A
$-41.3 kJ mol ^{-1}$
✓
$-46.2 kJ mol ^{-1}$
C
$-56.5 kJ mol ^{-1}$
D
$-36.9 kJ mol ^{-1}$

Answer

Correct option: B.

$-46.2 kJ mol ^{-1}$

(b) $-46.2 kJ mol ^{-1}$
Explanation: Given, $N _2(g)+3 H _2(g) \rightarrow 2 NH _3(g) ; \Delta_r H ^{\circ}=-92.4 kJ mol ^{-1}$.
Chemical reaction for the enthalpy of formation of $NH _3(g)$ is as follows:
$
\frac{1}{2} N_2(g)+\frac{3}{2} H_2(g) \rightarrow N H_3(g)
$
Therefore, $\Delta_f H^{\circ}=\frac{-92.4}{2}=-46.2 kJ / mol$

A
Alkali metals
B
Alkaline earth metals
✓
Lanthanoids
D
Transition elements

Answer

Correct option: C.

Lanthanoids

(c) Lanthanoids
Explanation: The two rows of elements at the bottom of the Periodic Table, called the Lanthanoids, $Ce ( Z =58)- Lu ( Z =71)$ and Actinoids, $\operatorname{Th}( Z =90)- Lr ( Z =103)$ are characterized by the outer electronic configuration $( n -2) f ^{1-14}( n -1) d ^{0-1} ns^2$. The last electron added to each element is filled in f- orbital. These two series of elements are hence called the Inner-Transition Elements (f-Block Elements).

MCQ 111 Mark

Photoelectric effect established that light

✓
behaves like particles
B
behaves like magnetic fields
C
behaves like waves
D
behaves like rays

Answer

Correct option: A.

behaves like particles

(a) behaves like particles
Explanation: The emission of free electrons from a metal surface when light is shone on it is called the photoemission or the photoelectric effect. This effect led to the conclusion that light is made up of packets or quantum of energy. Einstein already associated the light quantum with momentum. This strongly supported the particle nature of light and these particles were named photons. Thus, the wave-particle duality of light came into the picture. Einstein won the Nobel Prize for Physics not for his work on relativity, but for explaining the photoelectric effect.

MCQ 121 Mark

The number of moles of solute present in 1 kg of a solvent is called __________.

A
Molarity (M)
B
ppm
C
Normality( N )
✓
Molality (m)

Answer

Correct option: D.

Molality (m)

(d) Molality (m)
Explanation: Molality is defined as no. of moles of solute present per kg of solvent. It is denoted as " m ". Mathematically, Molality $( m )=$ [number of moles of the solute] $/ kg$ of solvent
Since this mode of expressing the strength of a solution involves (weight/weight) relationship of solute and solvent, the molality of the solution is not affected by variation in temperatures of the solution.
