H5CH(CH3)Br because it is stabilised by two phenyl groups due to resonance. Therefore, the former bromide is more reactive than the latter in 1NS reactions. A phenyl group is bulkier than a methyl group. Therefore, C6H5CH(C6H5)Br is less reactive than C6H5CH(CH3)Br in 2NS reaction.
Q.10. Which compound in each of the following pairs will react faster in 2NS reaction with OH? i. CH3Br or CH3I ii. (CH3)CCl or CH3Cl (NCERT) Ans: i. Since I ion is a better leaving group than Br ion, therefore, CH3I reacts faster than CH3Br in 2NS
reaction with OH ion. ii. On steric grounds, 1 alkyl halides are more reactive than tert-alkyl halides in 2NS reactions.
Therefore, CH3Cl will react at a faster rate than (CH3)3CCl in a 2NS reaction with OH ion. Q.11.Write the structures of the following organic halogen compounds: i. p-Bromochlorobenzene ii.

Q.2. Arrange the following compounds in increasing order of their reactivity in nucleophilic addition reactions:
i. Ethanal, Propanal, Propanone, Butanone ii. Benzaldehyde, p-Tolualdehyde, p-Nitrobenzaldehyde, Acetophenone. (Hint: Consider steric effect and electronic effect.) (NCERT) Ans: i. Ethanal, Propanal, Propanone, Butanone: a. Due to inductive (+I) effect aldehydes have more electrophilic carbonyl carbon than ketones. b. Hence aldehydes are more susceptible (to the attack of nucleophile) than ketones. c. Hence the reactivity of propanal and ethanal is higher than that of butanone and propanone. d. As the steric hindrance increases, reactivity decreases because the attack of the nucleophile to
the carbonyl carbon becomes more difficult. e. Hence the reactivity of propanal is lower than that of ethanal. Also the reactivity of butanone is
lesser than that of propanone. f. The increasing order of reactivity in nucleophilic addition reactions is, Butanone < Propanone < Propanal < Ethanal. ii. Benzaldehyde, p-Tolualdehyde, p-Nitrobenzaldehyde, Acetophenone: a. The effect of methyl group at para position of aromatic aldehydes is not significant. Hence the
reactivity of benzaldehyde and p-tolualdehyde is comparable. b. The nitro group at para position is an electron withdrawing group and makes the carbonyl
carbon more electrophilic. Hence p-nitrobenzaldehyde is more reactive than benzaldehyde. c. Aldehydes have more electrophilic carbonyl carbon than ketones. Hence aldehydes are more
subceptible (to the attack of nucleophile) than ketones. d. hence benzaldehyde is more reactive than acetophenone. e. The increasing order of reactivity in nucleophilic addition reactions is, Acetophenone < p-Tolualdehyde , Benzaldehyde < p-Nitrobenzaldehyde. Q.3.

Q.15.Give plausible explanation for each of the following: i. Cyclohexanone forms cyanohydrin in good yield but 2,2,6-trimethylcyclohexanone does not. ii. There are two NH2 groups in semicarbazide. However, only one is involved in the formation of
semicarbazones. iii. During the preparation of esters from a carboxylic acid and an alcohol in the presence of an
acid catalyst, the water or the ester should be removed as soon as it is formed. (NCERT) Ans: i. In cyclohexanone, the carbonyl carbon is not hindered. Hence, the nucleophile CN ion can easily
attack the carbonyl carbon. However in 2,2,6-trimethyl cyclohexanone, the carbonyl carbon is sterically hindered due to presence of methyl groups. Hence, the nucleophile CN ion cannot easily attack the carbonyl carbon.
ii. Out of two NH2 groups in semicarbazide, one is a part of amide functional group. In this, the lone pair on nitrogen atom is involved in the resonance with carbonyl group. Hence, this NH2 group cannot act as a nucleophile. Hence, it is not involved in the formation of semicarbazones.
iii. The formation of esters from a carboxylic acid and alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst is a reversible reaction. If water or ester is not removed as soon as it is formed, the ester will hydrolyse to give starting materials carboxylic acid and alcohol.
Q.16.How will you bring about the following conversions in not more than two steps? i. Propanone to Propene ii. Benzoic acid to Benzaldehyde iii. Ethanol to 3-Hydroxybutanal iv.
