Differential pulse polarography (DPP) is more sensitive than D.C. Polarography (DCP). Consider
following reasons for it
(A) non-faradic current is less in DPP in comparison to DCP
(B) non-faradic current is more in DPP in comparison to DCP
(c) polarogram of DPP is of different shape than that of DCP
Correct reason(s) is/are
(a) A and C
(b) B and C
(c) B only
(d) A only
Soln. The residual current in case of DCP is non-faradic current which should be minimum to get the
accurate result. This problem of non-faradic current is overcome by use of DPP in which non-faradic
current is less than DCP. That is why DPP is more sensitive than DCP.
Though the polarograph is different in both cases but it has nothing to do with sensitivity.

Mn n 5 Cp CO does not follow 18-electron rule. So, this complex is most deshielded com3
pound whne we going 3d to 4d and 4d to 5d series in the transition element the shielding effect
decrease because of the electron density or the distance between metal to ligand, increases. So,
Fe n 5 Cp is more shielded than other..

(a) A Slater determinant is an antisymmetrized wavefunction
(b) Electronic wavefunction should be represented by Slater determinants
(c) A Slater determinant always corresponds to a particular spin state
(d) A Slater determinant obeys the Pauli exclusion principle
Soln. In quantum mechanics, a slater determinant is an expression that describe the wave function of a
multifermionic system that satisfies antisymmetry requirements and consequantly the Pauli principle by changing sign upon exchange of two electrons. Slater determinants is a means of ensuring
the antisymmetry of a wave function through the use of matrices. A Slater determinant always corresponds to a particular spin state is not true.

The indistinguishability correction in the Boltzmann formulation is incorporated i the following way
: (N = total number of particles, f = single-particl partition function)
(a) replace by f/N!
(b) replace fN by fN/N!
(c) replace f by f/ln(N!)
(d) replace by fN by fN/ln(N!)

Conductometric titration of a strong acid with a strong alkali (MOH) shows linear fall of conductance up to neutralization point because of
(a) formation of water
(b) increase in alkali concentration
(c) faster moving H+ being replaced by slower moving M+.
(d) neutralization of acid.
Soln. When a strong alkali e.g. sodium hydroxide is added to a solution of a strong acid, e.g. hydrochloric
acid, the reaction.
Cl M OH M Cl H 2 O
During the reaction highly conducting H are replaced by M which has much lower conductance , so addition of alkali to acid solution is accompanied by a decrease of conductance.

Soln.
When neutralisation is complete then the further addition of alkali results in an increase of
conductance, since the sodium ion and hydroxyl ion are no longer used up in the chemical reaction.
At the neutral point the conductance of the system will have a minimum value.

The stability of lyophobic colloid is the consequence of

(a) van der waals attraction among the solute-solvent adducts
(b) Brownian motion of the colloidal particles
(c) insolubility of colloidal particles in solvent
(d) electrostatic repulsion among double-layered colloidal particles
Soln. Lyophobic colloids are thermodynamically unstable but they are kinetically stable does or does not
occur depend on the balance of attractive and repulsive force. For stabilisation to occur, the repulsive forces must dominate.
