PART-C71. Differential pulse polarography (DPP) is more sensitive than D.C. Polarography (DCP). Consider
following reasons for it(A) non-faradic current is less in DPP in comparison to DCP(B) non-faradic current is more in DPP in comparison to DCP(c) polarogram of DPP is of different shape than that of DCPCorrect reason(s) is/are(a) A and C (b) B and C (c) B only (d) A only
Soln. The residual current in case of DCP is non-faradic current which should be minimum to get theaccurate result. This problem of non-faradic current is overcome by use of DPP in which non-faradiccurrent is less than DCP. That is why DPP is more sensitive than DCP.
Though the polarograph is different in both cases but it has nothing to do with sensitivity.Correct option is (d)

• During the reaction highly conducting H are replaced by M which has much lower conduc-tance , so addition of alkali to acid solution is accompanied by a decrease of conductance.
56 SOLVED PAPER : CSIR-UGC-NET/JRF June 2015
• When neutralisation is complete then the further addition of alkali results in an increase ofconductance, since the sodium ion and hydroxyl ion are no longer used up in the chemical reac-tion.
• At the neutral point the conductance of the system will have a minimum value.Correct option is (c)
