Section A
1. Read the given passage and answer the questions 1 to 5that follow
A Lead storage battery is the most important type of secondary cell having a lead anode and a grid of lead packed with PbO2 as cathode.
A 38% solution of sulphuric acid is used as electrolyte. (Density=1.294 g mL-1) The battery holds 3.5 L of the acid. During the discharge of the battery, the density of H2SO4 falls to 1.139 g mL-1. (20% H2SO4 by mass)
(1) Write the reaction taking place at the cathode when the battery is in use.
(2) How much electricity in terms of Faraday is required to carry out the reduction of one mole of PbO2?
(3) What is the molarity of sulphuric acid before discharge?
(4) Lead storage battery is considered a secondary cell. Why?
(5) Write the products of electrolysis when dilute sulphuric acid is electrolysed using Platinum electrodes.
Questions 6 to 10 are one word answers :
(6) Name the substance used as depressant in the separation of two sulphide ores in Froth floatation method.
(7) Name the unit formed by the attachment of a base to 1? position of sugar in a nucleoside.
(8) Name the species formed when an aqueous solution of amino acid is dissolved in water?
(9) What type of reaction occurs in the formation of Nylon 6,6 polymer?
(10) Which of the following compoundswould undergo cannizzaro reaction
Benzaldehyde, Cyclohexanone, 2- Methylpentanal.
Questions 11 to 15 are multiple choice questions :
(11) The IUPAC name of the compound shown below is
(a) 2-bromo-6-chlorocyclohex-1-ene
(b) 6-bromo-2-chlorocyclohexene
(c) 3-bromo-1-chlorocyclohexene
(d) 1-bromo-3-chlorocyclohexene
(12) The incorrect statement about LDP is
(a) It is obtained through the free radical addition of ethene.
(b) It consists of linear molecules.
(c) It is obtained by the H-atom abstraction.
(d) Peroxide is used as an initiator.
Questions 16 to 20 :
(A) Both assertion and reason are correct statements, and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
(B) Both assertion and reason are correct statements, but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
(C) Assertion is correct, but reason is wrong statement.
(D) Assertion is wrong, but reason is correct statement.
16. Assertion : The two strands in double strand helix structure of DNA are complementary to each other
Reason : Disulphide bonds are formed between specific pairs of bases
17. Assertion : Glucose reacts with hydroxylamine to form an oxime and alsoadds a molecule of hydrogen cyanide to give cyanohydrin.
Reason : The carbonyl group is present in the open chain structure of glucose.
18. Assertion : The acidic strength of halogen acids varies in the order HF>HCl>HBr>HI
Reason : The bond dissociation enthalpy of halogen acids decreases in the order HF>HCl>HBr>HI
19. Assertion : C2H5OH is a weaker base than phenol but is a stronger nucleophile than phenol. (1)
Reason : In phenol the lone pair of electrons on oxygen is withdrawn towards the ring due to resonance.
20. Assertion : Aryl halides undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions with ease.
Reason :The carbon halogen bond in aryl halides has partial double bonds character.
