  5. What are interstitial compounds?

  6. In an octahedral crystal field, draw the figure to show splitting of d orbitals

  7. Why ionic crystals are hard and brittle?

  8. Consider the oxidation of nitric oxide to form NO2
    2NO(g) + O2(g) ➝2NO2(g)
    (a). Express the rate of the reaction in terms of changes in the concentration of NO,O2 and NO2.
    (b). At a particular instant, when [O2] is decreasing at 0.2 mol L−1s−1 at what rate is [NO2] increasing at that instant?

  9. Rate constant k of a reaction varies with temperature T according to the following Arrhenius equation  \(\log K=\log A-\frac { { E }_{ a } }{ 2.303R } \left( \frac { 1 }{ T } \right) \)Where Ea is the activation energy. When a graph is plotted for log k Vs \(\frac{1}{T}\) a straight line with a slope of -4000K is obtained. Calculate the activation energy.

  10. When aqueous ammonia is added to CuSO4 solution, the solution turns deep blue due to the formation of tetra ammine copper (II) complex,\({ [Cu({ H }_{ 2 }O)_4] }_{ (aq) }^{ 2+ }+ 4{ NH }_{ 3 }(aq)\rightleftharpoons { [Cu{ ({ NH }_{ 3 }) }_{ 4 }] }_{ (aq) }^{ 2+ }\) among H2O and NH3 Which is stronger Lewis base.
