Photochemical smog

Photochemical smog

· Smog is a mixture of smoke and fog.

· Oxides of nitrogen and hydrocarbons are let into the atmosphere from automobile

exhaust. The action of sunlight on these pollutants leads to the formation of

peroxyacyl nitrate which causes photochemical smog.

10 objectives in inorganic chemistry

1. Dimethyl glyoxime forms a square planar complex with Ni²⁺. This complex should be

a.diamagnetic b.paramagnetic having 1 unpaired electron

c.paramagnetic having 2 unpaired electrons d.ferromagnetic.

2.The least stable metal carbonyl as per the bonding considerations should be

a.Cr(CO)₆ b.Mn(CO)₆ c.Fe(CO)₅ d.Ni(CO)₄

3.Platinum metal (Pt) dissolves in aqua-regia but not in concentrated HCl or HNO₃ because

a.HCl oxidizes Pt in the presence of HNO₃

b.HNO₃ reacts with HCl to form chlorine which attacks Pt

c.HNO₃ oxidizes Pt which is followed by formation of a chloro complex

d.HCl and HNO₃ together give O₂ that oxidizes Pt
4.A coordination complex of type MX₂Y₂ [M = metal ion; X,Y = monodentate ligands], can have either a tetrahedral or a square planar geometry. The maximum number of possible isomers in these two cases are respectively a.1 and 2 b.2 and 1 c.1 and 3 d.3 and 2

5..When H₂S is passed through a solution containing Cu²⁺, Cd²⁺ and an excess of cyanide ions, cadmium sulphide precipitates while copper ions remain in solution. This is because

a.Cu²⁺ forms a stable complex with cyanide while Cd²⁺ does not

b.Cu²⁺ forms a more stable complex with cyanide than Cd²⁺

c.Cu²⁺ does not form a sulphide

d.both CdS and CuS are formed, but CuS is soluble

6.Milk of magnesia used as a medicine for treating indigestion is a substance that

a.helps in disintegration of food products leading to their facile metabolism

b.combines with gastric hydrochloric acid thereby enhancing the latter’s efficiency

c.improves the enzymatic activities inside the stomach

d.neutralizes excess acidity, providing a buffered medium inside the stomach

7.In nature, ammonia is synthesized by nitrifying bacteria using enzymes while in industry it is manufactured from N₂ and H₂ using iron oxide catalyst at 550⁰C. Under the same industrial conditions, enzymes cannot be used because

a.enzymes get deactivated at high temperature

b.enzymes catalyze reactions only in living systems

c.the reaction becomes vigorous and uncontrollable

d.the enzymes use nitrates in place of N₂

8.The molar conductivities of H⁺, Li⁺ and Na⁺ ions in aqueous solutions at infinite dilution are in the order

a.H⁺ > Li⁺ > Na⁺ b.H⁺ <>+ <>+ c.H⁺ > Na⁺ > Li⁺ d.Na⁺ > H⁺ > Li⁺

9..Aluminium oxide exists in nature as gems with different colours. The reason for the difference in colour is that

a.the oxidation states of aluminium in these gems are different

b.the extent of crystallinity in these gems is different

c.the Al-O bonding is different in these gem structures

d.there are different transition metal ions present as impurities in these gems

10.There is a mixture of Cu (II) chloride and Fe(II) sulphate. The best way to separate the metal ions from this mixture in qualitative analysis is by treating it with

b.ammonium hydroxide buffer, where only Fe(II) hydroxide will be precipitated

c.hydrogen sulphide in mild acidic medium, where only Fe(II) sulphide will be precipitated
