Q:

One method by which the components of air can be seperated is 

A) shaking with caustic soda solution B) shaking with water
C) fractional distillation of liquid air D) passing air over heated magnesium
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) fractional distillation of liquid air

Explanation:

The two main components of air are nitrogen and oxygen. They are seperated by the fractional distillation of liquid air. Liquefied air contains liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen. Liquid nitrogen with the lower boiling point more readily evaporates than the less volatile liquid oxygen.

Q:

Which reaction occurs spontaneously?

A) Cl2(g) + 2NaF(aq)--> F2(g) + 2NaCl(aq) B) I2(s) + 2NaF(aq)--> F2(g) + 2NaI(aq)
C) Cl2(g) + 2NaBr(aq)-->Br2(l) + 2NaCl(aq) D) I2(s) + 2NaBr(aq)--> Br2(l) + 2NaI(aq)
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Cl2(g) + 2NaBr(aq)-->Br2(l) + 2NaCl(aq)

Explanation:

In this chemical reaction chlorine change oxidation number from 0 to -1 (reduction) and bromine change oxidation number from -1 to 0 (oxidation).

Chlorine is stronger oxidation reagent than bromine.

In VIIA or group 17 (halogen elements) there are six elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (At) and tennessin(Ts).

They have high electronegativity because they have seven valence electrons in their outermost energy level, so they can gain an electron to have the octet rule.  

Going down in the group, element are weaker oxidazing reagent and less reactive.

Q:

What is the bond order of N2+?

A) 3 B) 1.5
C) 2.5 D) 2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 2.5

Explanation:

Bond Order  = 1/2[ Nb - Na]

where

Nb = Number of electrons in bonding molecular orbitals.

Na = Number of Electrons in antibonding molecular orbitals

 

Bond Order of N2⁺:

Total number of electrons: 13

Electronic Configuration= :σ1s² σ*1s² σ2s² σ*2s² π 2py² [π2pz² σ2px1 ]

Bond Order = [9-4]/2 = 5/2 = 2.5.
