A first-order reaction has a rate constant of 0.01155 min^{-1 . What percentage of the reactant remains after 90 minutes

Given: A first-order reaction has a rate constant of 0.01155 min^{-1 . What percentage of the reactant remains after 90 minutes? These values define the system as per NCERT data. Formula: ln frac[R]_0[R] = k t = 0.01155 × 90 = 1.0395. This is standard NCERT relation. Substitution & Calculation: frac[R][R]_0 = e^{-1.0395 = 0.3536 approx 35% . Result: The computed value matches expected outcome and confirms correct choice as per NCERT.

Which of the following is an allylic halide?

Allylic halides have a halogen atom attached to an sp3 carbon adjacent to a carbon-carbon double bond. This follows from NCERT principle where relation explains outcome clearly for students.

Ref: NCERT Chemistry Textbook for Class XI and XII, Chapter: Haloalkanes and Haloarenes, Topic: Allylic halides, CH₂=CHCH₂Cl as allylic halide.

The solubility product of MnS is 2.5 × 10⁻¹³. What is its solubility in water?

Given: The solubility product of MnS is 2.5 × 10⁻¹³. What is its solubility in water? These values define the system as per NCERT data. Formula: MnS(s) Mn²+ + S²-, K_{sp = S². This is standard NCERT relation. Substitution & Calculation: S² = 2.5 × 10⁻¹³, S = sqrt2.5 × 10⁻¹³approx 5.0 × 10⁻⁷M. Result: The computed value matches expected outcome and confirms correct choice as per NCERT.

Which of the following compounds is formed when CH₃CH₂NH₂ reacts with (CH₃)2CHCHO followed by H₂/Ni ?

Ethanamine reacts with 2-methylpropanal ( (CH₃)2CHCHO ) to form an imine, reduced by H₂/Ni to CH₃CH₂NHCH₂CH(CH₃)2 (N-(2-methylpropyl)ethanamine). This follows from NCERT principle where relation explains outcome clearly for students.

For an endothermic reaction with Δ H > 0 and Δ S < 0, under what condition is it spontaneous?

Given: For an endothermic reaction with Δ H > 0 and Δ S < 0, under what condition is it spontaneous? These values define the system as per NCERT data. Formula: For Δ H > 0 and Δ S < 0, Δ G = Δ H - TΔ S > 0 always, so it is never spontaneous.. This is standard NCERT relation. Substitution & Calculation: Substituting values and simplifying step by step as per NCERT method. Result: The computed value matches expected outcome and confirms correct choice as per NCERT.

How many grams of a non-volatile solute (molar mass 180 g/mol) must be dissolved in 540 g of water to reduce its vapor p

Given: How many grams of a non-volatile solute (molar mass 180 g/mol) must be dissolved in 540 g of water to reduce its vapor pressure to 98% of its original value? These values define the system as per NCERT data. Formula: Relative lowering = p⁰ - p/p⁰ = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02. This is standard NCERT relation. Substitution & Calculation: Moles of water = 540/18 = 30 mol . 0.02 = n_2/30, n_2 = 0.6 mol . Mass = 0.6 × 180 = 108 g . Result: The computed value matches expected outcome and confirms correct choice as per NCERT.

Which alcohol is commonly used in antifreeze solutions?

Ethylene glycol is widely used as an antifreeze in cooling systems due to its low freezing point. This follows from NCERT principle where relation explains outcome clearly for students.

The heat capacity of a calorimeter is 10 kJ/K. If the temperature rises from 298 K to 300 K during a reaction, what is t

Given: The heat capacity of a calorimeter is 10 kJ/K. If the temperature rises from 298 K to 300 K during a reaction, what is the heat absorbed by the calorimeter? These values define the system as per NCERT data. Formula: q = C Δ T. This is standard NCERT relation. Substitution & Calculation: C = 10 kJ/K, Δ T = 300 - 298 = 2 K. So, q = 10 × 2 = 20 kJ. Result: The computed value matches expected outcome and confirms correct choice as per NCERT.
