Consider following compounds:


$I: K _4[Fe(CN) _6], II:NH _4Cl, III: H _2SO _4$ 

Ionic, covalent and coordinate bonds are present in :

  1. I, II and III

  2. I and III

  3. II and III

  4. I and II


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$H _{2}SO _{4}$  has $3$ types of bonds- ionic, covalent and coordinate. Sulphur is the central atom,surrounded by $4$ oxygen atoms and $2$ hydrogen atoms places on left of any $2$ oxygen atoms. Now, oxygen shares one electron each with the sulphur and hydrogen atom. But by this only $2$ oxygen atoms will be able to complete octet. The remaining $2$ will complete by coordinate bonding. Both the oxygen atoms will take electrons from sulphur but sulphur won't take theirs ie sharing from only one end. This is called coordinate bond. Hydronium ions are attached with sulphate ions using ionic bonding
${ K } _{ 4 }[{ Fe(CN) } _{ 6 }]\ $: has ionic bond between ${ K }^{ + }and  { [{ Fe(CN) } _{ 6 }] }^{ 4- }$, coordinate bonding in $CN$ and covalent bond in ${ [{ Fe(CN) } _{ 6 }] }^{ 4- }$
$\ { NH } _{ 4 }Cl\ $: has ionic bond between $\ { { NH } _{ 4 } }^{ + }and  { Cl }^{ -}$, coordinate bonding in $\ { { NH } _{ 4 } }^{ + }$ and covalent bond in $\ { { NH } _{ 3 } .}^{  }\quad \$

Which of the following contains a coordinate covalent bond ?

  1. $N _2H^{+} _{5}$

  2. $BaCl _2$

  3. $HCl$

  4. $H _2O$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

${ N } _{ 2 }{ H } _{ 5 }^{ + }$ is formed from ${ N } _{ 2 }{ H } _{ 4 }$ which has a lone pair of electrons on $'N'$ and positive charge on $'H'$ takes away its electron and to complete duplet, a co-ordinate bond is present from $N$ to $H$.

$H _4N _2 + H^+ \rightarrow[H _4N _2\to H]^+$

Which of the following molecule has dative bond?

  1. CO

  2. $CO _3^{2-}$

  3. $SO _4^{-2}$

  4. All of these


Correct Option: A

The time required to complete $\dfrac{3}{4}th$ of first order reaction is $32 min.$ then find $t _{\frac{1}{2}} = ?$

  1. $16$

  2. $160$

  3. $1600$

  4. $32$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$t _{\dfrac{3}{4}} = 2t _{\dfrac{1}{2}} = 32min.$
$t _{\dfrac{1}{2}} = 16min.$

The first order rate constant for dissociation of $N _2O _5$ is $6.2\times 10^{-4}s^{-1}$. The half-life period (in $s$) of this dissociation will be.

  1. $1117.7$

  2. $111.7$

  3. $223.4$

  4. $160.9$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
$t _{1/2}=\displaystyle\frac{0.693}{k}$
$=\displaystyle\frac{0.693}{6.2\times 10^{-4}}=1117.7s$

For a first order reaction with half-life of $150$ second , the time taken for the concentration of the reactant to fall from $M/10$ to $M/100$ will be approximately 

  1. $1500\ s$

  2. $500\ s$

  3. $900\ s$

  4. $600\ s$


Correct Option: A

How many minutes will it take to plate out $5.0g$ of $Cr$ form a $Cr _2(SO _4) _3$ solution using a current of $1.50A$?

  1. $254$

  2. $309$

  3. $152$

  4. $103$


Correct Option: B

Which of the following is first order ?
i) Decomposition of $NH _{4}NO _{3}$ in aqueous solution.
ii) Inversion of cane sugar in the presence of an acid
iii) Base hydrolysis of ethyl acetate.
iv) All radioactive decays.
The correct combination is:

  1. i, ii, iv

  2. All are correct

  3. ii, iv

  4. ii, iii, iv


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Base hydrolysis of ethyl acetate is a second order reaction.
The other reactions are first order reactions.

The acid hydrolysis of the ester is:
(i) first order reaction
(ii) bimolecular reaction
(iii) unimolecular reaction
(iv) second order reaction

The true statements are:

  1. i, ii

  2. All are correct

  3. ii, iv

  4. ii, iii, iv


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$CH _{3}COOC _{2}H _{5}+H _{2}O\rightarrow CH _{3}COOH+C _{2}H _{5}OH$
$ rate=K[CH _{3}COO\ C _{2}H _{5}]^{1}[H _{2}O]^{0}$
thus, it is first order & bi molecular reaction.

Thus, statement i and ii are correct.

The hydrolysis of acetic anhydride$(CH _3CO) _2O+ H _2O\rightarrow2CH _3COOH$ is an example of :

  1. Pseudo first order reaction

  2. Pseudo second order reaction

  3. Zero order reaction

  4. Third order reaction


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

It is an example of pseudo first order reaction because here $H _{2}O$ is in excess. Thus, rate of reaction depends on only concentration of acetic anhydride.
So, rate is given by
$=k[(CH _{3}CO) _{2}O]$
