MCQ

Ammonia forms the complex $[Cu(NH)_3)_4]^{2+}$ with copper ions in alkaline solution but not in acidic solution. the reason for this is

A
In alkaline solution $Cu(OH)_2$ is precipitated which is soluble in excess of alkali
B
Copper hydroxide is amphoteric substance
C
In acidic solution hydration protects $Cu^{2+}$ ions
✓
In acidic solution protons are coordinated with ammonia molecules forming $NH_4^+$ ions

✓

Answer

Correct option: D.

In acidic solution protons are coordinated with ammonia molecules forming $NH_4^+$ ions

d
lone pair electrons of ammonia react with $H^+$ ione and convert in $NH_4^+$ ion which is not a ligand

Pure water freezes at $273 \mathrm{~K}$ and $1$ bar. The addition of $34.5 \mathrm{~g}$ of ethanol to $500 \mathrm{~g}$ of water changes the freezing point of the solution. Use the freezing point depression constant of water as $2 \mathrm{~K} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$. The figures shown below represent plots of vapour pressure ($V.P$.) versus temperature ($T$). [molecular weight of ethanol is $46 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}$ ]
