First Year Chemistry Chapter 9 Online Short Questions for 1st Year Chemistry Chapter 9 Solutions Preparation

Define "heat of solution" and "hydration energy"?

• Ans 1: The quantity of heat energy that is absorbed or released when a substance forms solution, is termed as heat of solution.
  When ionic compound is dissolved in water, the first step is the separation of ions from solid and second step is separated ions are surrounded by solvent molecules.A Hydrated ion is attracted by the solvent dipoles and energy is released, so second step is exothermic. The energy given out by the second step is known as the hydration energy .

• Ans 1:

Define fractional crystallization.How is it useful?

• Ans 1: Fractional Crystallization: The separation of solid substances from a solution one by one on cooling is called fractional crystallization.This technique is used for separation of impurities from sample.

• Ans 1: It is depression of freezing point, when one mole of non-volatile and non-electrolyte solute is dissolved in one kg of solvent.

The concentration in terms of molality is independent of temperature but molarity depends upon temperature .Why?

• Ans 1: In molality mass of solvent is taken.Mass us independent of temperature.In molarity volume of solution is take.Volume changes by change in temperature.

Can sugar cannot be dissolved in benzene.Give reason?

• Ans 1: Can-sugar is apolar covalent substance and it is soluble in polar solvent like water. Sugar dissolve in water due to the formation of H-bonding between solute-solvent,but not in benzene.As we simply say that solubility based upon principle"Like dissolves like".

Give conjugate solution with one example.

• Ans 1: Each liquide layer of solution of two liquids which are not miscible with each other is a saturated solution of the other liquid.Such solutions are called conjugated solutions.On shaking equal volumes of water and ether, two layers are formed which is example of conjugated solution.

Differentiate between continuous and discontinuous solubility curves?

• Ans 1: Continuous Solubility Curve: These are smooth curves and do not show any sharp break points.(Continuous increase or decreases in solubility with temperature.e.g.Solubility curves of KCIO₃,K₂Cr₂O₇ Etc.

Boiling points of liquid are increased when solute is added to them.Give reason?

• Ans 1: Because the vapour pressure of solvent decrease due to the pressure of solute.Therefore,we have to supply high temperature in order to equalized the vapour pressure of solvent to external pressure to boil it. This results in the increase of boiling point of solvent in the presence of solute.

NaCl and KNO₃ Lowers the melting point of ice.Give reason?

• Ans 1: When NaCl andKNO₃ Is added to H₂O , is vapour pressure is lowered. Due to lowering of vapour pressure, solution freezes below than the freezing point of water.Hence NaCl and KNO₃ Is used to lower the melting point of ice.

Why some properties are called colligative properties?

Why is the vapour pressure of a solution less than pure solvent?

• Ans 1: In pure solvent all the surface of solvent is covered by solvent molecules.But when a solute is added to it from a solution.Some surface is occupied by solute particles. Hence escaping tendency of solvent is decreases and thus vapour pressure of solution also lowered.

In summer the antifreeze solutions protect the radiations from boiling over.How?

• Ans 1: The boiling point of liquid is increased by the addition of solute such as ethylene glycol in water.Therefore in summer the antifreeze liquids protect the water in car radiators from over boiling. Similarly the addition of a solute in water depress its freezing point. During winter it protect a car by preventing the liquid from freezing in radiators.

Why the non-ideal solutions do not obey the Raoult's law?

• Ans 1: Mnay solutions do not behave ideally as they show deviation from Raoult's law due to difference in their molecular structure I.e. Size, shape and intermolecular forces.During their formation change in volume and enthalpy take place.Hence they show deviation from ideality.
