(i) Suppose the reactant of a reaction is present in one solvent and the other reactant is present in an another solvent.
(ii) The reaction between them is very slow, if the solvents are immisible.
(iii) As the solvents from separate phases the reactants have to migrate across the boundary to react.
(iv) But migration of reactants across the boundary is not easy. For such situations a third solvent is added which is miscible with both.
(v) So, the phase boundary is eliminated reactants freely mix and react fast.
(vi) But for large scale production of any product, use of a third solvent is not convenient as it may be expensive.
(vii) For such problems phase transfer catalysis provides a simple solution, which avoides the use of solvents.
(viii) It directs the use a phase transfer catalyst (a phase transfer reagent) to facilitate transport of a reactant in one solvent to the other solvent where the second reactant is present.
(ix) As the reactants are now brought together they rapidly react and form the product.

Given: K = 0.335;
Eo = (Ag+, Ag) = 0.7991 V
n = 1, F = 96495 C
Formula:

1. Daniel cell is a galvanic cell. This is a voltaic cell also.
(a) The separation of half reaction is the basis for the construction of Daniel cell. It consists of two half cells.
(i) Oxidation half cell: A metallic zinc strip that dips into an aqueous solution of zinc sulphate taken in a beaker, as shown in Figure
(ii) Reduction half cell: A copper strip that dips into an aqueous solution of copper sulphate taken in a beaker, as shown in Figure
(iii) Joining the half cells:
(a) The zinc and copper strips are externally connected using a wire through a switch (k) and a load (example: volt meter). The electrolytic solution present in the cathodic and anodic compartment are connected using an inverted U tube containing a agar-agar gel mixed with an inert electrolyte such as KCI, Na2SO4 etc.,
(b) The ions of inert electrolyte do not react with other ions present in the half I cells and they are not either oxidised (or) reduced at the electrodes. The solution in the salt bridge cannot get poured out, but through which the ions can move into (or) out of the half cells.
(c) When the switch (k) closes the circuit, the electrons flows from zinc strip to copper strip. This is due to the following redox reactions which are taking place at the respective electrodes.
(iv) Anodic oxidation:
(i) zinc strip acts as the anode.
(ii) Here,oxidation occurs.
The electrode at which the oxidation occur is called the anode. In Daniel cell, the oxidation take place at zinc electrode, i.e., zinc is oxidised to Zn2+ ions and the electrons.
The Zn2+ ions enters the solution and the electrons enter the zinc metal, then flow through the external wire and then enter the copper strip.
Electrons are liberated at zinc electrode and hence it is negative (-ve).
\(Zn_{ (s) }\longrightarrow { { Zn }^{ 2+ }_{ (aq) }+{ 2e }^{ - } } \) (loss of electron-oxidation)
(v) Cathodic reduction:
As discussed earlier. the electrons flow through the circuit from zinc to copper, where the Cu2+ ions in the solution accept the electrons, get reduced to copper and the same get deposited on the electrode Here, the electrons are consumed and hence it is positive (+ve).
\({ Cu }_{ (aq) }^{ 2+ }+{ 2e }^{ - }\longrightarrow { { Cu }_{ (s) } } \)(gain of electron - reduction)
b) When a Zinc metal strip is placed in a copper sulphate solution, the blue colour of the solution fades and the copper is deposited on the zinc strip as red - brown crust due to the following spontaneous chemical reaction.
\(\mathrm{Zn}_{(\mathrm{s})}+\mathrm{CuSO}_{4(\mathrm{aq})} \rightarrow \mathrm{ZnSO}_{4(\mathrm{aq})}+\mathrm{Cu}_{(\mathrm{s})}\)
The energy produced in the above reaction is lost to the surroundings as heat.
In the above redox reaction, Zinc is oxidised to Zn2+ ions and the Cu2+ ions are reduced to metallic copper. The half reactions are represented as below.
\(\mathrm{Zn}_{(\mathrm{s})} \rightarrow \mathrm{Zn}^{2+}{ }_{(\mathrm{aq})}+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \text {(oxidation) } \)
\(\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}{ }_{(\mathrm{aq})}+2 \mathrm{e}^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{Cu}_{(\mathrm{s})} \text { (reduction) }\)
If we perform the above two half reactions separately in an apparatus as shown in figure, some of the energy produced in the reaction will be converted into electrical energy.

(i) Ostwald's dilution law relates the dissociation constant of the weak acid (Ka) with its degree of dissociation (α) and the concentration (c).
where \(\alpha=\frac{\text { Number of moles dissociated }}{\text { Total number of moles }}\)
(ii) The dissociation of acetic acid can be represented as
\(\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COOH} \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{H}^{+}+\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{COO}^{-}\)
The dissociation constant of acetic acid is,
\({ K }_{ a }=\frac { \left[ { H }^{ + } \right] \left[ { CH }_{ 3 }COO^{ - } \right] }{ \left[ { CH }_{ 3 }COOH \right] } \) ........(1)
| CH3COOH | H+ | CH3COO- | |
| Initial number of moles | 1 | - | - |
| Degree of dissociation of CH3COOH | α | - | - |
| Number of moles at equilibrium | 1-α | α | α |
| Equilibrium concentration | (1-α)C | αC | αC |
Substituting the equilibrium concentration in equation (1)
\({ K }_{ a }=\cfrac { \left( \alpha C \right) \left( \alpha C \right) }{ \left( 1-\alpha \right) C } \)
\({ K }_{ a }=\cfrac { { \alpha }^{ 2 }C }{ 1-\alpha } \) .......(2)
(iii) We know that weak acid dissociates only to a very small extent compared to one, a is so small and hence in the denominator (1 - α) ⋍1. The above expression (2) now becomes,
ka =a2C \(\Rightarrow { \alpha }^{ 2 }=\cfrac { { k }_{ a } }{ C } \) ; \(\alpha =\sqrt { \cfrac { { K }_{ a } }{ C } } \)
(iv) When dilution increases, the degree of dissociation of weak electrolyte also increases. This is called Ostwald's dilution law
Also \(;\left[\mathrm{H}^{+}\right]=\alpha \mathrm{C}\) and \(\left[\mathrm{H}^{+}\right]=\left(\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}}}{\mathrm{C}}}\right) \mathrm{C}=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \mathrm{C}^{2}}{\mathrm{C}}}=\sqrt{\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{a}} \cdot \mathrm{C}}\)
Similarly for a weak base
\(\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{b}}=\alpha^2 \mathrm{C} ; \quad \therefore \alpha=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{b}}}{\mathrm{C}}}, \\ \end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned} & {\left[\mathrm{OH}^{-}\right] \alpha \mathrm{C}=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{b}}}{\mathrm{C}}} \times \mathrm{C}=\sqrt{\frac{\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{b}} \mathrm{C}^2}{\mathrm{C}}}=\sqrt{\mathrm{K}_{\mathrm{b}} \mathrm{C}}} \end{aligned}\)
102.
Given data: Rate = 5.2 x 10-6 mol lit-1 sec-1
Initial concentration [A] = 2.6 x 10-3
Formula: Rate = k[A]1
Solution: Rate = 5.2 x 10-6 mol lit-1 sec-1 = k x 2.6 x 10-3 lit-1
= \(\frac { 5.26\times { 10 }^{ -6 }mol{ \ lit }^{ -1 }{ sec }^{ -1 } }{ 2.6\times { 10 }^{ -3 }mol \ { lit }^{ -1 } } \)= 2 x 10-3
∴ k = 2 x 10-3 s-1
103.
(i) It is generally expected a steady decrease in atomic radius along a period as the nuclear charge increases and the extra electrons are added to the same sub shell.
(ii) But for the 3d transition elements, the expected decrease in atomic radius is observed from Sc to V, thereafter up to Cu the atomic radius nearly remains the same.
(iii) As we move from Sc to Zn in 3d series the extra electrons are added to the 3d orbitals, the added 3d electrons only partially shield the increased nuclear charge and hence the effective nuclear charge increases slightly.
(iv) However, the extra electrons added to the 3d sub shell strongly repel the 4s electrons and these two forces are operated in opposite direction and as they tend to balance each other, it leads to constancy in atomic radii.
(v) At the end of the series, d - orbitals of Zinc contain 10 electrons in which the repulsive interaction between the electrons is more than the effective nuclear charge and hence, the orbitals slightly expand and atomic radius slightly increases.
104.
(I) Since the byproduct of roasting to sulphide ore is SO2 It turns lime water milky.
Therefore, gas 'B' must be SO2

\(\underset { (A) }{ { S }_{ g } } +{ 8O }_{ 2 }\overset { \Delta }{ \longrightarrow } \underset { (B) }{ { 8SO }_{ 2 } } \)
(iii) Gas (B) reduces acidified aqueous KMnO4 solution and reduces Fe3+ to Fe2+ salts as shown below:

(i) Every metal atom has two types of valencies Primary valency or ionisable valency Secondary valency or non ionisable valency
(ii) The primary valency corresponds to the oxidation state of the metal ion. It is always satisfied by negative ions.
(iii) Secondary valency corresponds to the coordination number of the metal ion or atom. It is satisfied by either negative ions or neutral molecules.
(iv) The molecules or ions that satisfy secondary valencies are called ligands.
(v) The ligands which satisfy secondary valencies must project in definite directions in space. So the secondary valencies are directional in nature whereas the primary valencies are non - directional in nature.
(vi) The ligands have unshared pair of electrons. These unshared pair of electrons are donated to central metal ion or atom in a compound. Such compounds are called coordination compounds.

109.
(i) Collision theory is based on the kinetic theory of gases. According to this theory, a chemical reaction occurs as a result of collisions between the reacting molecules.
(ii) Let us understand this theory by considering the following reaction.
A2(g) + B2(g) ⟶ 2AB(g)
(iii) If we consider that, the reaction between A2 and B2 molecules proceeds through collisions between them, then the rate would be proportional to the number of collisions per second.
(iv) Rate ∝ number of molecules colliding per litre per second (collision rate).
(v) The number of collisions is directly proportional to the concentration of both A2 and B2.
Collison rate ∝ [A2][B2]
Collision rate = Z [A2][B2]
(vi) Where, Z is a constant
(vii) A fraction of effective collisions (f) is given by the following expression
\(f={ e }^{ \frac { { -E }_{ a } }{ RT } }\)
(xiv) This fraction of collisions is further reduced due to orientation factor i.e., even if the reactant collides with sufficient energy, they will not react unless the orientation of the reactant molecules is suitable for the formation of the transition state.
(viii) The diagram illustrates the importance of proper alignment of molecules which leads to reaction.
(ix) The fraction of effective collisions (f) having proper orientation is given by the steric factor p.
⇒ Rate = p x f x collision rate
\(\Rightarrow Rate=p\times { e }^{ \frac { -Ea }{ RT } }\times Z\left[ { A }_{ 2 } \right] \left[ { B }_{ 2 } \right] \quad ...(1)\)
As per the rate law,
Rate = \(k=\left[ { A }_{ 2 } \right] \left[ { B }_{ 2 } \right] \quad ...(2)\)
Where k is the rate constant
On comparing equation (1) and (2), the rate constant k is
\(k=pZ{ e }^{ \frac { -Ea }{ RT } }\)

Zone refining :
1. Zone refining method is based on the principles of fractional crystallisation.
2. When an impure metal is melted and allowed to solidify, the impurities will prefer to be in the molten region. In this process the impure metal is taken in the form of a rod.
3. One end of the rod is heated using a mobile induction heater which results in melting of the metal on that portion of the rod.
4. When the heater is slowly moved to the other end the pure metal crystallises while the impurities will move on to the adjacent molten zone.
5. As the heater moves further away, the molten zone containing impurities also moves along with it.
6. The process is repeated several times by moving the heater in the same direction again and again to get pure metal.
7. This process is carried out in an inert gas atmosphere to prevent the oxidation of metals.
8. Elements such as germanium (Ge), silicon (Si) and galium (Ga) that are used as semiconductor are refined using this process.

Formula:
\(\log { \frac { { k }_{ 2 } }{ { k }_{ 1 } } } =\frac { { E }_{ a }\left( { T }_{ 2 }-{ T }_{ 1 } \right) }{ 2.303R{ T }_{ 1 }{ T }_{ 2 } } \)
Given:
Energy of activation: E = 150 kJ = 150000 J
Temperatures: T1 = 673 K; T2 = 773 K
Rate constant: k1 = 2.3 x 10-3
Gas constant: R = 8.314 J k-1 mol-1
Solution:
\(\log { \frac { { k }_{ 2 } }{ { k }_{ 1 } } } =\frac { { k }_{ 2 } }{ 2.3\times { 10 }^{ -3 } } =\frac { 150000(773-673) }{ 2.303\times 8.314\times 673\times 773 } \)
\(=\frac { 15000000 }{ 2.303\times 8.314\times 673\times 773 } \)
\(\log { \frac { { k }_{ 2 } }{ 2.3\times { 10 }^{ -3 } } } \) = 1.505
\(\frac { { k }_{ 2 } }{ 2.3\times { 10 }^{ -3 } } \) Antilog 1.5905 = 32
∴ k2 = 2.3 x 10-3 x 32 = 7.36 x 10-2
k2 = 7.36 x 10-2

(i) The step which has the lowest rate value among the other steps of the reaction is called as the rate determining step (or) rate limiting step: (or)
(ii) The overall rate of a reaction is controlled by the slowest step in a reaction called the rate determining step.
Example:
\(2 \mathrm{~A}+\mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{C}+\mathrm{D}\) going by two steps like,
\( \mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B} \stackrel{\mathrm{k}_{1}}{\longrightarrow} \mathrm{C}+\mathrm{Z}-(1) \text { Step }(\text { slow }) \)
\(Z+A \stackrel{k_{2}}{\longrightarrow} D-(2) \text { Step }(\text { fast }) \)
Over all reaction: \(2 \mathrm{~A}+\mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{C}+\mathrm{D}\)
Here \(A+B \underset{\text { Slow }}{\stackrel{K_{1}}{\longrightarrow}} C+Z\), step is the rate determining step. For the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide catalysed by I-.
2H2O2(aq)\(\rightarrow\) 2H2O(I) + O2(g)
It is experimentally found that the reaction is first order with respect to both H2,O2, and I-, which indicates that I- is also involved in the reaction. The mechanism involves the following steps.
Step: 1
H2O2(aq)+I-1(aq) \(\rightarrow\) H2O(l)+OI-1(aq)
Step: 2
H2O2(aq)+OI-1(aq)\(\rightarrow\) H2O + I-(aq) + O(g)
Overall reaction is
2H2O2(aq) \(\rightarrow\) 2H2O(l) + O2(g)
These two reactions are elementary reactions. Adding equation (1), and (2) gives the overall reaction. Step 1 is the rate determining step, since it involves both H2,O2 and I-, the overall reaction is bimolecular.
127.
Average rate of reaction:
The average rate is defined as the ratio of change in the final concentration of reactants and the initial concentration of reactants over the entire time period of reaction.
Average rate=\(\frac{-[Final \space concentration \space of \space reactants - Initial \space concentration \space of \space reactants}{(Change \space in \space time)}\)
R \(=\frac{-\left(\left[A_{2}\right]-\left[A_{1}\right]\right)}{\left(t_{2}-t_{1}\right)}=-\left(\frac{\Delta[A]}{\Delta t}\right)\)
[A]1 = Concentration of reactant A1 at time t1
[A]2 = Concentration of reactant A2 at time t2
Instantaneous rate of reaction:
The rate of reaction at any particular instant during the course of reaction is called as instantaneous rate.
Instantaneous rate \(=(\text { Average rate })_{\Delta t \rightarrow 0}\)
Rate of the reaction \(=\left(\frac{-\Delta \mathrm{A}}{\Delta \mathrm{t}}\right)\)

(i) In transition series, as we move down from Ti to Zn, the standard reduction potential E0M2+/M3 value is approaching towards less negative value and copper has a positive reduction potential, i. e. elemental copper is more stable than Cu2+.
(ii) E0M2+/M value for manganese and zinc are more negative than regular trend. It is due to extra stability arises due to the half filled d5 configuration in Mn2+ and completely filled d10 configuration in Zn2+.
(iii) The standard electrode potential for the M3+/M2+ half cell gives the relative stability between M3+ and M2+.
(iv) The high reduction potential of Mn3+/Mn2+ indicates Mn2+ is more stable than Mn3+.
(v) Mn3+ has a 3d4 configuration while that of Mn2+ is 3d5. The extra stability associated with a half filled d sub-shell makes the reduction of Mn3+ very feasible \(\left[\mathrm{E}^{\circ}=+1.51 \mathrm{~V}\right]\).
