Answer:

(i) dry cell is an example of a primary cell but nickel-cadmium cell is an example of a secondary cell.

(ii) The complex compound [Ni(CO)₄] is tetrahedral in shape and nickel is in zero oxidation state in this complex compound.

(iii) When acetaldehyde is treated with hydrazine and KOH in a high boiling solvent glycol, ethane is formed and the reaction is known as Wolff-Kishner reduction.

(iv) The transition metal ions having completely filled d-orbitals are colourless and diamagnetic in nature.

(B) Select and write the correct alternative from the choices given below.

(i) Which one of the following can produce the foul smelling compound methyl isocyanide in presence of alcoholic KOH?

(a) Chloroform and aniline

(b) Chloroform and methanol

(c) Chloroform and dimethyl amine

(d) Chloroform and methyl amine

Answer: (d) Chloroform and methyl amine

(ii) The osmotic pressure of a solution:

(P) increases with an increase in number of moles of solute.

(Q) decreases with an increase in number of moles of solute.

(R) increases at a higher temperature.

(S) is dependent on the nature of solute.

Which one of the following is correct?

(a) Only (P) and (Q) are correct

(b) Only (P) and (R) are correct

(c) Only (P) and (S) are correct

(d) Only (Q) and (S) are correct

Answer: (b) Only (P) and (R) are correct

(iii) Which one of the following alcohols is the strongest acid?

(a) Phenol

(b) Methanol

(c) Ethanol

(d) t-butyl alcohol

Answer: (a) Phenol

(iv) Which one of the following does NOT form a silver mirror on heating with Tollen's reagent?

(a) Glucose

(b) Fructose

(c) Sucrose

(d) Lactose

Answer: (c) Sucrose

(v) The coordination number and the oxidation state of the central metal 'D' in the complex [D(en)2(H2O)2]Cl3 are:

(a) 6 and 2 respectively

(b) 4 and 2 respectively

(c) 3 and 6 respectively

(d) 6 and 3 respectively

Answer: (d) 6 and 3 respectively

(vi) Given below are two statements marked Assertion and Reason. Read the two statements carefully and select the correct option.

Assertion: The process of halogenation of benzene takes place in the presence of anhydrous FeCl3.

Reason: Anhydrous FeCl3 prepares nucleophile to attack the benzene ring.

(a) Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.

(b) Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.

(c) Assertion is true and Reason is false.

(d) Both Assertion and Reason are false.

Answer: (c) Assertion is true and Reason is false.
Explanation: FeCl₃ is used in halogenation as a Lewis acid catalyst to generate the electrophile (X⁺), not a nucleophile.

(vii) Given below are two statements marked Assertion and Reason. Read the two statements carefully and select the correct option.

Assertion: The Zr-Hf pair of elements has the same value of atomic radii though Zr and Hf are placed in different periods in the periodic table.

Reason: The lanthanoid contraction prevents the expected increase in atomic radii of Hf.

(a) Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.

(b) Both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.

(c) Assertion is true and Reason is false.

(d) Both Assertion and Reason are false.

Answer: (a) Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
Explanation: The lanthanoid contraction causes Zr and Hf to have nearly identical atomic radii despite being in different periods.
