The process of formation of polymers from respective monomers is called:

  1. Polyacrylonitrile

  2. Co-polymerization

  3. Polymerization

  4. None of these


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Polymerization is a process of reacting monomer molecules together in a chemical reaction to form larger molecules or polymers.

An aqueous solution of volume 500 ml, when the reaction : $ 2Ag^+(aq) +Cu(s) \leftrightharpoons Cu^{2+}(aq) +2Ag(s) $ reached equilibrium, the concentration of $ Cu^{2+} $ ions was xM. to this solution, 500 ml of water is added.at new equilibrium , the concentration of $ Cu^{2+} $ ions would be 

  1. 2x M

  2. x M

  3. between x and 0.5 x M

  4. less than 0.5 x M


Correct Option: D

When an electric current is passed through an aqueous solution of the following, the concentrations of cation as well as anion will not change for (assume constant volume of the electrolytic solution)

  1. $ C _{S} CI $

  2. $ KNO _{3}$

  3. $ AgNO _{3}$

  4. $ HCI$


Correct Option: B

$NaCl$ is doped with $2\times { 10 }^{ -3 }$ mole % $Sr{Cl} _{2}$, the concentration of cation vacancies is

  1. $6.02\times { 10 }^{ 18 }{ mol }^{ -1 }$

  2. $1.204\times { 10 }^{ 19 }{ mol }^{ -1 }$

  3. $3.01\times { 10 }^{ 18 }{ mol }^{ -1 }$

  4. $1.204\times { 10 }^{ 21 }{ mol }^{ -1 }\quad $


Correct Option: B

Electrolysis of a solution of $ MnSO _{4}$ in aqueous sulphuric acid is a method for the preparation of $ MnO _{2}$ as per the reaction: $ Mn^{2+}(aq)+2H _{2}O\rightarrow MnO _{2}(s)+2H^{+}(aq)+H _{2}(g).$ Passing a current of 19.3 A for 2 h gives only 52.2 g of $MNO _{2}.$ The current efficiency is (Mn = 55)

  1. 8.33 %

  2. 83.33 %

  3. 41.67 %

  4. 100 %


Correct Option: B

Caesium chloride, on heating, changes into

  1. $CsCl(g)$

  2. $NaCl$ structure

  3. antifluorite structure

  4. $ZnS$ structure


Correct Option: B

A big irregular shaped vessel contained water, conductivity of which was $ 2.56 \times 10^{-3}\, S^{-1} \, m^{-1}.$ 585 g of NaCI was then added to the water and conductivity after the addition of Nacl, was found to be $ 3.06 \times 10^{-3}\,S^{-1}\, m^{-1}. $ The molar conductivity of Nacl at this concentration is $ 1.5 \times 10^{-2}\, S^{-1}\, mol^{-1}.$The capacity of vessel if it is fulfilled with water, is

  1. $ 3 \times 10^{4} 1$

  2. $ 30 \,1$

  3. $ 3 \times 10^{8} 1$

  4. $ 3 \times 10^{5} 1 $


Correct Option: A

The electrolysis of which electrolyte gives the same products in the fused state as well as in the aqueous solution state?

  1. NaCl

  2. KCl

  3. AuCl$ _{3}$

  4. BaCl$ _{2}$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

All have $Cl^-$ ions, $\therefore  Cl _2$, is released at anode
The element with reduction potential > red. potential of $H^+$ will give same results for aqueous and molter states.
From the given options only $SRP  of  Au^+  >  SRP  of  H^+$
Hence, for other salts in their aqueous solutions $H^+$  gets reduced

Hence, option C is correct.

If mercury is used as cathode in the electrolysis of aqueous NaCl solution, the ions discharged at cathode are:

  1. H$^+$

  2. Na$^+$

  3. OH$^-$

  4. Cl$^-$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

In presence of Hg electrode, sodium ions are discharged in the form of a mercury sodium amalgam and chloride ions are converted to chlorine. 
So, $Na^+$ ions discharged at cathode.

Electrolytic reduction of alumina to aluminium by Hall-Heroult process is carried out:

  1. in the presence of NaCl.

  2. in the presence of fluoride.

  3. in the presence of cryolite which forms a melt with lower melting temperature.

  4. in the presence of cryolite which forms a melt with higher melting temperature.


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Pure alumina melts at about $ 2000^{0}C$ and is a bad conductor of electricity so fused cryolite and fluorspar is added to lower the melting point and the mixture melts at $ 900^0C$.
