Important Questions and Preparation Tips - Phenols

Some previous years solved questions are given below:

Question 1:

Suppose the mass of a single Ag atom is ‘m’. Ag metal crystallizes in fcc lattice with unit cell of length ‘a’. The density of Ag metal in terms of ‘a’ and ‘m’ is

Solution 1:

We know that in FCC lattice the coordination number is 12 and it contains 4 atoms per unit cell.

Mass of one atom = m

Mass of unit cell = 4m

Volume of unit cell = a³

So, the density of unit cell is given as:

Hence, the correct option is (a).

Question 2:

Ionic solids with Schottky defect may contain in their structure

(a) cation vacancies only

(b) cation vacancies and interstitial cations

(c) equal number of cation and anion vacancies

(d) anion vacancies and interstitial anions

Solution 2:

Ionic solids with Schottky defect contain equal number of cation and anion vacancies.

Hence, the correct option is (c).

Question 3:

Solution 3:

Hence, the correct option is (a).
