Chemistry doubt
« on: May 22, 2010, 05:37:41 pm »
Hey friends, what happens when an impurity is present in a substance, does:

  • boiling point change; increase or decrease
  • melting point change; increase or decrease

& when does ph increase or decrease?

e.g adding more water does what, not by neutralization. 

thanks, acash09

An impure subsance melts at a rangge BELOW THE MELTING POINT
                            boils at a range  ABOVE THE BOILING POINT

 ph gr8er 7 is alkaline .....ph  less than 7 is acidic  .

adding more water just makes somethin more DILUTE ..means less acidic/or alkaline

Wait, I recall that back in 03 / 04 there is a reaction that involves Mg ribbon and acid, if you increase the volume of acid, the change in temp would decrease, same theory holds true for water, if it is a metal + water reaction, as we all know, salt and hydrogen is produced, yet the change in temperature would be smaller if greater volume of water is used. This is also a common question that appeared in Paper 6.

the multiple choice is on tuesday :( the paper 3 is in like 2 weeks 7th of june :D
Anyways my questions is for paper 1 (multi) do we need to knw the core material only or all of it(including extended)???

Oh, I thought for Papers 1 + 6 are aimed for Core curriculum.  That's why stuff like Condensation Polymerisation never comes up!

well yea the mcq's are based on the core syllabus but every ppr tends to have few tricky questions which tests both......if u had done only core it  would look gibberish bt havin dne extended it makes sense....... otherwise it be funny if a core dude got A in ppr 1 and 6......nd then couldnt go above C in pp3 lolzzz :P

variant one

Ok remember when concentrated NaCl is electrolyzed:
First the solution contains Na+ Cl- and H+ and OH- (from water). The positive inos go to the cathode, and negative ions to the anode.

At the CATHODE
the H+ ions accept electrons, since it is less reactive than Na (always elements which is more reactive 'likes' to stay in the ionic form)
2H+  +  2e-  ---> H2

At the ANODE
the Cl- ions give up the electrons more readily than the OH- ions do.
2Cl-  -->  Cl2  +  2e-

what left in the solution is Na+ and OH- which combine to form NaOH

in your ques ..is 'D' .. the indicator solution turns blue at -ve as NaOH is produced .. Chlorine doesnt  show any change in presence of an indicator solution ;)

jus understand the concept ..
